I can't find the workers in the sewers for Pai'Na's quest.  I searched the this forum and only found this thread:

http://forums.pocketplane.net/index.php/topic,16043.0.html

After reading it, I double checked the western part of sewers and I still could not find them.

Any suggestions?

Other mod installed:  G3 fix pack, Tower of Deception, and Ascension.

Thanks in advance,

Timoteob

Thought you might know some clua tricks about this issue.

Can you give me a link to the DoS forum? Anyway i'll leave this quest behind and try it on my next install (without DoS).

I'm afraid I haven't played DoS so I don't know what changes it makes to the sewers. Have you tried asking at the DoS forum?

I talked to Pai'na got the quest and went to the sewers.

Nobody there to be found.

I also got DoS installed. Any way to solve this prob? Using some CLUA commands maybe?

Hi All,

I have been to see Hug and Jeagger in the sewers but they don't say anything beyond mentioning that they are cleaning the sewers.. do I have the right couple?

I have been to see the woman in the spider's laid.. and she told me to seek the sword.. how do I get the sword now? :-/

Otherwise, I am enjoying Unfinished Business a lot!

Rob

Looking at it from a story perspective, it sort of makes sense.

Spider's Bane was an item found in BG1, correct?  If memory serves, you find it in the spider-infested region of the Cloakwoods.  Two wannabe adventurer brothers find it and, thinking themselves invincible, set off to exterminate the spiders and become heroes.  One of the brothers, and Spider's Bane, gets poisoned and is dragged off by the spiders.  The surviving brother begs you to go save him.  When you finally find him, he's dead and Spider's Bane is now yours.  So Spider's Bane would become the main character's property...

...flash forward to Baldur's Gate 2.  Traveling from Baldur's Gate, the party is ambushed by Irenicus, yadda yadda.  The party's gear is nowhere to be found in Irenicus' Dungeon (with a few exceptions, like the Golden Pantaloons, Sword of Chaos, Claw of Kazgaroth... and so on.)  So, logically, Irenicus might have sold Spider's Bane to a retailler in Athkatla (Or had Bodhi sell it, more likely.)  In this case, the merchant's goods might've made their way to the Cowled Wizards in any number of ways.  From the Cowled Wizards it could be passed on to the Amnian government... and the two boneheaded workers don't actually own the sword; they have it on loan.  From the guard- I think.  This does not, however, explain how it got broken, unless one of the Cowled Wizards did it by accident with a Disintegrate spell.

Or maybe the workers really do break it, hitting it against the wall, or something stupid like that.  I forget, because I did the quest a while ago.  -_-''  But when I did it, they never actually gave me the sword (I [paid for it and got experience for getting it, and got a journal entry about it... but never got it), and so Pai'Na never let me finish the quest.  So I lifted Kithkix off her via Jan Jansen.  Not the most elegant solution, but hey...

Why would the PC have to double cross Pai'Na to gain Spider's Bane?  Pai'Na could, if the PC plays his cards right, entrust the blade to the party for safekeeping.

Also, one of these posts says something like "the sword was never intended to be whole in BG2".  Frankly, I question this statement.  Why does the default installation of BG2 (no mods added) contain an updated Spider's Bane with new graphics and corrected item file???  I forget which item file in particular contains the sword:  just browse the two handed swords and you should come across both the original and updated Spider's Bane.

Frankly, I cheat and create the sword using CLUAConsole because I its a favorite weapon (I love the concept!).  I think it'd be great to have an actual means of fairly obtaining the blade in-game.

I noticed that too when we first coded it. Original Bioware typo...

Just a little thing I noticed with version 13: <CHARNAME> addresses the sewer workers with something like "I here you have a sword I'm looking for," rather than "I hear..."

A couple bugs to report--Version 9 of UB.

Offering to buy the sword for 200 gp results in no gold being deducted at all.
I have a problem with people having items on hand to give you, even though those items aren't present if/when you kill them.
You can complete the quest and get a Web Sack and Black Spider Figurine, then pickpocket or kill Pai'Na and get a 2nd Black Spider Figurine. The mind boggles at the prospect of 2 Improved Kitthixes in Chapter 2.

Making it possible to gain Spider's Bane by double-crossing Pai'Na changes the tenor of the quest dramatically.  Suddenly the course by which the PC most profits is a double-cross, and suddenly a quest which served to convert a pointless battle into a roleplaying encounter becomes a quest which rewards pure powergaming.

In short--I think it's a horrible idea.
