Preparations for a walkthrough

[Handel]

Hey everbody,

I have a question redarding Ascold quest.

Trader ask my to found mummy powder. I found it and bring it to him.
He say give it to Ascold.
Ascold give 30 k money and ask me to search three indian items.
Where can I find this items? I try it by the street traders but without sucess.

Thank in advance for your help.

The translation of the item description is extremely bad. You may already have some of those items and to not recognize them. You can buy them all from the Morgan secretary for 1,000,000 gold. Very bad deal moneywise but you can just see which items exactly are needed and reload. Besides by buying them you can find them randomly in the treasures, and surely in COAS and in Tenotithlan.

Where is Morgan's Secretary? In order to talk to him, is a completed quest required?

Where is Morgan's Secretary? In order to talk to him, is a completed quest required?

In Morgan's residence in Port Royal, IIRC.

<b>Solutions:</b>


<b>Tenochtitlan quest</b>
Go to Moskito Shore west of "Lake Texcoco". If you own the game legally, you should have a map of the caribbean.
Meet the Spanish survivor and continue. When reaching the lake, Montezuma will have a chat with you.
In order to disarm the fire trap, you need to find 2 totems (scene before lake texcoco: in the grass; Portobello outskirts: go left twice and look around) and place them near the dam or you need 1 totem in the water to the left of the dam. This totem is used on the other side of the dam, so use potions to survive the warm welcome.

Later you need to find 10 totems (Seaward, this is stupid, boring and repetitive. Are you working for EA?)

Totem 1: Bermuda, Broken washbasin - swim around the ship
Totem 2: San Juan del Norte beach
Totem 3: Marigot cave
Totem 4: Port of Spain, random merchant
Totem 5: Fort-de-France, Dungeon, at the end
Totem 6: Tortuga, random merchant
Totem 7: Willemstad, residence, column
Totem 8: Hispaniola, in the Lighthouse of Santo Domingo
Totem 9: Santiago, torture chamber under church
Totem 10: Inca Temple, right side near a bush

Those 10 totems have to be placed on 10 platforms which can be found inside the 2 Aztec pyramids with the 5 doors. Every single door leads to a room with 3 Aztec warriors and a platform where you can put the totem on.
When all totems are placed correctly, you can enter the Temple of Great Life Force. There you have to fight Aztec warriors untill you reach the end. There you will find the Jade skull. Take it and Mictlantecuhtli, the god of the dead, appears and challenges you to a duel. Kick his ass! If you defeat him, he allows you to possess the Jade skull and tells you some info about Montezuma.
Then leave. Montezuma will await you on the dam and wants the skull. Kill him. Take his Maquahuitl weapon and leave.

How come you didn't tell us how to get the powerful weapon inside the temple of the white gods?

No matter. <b>I'll<b> Tell you.

Off to the left of the temple of great life force, there is an L-shaped structure with lots of columns. Go inside. You'll see a pit with water in it. Swim to the other end. Hey, what's this? You're underwater! And without a fancy diving suit, too. You only have about 70 seconds of air so you have to hurry. The place is a real maze, so it will take several tries to get to the end, but you'll know you're there when you come to a doorway that goes off the the left and right. Go right. You will come into the room you killed the god of the dead in, but you're surrounded by columns so you can't get out of your little space. Take the totem from the box at the top of the stairs. Now you have to go back through the underwater maze. I recommend saving the game first.

Once outside again, go back into the temple of great life force. The bad guys will be back, so terminate them with extreme prejudice. Go back into the area where you killed the god. There's baddies here too again, so take them out...and I don't mean dinner and dancing. Now, stand at the bottom of the stairs that lead to the platform where you found the skull, facing the stairs. Turn left. There is a slightly raised platform ahead of you, just like the ones in the small temples where you placed your 10 totems. Go to it and place the totem inside. Turn 90 degrees right. Run down and open the box at the end of that hallway. It's the obsidian knife!

Go back outside, and up the stairs of the temple of white gods. Circle around the cylindrical top part and place the obsidian knife into the receptacle. Go back around to the door and enter the temple of white gods. Walk up to the glowing platform until the hand icon appears.

Enjoy your butt-kicking new weapon!

Good one, Sharks Prize!
Aye, Fred Bob took dat awesome weapon wid him on his visit to de CoAS!
Sure hepped in dealin' wid dem Kaspers an' Narwhals! :

 

[Takeda-One]

Nope. I have no idea wher the problem is.

