Superhero League of Hoboken Hints

How can I stop the Freehold shaman from overbilling?

  • 1 of 12: A lot of this mission is just a matter of talking.  Go through the dialog choices and do what seems to make the most sense on the basis of your conversations.  (The Freehold marketplace is at 2A (2,4).)
  • 2 of 12: Start with the shaman and then proceed to the hardware seller, hostelry, and brothel in that order to learn what the problem is.
  • 3 of 12: Then go to the shaman to suggest a bartering system and back to the brothel to see if the madam will accept it.
  • 4 of 12: All you need to do now is find a way to keep the Ecuadorian lady warm, and everyone will be happy.
  • 5 of 12: You should have found one warm item in a previous mission.
  • 6 of 12: Give the madam the fur coat from the Paterson warlord at 2D (9,9).
  • 7 of 12: You'll have to create another warming item yourself.
  • 8 of 12: Look at your collection of superheroes.
  • 9 of 12: King Midas can create mufflers.  If he hasn't joined SLH yet, you need to rescue him from his captors at Philadelphia (6,5) -- rescuing him is just a matter of combat.
  • 10 of 12: There are several types of mufflers, including the ones that keep you warm.
  • 11 of 12: Have Midas use his superpower on a useless item twice.  The second time he uses it, he'll create the scarf-type muffler.  Give it to the madam, and she'll give you a note to verify her lower prices.  Deliver the note, and keep passing notes around until the shaman gives you one with his lower prices on it.
  • 12 of 12: Then go back to SLH to get credit for the mission.
