I like the Rune Warrior class. Mine is also a necromancer, so he controls both undead and demons.
After 3 failures and getting the Puppet ending. I finally got the Hero ending with my Queen Jess and my son Damien and here are my stats, note all the max stats were BEFORE my Demon Transformation. My only peeves though is that ALL of my original companions survived; including the Red Priestess:Petra but she was never mentioned in the epilogue. Neither were my squire Raquel, my Dragon or even my allied Giant.
My greatest accomplishment was winning the Grand Tournament Champion Trophy. With only TWO high weapon stats, blades and archery, Evil shined upon me, all hail Shadi. Though Iām probably gonna retry that run, since I flubbed up the Mermaid mission by trying to raise my 80 something archery on the 4 Crystal guards, thinking it would be high enough to get through itā¦NOPE. Seriously these stat checks are ridiculous lol. Just stick with your max stat attacks, even though the points gained donāt help you AT ALL. Not sure if helping the Mermaids makes a mention in the epilogue, hope it does since after you helped them, it mentioned maybe after Daria was safe we could work something out with them. If anyone got their help and got the Hero ending, does it mention them in the epilogue?
Edits: When I helped my allies during all of my summons and in the final group battle where it shows your Win Stats/Summary, it should be noted that Petra was not shown there either but everyone else wasā¦

Quite high ability stats, but then again, to be expected with this classes. They giving nice bonuses.
It will be sad if Red really isnāt mention in epilogue, I yet to play character who lost battle for Tornassa to check.
Can someone tell me how to get the dark knight class? And tell me precisely how to do so? I usually play as a archer unarmed fighter type
A Bug: When Discussing with Jess my son, the choice is: āWhat kind of woman do you think Gareth will grow up to be?ā

āSmooth,ā Jess. āYou made us blunder right onto another creature.ā

Be an evil knight you get the choice in two. When you train for knighthood when all the other prestige classes are available.
If youāre an evil knight, and try to train in Ludd, another knight comes to bring you in, if you kill him, you become a dark knight.
Did you know that in a span of a few days, my review for Lost Heir 3 has became the most popular? By popular, I mean down voted. :3
Seems that people feel you canāt review it after 3 hours of playing. Seems like an odd complaint.
I think Iāll have to balance it some more on the next update. I know itās tough, but I thought the challenge was good. I guess people like their games to be a little easier.
Where is the Puppet Ending mostly coming from?
Should I make the hits softer? Currently, itās 20 health a hit, so you fall on the 5th. Should it be 17 a hit, fall on the 6th?
Or is it the Final Battle? Should I change the numbers needed for a victory?
Is it one of the blunders? Ignoring the pull, talking too long, fighting the mirror demon with regular weapons, jumping through the rift? I thought they were spelled out clearly, should it be clearer yet?
Is it saving the summoner on a particular choice?
I want it challenging, but I donāt like these negative feelings for the game, if itās just because itās too hard in one or more of these spots.
The decision between killing KāGirr and going back to your Summoner is what trips me up mostly. And I think thatās an automatic failure, so no matter how fast I finish speaking to Zusak my Summoner ends up dead. Perhaps Iām making an extra mistake there, but it seems like that failstate might be too punishing.
This is just in my opinion, and it may not reflect the opinion of other readers.
IMO it may be the blunders. I know you shouldnāt ignore your summons on the 2nd pull where you gave your stone to another. In my case it was given to Jess my Queen, I lost my Queen that way. If you have max agility, strength, endurance and Blade and a magical sword, even have Thujaās Belt, you SHOULD be fast, strong and skilled enough to kill KāGaar before he gets summoned back. Its basically the final blow you miss inside the demon realm due to story reasons. Making the max stats you have kinda meaningless. That would kinda be for an alternate ending or hidden achievement if possible, you foil his plans due to your awesomeness. Then afterward you accept your summoners pull kill the villain and still get the hero ending without your summoner(s) dying if you saved the first via your choices and then killing KāGaar in the demon realm instead of the real world would spare your 2nd summoner too.
I got the puppet twice due to blunders. Ignoring the pull and fighting KāGirr instead of letting myself be summoned. I think that both blunders are easy traps to fall into.
Iād give two outs from both blunders. One is Otaku_Kingās option, where if youāre strong enough to kill KāGirr by brute force, then Zusakās plan is meaningless. The other is that, if you have high Willpower/are a Demon Master, you should be beyond Zusakās power to control regardless - it would actually be pretty sweet if you dominated him and got a secret ending. He shoulda read the evil overlord listā¦
I give so many warnings and double āare you sure?ā choices. Should I give a meta-game warning and flat out say, āif you do that, you will lose.ā ?
I think the warnings are seen as a bit of a red herring. On my first playthrough, I ignored it, thinking that it was a trap set up by Zuzak, on my second I attempted to try and talk him down. Turns out I couldnāt do that and got them both, I would say itās mostly just trial and error.
I understand the warnings, but that should only apply if you donāt have the stats for it and you fail, etc. For example on one play through on the island with the Demon Blade. I saved the Red_ in LH 2 and she was part of our group on the island but went missing and you think sheās dead by the evidence you find in the cannibal camp. When I got the Demon Blade you also have the option of snagging a magical artifact or just taking your Demon Blade and leave. If you donāt have enough endurance if you snag an artifact and arenāt fast enough or have the belt to get away you black out. In which case you keep your artifact BUT you lose your Red_ thinking they were eaten by cannibals.
However if you successfully get away you not only keep your artifact, you also get reunited with the Red_ and they leave with you back home. That is a perfectly acceptable trade off, where in which case your stats/items change how things turn out. Instead of a flat out, you lose because of story reasons.
I just think it shouldnāt be an auto lose. The first time you go back for someone summoning you itās Zusak, after all, and he would have a vested interest in keeping you from killing KāGirr.
We, as players, canāt tell the difference between a warning and a trap. Itās not a reliable warning given that thereās two people who can summon us, and one of them is the enemy.
Honestly, Iād eliminate the minefield choices entirely or limit them as much as possible.
I used a stat check to give additional warning. But perhaps the stat check should force you to do the right thing? Would that be a better way to do it?
Spoilers ahead! Do not read on. I think weāre past most spoilers here, so donāt keep reading unless youāve finished the game!
Example: Falling for Zusakās trap and talking too much. Perception would make the MC realize itās a trap and leave immediately, taking away the option to make a bad choice of talking too much.
Example: Similar with the summonerās pull. Donāt rely on the warning and just pull them away on a successful stat check. Perhaps Perception again. Simply remove the option of making a bad choice altogether.
Iām thinking of a really low Perception Check, like 30, or even 25? So, still possible, but harder to fail and includes a stat-dependent saving mechanism.
Those are the big two, I think. Jumping through the rift should be clearly bad and multiple warnings given. Fighting the mirror demon with regular weapons also has warnings, but it is a health loss and not a complete fail. So I think Iāll leave them alone.
Is this a good plan?
Is that where the majority of the Puppet Endings are coming from?
