Opening the chest belonging to Mud is just one of the numerous little chests that you may stumble upon while exploring the area known as the Old Camp within Gothic 1 Remake. While the loot is not very valuable at all, the chest is relatively easy to find and will allow you to test your lockpicking abilities. If you are collecting all the chests in the game, then unlocking this chest will not take too much time. Here’s where to find Mud’s chest and the exact lockpicking sequence needed to open it.
How to Open Mud’s Chest
Mud’s chest can be found in the tiny hut in the Old Camp. You will find the hut right next to the castle gate, near a big cauldron where Snaf always starts his morning. Just enter the hut, and there will be a chest in front of you. This will be a quick job since the hut can be easily accessed from the Old Camp. Here are the lockpicking sequences for opening the chest:
- Move the 2nd plate to the right two times.
- Move the 3rd plate to the left one time.
- Move the 1st plate to the left one time.
- Move the 3rd plate to the left one more time.
- Move the 1st plate to the left again.
- Move the 4th plate to the left four times.
- Move the 5th plate to the left one time.
- Move the 1st plate to the left another time.
- Move the 4th plate to the left once.
- Move the 5th plate to the left three times.
As long as you follow all these steps correctly, the chest should now open up, giving you all the contents inside the chest. The reward for opening the chest of Mud is three Ore Nuggets as well as other basic household items such as Bread, Jug, and Plate. Although the rewards are not very useful, they can be of use to those exploring the area.
