Might and Magic IX Hints
Notes and Extras
1 of 4: You can explore the entire castle except for the secret tunnels without angering the guards, so when you're on the quest to convince the Dook to leave, you can go around looting treasure chests and stat barrels without provoking the guards if you want to.
2 of 4: One of the harder-to-find chests is right behind the Dook's throne.
3 of 4: When you come across tiny little baby Basilisks in the tunnels, try to shoot them from a distance. If you approach them, they'll scurry off, never to be seen again.
4 of 4: There's a black chest underwater in the big wooden bridge room at the SE end of the secret tunnels. It's right next to the large rock platform that leads to the northern exit. (The chest is on the west side of the rock at the bottom of the water.) Watch out, because it has a Lock Difficulty of 24, which requires either a level 12 expert or a level 8 master of Disarm Trap.
