Might and Magic IX Hints
Notes and Extras
1 of 7: There's a treasure chest in the bandit camp that's just north of the passage that leads to the Thing, and another one in the small house next to the Thjorad Mine entrance (SE corner of the map).
2 of 7: The treasure chests in this area regenerate every time you leave and reenter the area. That means you can pump the chest in the house next to the Thjorad Mine by raiding it, entering and exiting the mine, raiding it again, etc.
3 of 7: In the NE section of the map, you can get more experience by quickly killing the Bandits and Magreeb yourself instead of letting them kill each other (or, in the case of one Magreeb, run away).
4 of 7: There's a pedestal at the north end of the passage that leads to the Thjorad Mine that can add 10 points to Magic skill temporarily.
5 of 7: There's a cauldron near the Thjorad Mine entrance that will add a permanent +5 to everyone's Elemental resistance.
6 of 7: If you let the Bandits in the camp near the Thing run away, they'll return with some Icky friends of theirs.
7 of 7: You can encounter Bandits at night in the passageway south of the city.
