Playtesters' plea for help - Zantai's Last Secret

You guys have gone off the deep end with all this talk of levelling HC or obtaining all of the sets. That’s absurd.

Has anybody attempted entering the sarlacc when the ingame sun is at its zenith, and with the Wilhelm scream or fettan helm perhaps? Can’t hurt to equip them. I know people have discussed and tried the sarlacc already but nobody mentioned that the lore note said it’s enterable when the sun is at its zenith, seems like a forgotten detail. Top minds of reddit and all that. Lmao.

Can’t check myself because not inclined to just sit there over the course of an ingame day. Also at work. Someone want to sacrifice their patience for the cause?

Probably need to lead 100 of those Camel guys to the Maw to be eaten.

This would be so much about “calming down and counting”. Theres also an item about containing the excitement in the camel sands, and it’s blue.

That’s what Zantai said up until now, in chronological order I think:

[i]“I don’t think anybody knows what it is yet.
But I’ll tell you that there are some subtle clues in the game.”

“Really going down the rabbit hole of complexity, guys.
Just calm down, count to 100, and consider everything. ;)”

“You guys are being quite hardcore about this. It really is quite simple and about making the right connections near the end of the journey.”

“Mmm, no, I think it involves more of an adventure.”

“Really? I think I’ve already given substantial clues. :smiley:
The effort you guys are putting in is a real class act, but this secret is really much simpler than the direction you’re digging. Really,…”
[/i]
That leads me to believe the secret may have something to be with selecting some faction and talking with the right person (One idea would be Harkon - whatever his name - of the Order of the Vigil - is he there in the end of Forgotten Gods just for that Uroburuk dialogue?)

My other idea is selecting Hardcore, looking at the class selection for 100 seconds, selecting none and punching the first zombie I see. But I’m very sleepy right now and it’s very late, I’ll leave that to you guys to test. If it works, I call dibs, though I doubt it will.

There’s reference to holes, digging, counting down, and an adventure. If we’re to put any stock into Zantai being cheeky, the answer is the sarlacc + time of day.

If we are to take the hints at face value and assume he isn’t being cheeky, then my bet would be similar to your first point, but I’d put the money on daila’s disappearance. Harkon is still there and dialogue doesn’t really change.

I might try tonight but I can’t kill the crate of entertainment so idk how I’m gonna get wilhelm scream to test that aspect of it, to my recollection it drops from him right?

I think the excitement aspect of that is just a reference to the cauldron of excitement since the items in bonebleach are poo themed.

When Carmac talks to you he mention “Whether it was simply attracted to conflict or somehow a herald of dark times is unclear”.

Probably you guys already tried that (for sure) but anyone tried luring Callagadra to the Maw on the hottest time of the day?

I kited her around the pit for about half an hour, and nothing happened. How long is one in-game day btw?

I don’t think it’s about reaching the End of FG with a classless HC character, that would be more like a challenge and not a secret/riddle

Does anyone remember the guy that we save just before the AoM final boss, behind a crystal barrier? I dont remember to got any clue or hint to know who and where is he after AoM…

Not sure if this has been mentioned, has anyone checked to see if that Shrine of the Forgotten God location in Blood Grove has any connection?

Yeah, i’ve checked going trought all voids, talking to all NPCs in the game, shrines or locations that mentions to gods all of this with Chillheart in hands. Also tried to activate the glowing orb on Dangerous Domain just before Korvaak (wich looks like almost the same the orb that opens the portal to Crate Boss). Nothing…

I pop back through there at least once on each tour and haven’t noticed anything new there. It does seem like there ought to be something though.

Did anyone check tomb of korvaak in asterkam valley?

very strange, i gone there with 4 differente chars, 2 of them i did all FG quest and also got the stormheart before. With the other 2 chars i didnt FG quests and didnt got stormheart too…

With all of them i couldnt drop the stormheart (even not carrying in my inventory) and cannot acess the secret passage there, the loose torch couldnt be clicked anymore

It could be the end of the Korvan Expedition too, if we think about adventures. Or maybe the clues are in the lore about it.

hardcore

near end of journey

rabbit hole

100

I feel like we’re getting some clues here…

im following this thread

im still on epic, lv 85 on HC, not cus maybe is the mode to solve it, but yes cus i like it

but mmmm i wouldn like the reward to be only available on HC. mean, guess u get an item as last secret

an item only available on HC? mmmm no, i dont like the idea. if is only an achievement, thats ok

I imagine it’d make for a very interesting misadventure if Z had to explain the last secret to us. Or that there was no secret to begin with.

Well since nobody wanted to, I camped the sarlacc for an entire in-game day with the fettan helmet equipped and nothing happened. Tried pulling enemies too. I’m giving up on this whole Carmac’s hottest time of day thing. I have no idea what to do.
