Do you have to find all the dragon eggs in chapter 4?

[JohnJSal]

I'm reading an FAQ (pre-NotR) and it mentions how the dragon egg quest is easily missed since you get it in VoM but actually find the eggs in Khorinis. Does this mean you have to return to Khorinis in chapter 4, when you get the quest, and find them all? Or can it be done in chapter 5 when you return?

Also, how many do you need to make the strength potions for a mercenary?

Thanks!

Do you even listen to the dragons when they talk to you? I think it was the Ice Dragon who tells you that they're spreading their brood across the countryside. Which means that in the 5th chapter you'll get a quest for it. You just find the first dragon egg in the Valley of mines, because that one you can find as every class.

There are several quests that involve delivering/using dragon eggs.

If you're playing as a mercenary/dragon hunter, you will get the quest to collect dragon eggs for the blacksmith Bennet in chapter 5, which will provide you with gold and XP for each egg that you deliver to him.

As Paladin or Mage, you can give the dragon egg that you find in the cave of the ice dragon to the mage Neoras, who will make you a potion.

Later in Irdorath, you can make the potion "Embarla Firgasto" by yourself, using ten dragon eggs, a black pearl and sulphur. Since only the dragon hunter can find additional eggs in chapter 5, he is the only character who can make this potion twice by saving up 9 eggs before going to Irdorath.

No need to be rude about it. The ice dragon is the only one I haven't defeated yet, because I wasn't sure if that would trigger chapter 5 when I left VoM.

Thanks! So I'll be able to make two potions as long as I find 20 eggs before I leave for that place?

Once you go to chapter 6 (Irdorath), you can't go back to Khorinis. In Khorinis, you can find (i believe) 13 eggs. In chapter 6, you can only find 11 eggs, so you need to save 9 eggs before starting chapter 6.

Wow, this answered the question I was just about to ask! I didn't know how the whole dragon egg thing worked, how many were where, why people kept saying to save nine of them, etc.

You just made it all perfectly clear! Thank you! :-)
