Start Gothic 1 Remake Chapter 2 by asking Lord Hagen about passing the door. New creatures and merchant stocks appear.
- 1Speak to Lord Hagen and ask him how to get past the door to officially begin Chapter 2.
- 2Be aware that new creatures will appear in previously visited areas.
- 3Visit merchants to see their expanded and refreshed stock, including high-use items like potions and scrolls, and potentially rare herbs from alchemists.
- 4Note that merchants like Bosper and Hakon will also stock improved quality items, such as better bows and swords.
- 5Consider that Mages and Paladins can earn the most experience in Chapter 1 through mercenary and specific quests, with an average level of 10-15 recommended for entering Chapter 2.
- 6When starting Chapter 2, you will be in the city of Khorinis.
- A hunting trip before or at the start of Chapter 2 can yield approximately 1500 experience points (XP) from newly spawned creatures like wolves, Field Raiders, Bloodflies, Molerats, Scavengers, Goblins, Black Goblins, Lurkers, and Lizards.
- Merchants' stock refreshes and expands after each chapter change, so check their inventory for useful items, especially potions, scrolls, and lab flasks. Alchemists may stock rare herbs like Dragonroot or King's Sorrel.
- While you may have better weapons by Chapter 2, remember that merchants' stock improves in quality over time.
- Entering Chapter 2 at a lower level than 10-15 can complicate your progress. Levels near 19-20 are achievable.
- Quests and points of interest are often organized by area number, not necessarily the order you encounter them.
C2.1 - XARDAS' TOWER, THE VALLEY, AND ROAD TO KHORINIS
POINT OF INTEREST: A Strange Amulet
An amulet appears at the start of Chapter 2 in an otherwise empty area on the opposite side of the valley outside Xardas' Tower. To find it, follow the topmost mountainside with it on your left. When the top of the bandit cave is visible across the way, keep following the clearing to the left. You will pass the ledge where lizards were encountered and reach a grassy knoll covered by pine trees. The amulet is in the middle of these trees on the ground.
- If you are a Paladin, you will find an Amulet of Agility (+15 Dexterity).
- If you are a Mercenary, you will find an Amulet of Life (+15 Max HP).
C2.2 - CITY OF KHORINIS
QUEST: Evidence
Lord Hagen's main task for Chapter 2 is to bring him proof of dragons in the Valley of Mines. This quest disappears without fanfare or XP in Chapter 3 after returning to Khorinis.
QUEST: Fernando's Business
Fernando, often found talking to Gerbrandt outside the church, will give you a quest after the chapter change. He is interested in magic ore and wants information about the Valley of Mines. To complete this quest, you must finish the main task in Chapter 2 ("Diggers and Ore"). You can return to Fernando in Chapter 3 to report your findings.
- Reward: Ring of Liveliness (+10 Max HitPoints) and +150 XP upon completion in Chapter 3.
