- ULTIMA VI THE FALSE PROPHET, IBM VERSION 3.2
-
- This "walkthru" by Wyvern
-
-
-
- ULTIMA VI from Origin and Lord British is the sixth game in the Ultima
- series. Great improvements to the graphics are to be enjoyed in this
- game, but it does not compensate for the buggy program, poor
- documentation of the commands and little improvement in the actual
- plot/game itself.
-
- Be certain to set you game up properly or it will run very slowly.
-
- The screen is divided into four sections: map, status display, message
- area and command icons. The map area is so small that until you have
- played the game for a while it is far to easy to get disoriented. I
- would prefer a larger map area.
-
- Do NOT use the mouse! Although the docs (such as they are) says that
- mouse is supported it simply does not work well. The keyboard works
- fine once you get used to it. Commands are NOT well explained. It took
- me a couple of hours to figure out how to move items from one
- character to another, drop items, etc. Much attention was given to the
- compendium. I wish such attention had been given to the instructions.
-
- You begin the game with 3 other companions in Lord British's castle.
- You also begin IN a fight. This is not a nice way to start a game.
- Frankly at this point you are not familiar enough with the commands to
- handle a fight easily. My group managed to scrape through and Lord B
- did heal us completely right afterwards, but I think it was a poor
- game choice.
-
- Your beginning group is: Yourself, Dupre, Shamino, and Iolo. Talk to
- them. Iolo can gather or split all the gold in the party for you
- (would be nice if the docs told you these things rather than leaving
- it to the player to find out by random chance). Later in the game you
- will find others who are willing to join your group. Everyone who is
- willing to join you is not necessarily worth having join you. Some of
- them are poorly equipped, others have poor stats, or both. Having
- extra people in your group can sometimes be an advantage even if they
- are not the best. To ask them to join or leave your party, talk to
- them.
-
- Another word of caution: Many BUGS have been reported on this game. I
- see little excuse, save greed, for a game to be released to the public
- with such obvious bugs. Unfortunately this practice seems to be
- becoming the rule rather than the exception these days. You can send
- in your disks for replacements. You should also make backups of your
- character files often or you may find yourself restarting the game.
- Don't just overwrite your past backups, make different copies. That
- way you will have a chance to save what playing time you have put in.
- Some bugs can be avoided by limiting your inventory and later in the
- game reducing your party to the original four (avatar, Dupre, Samino,
- Iolo).

- _________________________________________________________________
-
- STARTING OUT:
-
- You begin the game in Lord British's castle. Lord B will tell you how
- the shrines are under the control of the gargoyles and must be freed.
- There is equipment for your use in the castle, in your room and in
- others. Talk to everyone you meet. Ask their name and job to get clues
- as to further conversation. Talk to the mage in L. B's castle. He will
- tell you about Iolo's book and to consult Mariah (in Lycaeum).
- _________________________________________________________________
-
- INVENTORY HINTS:
-
-
- Major BUGS are related to character's inventory so keep only what you
- need, food, reagents, and the like. Some items you will need to keep until
- they have been used. Once used, you can drop them (such as Rune Stones and
- pieces to the pirates treasure map) To WIN the game you will need:
-
- Vortex Cube (loaded with the 8 Moonstones)
- 2 Vortex Lens
-
- It will be very useful to have a strong character in your party carry
- a skiff. There are areas you will want to reach (such as Dungeon Shame)
- that you will be unable to reach without a skiff.
-
-
- _________________________________________________________________
-
- SEWERS: GOOD FOR GOLD AND EXPERIENCE
-
- In the potion laboratory in the castle, you will find a ladder to the
- sewers below the castle. This is the best place to start out your
- characters. It is larger than it looks. Use all ladders you find until
- you are familiar with where they lead. On level 2 of the sewers you
- will find an underground lake. Phoenix lives to the north of the lake.
- When you have gotten the PICKPOCKET spell, seek out Phoenix and take
- her thieve's belt.
