Damaris' sword? Nope.

It was asked here but given a shit answer.

It was asked here but ignored.

It was asked here but also ignored.

Quest marker disappears. Damaris' sword doesn't exist, apparently.

Dang, I can give a good short answer to this. The simple answer is: the sword exists if you make it your first job to talk to Damaris, get the quest, then make her sword the first thing you pick up the moment you wake up in the zone past the tutorial zone. Okay, I am kind of exaggerating but for people who know how buggy this game is they'll feel I'm telling the figurative truth. Otherwise you'll find the exact same sword, but it somehow doesn't count as Damaris' sword. Glorious spaghetti code!

It has been a long time since I played and I only have an old version I'm not willing to boot up now so please tolerate my lack of ability to specify exact names and locations.

First, go to the taberna where Damaris is, talk to her, get the quest. I may as well add that you should ask about taking off your mask because if you don't you don't get the quest to do that. It's weird that roleplaying dialogue a certain way can lock you out of the main quest to get your fun-looking body.

Secondly, on the roads towards the taberna across a thin walkway over a stream, past this walkway will be a cave tunnel where 3 statues form the scene of a woman sexed (raped?) by 2 men. This statue arrangement in this tunnel is unique in the whole game. Just outside that tunnel between the tunnel and the bridge, a statue stands with a sword plunged into it. This is Damaris' sword.

Bonus: It bugs out hella often, often spawning multiple copies of said sword in the same place. You can probably score at least 1 more copy to keep one for yourself after you give on to Damaris. You can even sell Damaris' sword to Damaris and she won't recognize it... making this approach impossible as a solution to resolve a bugged sword quest but nice as extra income. It's a decently fast and strong sword with a nice blocking bonus and a nice crit chance. However the poisonous viper sword is overall better for DPS, there's a 2-handed big blade that gives you a nice moveset though not much more damage, and there's a one-handed axe around though I've not seen the quest to get it yet.

I'm super busy these days and the previous update didn't seem to add much. I might get the next version after and play that for a while though.

I appreciate the assist. Your clues led me to it.

So to clear this up even more with screen shots, Damaris' sword is here:





In-game screenshot and map point, because fuck this quest.

Video TDR failure is 95% a overloaded GPU.

When I start up the UE5 version, it says that there is less content than the UE4 version. Is that correct? And is the same content from UE4 in UE5, just less of it?

I'm trying to figure out which version I should try out.

Did they ever fix the bug where if you got the sword before talking to Damaris the quest bugged out?

I installed the UE5 version from OP's post and after finishing the first quest 'Behold' the screen fades to black with the Carnal Instinct Logo and the game crashes, until the end of the first quest the game runs fine, does anyone know a solution? I've already tried searching but I haven't found anything.

Details:

  • No Error code or window.
  • The game closes by itself shortly after passing the Carnal Instinct logo upon completing the quest.

That sounds like running out of RAM when trying to load a slightly larger map. Or your GPU is choking on a badly-textured horse cock.

Update graphics drivers and make sure swap memory is enabled/has enough room to work.

I'm not sure. I'd recommend getting the quest first before getting the sword as usual.

I keep it mind still it funny when steam players reported it the devs post they have no idea how to trigger it after being told many times how it happen.

Thanks, I don't thinks related to swap because I have 16 Gb of Ram and 16 Gb assigned to Page file in Windows, as you mentioned it's probably related to the version of my GPU driver, because I get a warning when opening the game, but currently I can't update as the latest version because AMD hasn't released the fixed driver for my card. Is there a way I could play on another PC and transfer my save once I've completed the first mission?

Nice bait. I checked Wild Life before and there wasn't much to play. I checked WL's latest update, only animations. However game development doesn't need to be a competition. Let them both go on whatever path their devs want.
Click to expand...
Yeah when i played WL didnt like it cuz its main consept seems like "creating scenes" instead of "role play". So i think both games great and literally different "at this point" . Maybe we can say WL trying to create big "library" first then quest/lore etc. and CI follows "balanced" path.