 

[Greyfoot]

Ok I just got back to the game 3rd time around and I found a little random(actually two)quest during the beginning of the Morgan plot.
I haven't found it anywhere so I thought I post it.

Prison Profits:

When you arrive to Port Royale with a fellow on your ship who suppose to meet with Morgan you are thrown to jail immediately. After the short cutscene with Morgan you are free to go but not so fast. There are numerous cells all along to the exit on both sides so go ahead and check them. Some of them will be empty, others got prisoners lying around(can't talk to them) and some prisoners are just babbling around. However one of them could start a random quest with the above title.
Well the thing is he is either asking you to deliver a letter to his comrades who are apparently holed up in town(you got 2days for this) or he wants you to free him. Now the first case is simple: you either agree or not, but the second is much more complicated: you got 3options:
-decline his offer(which is the best thing to do if you want to save yourself a lot of time and reloading and.... oh well just let that scumbag rot you'll find out soon why)
-accept it and try to cut and shoot your way out of the fort(the prisoner can't fight and will go down from one or two swing easily)
-accept it and try to bail him out(you go to the prison guards boss and try to bail him out.I guess its success rate is random if he committed serious crime like burglary or murder your plea will be useless and I wasn't able to free him this way)
If you planning to cut through the fort then good luck it'll take a lot of effort not get yourself and him killed and your best bet will be to moor your ship at the lighthouse before you attempt it. I only managed to free him by running away from the fort with him right behind me but still hard.Now I forgot to mention that his part of the bargain is his secret stash in a cave usually in the Cayman Island which he offers you 50-50. So get him to your ship in one piece try to loose the pursuing ships(since your rep with England will plumet every ship in the vicinity of the lighthouse will attack you)and head for your reward.Once you reach the cave you'll notice he will run towards you to tell you the great news: his bloody stash has been found by someone else (or more likely there was no stash at all).What do you do now?
Yo man legs it so turn around calmly, pull out your pistol and shoot the bastard in the back
Congratulations you've done it and by now you probably got a few thousand piasters bounty on your head

Now if he asks you to find his pals instead its way easier and more fruitful(is it?).
All you gotta do is run back to Port Royale and look for the house just on the corner where Morgan's house is.Go inside don't mind the house's owner head upstairs and into the room. If everything's fine you should be approaced by two handsome robbers and after a short conversation you either give them the letter and they give you a small reward-like 2k-or they decide to cut you into pieces just for fun, so defend yourself and kill them cheerful chaps.
Either way your logbook will be updated so that's it you've done it whooo-hoooo!

I can't stress it enough it is a random quest so it may not happen at all so make sure you save before you thrown into jail.
Good luck.

Oh one more thing! There's a major bug in this quest-in case you are given the later task just make sure you save right after you talk to the prisoner because when you enter PR the two bandit may not spawn in the house upstairs! If that happens just reload as many times as needed, they will be there.

:gday
Greyfoot

Edit: It seems this quest can be randomly obtained in every prison or during any event when you are thrown to jail i.e. french gg mission delivering letter to curacao.
Last night I went to Havana prison to find Rock the Brazilian(I know hes in Santiago now) and got the same quest.I promised the prisoner nothing but to speak with the jailor and guess what.
His crime was minor thievery so I could release him for 3k then we sailed to Dominica went into the grotto and voila: his stash was there 206k piasters.
Whoo-hoo! Happy days!

[blackice]

Also, I have been unable to use Leongt's suggested solution to the weapons quest (the smuggler in the tavern never showed up for me).

[Captain Maggee]

I have a rather simple question.Where exactly is the totem on San Juan del Norte beach found? I spent like an hour or so, searching but to no avail. <img src="http://forum.piratesahoy.net//public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

Also, where is the inca temple for the last of the ten totems?

And last but not least, the totem that is supposed to be somewhere around Porto Bello. Where is it?

Well its more than 1 i guess. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

Anyway I'd be thankful for some help! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />

Happy gaming!!

P.S.: What's the deal with the 3 skulls? Where do I get the remaining two(I have the blue)?

P.S.S.: I'm playing Dutch with Espinoza and I'cant find Trust. I've been on nearly every island.
Any suggestions?

Thanks again!<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
san juan del norte- facing the ocean turn left and go swimming around the rocks there, its on a little island of its own
Portobello- leave the town, go left twice, its in that big area somewhere. Helps to turn them into ladders
Inca temple- I can't remember what beach to land at off the top of my head, sordid or one of the other guys will know.
For dutch go to willemstead, trust is always at your nations capitol.
the three skulls- you get two of each color (red, blue, white) on the CoAS quest in dexters chest.

