SPOILERS Secret tavern SE from Domed City question SPOILERS

[Radorin]

I tried to find info but had no luck. South from Domed City direction World Heart and then East about same distance on top of Mountain north from Windmills I have found place guarded by 2 Roatboars outside and 3 Mutants inside. At first it looked like abandoned dungeon entrance but inside I have found "Secret tavern". It looks like tavern, has some loot inside with forbidden tag. But it`s empty. One body right before entrance - some Beserker. Behind the Bar stays scarecrow with pot on his head. And in the back lies body of some guy named Baldvin. Near him there is a chest labelled Baldvin`s chest. I loted key (with quest item tag on it) from his body to open the chest. Inside there is elex and some minor item. So my question is - what is this place? I can guess its for a quest. But if Baldvin is dead did I miss sth? Oh, one more thing. Looting his chest gave me no exp.

Yeah failed find more too, a problem is I found it only at replay, if found at first play it would have give me a chance to investigate better at replay.

I agree with you it's hard to believe there isn't something here.

[Radorin]

Well it maybe a remenant of things that were cancelled before release. In most cases, even if I didn`t get the quest yet, I still get quest exp for talking to someone, killing sth quest related. etc. Here I got nothing for finding this place, looting Baldvin and opening his chest. At least it din`t show usual info. So maybe it`s some leftover

down the hill some there a small berzeker camp with more dead berzeker and some mutants. there a journal there talking about that bar and their newest berzerker sneaking off there alot,.,.i think this is one of many small life stories you find throughout the planet showing what ppl go through(after effects of it: there usually journals detailing what going on) but yeah it would been nice to beable to enter act with these ppl before the sad events had happen. would made larger impact. hehe image jax having do a live story on that stage.

[Radorin]

If You mean camp by small lake south from tavern I found it too. It maybe some lore element as You suggested but Baldvin is named character (named ones usually play some role) and his chest key is labelled quest item. Also chest is named Baldvin`s Chest. But lore is always nice and small diversions from killing mobs and worl-saving could be nice too. Like being actor in Witcher 3 to find Doppler :)

[Dorok]

Same feeling than you, some stuff started and unfinished but let here for extra lore and mood and some smiles/humor.

The NPC name could be just for linking NPC and chest, and/or a remnant of planed quest transformed in lore/mood/background story

Well, I'm in this secret tavern myself trying to get the key. Problem I have is a corpse is hanging 'under the floor' spinning (according to my bio-glasses)... but I cannot highlight him for nothing to access and GET the key to open the chest :( *grumble*bugs*grumble*

[Radorin]

So far (140h+) I had only 2 mobs and 5-6 herbs under textures. Maybe 2-3 floating in the air. My Baldvin was dead as he should be and fully lootable. On the other hand it may be thx to last patch.

[Frigidman]

When using glasses... theres all kinds of items 'just under' the ground in various locations. I've begun to accept that "Loot the Planet" is not gonna happen ;)

I could find some info about this place, in one of the chests in the Berserkers' village there's a crumpled note, it was written by a father to his son and when you read it it hints at a "secret tavern" in the mountains which apparently will take "Very good care" of the son in question if he tips the barkeeper.

It looks like the tavern is actually a hidden brothel and apparently it got overran by mutants and people got killed, perhaps Baldvin is actually the barkeeper the note hints about.

[Radorin]

Nice find :) Gratz. Next time I`ll log will try to find it or maybe I already have that one. Thx for sharing

Since it wasn't in the chest I went to the tavern expecting to find that Alb energy weapon that's mentioned in a related note on Hakon. But I was unable to find it anywhere..

So is it just some troll-bait to send you on a wild goose chase or can that weapon be found somewhere..?

[Radorin]

Haven`t seen energy weapon there, sorry

[Jhonny G]

Hmm.. If someone knows something about this I would like to hear it since I'm pretty sure it's one of those unmarked quests. Unless it's pure troll-bait or cut content.

What I have found so far..
- Hakon got a note saying 'to put Stormsons(?) confiscated energy weapon in his chest'.
- His chest is empty but got a note to his son saying 'take the elex and go to the tavern'.
- At the tavern you find Hakon's son corpse(presumably), but no energy weapon or clue.
- What's next, did I miss something???

[Radorin]

Stormson is a person from one of the quests. First You meet him when he speaks to the named woman in Golieth. Then You can talk to him about his opinions on Berserkers laws. Then he is arrested and send to death. But his escort ends dead and abovementioned woman sends You on quest to find him. While Angrim wants him dead. he can be found in some mine.
