Garcia's Treasure | Maracai Bay - Quests Risen 2 Guide

Maracai Bay

Antigua

This quest is part of: Steelbards's Artefact

You receive this quest after reading Garcia's logbook on his ship [#1] (see: Garcia's Logbook). You'll need to use the boat on the beach [#2] to reach it. The captain's thugs will wait for you to finish them (see: Seize Garcia's Ship) - there're quite challenging, so it's better to have some companions with you.

Enter Garcia's office and on the desk next to the bed you should see a Map (see: The Treasure on the Pirate Coast) and a book - Garcia's logbook. Read to learn the location of the captain's hideout and the password that will allow you to open its gates (see: Open Sesame). You'll also complete the quest The Password which you might have gotten on Antigua if you looked inside the gates under the waterfall (even if not, the quest will still be completed).

Fighting a spider is no trifle - be prepared!

This is when you need to talk to Patty [#3] (which ends the Search Garcia's Possessions quest) and sail to Antigua. There, go to the waterfall [#4] under which you'll find a Strange gate. Stand in front of it and say the password that you got from the logbook ("long live Garcia!"), and the way will be opened for you (you'll also complete the Open Sesame quest). Proceed forward, but watch out for Cave Bats and be ready for a Grave Spider [#5] - your companions' help will be much appreciated here. When the threat is over, approach the spot marked by the huge X [#6] and dig out the treasure that's buried there. If you open the chest and take the Earth Amulet, you'll complete the main quest - Steelbeard's Artefact.

The treasure has been buried at the very edge of the clearing.

Two things to sum up:

• To get more Glory points for completing this quest, you can combine it with Garcia's Ship - sooner or later you're going to visit that location, and more experience always comes in handy.
• There is an alternative way to complete this quest - available only to those players who on the Sword Coast have joined the Natives. If so, you can sail to the Isle of the Dead and Steelbeard's ghost for the location of the treasure (see: Talk to Steelbeard's Ghost).

Rewards:

• 200 Glory points for completing the quest;
• 100 Glory points for each Cave Bat killed;
• 200 Glory points for each Grave Spider killed;
• 100 Glory points for each Ship guard killed;
• 75 Glory points for killing the fat Ship guard.
