Posts from The scenario “A Tear for Ossir”

I've checked all the indicators. There's no tear drop, and everything is here... I've played it 6 times already.

What does it say? When you dig?

When I start digging near the markers (I dig near all of them), it says: "Ashes of Ashi are not here":smile32:

Thanks to your hints, but I still had to struggle. It was a terrible quest; I spent the whole day on it! For everyone, the Tear is buried in different places, and you have to run from one marker to another and back, and again, and again – a nightmare! The most interesting thing is that, as **AkiraUfoto** wrote, at the beginning of the game, right after the secondary quest to follow the sign appears, the Tear can be dug up right next to that sign (there are also red flowers there)! But if you've already started all this nonsense with the markers, then it won't be dug up there; you'll have to search for it.

I found the Tear thanks to this forum and registered because...
In total, I counted 10 markers on the map - 8 on the surface, 2 in the dungeon.
I had to approach each one until a message appeared - 2 steps back, i.e., 2 markers back. If you're on the right path, the marker displays a message in a frame; if the marker is incorrect (you're not approaching in the correct sequence), it displays some nonsense. When the message is in a frame, it's a description of what the next one should be, and so on. In principle, it turned out to be very simple, it just took some time. Naturally, everyone will have their own location where to dig - this was also in Heroes 3; the Grail is buried in a different place each time...:D So, there are no bugs; try all the markers and remember there are 10 of them.

I found this place and dug around there (you could have made a cemetery here), but I couldn't find the tear, even though I was digging in the right spot.

I struggled with this task, but I couldn't find the tear.

I'm having the same problem with it. I've defeated everyone, but I can't finish it.

I found this place and dug it all up (you could have made a cemetery here), but I couldn't find the Tear, even though I was digging in the right place.

Well, that's the whole point! That's why there are signs everywhere and they speak in riddles! The answers are hidden in these riddles ;)

I'm having the same problem with it. I've killed everyone, but I can't finish it.

Of course, because one of the main tasks (finding the Tear of Ashi) has not been completed!

It was difficult, but I found that stupid tear. In my game, it turned out to be near the crypt in the Dungeon. Of course, it's easier to defeat the Dark Elves first, and then calmly visit the markers.

You need to approach the markers in a specific order; dialogues will appear.

Is it the same for version 1.60? Because I've completed everything and cleared the TE, but there isn't a single obelisk on the map as we are all used to, and the pointers are completely wrong. Anyway, mine turned out to be in the basement by the crypt, or rather slightly below the pointer itself.

I'm currently playing this scenario using HotA 3.0, and I'll try out the different options that other players have mentioned above.

Yes, it's true that if you don't read the first sign, the artifact is dug up on the second day at the location with the red flowers or mushrooms, the mission is completed, and you get 46098 points on Recruit difficulty. But somehow, that doesn't feel like playing the game...

Spent a lot of time on it.
Mostly it was fighting against computer-controlled opponents. Of course, there weren't any strong opponents, they were all easily defeated, but this running back and forth got tiresome. I had to split up the army and further develop Winghael so that I could harass enemy heroes from two sides.
The puzzles turned out to be mostly easy. I only didn't immediately figure out the hint for the sign near the artifact shop, and I also didn't immediately understand where the location for digging up the tear was.
The scenario is relatively simple, but a bit tedious, with too much running around and chasing computer-controlled opponents.
