Developers from Alkimia Interactive are preparing a lot of surprises in the long—awaited Gothic 1 Remake – the updated version of the iconic RPG will retain its signature hardcore and gray morality, which gamers will see already in the first quests of the Old Camp on PC. One of these markers of authenticity will be a chain of tasks related to Makeup, a cunning rogue who is ready to lure a gullible player into a deadly trap. We tell you how to survive an ambush by the campfire, whether it is worth eliminating an impudent miner and how to get the maximum profit in the form of 200 experience.

Is it worth killing Greem after an ambush in the forest?
Right to the main spoiler, it’s definitely not worth lynching and finishing off Makeup in the remake of “Gothic”. As soon as you scatter his gang, this character admits defeat, wakes up and offers a truce himself. By sparing him, you are guaranteed to take away the legitimate 200 experience for successfully completing the quest. If you send an impudent person to Beliar, the game will simply deprive you of some of the content and potential benefits in the future. Limit yourself to a simple search: you can twist a good starting loot from defeated enemies, including food, a club, and even a lute, which you can then profitably drive to local merchants.
How do I start the Amulet quest in Gothic 1 Remake?
The hidden trigger of this assignment is tied to your diplomatic (or financial) relations with the local racket. The Amulet quest is activated only if the main character flatly refused to pay a daily “tax” to Bloodwin for protection.
After that, the following chain of events is triggered:
-
Search for an accomplice: Grim is hanging around the Old Camp, usually sitting by his hut or warming himself around a campfire with Diego.
-
Tempting offer: After hanging out in the camp, you will receive an offer from Grim to “rob a robber.” He will tell a story about a thief who allegedly stole a valuable amulet right from the ore barons.
-
A walk beyond the walls: The scheme looks simple — the two of you go into a remote forest outside the Old Camp, pick up a tzatzka and divide the jackpot. Of course, this is a clean divorce.
How to survive a Grim Gang attack: tactics for beginners?
There will be an ambush waiting for you at the meeting point in the wilderness of the forest — Grim and his two accomplices will immediately draw their weapons. For the upgraded hero, this trio will be a light snack, but at the start of the game, without a good sword and armor, the clash will turn into a nightmare.
If you feel that you are not taking out an open battle, use a proven feature with the Minental fauna. Quickly lead the aggressive crowd towards the nearest nest of scavengers. Cut circles around monsters, dodging teeth and swords — the artificial intelligence of Gothic 1 Remake will do everything for you, setting birds on bandits. When the scavengers finish off Grim and the company, you will only have to carefully clean up the wounded birds, collect legitimate trophies from the bodies and wait until the instigator of the trap comes to his senses for the final conversation.
