Teso Witch Festival Walkthrough. TES Online - Return of the Festival of the Witches. Accelerate your experience gain and turn into undead

And here we are again on the ship, discussing a plan of further actions with his captain Megan. In the course of the previous assignment, it was possible to find out that Kirin Jindosh is behind the abduction of Sokolov - one of Delilah's most important associates, a brilliant scientist and inventor, whose intellect is quite comparable to that of Sokolov, but a sharp mind does not work for the good of people, but rather the other way around.

You still need to get to his estate, as always, however: the approaches are pretty well guarded, so traditionally you will have to try a little to just get to the mansion. During this mission, you can find six runes, one Alien Altar, eight amulets, four blueprints and six paintings at once. Before leaving on the mission, talk to Megan and Hypatia, the latter will be able to take the maximum possible supply of potion to restore mana.

Having set out on a boat and having arrived at the place, climb the steps upward, this is the Lower Avent location, you can traditionally immediately start collecting runes and amulets - for this, take out the Heart. We need to board the carriage, as in the last mission. Again, the crew is not so easy to reach, the station is guarded by a light wall, and in front of it there are also a handful of guards.

To the right of the station, in the courtyards in the basement, there is another black market outlet, which can again be robbed, but this time it will do without keys - by blowing up the wall from the other side. If you decide to do this, stock up on a tank of blubber, otherwise the two bandits who have already started such an operation did not have enough blubber. You can get to the place from where you can arrange an explosion through the balconies of the upper floors of the same high-rise building.

But our task is different, on the black market it is advisable to buy everything for which there is enough money, neither assembly tools, nor stun mines, nor grenades will be superfluous - everything will come in handy. By the way, the leader of one of the local gangs, Paolo, will also appear here, who will behave extremely insolently, and when you try to deal with him (put to sleep or kill), he will turn into a flock of rats. We will meet with him again, if desired, in the next task, but for now, having prepared, follow to the station of the "Aventa" station.

You can get inside the station both with the help of an assembly tool (reprogram the light wall so that it recognizes you as your own), and in more simple ways. The most convenient is to enter from the other side and climb onto the roof, there are openings in the roof through which you can freely enter. And there is also a rune in the backyard, however, with a high concentration of guards. In the station building itself, you can open the safe, if you bought a key to it on the black market, you can take an amulet, getting rid of a couple of enemies who have arrived, or you can just go on a carriage to your destination immediately.

It will not be possible to get to the mansion itself, as the crew is blocked by a door locked with a combination lock. The code can be found at one of the guards in the building on the left, on the top floor. There are also various useful things in the building. There are also runes with amulets nearby, collect with the help of the Heart. By the way, from here it is already possible to get to the Jindosh mansion even without a crew, but it is still easier to open the gates, since it is not a good idea to get back with Sokolov in your hands and drag him with you, jumping over the abyss.

Get the code from the door (it traditionally varies for the game, you won't be able to tell it), along the way getting rid of the interfering enemies, of which there is a rather large concentration. The light wall to the left of the building can be turned off on the second floor of the same building by pulling out the blubber tank there. Now you can search the buildings behind the light wall, where are the very runes with amulets, and from where you can jump to the Mechanical Mansion without the help of the crew.

One way or another, you will arrive at the same mansion. Probably you are even before the start Dishonored walkthroughs 2 imagined what it was - the location came out just enchanting, therefore its fragments were actively demonstrated in trailers before the release of the game. So, you went inside, before you a huge variety of options for moving towards the goal - levers are scattered throughout the mansion of not the smallest sizes, the activation of which rebuilds the mansion in the nearest rooms literally before your eyes. Each lever has two positions, so all rooms equipped with levers can appear in two different views.

And for the movement of all walls, of course, you need mechanisms, and for mechanisms you need space. So there is also a space behind the walls where you can move freely and this will not be a bug. So, you entered, you are welcomed - pull the first lever, go up the steps and talk to the owner of the mansion, who will easily recognize you. Therefore, it activates its main pride - the sentry soldiers.

Here we will dwell in more detail: these are real death machines, if you do not know them weaknesses... If you just try to cut with them, mindlessly swinging the sword, the outcome will be disastrous, most likely, because they have two limbs at once with long blades on each side, they hurt with electric charges, if you move away from a distance, they see you from the front, and behind, however, on the sides - a blind zone, which should be used.

In addition, the head is very vulnerable, one shot at it may be enough to be torn off, after which the robot becomes blind and orientates itself only by sound. Because of this, he attacks everything that moves, including other robots and your enemies. The latter is worse if you want to play the game bloodlessly. The simplest way eliminate the robot - approach it unnoticed at close range and press the strike button in the knee area as soon as you see the corresponding icon on the screen. And so many records are scattered throughout the mansion, from which you can learn about the weak nodes of the sentry soldiers.

Having coped with the first two robots that attacked you, look to the left - there is a light wall that can be turned off by sneaking under the floor and pulling out the tank with blubber there. You can get under the floor by slipping into the gap in the process of rebuilding the room, the rebuilding is traditionally triggered by a lever. You have quite a few options to get to the Jindosh's bedroom, collect amulets and other useful things along the way.

Jindosh's bedroom is nearby, you need to go through the corridor where the light wall was, then turn right. True, it will not work out so easy, you have to go to the next room and activate the lever there so that the room is rebuilt. If you go out into the room where the piano is, it is better not to pull the lever, although opponents will most likely do it for you. The lever changes the piano to a pillar of light that kills you at once - Jindosh modified Sokolov's device.

