Dungeon Siege II Chant location Guide

Dungeon Siege II Chant location Guide

Version 1.2  08.16.2005

Copyright 2005 by Tal Ron "TheNuke"

I decided to make this guide after I completed the game with a few missing 
chants and couldnt find any guide to help me.
If you got any feedback or you found an error or you just couldnt find the 
chant, contact me on E-mail: thenuke@nana.co.il or through ICQ: 97340949

I hope you enjoy the guide and the game.

Version 1.2 update was completly done by Devistater (Thank you for that!). He
added in descriptions of 
what each chant does and the page numbers the chants are from and a few other
misc changes. His email is:
ds2chfaq.20.gamefaqs@xoxy.net

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my chant guide, you shouldn't have any problems finding your missing
chant.
If its not clear where a chant is, look in map (tab button) for a blue 
dot, there might be a secret door. Zooming in with the slider on lower right 
of screen can sometimes help location a blue dot.
This guide is explained for someone whois doing the game for the first time, 
so 'before', 'after' , 'left' and 'right' , will only work if you go through 
the way in the direction you went when you first played.

The chants are in your journal under the "Lore" section. 

Fighters are characters who have the highest level class in Melee skill.
Mages are characters who have the highest level class in Nature or Combat 
magic skill.
Rangers are characters who have the highest level class Ranged skill.

Often you can teleport to town with the teleport spell, run over to the 
shrine, do a chant, and teleport back within about 40 seconds (at least for 
Act III).

*Notes: The "instant" mana regeneration of the Casting chants is actually 
+5000% if you want exact numbers.

Tips: The "Chant of Master Self-Awareness" should be GREAT for bosses with its 
high resists, especially mages since they get +95% to magic damage resist. The 
chaotic chants add a larger boost than any of the specific chants for the 
attributes/skills, but they are random. The Chaotic Chant of Might is probably 
the more usefull of the two chaotic chants. Prosperity chants are a nice boost 
to magic find and gold dropped, but even the best prosperity chant isn't as 
good as a single +120% Magic Find legendary enchanted ring/amulet. The various 
Casting chants which give you "instant" mana recharge are very usefull if you 
have a mage heavy party. The Casting chants all differ only in duration. 
Purity chants give total immunity to the listed effects, despite the mouseover 
description of the effect icon after its been cast.

Note: Information on exactly what each chant does was taken from 
ds2_world_journal_incantations.gas & incantation_definitions.gas & 
incantation_manager.skrit files and the game itself.
