The Soli Key unlocks the small remaining area in the middle of  Sewer 1. This holds the Eye of the Golden statue that is in the Eagle men camp.

Trap door? Oh, well... thanks! I'll look out for it...

Although right now I'll have to start from scratch because my files all got
corrupted! ARGH!

Every time I try to get the bone key, my Visor resets... *sigh*

Level 10 characters! All gone...! *sobs*

Have you found a door that you can not open because you are not strong enough? 
If so, find someone strong. If not find the door... The treasure you seek is
behind that door.

 Thanks for the reply Larry.  After your post, I went back and check all the characters again, including the Inn.  I originally had it kept at the Inn with one of the characters there, but as I was having trouble getting to skull in the Crypt 3, even with all my torches out, I guessed at needed certain items on hand if nothing else to "trigger" something in the software.

Sewer 2.

with a chest behind it and an unlocked gate on your right. When you
go through the unlocked gate, a button apears at (3,14). Press it to
move the chest to the unlocked gate so you can get the gold key. Use
the gold key at (3,7).

My partner and I bought two licenses of DBII so we could play

if tortured by watching George Bush speeches, would not be able to
say where I found the Gold Key.  The walkthrough seems clear about
this, but I just looked at his game and the area mentioned in the
walkthrough is very empty.  He's already done the trap at Sewer 2
(3,14) and has no Gold Key.

Could it have been stolen?  Do the chests load randomly?  Or, just
like the daily quest for his wallet and keys that he swears have
vanished into the quantum singularity that bounces around the house,
could he have misplaced it?  Is this even more evidence that his
reality is separate from everyone else's?  Please help.  He's getting
all cranky and I may have to smother him in his sleep.

I did finally kill him. I did not realize Caleb and Unger could cast Near

foe even when he did not retreat.  But many times he retreated and my big

he kept up with the hits.  Ta'Kall eventually was Ta' Killed.  Thanks for

Subject: Re: [DragonBaneII] Ta'Kall Sucks

I think your problem is that Heric is under armored. I believe by level 11
I have him down to
AC -3. I also think Caleb and Unger are a little light (I seem to remember
them being -6 and
-5 by now). Are you spending time in the NT armor shop? My "usual" party is
Unger, Tesser,
Heric, Ensir and Poe. Poe is much better at healing and I believe you
should consider having
him in your party. I believe this is the toughest battle in the game. The
only time I've had a
character die is battling Ta'kall (during playtest he was known as Gargon)
but that was at level 8,
which is too early for this battle. My strategy for Ta'kall is usually to
wipe out his group of friends,
ignore anything he summons and use near foe by both Unger and Heric to get
him up to 10'. Poe
uses a bow except when he has to heal the group. Ensir casts Mana Spirit
unless he has to
renew the Wind Mage and the three front men attack with hand weapon bow and
hand weapon. If
Ta'kall moves away, I have Heric cast near foe because he goes before Unger
and tell Unger to
swing assuming Ta'Kall will be in range. I admit I usually shun the
multiple target weapons in
favor of max damage per foe single foe weapons.

Believe it or not, you can win this battle at level 13 with NO fighters
(just the Sorcerer, Thief and
Necromancer), but you might want to save that challenge for your next
playthrough :-).

   Use Caleb or Unger to cast the Near Foe (or both of them). If I recall
   correctly, Heric can cast it as well.  My usual tactic is to drag the
   scaly pest to 10' on the first turn by having everyone that can do a Near
   Foe, and ignore the Dark Knights as long as Ta'Kall is in range.  I'm
also
   not sure that just a single magic user is sufficient here - I haven't
   tried that configuration (I'm currently running 2 fighters, three magic
   users, and having a grand ol' time - except for running like heck to get
   into the sunlight after every major battle).

What you might try doing is to completely delete DB2 (I know: bummer) download it again from Mythologicl and re-install it and then put in your license key. Sound to me that you might have a coruppted file. That's hapened to me on ocasion and a re-download etc, etc has cleared the problem up. I know it's a pain, but the game is worth it. I'm playin DB2 on an M505 with no problem. However, I'm playing fomr the main Palm, not the memory card

Hi.
 
This is probably too late...
 
The gold key is at (5,13) in sewer 2 according to my notes. If I remember the location
correctly you face the wall to the east at (3,14) with a cell on either side. I thought the
unlocked one was the one on the north. But the walkthru indicates it's the one on the south.
You need to enter that room completely for the button to appear. Once it appears it does
not disappear, so you can go back and see if the button is still there. Once pushed, the
chest moves to the unlocked side and you should be able to go in and get the key.
 
According to the game creators it is IMPOSSIBLE to lose, drop, have stolen or destroy a
key once you have it. You cannot even put it down. You can leave it on a character that
you drop off at an Inn, but other than that, you cannot get rid of it, until you use it. If you use
it and forget that you did, of course, the door it goes to will open if you try it and if
you kick the keyhole, nothing happens...
 
If all else fails, give him your savegame!

with a chest behind it and an unlocked gate on your right. When you
go through the unlocked gate, a button apears at (3,14). Press it to

this, but I just looked at his game and the area mentioned in the
walkthrough is very empty.  He's already done the trap at Sewer 2
(3,14) and has no Gold Key.

