Stuck on Clue 4 of Treasure hunt... - by Neojin

Well...I must say the puzzles in this game at times are down right rediculously vauge. Basicaly its 5% skill and the rest is luck when finding items or figuring out clues. If anyone is this far I would appreciate the help.
It simply says (....#4 South East Corner)
Which I assume means Level 4...
The weirdest part, is the German version also had a problem with this part. I gathered from a German Walkthrough that their clue said Level 3, South West corner...which was suposed to be South East. Now im guessing in the US version they mean Level 3 and put #4.
Sigh... Guess back to the main story plot for me.

Care to share how you got this quest? *hopeful* ;)
Neojin on 8/11/2002 at 19:28
I'll give a clue hows that? ;)
*SPOILERS*
I'm sure if ya have played the demo several times, you noticed the inscription upstairs on the Inn's wall. "Emerald leads the way...blah blah"
Well after seeing that, I decided to use an emerald to try and unlock chests I could not pick. A ways into the game I finaly came apon one...and from there the the "hunt" began.
I wanted to post at the JoWood forums too...but they STILL have not sent an email back, so more and likely i'll have to register again.
Its a great game, with a great feel. But unfortunantly a person still gets stuck in random objects quite often, so quicksave alot...also, not once since the "rope puzzle" have I even had to do any puzzles like that. Most so far have been totaly random and I feel blind through most of them.

Perfect, thanks ;) I think I may even know the chest to start at, given AS's reaction to it; now I just need to find/buy an emerald, seeing as I've already mined and sold 'em all from the
troll caves. Speaking of which, anyone else get a distinct sense of deja vu in there and expect to see a sleestack pop up? ;)

I can't even find the second clue! Where exactly in the troll mines is it? I've tried digging by all the signs that say "X", but no luck.

yes please tell me too how to find the clues. i was looking in all the troll mines, and also where it said from the arx.rpgdot.com walkthrough, but i couldnt find it.
and do i have to dig? how do i even dig, i never bought a shovel and never tried it ;)

FWIW, there's some shovels just inside the Goblin Kingdom (the place with the gate that you initially can't talk the goblin into opening), on the left; it's dark and there are some rats. As to how to dig, I'd imagine it's by 'use'ing the shovel ('f', 'enter', or whatever you've assigned it as)

There's a rock on the floor in one of the troll mine chambers, which will highlight but not frob. Use the pickaxe on it, and look carefully, the note is small.

Ok, I found it. The note seems to be clipping into the ground, so only a small corner of it is visible.

Where is "the room under the prison" for the 3rd clue?
I think it is the room you jump into when you escape the prison through the trapbut I tried using the "reveal" spell everywhere in the place without succes.
*** EDIT ***
OK. I just found the room!
It's not really under the gob prison but under Greu(k)'s teleporter : in the room behind the fragile wall, where the mellow spider was in the demo... where is this spider now?.
