Quest branches and services
These branches include alternatives. Check the requirements for each before acting.
Sen's Fortress
Rescue
Requirements: The route behind the breakable wall by the resting serpent soldier is open.
What to do: Open Logan's hanging cage with the Cage Key or Master Key and speak to him.
Result: He moves to Firelink Shrine.
Firelink Shrine
Firelink
Requirements: Logan has been rescued.
What to do: Speak to him to buy sorceries. His Firelink shop requires 15 Intelligence.
Result: His early spell stock is available before his Archives journey.
Consequences and cutoffs: His later Archives shop does not use this Intelligence restriction.
Firelink Shrine
Departure
Requirements: Logan is rescued and you have obtained the Lordvessel.
What to do: His departure conversation can send him to the Archives. If you avoid that conversation, reaching the Archives prison also advances him.
Result: His later stock is obtained at the Archives book room.
Consequences and cutoffs: Buying the early Firelink stock is not a requirement for leaving Firelink.
The Duke's Archives
Archives
Requirements: Logan is in the prison tower cage.
What to do: Use the Archive Tower Giant Cell Key to free him and speak to him.
Result: He moves to the small book room and sells his later sorceries.
Consequences and cutoffs: Defeating Seath early can change this sequence.
The Duke's Archives
Early Seath
Requirements: Seath is defeated before Logan's prison rescue is completed.
What to do: Check the book room for his later merchant state rather than assuming the prison sequence is permanently required.
Result: His later teaching can remain available.
Consequences and cutoffs: Check his actual location after reloading; the standard prison rescue route is the dependable route before Seath dies.
The Duke's Archives
Finale
Requirements: Seath is dead and you have bought all of Logan's spells in the Archives.
What to do: Finish his remaining dialogue and reload. Check Seath's first encounter room for Logan, then revisit his former shop room.
Result: The final encounter provides his hat, crystal catalyst and White Dragon Breath; a separate chest holds his other equipment.
Consequences and cutoffs: Killing him before the final encounter can prevent the equipment chest from appearing.
The Duke's Archives
Murder Cutoff
Requirements: Logan has not completed his final hostile transition.
What to do: Finish the later shop, post-Seath conversations and final encounter if you want his complete equipment sequence.
Result: The final encounter and book-room chest supply different parts of the reward.
Consequences and cutoffs: Killing his friendly form early can lose the later equipment chest.
