The Fortune Engine - main mission | Shek Kip Mei Shadowrun: Hong Kong Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
The very final part of the game. You are going to face demons and the main boss - 'Qian Ya', Queen With a Thousand Teeth. The battle will begin when you will try to open the door with the terminal in the middle of the area (M12,12). Take your time to look around and set up your strategy. Spread your team, find the Dragon Lines and places where you can summon elementals if you have any mages in your group.
After the beginning of the fight four demons will appear next to the "power sources" (and one more next to the queen). They are candles which you have to snuff off or the queen will be immortal. You have to be ready to kill the demons and to snuff off the candles as fast as you can.
The best strategy is to turn your main sources of damage against the queen and the demons near her right after deactivating her defense field. The demons near the edges will have rather bad accuracy from their distance. Right now queen has just 120 hit points so you may defeat her quickly. However you have to save your first aid kits since it's just the first part of the battle. After defeating the queen you have to still get rid of the demons however you need to remember that undefeated queen heals herself for 10 hit points per turn so once you attack her you better focus on her entirely. Some spells, such as the poison of Gobbet, are especially powerful against her.
After the fight your enemy will run away. Behind the door you will see a blue portal on the ground. Before you will stand on it heal your group and prepare yourself although don't use any buffs yet since every one of them are going to vanish once you will pass the portal.
You will be moved to another world where you will face three minions and the Queen herself in a new form (170HP). She is now more durable and can randomly block the incoming attacks. You may keep using magic attacks like poison since they are just as effective as they were before. You may also try to ignite her. Defeating her will also destroy demons however you may decide to focus them first since they can powerfully heal her by even third of her health bar at a time. Find some good cover and use one teammate as a bait. When the demons will jump on him try to defeat them with range attacks.
Finishing this fight will allow you to choose the ending of the game during a conversation with the queen. Some of these endings will depend on your decisions from earlier parts of the game. The precise description of this part of the game you will find in the Endings chapter. Finally you will return to Heoi, talk to Kindly Cheng and go to sleep, which will also finish the game.
