I've played through a few levels of narvidian Dawn but still havent figuered out what or where to look for hidden zones & weapons. Are hidden zones something you have to look for a hidden passage way like old super mario (just walk through wall at right spot)? Dont want a massive spoiler just what to look out for?
;D

At certain points in each level, you get the traditional speech bubble that indicates an area of interest. You only see it when you are close to, and facing the location. Attachments:

Here is what happens when you actually get to the location. The various rewards include: * 1XP bonus * x bonus honor * a bonus armor or weapon Hopefully I have masked this example enough that I haven't given away a location. If not, I'll remove the images and upload some more generic example. Attachments:

slayernz - thanks for being so helpful and yet so careful not to spoil. Great work. The HUD looks nice on your phone!

little request: there are a lot of long corridors with dead ends and nothing inside. To be honest I enter every corridor and every 1 tile alcove to search for bonuses. It would be less disappointing to have message like "nothing here, lets move on".

Also, sometimes there is a hidden bonus that you might be standing right beside, but because you are facing the wrong direction, you don't see. It would be good to see the dialog symbol if you are within a certain proximity of that square (eg 5 square radius)

I will double check the Bonus Armor sections, I painstaking tested each one (took a looooong time) but maybe somehow I missed one. After you complete the mission you will press "Vea Victus, Templars" and it will convert the bonus item to a carried item.

afair on level 6 you get first "unique" item - first two are items from shop so first time I get bonus item I also missed it.

Definitely picked up a couple of nice weapons (Neptune and Hydra weapons). Am looking out for a special pickup for the ole Captain.
Noticed though that there are a number of +1 XP points, but no matter who picks it up, it seems like only the captain benefits (I could be wrong though). It would be great if all of the team benefited from the +1
Also, I noticed that if you resume a game, the XP bonuses that you picked up earlier are not counted at the end of the mission.

slayernz - you got TA-740 about the "resume and bonuses are lost". We will take a look!
