I started playing around with decrypting the campaign lore text. Before I spend too much time on it, I was curious if it’s actually decryptable or if it’s complete gibberish. Hopefully @Saltypatra can answer. I’m not looking for how it’s encrypted, just whether or not the runes are a gibberish placeholder or whether there is a method to the madness. Or maybe someone has already cracked the code.
This is just something I find entertaining. Hopefully there is a cypher.
I immediately thought of Ultima too! Was going to revisit my cloth maps when I returned home from work. Thanks for letting me know it would be a wasted effort, but enjoyed that others had a trip down memory lane.
Will still await official reply but this is pretty much what I assumed. While the runes match in number of characters, I also have not found any correlation (yet).
That’s what happens when you get excited that one of the Zodiac cyphers was finally solved.
There are repeated runes too often in the code where the final word does not have this. It is more apparent if you screenshot the code then the final phrase.
I tried this when it first came out, using a variety of runic alphabets such as Futharc and Tolkien, but then I noticed on word had the same rune three times in a row!
So, it’s not a cipher, it’s just random characters
That’s easy. Get to C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\Pipeworks\GemsofWar\Localization\ GemsOfWar_[your language].json and get to the ARTIFACT_30002_LORE01 - LORE010 for the current artifact and there you go
While I appreciate the answer key, I’m more interested in the problem itself. However, this would be useful to check against if it’s confirmed that there is indeed something to solve.
