Arcania: Gothic 4 Hints
Shipwreck Notes
1 of 8: The shipwreck on the beach in the second jungle section can be tricky to get around on, especially if you want to use it to reach a Beliar artifact and a forgotten grave that are otherwise unreachable.
2 of 8: On what's left of the ship's deck, jump across the board gap that's just past the chest, then look to the right for a big plank sticking out over the water that you can walk onto.
3 of 8: The Beliar artifact is down on a plank that's slanting into the water. Walk to the end of the plank you're on, then turn to face the artifact and see if you can walk down to it. If not, you'll have to jump. Be sure to quicksave before trying since you'll instantly die if your head goes underwater.
4 of 8: After you get the artifact, turn around and walk up the slanty plank as far as you can, then turn toward the ship and jump to get back onto its deck.
5 of 8: The forgotten grave is on the patch of ground that's north of the ship's eastern end. To get to it, you'll have to jump over there from on the ship's railing.
6 of 8: Go up to the spot on the railing near the ship's east end where the top rail is broken off. After quicksaving, jump onto the lower rail. That can be very hard to do without overshooting and falling into the water. You might want to try facing the rail at an angle instead of straight-on.
7 of 8: Once you get onto the lower rail, turn and jump onto the upper rail. Move along it a short way, then quicksave again before attempting the jump over to the patch of ground you can see to the north.
8 of 8: Once you make it, look all around for loot, including a king's sorrel plant and the forgotten grave. When you're ready to leave, go back over to the ground's edge and jump from the rocks back to the ship (after quicksaving, of course).
