It seems like this amazing mod isn't entirely compatible with the ReForged content mod. At least you can't use the cult card in the Exploration, and growing a rare seed using scholarship is impossible since it thinks you are attempting to write literature.

Why does hespera hate us pursuing ungrowth?

good job

I see, thank you very much for the reply!

There's 4 new endings in total: two victory endings, a legacy specific loss ending, and a 'joke' loss ending. If you've completed the secret victory, you've probably experienced all there is in terms of gameplay.

What are the 4 other endings? I got the ungrowth ascension one, but there are 3 others?

Update on my latest question, I managed to get a cemetery after many tries. However, I can only get corpses from it! Any idea how to get the ghoul's mould?
Arzakon 6 Dec, 2024 @ 10:26am 
Hi. First of all, exceptional mod. I love it. Just a question, it's been asked before but I've followed the advice and didn't get anywhere. How do I find the cemetery? I've tried using the horsetail + Level 2 Secret Histories, but so far, nothing. Am I missing something here? Thanks!
Morag Tong 22 Sep, 2024 @ 11:42am 
I really adore this mod <3

I'm struggling trying to find Ghoul's Mold, is it just a rare drop from the cemetary?
Nixavros 5 Aug, 2024 @ 10:05am 
Super awesome mod, my only complaint is that the later parts to grow yourself are a pain with how much you need to go to port noon. I feel it relies too heavily upon getting a Frangiclave to repeat peacock door.
adamcay08 4 Aug, 2024 @ 9:43am 
is the amount stats required for wort in the well random?
A_kind_of_pluto 12 Jul, 2024 @ 5:57am 
I absolutely love this mod, it feels like it could have been an official legacy, and has so much content. Stupid question, I can't seem to get "Streets strange by moonlight", am I doing something wrong?
literally_laila  [author] 26 Jun, 2024 @ 8:00am 
Thank you very much, Quinn, I'm glad you enjoyed it! As for the bug, I've only toggled the flashing danger effect on while there is no card in the slot - I'm pretty sure this is a bug with the base game, you might find similar behaviour if you do the same on other danger countdowns.
Quinn_1804 25 Jun, 2024 @ 5:58am 
Update after many hours of playing :) First off, thanks for all the fun and frustrations that this expansion has brought - I have bought you a coffee. It did not break anything and works well, except for one time where I thougth I'd lost my save game because Steam had disabled all mods. Maybe that was a buggy update, as thankfully all of it was restored a few days later.

I did have to look up some things in the later stages as it was too cryptic what exactly to look for or where to find it.

I could only find one bug: Every time the season comes where it takes a health card and turns it into hunger, upon closing and reopening the game while that process is active, it gives a red circle and music indicating there is imminent danger, even though I have plenty of health cards available.

