Training helps, more dexterity than needed for your bow does not. This is much quicker than dramatically killing them with a melee weapon. Since you're killing them, you don't actually need to take their weapons. (unless you need the money) Jackal has a heavy crossbow. | ||

When you head to the Old Camp to deliver | After you have given the remaining Focus Stones to Saturas, and spoken to him about what they need to do next, Saturas will mention needing the original twelve mages (now split into six Mages of Fire and six Mages of Water) to blowthe ore mound, but hesitate to mention more. He'll tell you to go to find some way to contact Corristo, leader of the Mages of Fire, and attempt to appeal the New Camp's proposition and present you with a teleport rune to give to Corristo, as a sign of Saturas's trust. If you go down to Cronos, by this point, you can begin the equally ill-fated subquest where you [[Gothic/Aid_of_the_Magicians_of_Fire|seek the aid of the Magicians of Fire]].

If you approach they'll say you can't come in, and, if you were a member of the Old Camp (regardless of whether you were a Guard or a Magician of Fire) they denounce you as a traitor and chase after you. | |||
It isn't too difficult to outrun them. Go around to the rear gate until you see Diego. He explains the situation: [[Gothic/The_Old_Mine|the Old Mine]] collapsed when water got in. Gomez, desperate to maintain the constant supply of ore to the outside world that is crucial to his easygoing life, decided to launch an attack on the Free Mine and seized it, killing everyone there. When the Magicians of Fire opposed this plan they were executed. | It isn't too difficult to outrun them. Go around to the rear gate until you see Diego.
