Ancient Maze Dilema

hey folks,,,,,,,,,,How do you get the sword (if you can) that is in the middle of a closed in are towards the middle of the maze?

I have sat there and wondered how to get it. Looking for stones to use to climb the wall, finding some kind of secret opening, or is it just a teaser?

Thanks

No can do. There was supposed to be a "Walk Through Walls" spell, but it didn't make the final cut.

Some have said that it is reachable by the Map travel & sudden stop method, but they also say it wasn't realy worth it.

It is reputed to be an Arcane Sword.

 

...which you can find plenty in the game- on Stringy Pete and some of the Tulla mages. Now, if it was an Arcane Great Sword...

 

figured as much shadygrove bug not fixed.

As per arcane sword I got one in the tarant sewers along with that damn hexed sword.....hehehehh

Good for you. I rarely find one I don't have to buy. A fine Vergil weapon if it isn't your cup of earl grey.

 

Yeah but virgil never gets strong enough to use it!

Without a shield, & perhaps with the aumlet that gives ST +1 & other stuff. I'll have to look, but I think he meets the MSR OK without the shield.

 

he has to be 13 str and he stays at 9 from what I have seen

It's amazing what a Strength of Earth spell can do for him.

 

I think Virgil is too weak. Of all magick followers only Dante gets strong enough for an Arcane sword. The best weapon for Virgil is a Filament sword, it does impressive damage (more than the Sword of Air), and sometimes I wonder if it even has MSR requirement. Even Perriman and Geoffrey with their ST6 can use it.
P.S. Arcane swords and axes are indestructable, they don't get damaged when hitting hard objects, arachnids, automatons, Seething Masses, Ore golems and so on. Pity I can't say the same about Arcane leather. When I fight Fire elementals, I'm forced to strip and rely on Shileld of Force for protection...
