Dark Earth Hints

What weapons will the Yong player accept?

  • 1 of 5: He will not accept used merchandise.  The weapon must be in good condition.
  • 2 of 5: Remember that he will keep it, so be careful what you choose.
  • 3 of 5: A nice Dagger will be acceptable.
  • 4 of 5: Try any of the Konkalite weapons you have picked up.
  • 5 of 5: The only weapon he does not seem to like is a battle axe.  (Maybe because it is used and worn.)
