DIGGERS QUEST
This page is dedicated to a current play through Gothic using the most powerful Digger armor, the best pickaxe I could find, and a few magic artifacts.  Spells and stronger weapons when the quests call for them and that's it.  This should be painful.
Ahh.... day one.  Having broken into all of Gomez' rooms in the castle, I was ready for the upgraded digger armor.  Augmented by an amulet of stoneskin, I was ready for action.  With 30 points of protection, I was feeling invincible to the scavengers and mole rats who were threatening me moments before.  With all that in mind, I set out with my trusty rusty pickaxe (Orechipper) to do a little hunting.  Lizards, it turns out, are a little tougher than scavengers.  These three tenacious fellows did fall to the might of Orechipper... probably because I'm dumping every point into strength as fast as I can get it.

Despairing at the (lack of) progress, my hero made a fateful decision.  If I'm going to be a digger, I am going to tbe the ONLY Digger.  A short nap until midnight... and Old Camp was a ghost town come morning.  Unlike Lizards and Lurkers, Diggers respect Orechipper...