Could it have been stolen?  Do the chests load randomly?  Or, just
like the daily quest for his wallet and keys that he swears have
vanished into the quantum singularity that bounces around the house,
could he have misplaced it?  Is this even more evidence that his
reality is separate from everyone else's?  Please help.  He's getting
all cranky and I may have to smother him in his sleep.

I can think of three possibilities:
-    Either one of the people in your party has the segment and you didn't notice it (5 characters holding 10 items is 50 items to check. It's easy to miss one), or
-    Someone in one of the inns has it, possibly a dead character, or
-    There is a bug in the program. If this is the case, you'll have to email Jason or Gabe.
 
I always leave my segments with someone in an inn so I don't have to carry them with me the whole time.

I spoke to Kopos in the Centurian Frontier and he wants to wait for me to make room in my party. (I thought this was changed in one of the release versions like the strong man and Soli who just tag along now.) Anyway I went back to NT, dropped off Wythera, and came back and Kopos says: “Kopos is here and is ready to join your party.” I click “Invite,” and he says, “Your party is full. I will wait here until you make some room.”

 

How much room does he need?

 

Attached is my save game.

 

Thanks.

Hi.
 
This is probably too late...
 
The gold key is at (5,13) in sewer 2 according to my notes. If I remember the location
correctly you face the wall to the east at (3,14) with a cell on either side. I thought the
unlocked one was the one on the north. But the walkthru indicates it's the one on the south.
You need to enter that room completely for the button to appear. Once it appears it does
not disappear, so you can go back and see if the button is still there. Once pushed, the
chest moves to the unlocked side and you should be able to go in and get the key.
 
According to the game creators it is IMPOSSIBLE to lose, drop, have stolen or destroy a
key once you have it. You cannot even put it down. You can leave it on a character that
you drop off at an Inn, but other than that, you cannot get rid of it, until you use it. If you use
it and forget that you did, of course, the door it goes to will open if you try it and if
you kick the keyhole, nothing happens...
 
If all else fails, give him your savegame!
 
Craig :-)

---------------- from walkthrough --------------------
Sewer 2.

.....

•       If you stand at (3,14), there is a locked gate on your left
with a chest behind it and an unlocked gate on your right. When you
go through the unlocked gate, a button apears at (3,14). Press it to
move the chest to the unlocked gate so you can get the gold key. Use
the gold key at (3,7).
------------------------------------------------------

My partner and I bought two licenses of DBII so we could play
together.  I've already torn through this part of the game and, even
if tortured by watching George Bush speeches, would not be able to
say where I found the Gold Key.  The walkthrough seems clear about
this, but I just looked at his game and the area mentioned in the
walkthrough is very empty.  He's already done the trap at Sewer 2
(3,14) and has no Gold Key.

Could it have been stolen?  Do the chests load randomly?  Or, just
like the daily quest for his wallet and keys that he swears have
vanished into the quantum singularity that bounces around the house,
could he have misplaced it?  Is this even more evidence that his
reality is separate from everyone else's?  Please help.  He's getting
all cranky and I may have to smother him in his sleep.

but if you save at say level 20 and continue fighting without getting promoted, you can indeed
go as high as you like until you finally do choose to get promoted. the next formula is pretty
simple to figure out...

I believe there is no programmatic highest level - you can keep going up,
but you don't get more levels of spells - the 4 levels is it.  However, I
suspect that since you don't run into monsters much different than your
current level (I think it's within 6 levels of you), you'd run out of
things to do to get experience points about level 26 or so.

The hotsync does back up your game. Don't do another until you restore it. I'm not the expert, but I'd
delete the savegame file on your palm and then hotsync should bring back the most recent backup. You
might be able to load it directly through the desktop software for the Palm. The file you need to restore is
Drg2SaveMSRK.DrS2.
 
However if you are getting a load failed on every save game and can start over clean without a problem
that usually means somehow your "key" got corrupted and the game thinks you should be only allowed
on the first three demo levels. Verify that it is still correct Options dropdown list and checking
the License page -- reenter your key if necessary and that should allow you to run your saves again.

I've got 4.6M free in the main memory.  BTW: Whoever did the memory

expansion card doesn't just extend the base memory.  It would avoid
all of this application copying stupidity and would have prevented
Palm OS from repeating MSDOS design problems with base and extended
memory inflicted on users over 30 years ago.

And no, the restart after the abnormal termination doesn't work the
way you indicate.  It looks like I'm at the last place I exited in
SEVERAL saves ago.  While typing this, I tried to load any saved game
and got "Load Failed" on all of them.  When I exit and restart, I am
back at day one in the king's court and no saved games will load.

$30 and two weeks of playing and now I have to start over?  I'm

Make sure you have enough memory free.  The way Palm OS works, when an app
is run off of an expansion card, it has to copy the whole thing to main
memory.  This means you will need at least 1.4M free on your handheld's main
memory when you run DB2 from the card.

When you exit the game abnormally, and you restart, you will resume at the
last place you exited the game (it only saves your position when you select
save, or exit the game).  You could load a save game at this point though if
you have a newer one saved.

A *lot* stronger than that is needed.  You might go see if you can find
someone to help - go talk to some townsfolk and bartenders.  They're quite
sympathetic souls.  (Or scan back through the archives for spoilers).

Well, since they run on the Palm, you may need to open the Palm
installation program to download them to the Palm.  On the PC, it defaults
to firing up the Palm program Installer, but that may not be the case on
the Mac.  You need to set up the download, then sync.

Hope this helps!
