Gothic 3 Hints

Approval from the ore smelters

  • 1 of 7: Ingvar gives you this mission after you finish "Ingvar wants a sword."
  • 2 of 7: Before he'll teach you how to forge pure ore weapons, he wants you to get the approval of three other ore smelters.
  • 3 of 7: They are Kalan (Fire Clan), Pedar (Hammer Clan), and Larson (Wolf Clan).
  • 4 of 7: Both Kalan and Larson go wandering off as soon as this mission starts. You'll have to find them and help them before you can gain their approval.
  • 5 of 7: Pedar doesn't go wandering, but he does have a mission for you to do.
  • 6 of 7: After you do Pedar's and Larson's missions and speak to Kalan (in whatever order), you'll get 2500 XP, 15 Hammer Clan rep points, eight Nordmar rep points, and Smithing +1.
  • 7 of 7: Report back to Ingvar to *finally* get training from him.
