In Chapter 4 you will receive Xardas quest in which you’ll need to locate Xardas’ Tower. Continuing will require you to defeat the Fire, Stone and Ice Golems to gather their hearts. This guide provides details on travelling to the tower, how to locate the golems, and what dialogue selection to use once you complete the quest.
How to Find Xardas’ Tower
Head south from the Old Camp toward the uncharted Orc Territory. While the tower is large enough to spot from a distance, the route leading to it can be easy to miss.
From the location of the lake, look toward the huge cliff ahead. Proceed toward it until you are close enough to the cave, then walk on the path leading up to the cave. Keep going to the top of the cliff until you see an Orc banner on the left, confirming that you are going in the right direction.
Follow the path until the very end, then you’ll need to turn left, drop down, and scale up the wall, which leads directly to Xardas’ tower. Inside, a fierce demon will command you to destroy the Fire, Stone, and Ice Golems and bring back their hearts.
Fire Golem Location
Exit from the tower and then go out to the right and continue following the lava path to find the Fire Golem cave.
For you to deal damage to the Fire Golem, you must use a blunt weapon; therefore, before entering into battle with it, equip yourself with a hammer instead of a sword. Additionally, the Fire Golem is weak to water magic; therefore, if you have a good supply of Ice Blots or Ice Blot scrolls, you should be able to do enough damage to defeat him.
Stone Golem Location
From the tower entrance, head to the left to find the Stone Golem.
Unlike the other golems, the Stone Golem is completely immune to magic. You’ll need to rely entirely on a blunt weapon during the fight, and you may have to use several healing potions before defeating it.
Ice Golem Location
From the tower entrance, take the left path again, but stop partway and climb upward toward the tower.
On the way, you’ll encounter several Timber Wolves. During the fight, the Ice Golem can also summon smaller Ice Golems. However, both the boss and its summoned creatures can be defeated using even the simplest fire spell.
Should You Lie to Saturas?
After collecting all three Golem Hearts, use the rune created from them to reach the upper level of the tower. At the end of the quest, you’ll be given the choice to either tell Saturas the truth or lie. Choosing to lie causes the quest to fail, and you won’t receive any experience or additional rewards. Telling the truth is the only option that provides rewards.