There are several exits from the room with the piano - one leads to the side of the place where the Sokolov marker is marked, and we will go there. This is an approbation room, which can be reached not only through the hall with the grand piano / discharge column, but also through the space outside the walls, which can be easily accessed through the windows. So you will reach the billiard table, there is again a lever that changes the configuration, activate it, go to the next room, again the lever, jump down, as soon as a gap appears in the place of the table.

Once in the approbation room, pay attention to the guard - if you play as Corvo, you can move into him, provided that you pump this skill to turn off the light wall that closes the corridor on the alternative path to Jindosh. Otherwise, it is better to stun him immediately. After going down to the labyrinth of durable glass on the steps, read the note on the table. Now you know a non-lethal way to eliminate Jindosh: as it turned out, he has an electroshock machine, with wrong setting able to erase the subject of almost all memory, with the exception of primitive cognitive functions.

There, in the labyrinth, a sentry soldier wanders, our ally Sokolov is also kept under guard there. The labyrinth is difficult to call difficult, there are buttons scattered on the floor, stepping on which you lower some walls and raise others. The main thing is to quickly deal with the sentry soldier. You will make your way to Sokolov, finding in the far left part of the room a button filled with boards. So make your way to Anton, talk to him, then pick up and carry your legs away from here by the same route that you came here.

Only this time, two more enemies will appear, who arrived by the elevator. You can bypass them, you can straighten out - as you prefer. It is better to take Sokolov somewhere closer to the exit from the mansion, if you have driven a carriage - put him right in the carriage, he will not go anywhere, and you yourself will return to Jindosh's soul. If the option with disabling the light wall in the approbation room somehow did not suit you by moving in, then return to the room where the piano / discharge column is, there you can climb through the ceiling to the upper part of the room, from there follow to the right - it is there that the already mentioned Jindosh's bedroom is located ...

There is also a mention of an electroshock machine, by the way. And yet another sentry soldier. In the back of the bedroom there is another lever that opens the exit to the balcony. Jindosh on the loudspeaker will assure that from here - best view to Karnak. We need to climb from the balcony to the ledge on the right far below. There you will also find a small hatch in the wall, open it, get out into a small room with an elevator.

It is here that the Jindosh laboratory is located, there are two sentry soldiers wandering in it, except for their owner and inventor. Do not cut off the heads of robots if you want to eliminate Kirin without killing. Nevertheless, it is nevertheless necessary to get rid of them. Jindosh himself should be put to sleep (with a dart or strangulation), and then put on the chair of his electroshock machine. The latter does not have enough energy, therefore, it is necessary to distribute its consumption so that the charge is enough to clear the memory of the inventor.

As the nights get longer and the year slips into darkness, the denizens of Tamriel challenge their superstitious fears during the annual Festival of the Witches. Join the fun when ghosts, demons and evil spirits ridiculed and worshiped through occult rites and outrageous costumes that are all the more convincing in a world where ghosts are real and the dead rise from their graves.

“Clockwork City is difficult to describe. Legend has it that the city is a miniature model of Tamriel, hidden under a glass dome, and its visitors, getting inside, magically shrink in size. Even more remarkable is the fact that the decoding of the name of the city, Clock-work City, is quite literal - everything here is part of a single “clockwork”. The city's houses, vegetation, and even the surrounding wilderness are all mechanical structures created by the genius of Sotha Sil. All of this leads to the fact that the exploration of the Clockwork City and its surroundings leaves players with a sense of surrealism around them everywhere. "

(If you completed this quest last year, repeat it not necessary!). With the help of the cauldron, you can also temporarily turn into undead.

Bosses will drop skull containers with good loot. This includes world bosses, dungeon bosses, arenas, outings, dolmens, public and group dungeons. Their special container skulls can drop motifs, boxes with masks, recipes for food and furniture, furnishings, and other nice things.

Unique items have been added to the Crown Store, such as a zombie horse and demonic masks

Festival of the Witches, the first in-game holiday event in The Elder Scrolls Online, started! Find out how to take part in this sinister Tamrielic celebration and what you can earn from it.

The Witch Festival, a traditional and ancient fall event, begins on the 13th of Frostbite (October 13th), opening the annual clash of religion and magic. Until the end of the month, all demonologists, sorcerers, lamias, magicians and thaumaturges gather in remote and secret places of Tamriel to indulge in the revelry of witchcraft, enchantment and summoning; and the evil creatures created or summoned by them can then terrorize Tamriel for an infinitely long time!

Spirits are agitated, undead rise from ancient tombs, and brave adventurers receive special tasks and, as a reward for completing them, all sorts of incredible things, frightening treasures and outstanding achievements.

To join the dangerous festival, visit the Crown Store and get the Crow Caller for free. Blow on it to let out a deadly birdcry, the sound of which will begin the quest "The Witchmother's Bargain". Upon completion of the quest, you will receive the Witchmother's Whistle, with which you can summon the witch-mother's cauldron. This industrious boiling vessel will transform you and everyone in your party into a terrifying-looking undead. The polymorph will last for two hours, but it can be used as many times as you like before the first day of the month of Sunset (November 1).

By killing bosses in the form of undead, you get a chance to get a robber's skull, opening which you will find special items of the Festival of the Witches, including masks (fall into the headwear section), special holiday culinary recipes, pieces of the Hollowjack crafting style, and more!

But keep in mind - when the festival is over, you can keep this sinister whistle of the witch-mother as a souvenir, but all its supernatural power will go away, so don't waste a day of this time-limited event!

Also, do not forget that all the tasks of the Festival of the Witches have been translated in the current one. Want to chat with the mother witch in Russian? Download fan localization and go in search of guts and pumpkins.