Definitely looking forward to more!
Quinn_1804 27 May, 2024 @ 2:17am 
This looks fantastic - can I just add it to the regular game without breaking anything?
Neoximi 23 Mar, 2024 @ 2:47am 
Ok, starting a new game without mods and then enabling them seemed to fixed it.
Neoximi 22 Mar, 2024 @ 4:50pm 
The Study slot doesn't have the "Aspect: Alchemy" because of this I can't slot the hellebore horticulture.
It doesn't return when I dissable other mods.
literally_laila  [author] 23 Feb, 2024 @ 6:11am 
That's certainly not the regular behaviour, seems like a compatibility issue with another mod?
MysticMaguss 21 Feb, 2024 @ 5:01pm 
why can i not slot the hellebore horticulture into study to make potions?
literally_laila  [author] 7 Feb, 2024 @ 3:50am 
I might have considered making an apostle legacy for it, but because the ascension is already quite difficult and you're already collecting the highest tier items, I'm not sure that there is anything more to do really with the base game framework. The hidden ending is already basically equivalent to the other Namehood ascensions, so if I wanted something bigger I'd need to do a whole new game like Obdurant. In another world I could have made the standard victory easier, and have the current path be the apostle one. Still, I like that you can experience everything in the mod without having to do multiple playthroughs.
Comfort Creature 4 Feb, 2024 @ 2:20pm 
Still genuinely wish there was an ascension to namehood for the growth legacy. This mod is so good and I'd love to see the growth ascension taken to an extreme. I know it never will but I can dream.
Clockwork 6 Dec, 2023 @ 3:00pm 
Question regarding obtaining Wort-from-the-Well. When exploring with the necessary components, I instead obtain an acquaintance card (with the notoriety from following a rumor) with the leftover input plant card. I am also running Season of Acquaintances, so this might be a compatibility issue. Is it normal to receive an acquaintance card if the deck for them is not empty when attempting to get Wort-from-the-Well?
roxiethedragon 25 Nov, 2023 @ 8:00am 
@literally_laila Thank you!
literally_laila  [author] 25 Nov, 2023 @ 3:44am 
It's actually a base game interaction! You can use it to cure Decrepitude by dreaming with Decrepitude and placing it in the slot .
roxiethedragon 24 Nov, 2023 @ 4:15pm 
I noticed that The True blood of St. Janaurius can be has to consumable trait, but i cant dream with it. it says that i am in good health and should save it for when i need it. when should i consume the ingredient?
EXP 13 Nov, 2023 @ 2:16am 
@comfort creature, Thanks very much
Comfort Creature 12 Nov, 2023 @ 6:30pm 
(I think you get it by exploring with a level 2 secret histories lore + horsetail)
EXP 12 Nov, 2023 @ 4:02pm 
Quick question, there's a flower found in the cemetery right?
how do I find the cemetery without the ghoul ascension active?
Comfort Creature 12 Nov, 2023 @ 12:21am 
@Ashtero that was from an earlier build where there wasn't an immortal enemy to deal with
Ashtero 11 Nov, 2023 @ 3:02pm 
Is it possible to go for an alternative victory without making enemy of Hespera? I'd assume not, but the situation on the third screenshot implies otherwise.
Comfort Creature 10 Nov, 2023 @ 10:09pm 
I would genuinely pay for an expansion to this legacy, enabling a Major victory (namehood) akin to an Apostle Aestuant/Obsonate/Entheate ascension, even if it was just for the Malachite ending. This is easily the best modded legacy I've ever played, probably one of the best legacies available to play full-stop and I need more of it.
literally_laila  [author] 25 Sep, 2023 @ 10:12am 
The entries for each plant have a hint on where to find them at the end. Generally you can find them by exploring various locations. If you look in the guide document in the mod description, you can see exactly where to find every plant.
Windows 8 Pro 19 Sep, 2023 @ 6:00pm 
is there any guide or walkthrough to getting the various plants?
literally_laila  [author] 7 Aug, 2023 @ 11:12am 
If you'd like to eat something that is Consumable, you can simply slot it into Dream. If you're looking to brew a potion using two plants, slot Hellebore Horticulture into Study and add the plants.
kal‘tist’s lover 6 Aug, 2023 @ 8:33pm 
How to make food from raw materials? I can't seem to figure out how to combine the two plant ingredients into a delicious food... which is causing me to not even rise to the second level of desire... I've even got the key...
Zqfmbg god of scrabble cheats 23 Jul, 2023 @ 1:14pm 
(Contuation) I respectfully suggest you consider making the fact that the mirror is destroyed in the process a bit more obvious to the player. That a seed and nutrients are destroyed when growing a plant is obvious and the player also knows this from experience. That using a broken mirror used to reflect light onto the plant white it is growing destroys the mirror in the process is not obvious nor known from experience. I do not even recall seeing the little symbol for "this will be lost" in the square where I put it (though I might have missed it).
Zqfmbg god of scrabble cheats 23 Jul, 2023 @ 1:12pm 
Thank you for a swift answer literally laila. Yes mirrors are not unique. However if you got it from Keglin's scratch and you lose it before you get the frangiclave you find yourself with having to Kerisham repeatedly having 3 chances in 30 to get the mirror back or laboriously scraping together level 12 secret histories until you get Star-shatttered Fane (for the mirror) or Wreck of Cristobel (for the Frangiclave). That would be very repetitive and distinctly un-fun. I have chosen to restart my game. (continues)
Nayr 23 Jul, 2023 @ 6:30am 
I have been playing a few mod legacies, and this one is truly one of the best. I love how dynamic running the plant shop is, and I am completely baffled by the incredible amount of content you added to the game. I only did the Ring-Yew Ascension path and I am still searching for the other endings, but this will surely keep me on my toes for a while
literally_laila  [author] 23 Jul, 2023 @ 4:13am 
Zqfmbg, that is indeed intentional, since all ingredients are consumed and broken mirrors count as ingredients. The mythical plants are meant to be quite costly to grow (though at least mirrors are not unique, so you can get more).
Jack Croakman 22 Jul, 2023 @ 12:47am 
Nevermind, may have been another mod interfering with it, looks good now.
Jack Croakman 22 Jul, 2023 @ 12:41am 
For the intro I keep going to study the seed parcel but it takes all of my current health, and I have no way to progress. It just keeps looping on itself.
Zqfmbg god of scrabble cheats 21 Jul, 2023 @ 11:43am 
Lovely mod, thank you for your efforts. I must ask though, are you supposed to lose the cracked Wildering Mirror when making the amber tears ? It is awfully inconvenient. Before you ask, I did not immediately notice it disappearing but I did search for it for a good fifteen minutes moving every card on the table to do so and also using the technique of clicking on a hole that needs a tool to make it glimmer.
literally_laila  [author] 1 Jul, 2023 @ 2:40am 
Thank you for the kind words, I'm glad you enjoyed it! For your question, it indeed does - otherwise I'd imagine things would quickly get out of hand.
kpc_senpai 1 Jul, 2023 @ 12:56am 
I've played a few mods so far, and by far this is the best one I've got! Just the right amount of difficulty without being too bullshit, and cool riddles that I admittedly get wrong 10% of the time, but it is what makes it fun!! I just finished the regular ascension and I'm currently planning to get the other endings, so I'm reaaaally itching to ask how you could get those (though I already have an idea on one) but I'm gonna refrain from that for now. What I really wanna ask is does
using Astray for its intended purpose consume it?
I forgot to try it since I was so excited to finish the mod lol. Anyway, 10/10!! Too bad I don't have enough money to support you on ko-fi, but best wishes!!
literally_laila  [author] 29 Jun, 2023 @ 2:29am 
Yes! You can get it by using your desire during cult founding.
irishtim1393 28 Jun, 2023 @ 7:25pm 
I happened to notice a new cult in the console menu. The description seems like it would fit here, but I have a couple mods on. Does this mod include a new cult?
literally_laila  [author] 28 Jun, 2023 @ 7:51am 
Unfortunately with them both being quite large mods I can see at least a few clashes that would overwrite certain mechanics, and it wouldn't be simple to rewrite them to be compatible. You're welcome to try if you'd like, it might not be all that bad, but I'd only recommend that if you were somewhat familiar with checking mod files in case of issues.
darwinplittle 27 Jun, 2023 @ 10:54pm 
This mod is amazing! It's like a brand new game! I was wondering if this mod was compatible with the season of acquaintances mod, as I would be disappointed to be without a liaison on my journey to the ring-yew.
Blake the Snake 21 Jun, 2023 @ 2:27pm 
Oh, you can explore the shop! Thank you.
