Guild Seals?!

[SebClem]

So I need lots of guild seals, quickly.

I've read you can actually get guild seals by running past people?

I'm King at the moment, but still have to interact with people to get guild seals. Do you need full morality to get them by running past people?

Also - with relationship quests, can you save up like 5 from each town and then go the locations and complete all 5 at the same time? Its killing me doing them one at a time....

u can team up with other player and u get more guild seals

You can receive guild seals when you run past some people depending on how their reaction towards you has changed - be it fear or love, it makes no difference. It's not a huge amount though.

You can do more than one relationship quest at a time - I've done 8 at once in the same place. Don't try and marry them all at once though because they can get annoyed

Interacting to the max (i.e. Best Friends or Love) with people will get you Guild Seals depending on how much they offer - pulling RT whilst interacting with a person will let you know how many Guild Seals they can offer you for pursuing a relationship with them.

Also, grinding is a slow but steady way of getting the seals too. Running in and out of Silverpines, Mistpeak or Mourningwood will spawn you tonnes of Balverines and Hollowmen. Also the Reliquary will yield a lot of enemies and Shifting Sands is packed with them (furies and those weird summoned thingies).

Took me a long time to get all the seals I needed to unlock every chest on the Road To Rule but it's do-able; just do every side quest you can, interact with everyone you meet and kill everything in sight. Don't forget all town guards you kill go towards Guild Seals as well, although obviously it will harm your morality to do so.

Ah - I don't have live set up so can't Co-op...

Awesome, I didn't realise you could see how many Guild seals people can offer you! Am yet to revisit Aurora anyway so need to go over there to see if I missed anything! Was quite funny when I tried to marry a barmaid and I could only be best friends with her, I clicked RT and it was like 'Chatty, Barmaid, Lesbian' or something like that, i was like 'ah... thats why'.

Could do with some good Balverine tips, I'm fine taking them one on one as I can shoot away and roll to my hearts content, its just when theres 3 or 4 and they jump on you all the time! Too quick for magic but close quarter battle with balverines tends to give their advantage with they're crazy long arms.

One point I was fighting with Balverines and thinking 'They're not coming close to me, this is brilliant, killing them off nice and quick' then I realised that there were about 3 or 4 soldiers getting smashed while I was picking the monsters off one by one from the safety of a good distance!

Thanks for the tips.

Wish I had that option but I had to do it single player (no Gold )

But yeah, if co-op brings in more seals than single player, go for that option definitely

Everyone has different strategy for Balverines but one that seems to universally have an effect is combining Force with Shock and using it to knock them back and keep them rooted for a few seconds with the lightning bolts. It takes a huge chunk of health off and makes them easier to dispatch afterwards. Keep rolling out of the way if possible but if they've got you fairly cornered, use melee to indulge in as many finishing moves as possible. When they get too close and you're cornered, use your spells to give you some breathing space.

Even just quick use of magic can help, although if you have the time charging it up is obviously going to be more beneficial. Sometimes using ranged weapons in close quarters can make your character kick enemies away and then shoot - again, giving you space. In all cases, pick off the White Balverine first as he's usually the hardest of them all and takes a little longer to kill. The others will go down in one or two heavy hits depending on how levelled up your skills are.

also - Sometimes using ranged in close quarter ends up in some epic finishers.

Like climbing on the shoulders and shooting the enemy in the back of the head, its almost beautiful!