What do you mean "turning them into ladders"?

isn't camaxtli the one that goes in the stone located at the end of the bridge. if you just go straight ahead from the bridge towards the femple of white gods!?

 

[UndefinedM]

Hey everyone. I'm trying to do Tenochtitlan quest right now, but i'm having some problems with all those totems. Namely, number 2 and 10. Problem is, i'm not sure i'm finding the correct area where these 2 totems should be.

So, is San Juan del Norte beach the one near the town with the same name on Puerto Rico? Or is it somewhere else on the mainland?
And, where the frak is the Inca Temple? I have absolutely no idea where to look it for

Any info in the form of "close to this or that city" would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks everyone

There are two different mirrored "L- shaped" structures of columns containing identical basin mazes leading to
a chest - where only one of which is intact and operatable. First after several tries I discovered this and it was the wrong one I happened to visit all the time. (Thought I had made a mistake letting some other
guy looting the chest before I was there. I.e the same place but different chest
conditions, I guessed. )

Maybe this has been mentioned earlier here.

I was there newly myself and had the same difficulties as you.

1) "San Juan del Nortel" is at Nicoragua and has a corresponding "Sail to" address. (Totem is far inside cave at beach)


2) The Inka Temple is reached from "Sail to" address "Amatrice shore" south of
Belize. (Totem near cliff to the right of Temple)

If I am not mistaken.

The story of Isabella:
1.Quest starts after talking with Attilla on Bermuda (do not use fast travel, just keep walking in settlement and you will find him sooner or later)
2.Go to San Juan, go to Isabella house, speak with her husband, speak with her, go to store, go to church, go to her home.
3.Go to Cumana. In tavern you will find captain of her's brother ship. Speak with him. (I do not remember, maybe you need to talk to tavern owner first)
4.Back to San Juan, speak with them. Rest until night. Go to her house, kill those guys(you may use officers). LOOT HER BROTHER's body. You will need those notes in point 8. Speak with Salvatore. Run from town. (you do not need to kill soldiers in house).
5. Bermuda, speak with tavern owner about Attillla. He will tell you, that Attilla bought house in the city, its next to tavern. Speak with your friend.
6. Go to Isabella house and kill everyone inside(I am not sure if you need to do this point, but I made it)
7. After two months meet again with Attilla(you have date in your logbook)
8. Save game and go to Portobelo. That was difficult for me, because brig had different name that the one Attila told me.. Anyway finally I just entered sea near Portobelo and boarded brig.
9. Go to Portobelo town and in one of houses prepare for battle. There are two guys, take good position to fight one by one, otherwise the second guy will be attacking you from behind..
10. Go to Belize, enter one of the houses and speak with Isabella cousin. Exit house, Isabella will speak with you.
11. Go to Bermuda again, speak with Atilla.
12. Go to Belize, speak with Isabella cousin. Before continuing sell/place in your ships chest all not needed staff, quite good loot awaits Go outside the city, then turn left and turn left. Enter the cave. (It is a cave with a ledder.) Find guy and kill him. Speak with Isabella and kill Salvatore.
13. After a month go to San Juan(I was on time, but I do not know, maybe you can be late). Speak with Isabella, sleep until morning, save before church. When bad guys enter you will need to block way to Isabella, otherwise they will kill her. Try to fight one by one. After fight speak with Isabella and then speak with Governorn. At least! You can go to bed <img src="http://forum.piratesahoy.net//public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bow.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="bow.gif" />
14.(WARNING) Isabella will ask you to bring 20000plasters to home each month, I gave her 500000, so I hope I can forget about her for 2 years.. She will also ask you to stop being a pirate <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> I do not know if she checks it in anyway, cause I have just finished playing.. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/buds.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="buds.gif" />

Any ideas what happens if you accidently let her get captured, will she reappear in the game or did i just loose a potentially money grabbing wife?

Thanks mate, those info were great i found both totems and i'm done with that quest now. Only problem is that i'm stuck with another
But i'll write about it in the morgan questline topic since it's morgan related.

 

[skodarap]

I decided to put up a little site with all the quest info that scattered all over the forum...either in this thread or in other threads...so at least everything's in one place now.

Anyway, here's the link: http://sites.google.com/site/skodacoas/

Mentioned all the authors of walktroughs that were posted here...but, feel free to pm me with any addition to it or if I missed anything etc etc...

Cheers
