Gothic 3 Hints

Talk to the leader of the rebels!

  • 1 of 14: After Ardea's liberated, find Hamlar standing next to a table near Ardea's NW exit and talk to him to get this mission.
  • 2 of 14: He refers you to Gorn, who's at the nearby campfire with Milten and Diego.
  • 3 of 14: Talk to all three of them to get referred to Lester, who's out on the beach.
  • 4 of 14: Leave Ardea through its NW exit and then go left at the path split.
  • 5 of 14: You'll soon find Lester near a campfire and a couple of ramshackle buildings.
  • 6 of 14: Talk to him to learn that pirates stole your stuff, and to be referred back to Diego in Ardea.
  • 7 of 14: After looting the two nearby buildings, return to Ardea. (Use the teleporter stone if you got it from Hamlar's table earlier.)
  • 8 of 14: Talk to Diego until you're out of conversation topics, then talk to Gorn.
  • 9 of 14: Ask him to show you where the rebels are if you want him to escort you to their base at Reddock.
  • 10 of 14: You can head west from Ardea and find Reddock on your own, but it's easier if Gorn shows you. (And you'll get some bonus XP.)
  • 11 of 14: When you arrive at Reddock, talk to Gelford and tell him you came from Ardea to learn that the rebel leader you want to talk to is in the cavern.
  • 12 of 14: Go through the nearby cave opening and down the tunnel until you reach the cavern, then use the winding path to reach the cavern's bottom floor.
  • 13 of 14: Find Javier somewhere near the main campfire and talk to him about freeing Ardea from the orcs to finish this mission and get 1000 XP and a Rebel rep point.
  • 14 of 14: Return to Ardea sometime to find it populated with rebel guards, and talk to Hamlar to get 500 XP for getting the rebels sent there.
