This is a walkthrough post for "Pandora's Box", a fascinating and complicated quest in Vampyr . It spans through several main missions and is connected with a subsequent brilliant puzzle that opens a secret vault which, in turn, rewards you with a cool weapon, a special collectible and an achievement. Main mission "Unnatural Selection" : after you find your way via the sewers to reach the Temple Church area but before you go to meet Aloysius Dawson, run around the perimeter of the church to locate an underground passage. At the end of this passage, an Indian fortune teller, Usher Talltree, will be sitting surrounded by curios, doing his magic. Talk to him to get one important hint for Aloysius Dawson, and also have him offer you his quest, Pandora's Box, to find his stolen notebook. If you have enough money, you can ask him to "read the cards" and every time you do this, he will give you hints on several residents. I skipped this part, since it is ...

I saw this playthrough as some sort of challenge because I wanted to check how leveling up works in this beautiful game when you complete only the main story and the activities given by the three principal associates (Abberline, Clara and Henry). This is very different from my previous (Selective) playthrough because in that one I did some extra stuff (like a few secondary missions and the activities given by Topping and Wynert) but I did not include all of them in the finalized videos. In this Basic Playthrough Challenge, I only play the main story set in Victorian London (I did not include the modern day segments simply in order to focus on my task), and complete just the activities offered by Frederick Abberline (Bounty Hunts), Henry Green (Templar Hunts and Gang Strongholds) and Clara O'Dea (Child Liberations), as well as the Gang Wars.  It turned out it was a bit of a challenge indeed, because following that route, you level up only by completing the memories in a sequence whi...

This NG+ playthrough of "Odyssey" is centered around combat mostly; I am using an "Invulnerability" build which consists of several perks and engravings combined with the Mythical Heroes Legendary set (customized) and Neokles's special Spartan Javelin, all engraved with additional perks that add up to result in an almost invincible build. This "Invulnerability" build is not 100% damage-proof as certain attacks can still get you, but you are immune to most hits and it is nearly impossible to die. I am also using mostly, but not exclusively, poison-based attacks. Armor, arsenal and engravings Spartan Javelin (30% Melee Resistance) +50% Crit Damage Arachne's Stingers (poison-imbued dagger) +20% Damage with Overpower Abilities Fanged Bow (Normal arrows become poison arrows) +30% Damage with Full Health Perseus Crown +30% Ranged Resistance Bracers of Theseus +30% Ranged Resistance Jason's Golden Fleece +40% Poison Resistance  [since poison attacks a...
