Arcania: Gothic 4 Hints

Hagen's Spy

  • 1 of 6: NOTE: This quest only has the one objective "Find the old ruins in the jungle," so no objective list will be given.

    Leave the monastery and go back down the path to the split where you trashed some skeletons before. This time, go north to reach the now-open gate to the Black Gorges area.
  • 2 of 6: Move down the gorge path and talk to Bartur if you want an optional quest, then proceed past him slowly. There are three fire lizards ahead, and unlike those fire golems in the monastery, they *can* shoot fireballs at you from a distance.
  • 3 of 6: Use ranged attacks to get their attention one at a time, then dodge their fireballs while either continuing your ranged attacks or charging in for melee attacks.
  • 4 of 6: After they're all dead, take the NW path to find four obsidian skeletons to smash. Past them are two more fire lizards, followed by another fire lizard, followed by an obsidian golem and two skeletal archers.
  • 5 of 6: A bit north of that is a path split. If you take the left path and continue north from there, you'll encounter several skeletons and two fire lizards on your way to the jungle entrance. If you instead take the right path and stick with it, you'll encounter a bunch of fire lizards and two obsidian golems.
  • 6 of 6: However you get to the jungle entrance, go on in to enter the Jungle and Mountains region, where this quest will continue.
