Arcania: Gothic 4 Hints

Recover Digger's alembic from his old cave

  • 1 of 5: Go back outside and find the nearby path branch that leads south.
  • 2 of 5: Follow the path along, fighting goblins and other hostiles as you encounter them, until you reach the mine's other entrance.
  • 3 of 5: It looks like it's barricaded with planks, but there's a wooden door that you can open and go through.
  • 4 of 5: You'll encounter three goblins before you go very far into the mine, one of which is a shaman. After you kill them, go through their room and on to an area with several molerats.
  • 5 of 5: Past that, go down a sort of rocky ramp, then turn right and look in a small side room for a table with the Digger's Alembic on it. (Note that taking the scroll that's on the same table will start the long-term quest "The Forgotten Graves.")
