    Okay, I seriously think I'm stuck in the game. I just returned from the Isle of Despair with the location of the Wheel Clan on my map. I need kathorn crystal spectacles in order to see the entrance.

    The problem is that I can't find ANY kathorn crystals and I didn't grab the dwarf's pair when I had the chance. I can't go back to the isle of despair.

    i have literally CLEANED OUT every single dungeon on my map and sold everything.

    i'm hoping someone knows a place to buy kathorn crystals... however I doubt such a place exists.

    haalp!

    You can use teleport to go back to the Isle of Despair.

    You will meet an NPC that can deliver you to the Wheel Clan. Have him in your team.

    The isle blocks teleport...

    Therefore Thorvald is also unrecruitable.

    I'd try banging around in the sewers...

    I'm not sure if teleportation is blocked in the Isle of Despair but I really think the dwarf there can join your team. I first ask him if where can I find that glass thingy then he told me nowhere but the dwarves can make one (or unless you have it in your schematics) so I ask him to join and help him return then he says yes but object because he is needed in the island and after more persuasion, he joined my group.

    Only if you have the schematics, because there is no way to get back up the island for sure. you can visit the ancient shipreck north along the coast of Ashbury to rob some deadates of the crystal, only at night. (if you haven't been there!)

    : (

    Did the ship wreck already. :sad:

    Ancient maze, outta there.

    Bellerogrim's Lair, everything dead.

    Black Mountain Clan, clean as a whistle

    Tarrant Sewers, yep

    Haunted Castle in Ashbury, The Lord of the Damned started running away from me

    why did I have to be so thorough?? I should have said to myself, "Okay, it only gets you like, 50 gold. why the hell do you want to carry EVERY SINGLE ONE down to town to sell them??" DAMN!!! I think the only alternative is to start over again, which I guess isn't such a bad thing, but I was level 42! Its going to hurt to just abandon my character like that.

    anyways, tell me if you find a way, 'cause I'm stumped. Anyone know of any dungeons that I didn't list?

    I forgot to mention about the boat. You're suppose to buy a boat in BlackRoot but it is a bit of expensive. I'm not sure if you can use it to go to Isel of Despair.

    There are lots of caves and dungeons in the games.

    Ancient Ruins
    The Old Lagoon
    Cave of Voices (not sure of the name)
    mysterious location
    A Wolf Cave
    Kree
    The Ruby Glade (pretty hard)
    Elven Ruins
    and more...

    Thanks alot to everyone who posted in this thread trying to lend me a hand.

    I didn't know about Kree, so I went there and guess what... 1 Kathorn Crystal. yay!

    Thank you so much, I couldn't have done it without you! Now I'm merrily on my way to Qintarra.

    Actually, I found more than 80 locations. There are some locations not listed there like for example the Ruins of Szabo. Also, I found several locations without descriptions and/or with wrong spelling.

    Nice.

    Any chance I could convince you to send me the ones that are missing from our own database? I'll put up a "Thanks to Friend_Al_23" on the page, of course. :smile:
