Tips and Misc
- The life trees can be upgraded to produce more energy, but at the cost of some of your gathered energy.
- Despite the dialog saying that the cost for upgrading life trees is 80 energy, the actual cost of an upgrade is 50 energy.
- The life trees and defense trees can be restored when destroyed, at the cost of some of your gathered energy.
- The defense trees can be upgraded to be more resistant, at the cost of some of your gathered energy.
- Two different levels of Vine Horrors can be purchased at the Great Tree for some of the energy you have gathered.
- The challenge doesn't start until you speak to the Great Tree, giving your party time to get in and buff up.
- The top left path is the "Western Path", which makes everything on that side the "Western <name>" when the DM calls out the attacks.
- The middle path is the "Central Path"
- The Bottom right path is the "Eastern Path"
- Each life tree generates 1 point of energy, while the Great Tree generates 1 itself, so losing all the life trees will not end the production of energy.
- This version has Drow Wizards instead of Necromancers.
