Arcania: Gothic 4 Hints
Tooshoo Tree Treasure Tour
1 of 14: Navigating your way around the huge Tooshoo tree and finding all the treasure in it that's marked on the Marshland Map can be very confusing. This little tour will take you around and make sure you find it all.
2 of 14: After you cross Leboras' bridge, go over to the stairs that lead up into the tree, but don't go up them. Instead, turn left and run along the boardwalk. After you go up some stairs and down some more, move along the boardwalk until you come to some more stairs.
3 of 14: Go up them to reach a hut with a chest in it, then go back down them and back the way you came. Return to the stairs near Leboras' bridge that go into the Tooshoo tree and go up them this time.
4 of 14: In the room with the teleporter, go up the first two sets of stairs, then turn left and go through the short "tree tunnel" to reach an outside boardwalk. Look in the hut to your immediate left for a couple of cut vials on a table.
5 of 14: Go down the stairs next to that hut to find another hut. Look inside it for an old torch on a crate, then go down the short set of stairs past it if you want the rusty saw that's next to the long set of stairs that lead down to the lower boardwalk.
6 of 14: Don't go down to the lower boardwalk, but instead go back up to where you exited the "tree tunnel" earlier. Go past the tunnel exit and enter the next hut to find a chest to loot.
7 of 14: Leave the hut through its other exit, then go down the stairs and look behind the junk that's piled behind the stairs for an Elixir of Prowess. Go down the two sets of stairs to the west if you want to find an Elixir of Strength behind some barrels on the lower boardwalk, then go all the way back up to the "tree tunnel" you exited earlier.
8 of 14: Go back into the tree through the tunnel, then go up the next set of stairs and back outside through the tunnel just past it. Check the hut to your immediate right for a blunt knife on the table, an Innos statuette on a bundle on the floor, and a Strong Healing Potion on a shelf.
9 of 14: Go up the stairs near that hut to reach another one. Get the Beliar artifact that's on the floor next to a set of shelves and a crate, then get the Elixir of Arcane Might that's on one of the tables.
10 of 14: Reenter the tree and turn left, then go thorugh a short "tree tunnel" to reach a small library room. Get the Elixir of Black Bile and two empty scrolls from its shelves, then go outside and turn left.
11 of 14: Behind the barrels is an Innos statuette. After quicksaving, jump onto the barrels and move to where you can get the statuette, then turn around and run back onto the boardwalk, jumping if necessary. It can be tricky, so quickrestore and try again if you fall.
12 of 14: Enter the other small library room to find a crafting recipe scroll for muck wasp arrows on one of the shelves. Since Calamus won't open that room's locked door for you yet, that's all the tree looting you can do until you finish the first objective of the "Welcome to the Sanctuary" main quest.
13 of 14: Go through the door after Calamus opens it for you, then go up the first set of stairs on your left. Past a doorway and a short tree tunnel, go down the stairs and enter the hut to find an Elixir of Arcane Might on a large wooden crate.
14 of 14: The only other tree treasure is in the room where you find Icarius' body while working on the "A Hot Lead" main quest.
