I've never had two orbs after the fight with him (except when I've got the fake orb).
The one Tannen drops is the original Orb as far as plot goes, its just that the code deletes the original orb when you give it to him/he steals it and the new one has a different quest trigger when you pick it up.

Just because the game says there is a new trade route, that doesn't mean said trade route wasn't opened by forcibly taking the Orb from you and making a copy or three first. :P

My preferred method of transporting multiple people through a farportal would be to place the Orb at the centre of the portal and trigger it and stand back.

@ Grey those dialogues look nicely and would add some flavour to the game, thx

i think the east would also improve alot in terms of game feeling if every boss (4 tribe bosses, orc mother, shadow crypt boss) would get a popup dialogue like the final bosses have - characterize them a little more imo - just a suggestion.

unfortunately my english is too bad for this

Those are good ideas, i agree, the Orcs Pride leaders are rather important characters, and having some kind of (even simple) announcement/dialogue would certainly increase the atmosphere like in the Sanctum battle.

Additionally, from the lore gathered they seem to hate each other, a nice touch could be them thanking your for killing their most hated colleague too.

I could imagine additionally those orc leaders having a special dialogue when the player character is of the same class as them, some kind of personnal challenge .

Having your actions impact on the world a bit more is always a good thing.

I really like the idea of the Pride leaders calling you out on your class. It'd be a nice little thing to include, I think.

In addition, perhaps an alternate (and far more spiteful) Slasul dialogue if your class is an elf? Considering why there are Naga in the first place, I don't think unjustified.

Rak'shor
  • If undead: "So the tales are true. A self-willed <race>. It is almost a shame to destroy you, but I shall learn many secrets from your remains."
  • first: "Welcome, <Race>, to the heart of my power. Did you think it was easy getting here, yes? You did so because I, Rak'shor, willed it. Now you will die, and I will have many questions to ask of your remains."
  • killed Gorbat: "Ah, the slayer of Gorbat! I shall raise your corpse along with his to me my champions, and lead my army or dracozombies! None will stand before us!"
  • not first but not Gorbat: "Scourge! You have come to the heart of Rak'shor, and here you will meet your end. I shall raise your corpse to be my champion, and bring low all who oppose our might!"
Gorbat
  • cleared Room of Death: "My glorious dragons! You murdered them - with cowardly trickery, no doubt! I will burn your corpse to ash and scatter it on the Five Winds! TO ASH!" (lets say the orcs have five winds because five prides...)
  • If wyrmic: "<Race>, you make a mockery of the sacred path. This will not stand! Prepare to die!"
  • first: "Ah, you must the Destroyer's Bane. You will find me a more dangerous foe by far. He will be avenged!"
  • killed Vor: "Scourge of Rak'shor, they call you, <race>. You may have bested the false power of arcane magic, but before the true might of dragonkind, you shall not stand. Prepare to die!"
  • not first but nor Vor: "Scourge! You have come before the champion of dragonkind, and here you shall meet your end! Vengeance shall be ours, glory shall come to the Pride of Gorbat!"
Vor
  • cleared Room of Death: "YOU! Do you know the effort, the YEARS of preparation... I will DESTROY you, I will FREEZE you and SHATTER your corpse, I will BURN you to NOTHING!"
  • first: "You are the one from the west, I presume. No doubt you are dangerous, but now you have overreached. Your trail of destruction ends here, <race>."
  • killed Grushnak: "<race>! They call you the Scourge of Grushnak - as if slaying that brutish fool and his deluded followers were a particularly impressive accomplishment. Now you shall learn what TRUE power means!"
  • not first but not Vor: "<Race>! They call you the Scourge - but you shall not be named the Scourge of Vor! You shall not deny us our vengeance!"
Grushnak
  • if Alchemist: "So! An alchemist, cowering behind <his/her> unnatural construct. It seems history repeats itself - but this, <race>, is no Athamaton. I shall smash your slave to broken bits and use them to beat you to a PULP!"
  • first: "Destroyer's Bane! You have come before Grushnak, mightiest of the four prides. You shall not leave."
  • killed Rak'shor: "So you are the one that slew that villain Rak'shor. For this I thank you. Still, you serve the Sun Wall, and you have done great damage to the prides. For this, you must die, and the west will pay for it's crimes. Vengeance will be ours!"
  • not first but not Rak'Shor: "So you are the Scourge of the West, <race>. Servant of the sun-worshippers, Destroyer's Bane. Your reign of death is come to an end, for you have challenged the Pride of Grushnak, the Heirs or Garkul!"
Ghoul never existed, this never happened!