- _________________________________________________________________
-
- SHRINES:
-
- After you have spent a little time in the sewers earning gold and
- experience, its time to visit the wide world. Your purpose at this
- point is to free the shrines from the hold of the gargoyles. The
- shrine of Compassion (east of Britannia) is the easiest to free early
- in the game having fewer gargoyles guarding the shrine. At other
- shrines, you may find it easier to cast invisibiity upon your avatar
- and have him/her free the shrine alone thus avoiding a fight with the
- gargoyles. To free a shrine USE the rune on the shrine and chant the
- mantra. The force field upon the shrine will be broken. Take the
- MOONSTONE!
- _________________________________________________________________
-
- EXPLORE AND GAIN EXPERIENCE:
-
-
- Here is a list of some of the major areas of interest in the game. As
- noted, some contain important clues or items while others are primarily
- good for gaining experience. Many of the caves are connected.
-
- Ant Mounds - Map piece piece, reagents
- Bucaneer Cave - minor items
- Cyclops Cave - Powder Kegs, gold
- Dungeon Covertous - minor items
- Dungeon Deceit - minor items
- Dungeons Destard - Dragon Eggs, major treasures
- Dungeon Hyaloth - Gargoyle scroll, ENTRANCE TO GARGOYLE WORLD
- Dungeon Shame - Map piece, gold, gems

-
- * Books: The book of lost mantras if shown to Wisps will get you the
- 8th level spell of Armageddon (which you do NOT need)
- The book Wizard of Oz when given to Lord British will get
- you some gems as reward.
-
-
- _________________________________________________________________
-
- KARMA:
-
- Karma is important in this game. To maintain and increase Karma, do
- not steal, return the rune of honor to Trinsic, do good deeds (such as
- getting dragon eggs for Sandy the cook in Trinsic)
- _________________________________________________________________
-
- PIRATES' MAP & TABLET:
-
-
- Talking to Mariah in Lycaeum will reveal that a second portion of
- the tablet will be needed to translate it fully. Mariah directs you to
- Zoltar the gypsy. Zoltar will tell you that pirates stole the other
- portion of the tablet. To locate this second piece of tablet you will
- need:
- Thieves Belt - sewers under LB's to join the Thieves Guild to be
- able to get any information from HOMER on Bucaneer
- Den.
- Homer will tell you that there are 9 pieces to the map of Captain
- Hawkin's treasure (the location of the 2nd piece of tablet). Homer has
- one of the nine pieces. The others are at:
- Shipwreck - 71S, 14E
- Ant Mound - 4th level
- Dungeon Shame
- Dungeon Wrong
- Giving Sandy, the cook in Trinsic, dragon eggs will tell you the other
- locations of map pieces:
- Serpent's Hold - A woman to the east has a piece. You will
- need to give her a Magic Shield to get it.
- Dagger Isle - Hermits cellar (move harpsicord)
- Bad gypsies - Buy or pickpocket the piece (N of Paws)
- Mayor of Trinsic - Confront mayor with name "GORDON"
- After collecting 8 pieces return to HOMER. He will give you the last piece
- and tell you how many paces to move before digging (you will need a SHOVEL).
- Drop the map pieces and move them around until you get a clear map of the
- location of the treasure.
- TREASURE: Small island to southwest of Bucaneer's Den with 3 stones in
- northeast corner. Walk 3 steps south, 9 steps west, 12 steps south. DIG!
- This will reveal a hole that you can enter. Explore this area (which has
- many traps) until you find the sign: "Drop to your Death", choose the
- hole that has a gold nugget next to it to find the TABLET.
- Return to Bucaneer's Den and give Storm Cloak to Homer.
- Return to Lycaeum with both parts of the tablet and talk to Mariah.
-
-
- _________________________________________________________________
-
- GARGOYLES:
-
-
- Mariah will supply some additional information on why the gargoyles
- are causing so much trouble now. She will direct you to Sin Vraal (south
- of shrine of sacrifice) who will tell you that you can enter the
- gargoyle world through Hythloth.
- Dungeon Hythloth is to be found near the Shrine of Humility (lower
- right portion of the map). You will find Captain Johne on the bottom
- level. He will tell you about the gargoyles and give you a scroll that
- will allow you to talk to gargoyles. Cpt. Johne will also tell you about
- Beh Lem a gargoyle who will help you get around the gargoyle city without
- being attacked. Beh Lem is to be found just outside of Dungeon Hythloth
- on the gargoyle plane.
