The apothecary shop in Paws is hidden beyond a false wall. Check carefully the east wall in the village armoury.
To access the apothecary shop in Buccaneers Den you need to cast one "Dispel" magic, that requires a black pearl as one of the reagents, but black pearls are cheap in that same shop only. Therefore, you will have to buy at least one expensive black pearl somewhere else to get many cheap ones.

=== Healers ===
=== Healers ===
Unfortunately, Lord British didn't introduce free health care (like in the European Union) yet, so you have to pay cash every time you go to a healer. At least, they don't ask to see your health insurance (unlike in the USA and UK).
The healers in Britannia provide access to three spells: curing (100 gold), healing (200 gold), and resurrection (300 gold). The healers are expensive compared to purchasing and mixing regents, resting in inns or camping, but are useful should the other options be unavailable.
 
If one of the party members is poisoned and there is not enough gold, the healers can cure the poison for free, asking you to likewise give onto others.
 
If the Stranger is in quite good health, he can give blood to the healers and practice the virtue of Sacrifice. The cities of Skara Brae and Jhelom feature a healer and a cheap [[#Inns|inn]] where the party can rest, making them suitable locations where to improve Sacrifice quickly.  
 
Castle Britannia is also useful, as Lord British will heal the party for free (or at the cost of cutting down experience points, in some versions), and has a healer on the lower floor.

The closest beggars to the Shrine of Compassion are: Sprite in Britain (Bob the Beggar in the NES remake), Humlock in Empath Abbey (in Paws in the NES remake), Frida and the poor beggar in Yew.
In the NES port, shops and shopkeepers are nameless. Also, there are no horses and the Paws stables are empty.

Shannon's "Magic Mentar" Buccaneers Den 6 7 9 9 9 1
NES remake - 2 5 6 3 6 9

The apothecary shop in Paws is hidden beyond a false wall. Check carefully the east wall in the village armoury.

To access the apothecary shop in Buccaneers Den you need to cast one "Dispel" magic, that requires a black pearl as one of the reagents, but black pearls are cheap in that same shop only. Therefore, you will have to buy at least one expensive black pearl somewhere else to get many cheap ones.

Healers[edit]

The healers in Britannia provide access to three spells: curing (100 gold), healing (200 gold), and resurrection (300 gold). The healers are expensive compared to purchasing and mixing regents, resting in inns or camping, but are useful should the other options be unavailable.

If one of the party members is poisoned and there is not enough gold, the healers can cure the poison for free, asking you to likewise give onto others.

If the Stranger is in quite good health, he can give blood to the healers and practice the virtue of Sacrifice. The cities of Skara Brae and Jhelom feature a healer and a cheap inn where the party can rest, making them suitable locations where to improve Sacrifice quickly.

Castle Britannia is also useful, as Lord British will heal the party for free (or at the cost of cutting down experience points, in some versions), and has a healer on the lower floor.

Beggars[edit]

In order to master the virtue of Compassion, it is necessary to give gold to beggars. Each donation increases the score, regardless of the amount given.

The following table is divided in two: mainland and islands. In the NES remake, a "=" precedes the location if it is the same as the original; sort by "NES remake" to highlight the version differences.

The closest beggars to the Shrine of Compassion are: Sprite in Britain (Bob the Beggar in the NES remake), Humlock in Empath Abbey (in Paws in the NES remake), Frida and the poor beggar in Yew.

Nameless prisoners Castle Britannia (Prisoners instead of beggars)

Poor beggar Yew = Yew
Humlock Empath Abbey Paws?
Bob the Beggar Minoc Britain
Gimble Minoc = Minoc (injured person)
