Sharing the fruits of my exploration

[[GRVTS]Fat Bastard]

Beware ye I will be sharing my finds and where they are. Anyways you were warned and I made everything a spoiler, so don't get mad at me ok. I just wanna share my finds with anyone who want to look.

So, there is a blue axe fairly easy to get SW of the logging camp. There are two bandits guarding it. North of the logging camp through a bunch of water you'll eventually come upon a cave, and this cave leads to a whole upper area which to my knowledge has no other entry point. It's pretty tough getting through everything, but I've found Excalibur and a Epic Axe alongside a host of things in this area. Very high end I was clearly not suppose to be here in act 1, but I did it anyways.

West of the remnant camp are a variety of runes with various treasures to take, and underground areas to explore. I don't recall most of the loot, but nothing really stood out to my knowledge. The bear cave on the road between the Inn and Remnant camp has another blue quality axe, and logically you should be able to just run in loot chest and run. I don't know if this works since I killed the bear, but I think you can do that.

Screenshot of my map. I've ink marked everything I thought was notable that I've found so far. Mostly caves.

Thanks for sharing, I appreciate it. Have any idea as to where the bandit base is for missing? Or how to follow the lights for the talisman quest?

No I haven't done missing yet. I've just recently got to nemeton because I was busy exploring the world map as much as I could.

If you haven't killed the spoilery bandits yet, I would recommend that you just allow yourself to be kidnapped by them. It's an interesting side quest that doesn't take all that long.

Something I just found.

So if you look at my screenshot and see the ink marker in the middle of the map? A purple sword is there called Berserker Blade 60 prowess 80 dmg 6 focus. To get to it you have to find 4 hidden bricks in the area to unlock the secret passage. You'll probably have to kill the harpies. You have to hold the inspect button to find the bricks.

No idea

Ok another find, and this is pretty big. In that northern area I talked about around the area with excalibur you should've noticed footprints, and you have to follow those. It leads to an area (which I'm 100% certain is supposed to be found later in the game) with a guy there. If you talk to him three times he turns aggro, and you can beat him if you kite him with ritual daggers and poison daggers. Bring cluster bombs too and so on. Don't even attempt to fight him normally and avoid his attacks at all costs. He drops a legendary twin dagger and epic bow.

Big find for the dagger boys.

North of the logging camp I'm not seeing any way to get to the upper area. If I remember correctly, this is a cave where I saw some random woman kill the large beast, and she paid me some coins because "I saw her."

Beyond that, there is some scree which is a way to get down from the upper area, but I'm not seeing a way up. Any help?