- Talk to Beh Lem. He will tell you to see his father and give you
- instructions on how to find him. Beh's father will tell you that you need
- to visit the gargoyle Inquisitor (Lord Draxinusom) and surrender as well
- as the need for you to make a sacrifice to help mend the two worlds, that
- of humans and gargoyles. Naxatilor is the gargoyle who will be able to
- explain sacrifice to you more clearly.
- Go see Lord Drax and surrender. Drax will ask that you submit to
- wearing an amulet of submission. Dupre will warn you that it is a magical
- trick, ignore him. Once you are wearing the amulet, you will be able to
- travel freely around the gargoyle world and talk with its inhabitants.
- Now visit Nax (who lives across the way from Drax and learn more about
- sacrifice. Sacrifice, to gargoyles, can mean one of three things: self,
- others or valuables. When asked which you wish to sacrifice, answer "value".
- Nax informs you that the Codex is the only thing of real value. Nax will
- ask if you wish to destroy the Codex, answer "no". Nax will then suggest
- that you return the Codex to the void. Here at last is your true mission
- in this game!
- Visit the Hall of Knowledge to read the Book of Rituals and to get
- the vortex lens (it is broken and you will need to have it repaired by
- the gargoyle lens maker who lives east of the gargoyle city). After doing
- these errands and returning to Nax where needed for additional instructions,
- you will be told that you need a concave vortex lens to represent humans
- and to read the Codex for instructions on what to do with the lenses and
- the vortex cube (loaded with the 8 moonstones). The vortex CUBE is supposed to
- be in the Hall of Knowledge but you will find it missing. Asking the gargoyle
- who cares for the Hall, you will learn that the Cube was stolen by humans who
- went to StoneGate. StoneGate is the castle that lies in the mountains south of
- Minoc. You will need to find secret passages as well as do a couple of errands
- for the Ogres that live there to get the vortex Cube.
- The mage that lives across the river near Lycaeum will be able to make
- you a concave vortex lens if you can give him a glass sword. Glass swords
- can be found on Phoenix in the sewers.
- You will not be able to enter the temple of the Codex unless you are
- on a quest. THere is only one way to be put on a quest and that is to
- visit the Shrine of Singularity (in the gargoyle world). To visit the
- Shrine of Singularity you will need a balloon. Plans for making a balloon
- can be found on a dead body in the dungeon under Sutek's. Once you have the
- balloon plans you will need to visit:
- Minoc to have the basket woven (300gp),
- Paws to buy rope (5gp)
- to have silk thread spun (have lots of spider silk for this) (10gp)
- New Magincia to have the thread woven into cloth (20gp)
- Paws to have the cloth sewn into a large bag (75gp)
- You also need a cauldron (dungeon wrong is a good source for this) and an
- anchor.
- USE the balloon plans to make a balloon. Have one of your strong characters
- carry the balloon. Use a moongate to get to the gargoyle altar (see moon-
- gate chart above). Go north and a little to the right, drop the balloon and
- then use it. Use the FAN to change the wind to S so that you may travel
- north. Once past the mountains, land and enter the Shrine of Singularity.
- TALK to the altar. When asked what you want, answer "quest". You will
- be asked for whom you seek this quest of the Codex, answer "all". The
- shrine will tell you to visit the shrines representing the gargoyle virtues
- Control, Passion & Diligence. Each of these shrines contains a statue with
- which you must talk to learn the mantra of that virtue. The three virtues
- combined equal the mantra for the Singularity. Use the balloon to return south
- of the mountains, back to near the gargoyle altar.
- The entrances to the shrines of Control, Passion and Diligence are
- found on the island of the gargoyle world (which is not that large). The
- catacombs of Diligence are the hardest to get through. There is a secret door
- leading to a ladder near the lower left corner of the catacombs. This secret
- door is NOT on an outer wall.
- After you have visited all three shrines and learned the mantras, return
- to the Shrine of Singularity. When asked if you have visited all three shrines
- answer yes and then chant the mantra UNORUS. You now have a quest and may
- enter the temple containing the Codex!
- Use the Moon Orb to get to the Temple of the Codex and read it (LOOK).
- Follow the instructions to place the two lenses and the Cube loaded with all
- eight moonstones then USE the Cube!
- You will see a series of pictures that culminate in the END GAME!
- CONGRATS!
