Two questions for the experienced KCD players [solved]

[Humpenstilzchen]

1. I started the questline were you have to clear out banditcamps from bernard. I cleared the first camp without problems but made a mistake at the second one nearby of rattay northwest of it.
I was supposed to kill the bandid leader but he surrendered badly wounded and I let him go not knowing he was actually the leader.
He then fled and but didn´t get far away since he bled out. I can´t finish this quest now and the questmarler stays at the spot where he died.
My question is: Will a new bandit leader spawn there after a while and give me another chance of completing this quest or am I stuck here?

2. I often experience that bandits or kumans surrender, does it have any effect on my reputation if I still kill them?
They are scum after all and when I let them live they will just go on and rob/kill people again.
I know about this honor thing where you are being told that you should not kill people who surrender, but does it really have any effect ingame at all?

If not I will kill them all without mercy.

He should respawn. Check the map for that camp if it's still highlighted with a marker.
All you need do if you can is rob his body of the spurs and the capt helmet then your good to go, hand them in.
With regards to honour I wouldn't apply this in quests especially this one as you get a better reputation with town since your cleaning out the bandits.
Aside from the capt kill them all and collect their bandit ears for more groschion as Bernard will buy them.
This quest has a lot more kill the capt bandits ahead of you.
Don't kill towns people or their villagers nor rob them. :)

Bandit camps do respawn, but also when you skip looting a quest Lost and Found may appear and you should be able to grab quest items that you've missed at the Rattay presbytery

I don't think sparing coomans has any effect. Seems to be purely roleplaying choice

Thx a lot for the quick reply.
Well, it´s been quite a few ingame days since this "accident" happened and so far the marker is still at the spot where he died, maybe I need to wait even longer.

The camp itself is not highlighted anymore, just the beforementioned leader and I can´t take his ears because the game thinks I didn´t kill him due to me letting him go and him bleeding out. Although I have caused it the game doesn´t count this as a kill.

And I´m looking forward to more quests like this, it´s fun to kill bandits =) I hope this problem will sort out soon by itself and I can progress more in this questline.

Thx, I´ll try that. =)

I checked the presbytery in Rattay but nothing so I went back to the place where the body of the bandid leader is and this is all there is when trying to loot him again:

No ears unfortunately.

You were right! The fist time I was there I had overseen the door where the chest is.
I found the ear and the quest is now completed.

Thx a lot!

Where exactly is this chest? I have "lost and found" as a side quest, and I just opened a chest inside the Rattay presbytery, but didn't see any quest items. Did I open the wrong chest?

When you enter the house there is one room to the left and two rooms to the right, it´s the second one on the right side.
