Collectable items quests.

[Tiny Trees]

The Forgotten Graves
The Staues of Lord Dominique
Hatred's Reaper
Ancient Relics

Of these four quest I am not managing to collect very many. I have about thriteen statues and a couple of the other types, but that's it. I am maybe 66% thought the game.

Anyway I googled the quest to find out what I could, and work out why I have found so few of them. The items are spread fairly equally along the game so really I have just missed them.

I am wondering now if I should travel all the way back to search again. The prizes for completing these quests are brilliant. However I searched thoroughly anyway as I have played. They must be well hidden. I mean I look everywhere, always around the back of things. You can't miss the items because they glow when you are near them. Maybe I should just use the online guides to where they are and go get them all.

To be honest they are a lot of work whichever way I go. Otherwise I really like Arcania.

Does anyone advise I go back and get the collectables.

I have come to a stop in playing. It's coz where I am in the Black Gourges, there is a ledge and when I drop down I can't return. It is possible to get back up, but it's hard and not certain. I did it once but can't do it anymore.

I think it depends on what type of character you are:
Innos Statues - The health regen from this item is huge. Definitely worth it
Beliartifacts - Only useful for a ranged character, I never used it as melee
Relics - I don't think the torch does anything, and the robe is obviously for mages
Graves - The rune seems nice, but I beat the game pretty easily without it.

Long story short, find a guide and grab the Innos statues. You'll be glad you did.

Good grief. 'Beliartifacts'? Seriously? *facepalm*

Why not Innostatues? Adanostuff?

Granted, Gothic didn't take itself too seriously, but this is a fricking disgrace. On top of the mere existance of this game.

Edit: Health regen? Health REGEN? HEALTHREGENDSKFNGM;;S:...fsd*beeeeeeeeeeep*

Yeah I was wondering too if there was a chance to find a good ring that would do the same job anyway. I have not moved on yet though and have the game on hold. No worries. Thanks for your thoughts.

(Nothing wrong with health regen though, coz this is a world of magic. I like Arcania - lots. Fair enough if you don't.)

Ahhh no stuff just got worse.

Recall the point in the Black Gorges where you jump down a mini cliff. That was where I was when I was opening this thread. I was deciding whether to go back and get the collectibles. Anyway I just played on end forwent the collectibles.

However later on you end up near the start of the game. You end up with more action in a new bit of map close to where it all started. I thought about a couple of bits I had left undone. Instead of just getting on with the game, I set off walking from the start. I walked all the way, jumped down the cliff by the Black Gorges. I press on to find they have locked a gate further on.

Now I can't go forward. Neither can I go back. While I may be lucky and have a save file to rescue myself with, this stinks. Really bad on the part of the developers.

If you're very lucky you can jump back up the little cliff. I did it once ages ago, but now when I need to, I can't.
