  1. Here is the Pinned Comment:
    Info on what tricks/exploits are still working can be found below.
    I also want to let everyone that has watched the initial parts 1-6 of this series (which made up Act 1) that I will be switching format to this bigger style of video. The next part in the series will cover Act 2, and the final part will cover Act 3. This, along with the fact that I am going on a road trip for Thanksgiving week means that it will probably be 2-3 weeks before the Act 2 video comes out. Thank you for your understanding and patience, and of course, thanks for watching!

    As of 11/15/2023 all of the following exploits/tricks still work (Spoilers):
    – How to get Silver Sword of the Astral Plane early/in Act 1.
    – How to get all rewards from Kagha Encounter (Broodmother’s Revenge, Pale Oak, and Faithwarden Title).
    – How to get Auntie Ethel’s Hair & Still Defeat her/ save everyone that can be saved.
    – How to give Noblestalk Mushroom to BOTH Shadowheart AND Derryth.
