Pillars Of Eternity 2: Prologue - Walkthrough Pillars Of Eternity 2 Guide and Walkthrough

Last update: 20 November 2022

This page provides a walkthrough of the prologue section of Pillars of Eternity 2 Deadfire. The first main quest of the game is very simple and focuses on customizing your characters appearance and skills and selecting the events that took place in the original Pillars of Eternity and its DLC.

You have to make a choice regarding the events from the first instalment of the series - you can import save files from the original or choose one of six predefined stories (optionally, you can manually set all the choices to you licking). You can find more information on how to do this under this link: How to import game files (saves) from the original Pillars of Eternity? In the FAQ section of this guide.

Attention - Do not choose the sixth story, it is a collection of all the worst choices that could have been made in the first entry of the game. It's best to take interest in it only after finishing the game at least once in any other way.

Continue conversation and pick one of the dialogue options connected with looking for Eothas. Soon a character creation sheet will open. Among other things, you have to choose a race, a class, skills, a name, and finally, customize your avatar's appearance. You can find more information on the topic at: Character creation in this guide. After creating your own character start your last journey in the In-Between that will lead you to an area inside a ship. Click on the character lying on the bed to return to the world of the living.

Alternative way - hidden game ending

An important piece of information is that the conversation with Pallid Knight may not end well. During the conversation, you may not agree to the offer of the god you are bound with. This becomes possible after you have loaded saved games, or picked one of the predefined stories.

Of course, this is only a curiosity, because this way, you will miss the entire story, but p[layers who want to see all the endings will be satisfied.

Battle on the ship
