<p><ch.lsquot/>Suddenly the black tendril retreats<ch.rsquot/>, copied and adapted from <a idref="sect103">Section 103</a>. Without this extensive revision, mention of the black tendril appears from nowhere, creating a large continuity issue.</p>

- <p>(<a id="err230" idref="sect230">230</a>) Addressing the issue of what <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ> bonus the Dagger of Vashna or Helshezag should confer for this fight is rather problematic. On the one hand, use of the Dagger of Vashna in combat against Darklord Kraagensk<ch.ucirc/>l adds <quote>7 points to your <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ> for the duration of the fight, owing to the power of the Dagger of Vashna when used against a Darklord of Helgedad</quote> (cf. <a idref="sect171">Section 171</a>). Similarly, Helshezag will also add <quote>7 points
[to your <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ>] when used against a Darklord of Helgedad</quote> (cf. <a idref="sect240">Section 240</a>).</p>

<p>However, things are complicated by the battle with Darklord Gnaag in a few sections where the text clearly states: <quote>The power of the weapon you wield is greatly intensified when used within the walls of Helgedad. Owing to its increased power, add 12 to your <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ> for the duration of the fight</quote> (cf. <a idref="sect88">Section 88</a>).</p>
<p>It seems that the author intended to keep the <ch.plus/>12 <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ> bonus a surprise for the final, climactic battle, but this leads to inconsistency with the battle against Darklord Taktaal presented here. We suggest that you use the <ch.plus/>12 <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ> bonus against Darklord Taktaal due to the power of the weapon you are wielding.</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect231">231</a>) Replaced <quote>three Drakkar</quote> with <quote>three Drakkarim</quote>.</p>
