Ankheg Shells

ilhdr

by mistake I sold the Ankheg Shell for the merchant instead of asking him for the armor. Now it looks like that Ankheg vanished from the game. Is that true? With another shell will he make the armor?

if you bring him another shell, there will be the option to make the amor, better yet, even after he has made the armor you can keep giving him shells for 500 GP,

also note that he will only make one suit of ankheg armor

if you need more shells:

go to the area directly north of the friendly arm inn, that place is littered with ankhegs

I already passed ten times there, and not a single ankheg appeared!

I cleaned that cave because of the farmers, is there a relation?

try rest spawning in that area, im pretty sure the only thing that attacks you if you get interrupted is an ankheg

If you follow the path all the way to the northern edge of the area there are always two ankhegs that spawn just off to the right of the path about three quarters of the way up - you just have to stay on the path.

There should also be some in the cave/burrow.

This might be the only way. I was trying to farm xp last playthrough and after a couple of passes through the area, none turned up at all.

That woman who tells you not to overdo the killing was obviously right......adventuring parties, responsible for the loss of most species in history.
Greenpeace would really hate Charname and their pals.

Just rest in the cave.. more often than not, your rest will be interrupted by ankheg.

Really, it's so simple and cheesy... Even on legacy of bhaal difficulty, you can just go get that damn stun-mace and farm ankhegs from lvl 1 to xp cap in no time at all.. and have tens of thousands gold.

There is a single ankheg to the Northwest of Tenya's home, at the Baldur's gate bridge area.

Resting did the trick, thx.
