Arcania: Gothic 4 Hints
Bring Vultus' hat
1 of 6: Exit the Tooshoo tree and run around on the wooden plank boardwalk until you reach the militia-guarded bridge near the SW corner.
2 of 6: Go west along the path past that bridge until you reach another small bridge, then turn south before crossing it.
3 of 6: Watch out for lurkers and muck wasps as you make your way straight south. You'll eventually come to a rock formation surrounding a path that leads to some underground ruins. (Note that it's straight south from the path split shown on the map west of Tooshoo.)
4 of 6: Enter the ruins cautiously, ready to retreat when the first orc sees you so you can fight him alone. Besides him, there's a lizard and another orc in the ruins' entry room.
5 of 6: The second room has three orcs and a snapper, and the room to the NE of that has three more orcs. You'll want to use the lead-them-off strategy to keep from having to fight them all at once.
6 of 6: Once the NE room is clear, look for the straw hat you're after on the floor next to one of the campfires.
