Hunting Loss

How to unlock the quest: Speak to Lennart, located to the south of Goliet.

Lennart, a scholar of Geron, a hunter, resides not far south of Goliet (also encountered during the quest A Berserker Warrior). The above image shows the hunters’ base, which is Lennart’s residence.

Engage in conversation with Lennart and offer to retrieve his bow (or craft a new one with a Crafting level of 1). Before embarking on the quest, speak with Geron, Lennart’s mentor. He will request the bow if found.

Head north to locate the bow, guarded by two Forlorn beasts, which are quite challenging for low-level players. Alternatively, lure the beasts to a nearby meadow where a troll resides and let them fight. Players may also attempt to retrieve the bow and escape. The Lennart’s Bow (400XP) is presented in the above image.

Return to the hunters’ base and deliver the bow to Lennart, receiving 800XP, 3 Pelts, and 15 Elexit. Alternatively, hand over the bow to Geron, causing the quest to cancel and receiving only 80 Elexit.

On the Hunt with Geron / Waiting

How to unlock: Speak to Geron, south of Goliet.

Note – The quest’s title depends on the chosen method of completion.

Hunt with Geron or alone

Geron is a hunter for the Berserkers, located south of Goliet (also encountered during the companion quest A Berserker Warrior). He resides in a ruined building serving as the hunters’ base. During the conversation, players may discuss the presence of raptors in the area. Choose to hunt with Geron (requiring a minimum of 3 points in Combat and successful demonstration of skill for 50XP) or alone. Surprisingly, the former option may not be the best, as Geron may die if the player is too weak to assist in killing the beasts effectively.

Regardless of the chosen method, players must locate the raptors and defeat four standard Roaming Raptors and a stronger Roaming Pack Leader. If accompanied by Geron, attack the same raptor, protecting him. Players working alone (or with a different companion) should use ranged weapons to draw single raptors away from the pack and eliminate them individually. Upon defeating all raptors (1600XP), speak to Geron to receive 250 Elexit and 5 Claws.

Survival Necessities

To unlock this quest, you need to speak with Korin who can be found near the Converter in Eden. The quest-giver will tell you that he lost his weapon while travelling to the converter and you can offer to help him retrieve it.

The weapon is located next to the giant robot Fighting Colossus which is stationed near the entrance to the converter. You can attempt to fight it, but only if your character is at least level 20 and equipped with a great weapon and armor. Alternatively, you can run up to the mech and quickly pick up Korin’s weapon without fighting. Beware of the robot’s strong energy attacks.

Once you have retrieved the weapon, return it to Korin. Completing this quest will give you 800XP.

Clearing the Forest

To unlock this quest, speak with Nezol in Valley of the Damned. The quest involves eliminating a group of Albs who are searching for Separatists in the area.

The Weakened Albs can be found north from the quest-giver and they are equipped with a powerful flamethrower. You can make the battle easier by luring Swamp Spiders to the Albs. Each killed Alb gives you 90XP and eliminating the entire group gives you 800XP. Collect your reward of 250 Elexit from Nezol.

Paranoid

To unlock this quest, speak with Egil in the Exile camp located south of Valley of the Damned. You must kill five Weakened Rotboars in the area around the camp. Each dead monster gives you 125XP and eliminating all of them rewards you with an additional 400XP.

Sounds in the Dark

To unlock this quest, speak with Galar in the Exile camp located south of Valley of the Damned.

To start this quest, speak with Galar in the Exile camp and accept the quest to investigate strange noises coming from the lumberjacks’ camp at night. Use a bedroll to pass the time until nightfall and head to the camp. Once there, you will find a Reaver that you must defeat for 900XP. Return to Galar for 100XP and a new quest. This time, you must find and defeat the leader of a bandit camp.

Note that if you do not find a Reaver at the lumberjacks’ camp at night, a bandit will eventually appear and attack you.

To continue the quest, head east from the Exile camp and cross a large wooden bridge to find a mine entrance. Inside, you will face several Reavers, each worth 150XP. Defeat them and use your jet pack to reach higher levels where you will find the leader, Bloody Ben. You must defeat him for 3625XP. After completing the quest, return to Galar to receive 4 Furs.

The Lift

To unlock this quest, speak with Sten near the Great Lift, a location west of Goliet. During the conversation, you can use Crafting points to show your technical knowledge and earn 100XP. Your task is to find a missing cog. Jump off the cliff, using your jet pack to land safely in the river below. Find the cog and return it to Sten for 100XP.

If you discover that Sten sabotaged the lift, you can either promise to keep his secret for 400XP or refuse, forcing you to fight and defeat him for 100XP.
