Arx Fatalis Hints
Where is Oliver's chest?
1 of 6: The chest can be found on Level 4.
2 of 6: On this level you'll find an empty chest in the middle of a cave. This chest is not Oliver's, but Oliver's is nearby.
3 of 6: There's a door in this cave which can be opened with thief's tools or by bashing it with a weapon. Behind the door is Oliver's room.
4 of 6: Oliver doesn't appear to be in, but he did leave you a note in one of the chests here. Remember his directions from the sign in the tavern?
5 of 6: You'll need an emerald to unlock one of the chests in this room. Emeralds can be purchased from the Goblin King and the jeweler in the City of Arx. They can also be found in the Crystal Caves on Level 2, either by using a pickaxe on the gems embedded in the rock walls, or searching the lair of the Werespider.
6 of 6: Use an emerald on the chest (by double-clicking) to open it. Inside is a note from Oliver and his first clue.
