Welcome to DarkMatters! What version of Sacred 2 are you on? Egad... You managed to survive with the customer dude in the Garganthropod's lair!?! That is pretty impressive! Ok.. You're supposed to go from the beach to East Turbak. From there, you're supposed to go back down to the beach - down to the southern end of it. There's a small island there which you're supposed to cross a small bridge to get to and there you will find a small chest with some goodies. Once you've gotten the goodies, you head back to Capt Jack and lose the annoying little bugger of a "customer". As far as quest rewards go... Can't recall anything super spectacular being dropped by either one. It all depends on your bargaining and EP skills and how high they happen to be. You may wind up losing a set item or two along with the usual stuff you pick up as quest rewards if either are on the high side. But that's about it. Oh wow, thank you SO much! I have the expansion ice and blood installed. I think I'm using the minimum update for that to work. Does 2.40 sound about right? I can check if it really matters. I'm cheating a bit. If the customer dies I alt tab out and close down manually. That way I get extra chances to keep him alive. I'm also switching to the BFG and blasting everything out of the way. I was level 20 when I accidentally stumbled through a cave at the port of the first area (elven area) into the desert. I've just been walking around using mentor potions to level up and trying to work out where to leave the customer. I failed the quest 'new books' because the author died just as I entered a cave, which meant the game saved. I also lost melindor earlier, before I worked out how the game worked. It's really annoying to me to fail a quest. The biggest irritation I have is taht before I worked out the game I didn't realise I had to pick up rewards! Not many games drop rewards on the ground and expect you to pick them up. I bet I've missed so many good things! I was level 20 almost before I realised I'd been missing rewards that way LOL.

I've been trying to keep this guy alive FOREVER. I've explored most of Bangaresh with him and NOTHING. No result! When I select the quest it shows up with a circle around the 'customer', which doesn't tell me where I need to go. When I deselect, it shows up back over Jack Karrow. Nothing tells me where I need to go! When I got the East Turbak, it said something like "yay a real fort, let's GO!" but looking in the journal, nothing seems to have updated. One of the next places I tried to go was south, where there is a lot of scorpions. I went into a temple thing that had statues of giant scorpions. There's a big arena at the end of the temple, with a resurrection monolith. I guess this is where you have to battle a giant scorpion? I didn't activate the resurrection monolith, does that matter? Also the portal there does NOTHING. Finally, No giant scorpion appeared. My map now has a picture of a red giant scorpion on that area, the same way it has a giant red dragon in the far east of Bangaresh where I slew a big a ss dragon. (I had to keep the customer alive during that battle too!) What am I meant to do? Where am I meant to take this guy? I read something about buried treasure we have to find, but I have no idea where. Also Melindor died and so did the author in 'new book' quests. Did I miss any very special rewards? What will I lose if this quest is too bugged to complete?
