Thank-you for your help, Airy Smile

Alright so... what the hell?? Can the witch be fought at all? Getting teleported from the witches hut back to Spero really ruined my mining trip Sad

The end of this part doesn't really make sense.

Ages ago, when Ludovicus was but a mere boy, I found him wandering through the forest, nibbling all kind of herbs and weeds.
Since nobody was there to claim him, I took care over the boy, as he cerainly was intrested in herbs.
From that faithful day I trained Ludovicus as my apprentice. It was I
who tought him the secrets of brewing potions. Years passed by and
Ludovicus was very talented. I couldn't teach him anything new anymore.
He wanted to travel around, learn new secrets expand his knowlegde. I
gave him my blessing but not before I made him promise to return back
within two years, teaching me what he learned about alchemy.
Many years have passed now...I'm tired of waiting. Ludovius will remain here until he fullfilled his promise!

Is Ludovicus refusing to teach her about alchemy0?

Nope, you can't fight the Witch. He promised to return to her after two years and teach her what he had learned on his journey. He didn't, so she took him.

The list of demands:

Bring me 25 bread.
A Cheese Potion.
A Pig Boosting Potion.
A Fishing Potion.
8 Exeptional Herbs.

...... Holy crap, that is one expensive ransom! Does Ludovicus stay with you forever after you free him? Can the potions be of any quality?

The Witch can be attacked and even be defeated. You will just need to be faster then she can cast the spell...so if you want to defeat the Witch...be FAST!

Even I couldn't do that! Does it only take into account the Speed skill without followers (No First Strike ability either)

by anto_capone on Sun Jan 15, 2012 6:33 am

hmm, i have the highest speed skill in game and its still only like 6%... Razz

good enough?

by **Lord Arogandor** on Sun Jan 15, 2012 7:54 am

Speed or First Strike, both help. And its the total skill, including all your temporary effects.

by Axel Ackland on Sun Jan 15, 2012 4:56 pm

idk man when I fought the witch she zapped me right off the bat, I thought it was supposed to be part of the plot for the quest lol

by Marche on Mon Jan 16, 2012 1:49 pm

Yeah, the speed required is probably pretty high. I had a decent combat level back then too, 6 Speed and +15 Speed from my follower. Best to just fulfil her request Smile

by Axel Ackland on Mon Jan 16, 2012 2:10 pm

okay Aro, I think you're wrong here... I tried fighting the witch again, it doesn't even let me initiate combat, it teleports me before I even go to the fight.

I think you need a certain speed/first strike skill before you get to initiate combat, otherwise the witch casts the spell quicker then you can attack and you get teleported.

by **Lord Arogandor** on Mon Jan 16, 2012 6:10 pm

There is no actual fight, if you are acting to slow, you get zapped away by the Witch. If you are faster then the Witch can cast a spell, you already won combat.
Fighting a Witch is slightly different from fighting a bear. You must take out the Witch before she can teleport you.

Apart of that, I'm not certain, fighting & winning against the Witch will make you that happy.

Yes you will be able to bring Ludovicus home, yes you pillage her hut and yes...she is no longer available in the Witch Hut afterwards...

wow i never knew it went that far O_O

by Airy on Sun Jan 22, 2012 5:25 am

wait a minute, trashing the place and no witch?? So we cant swap herbs with her any longer. Axel stop this at once!

by **Lord Arogandor** on Sun Jan 22, 2012 6:29 am

The Witch will be there still for the other Seekers. Only Seekers who actually defeat the witch will find the witch removed from that place.

Once again, this option shouldn't be taken to lightly, this is only for the real bad and evil characters who love making chaos where order was ^^

Bad and Evil? She is an evil kidnapping witch! Killing her sounds like a noble and honourable quest, not an evil chaotic one.

Actually the witch is not evil at all. If you have read the story line it has been found that she took Ludo because he made a deal with her that he broke. So she is just in a way "collecting payment"

by Helfdane on Sun Jan 22, 2012 6:11 pm

So she is a mobster. Still evil. Kill her!

by Airy on Mon Jan 23, 2012 5:48 am

I think you guys missed the point of positively evil...
