Issues

Secret Chapel bug

Restart from Lobby[7]

In the Canyon of the Grand Obelisk, there is a secret quest that gets activated after interacting with 3 pillars. If you leave the area after having activated only some of the pillars, it gets bugged. Go to the area, then go back to the lobby and then back into the game to fix this and reset the pillars (you have to do all of them again).

Easy anti-cheat error 10022

Disabling anti-virus before launching the game should fix this error.

Notes

  1. File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/680420/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (680420) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
