Did we miss anything on this map? Is there something we didn't discover? Let us know!
This quest is the game's tutorial. It should be straightforward to complete. Just follow the
instructions given to you, and look for the gold stars on the mini-map. Gold stars show where
quest-related NPCs are located. Such NPCs will also have an orange "?" over their head.
NPCs with a blue "i" over their head can provide you with useful tutorial information.
You might want to talk to them as well.
Drevin is the only companion you'll receive for this quest. He's only level 1, but
he has a level 3 "brutal attack" power, and so he should be able to kill anything you come across
in a single hit, provided he's using a melee weapon. It takes powers a while to recharge, so
save his power for when you need it (such as at #4 and #5).
If you'd rather not travel with Drevin, then you can give your party the "wait" order
(you might need to go to options->input->hotkeys to set up the hotkey for this party
order). That will cause the non-selected party member to stand still and not move
with the selected character. However, while you can solo all of the enemies in the tutorial,
there are a few gates where you'll have to have Drevin with you so that you can continue. If you
want, you can make "minor resurrect" Drevin's active attack. Then he'll follow along with you but
not do anything.
Finally, during the tutorial, Drevin will make mention of his medallion. The medallion is Quest
Item 1, and, as such, you'll only see it by opening your journal (by pressing "J") and selecting
the "quest items" entry under the "lore items" tab. For a complete list of the lore items, see the
lore items section.
Note: Your character will start with a
hero's amulet and a
hero's ring. These are just regular
objects that can be worn or sold at any time. The
hero's amulet isn't the same as Drevin's
medallion.
1 - Starting Point
2 - Transport
If you walk inside the transport, you'll find a chest that you can loot. Most chests in the game
are random, but this one is fixed. Inside you'll find a stout broken leaf jerkin,
a warped short bow, some potions, and some gold.
3 - Field Hospital
One of the shelves here will drop an endless supply of resurrect scrolls. However, all
of the scrolls will disappear after you've completed the tutorial.
When you exit the hospital, you'll catch a glimpse of Amren. You'll see him again in Act 1,
but you won't be able to recruit him as a companion until Act 2. See the
pets and companions section for details.
4 - Tough Battles
You'll have some tough battles with ketrils and more starting here, so be prepared.
5 - Infused Ketril
The infused ketril is an example of an elite enemy. You'll recognize these enemies because
they'll always have a glowing orange ring on the ground around their feet. Elite enemies are
tougher than regular enemies, but they tend to drop better loot.
6 - Ending Point
When you exit the cave, a cut scene will start up. Drevin will be killed (note to self:
don't ask Valdis when you're going to get paid), you'll be captured, and the tutorial will
come to an end.
7 - Temple
You should only see the temple in a cut scene (see #6). If the cut scene ends and you find
yourself in the temple rather than in jail in
Eirulan, then you've encountered a bug, and
you'll need to load your game.
