Gothic 3 Hints

A shadowbeast horn for Pedar.

  • 1 of 5: After starting the "Approval from the ore smelters" mission, talk to Pedar at his home a ways SE of the Wolf Clan village to get this mission.
  • 2 of 5: He wants a horn from a shadowbeast, so go find one and de-horn it.
  • 3 of 5: You can often find shadowbeasts near blood-splattered spots on the ground.
  • 4 of 5: You have to kill a shadowbeast on the Fire Clan's "Baldar's tomb" mission, so you might want to get it that way.
  • 5 of 5: In any case, give a shadowbeast horn to Pedar to get his approval plus 2000 XP, three Hammer Clan rep points, and Smithing +1.
