Tips and Misc
- Minor bug: Zeleth has a unique sense of direction. Just ignore her directions and follow your nose (or the map).
- A few of the fights have Exploding Constructs; if you don't take them out quickly, they'll explode.
- After examining the apartment, the gang members outside can be dispersed in two ways: Talk to the Daask Poison-slinger immediately outside and use Diplomacy or Intimidation to talk your way out of a fight, or fight. If you ignore them and walk past, a fight will break out immediately.
- Down the first southern route, the crime scene is southeast. The southwest alley holds only an optional resident (and a collectible).
- Morko, with a chest, is encountered in the room with the (only) shrine.
- Lesstra is a non-hostile Medusa, located in a secret room off the southwest-most alley. Heroic: Secret Door (Search DC).
- There will be an ambush, either when you speak with her or reach the clues at the end of that alley.
- Optional: The last Resident (and a collectible) are down the short dead-end west of the final room.
- The Goblin boss, Irk, plants exploding mines as he runs around the room, similar to the end boss in Undermine. Keep your eyes on him and avoid the mines when planted.
