Larian Studios Forums Divinity 2 - Ego Draconis (English) Help/Tips/Tricks Where did Richard Go?

I come out of a cave and there Richard is getting owned by Goblins.
I kill them all and hes gone again.

PS.Whats with that troll further down?

When and Where is this?

Richard walks between the Chapel and the Blacksmith's house.

I can't recall Richard fighting Goblins anywhere either. He always hangs around the Chapel and the Blacksmith in my game, or he's at the camp nearby the village.

In an early review of Divinity 2, the reviewer said that a certain NPC has to die while fighting goblins so you can take his "powerful" armor. Richard died during that battle, but I think the reviewer just got lucky because the armor he dropped for me was junk. UPDATE: You can save Richard, in which case he'll say he's going back to the village and he has another scheme in mind.


Those four Seekers had attacked the troll as part of their punishment for getting drunk, picking a fight with a Slayer (you), and embarrassing the Seekers. You can learn more about the mission by talking to the Lieutenant at the barracks--y'know, the guy who reprimanded the drunk Seekers.


You have to refuse his Hearttaker quest, and Richard will say he'll kill goblins himself and run off. (Of course, you won't be able to do his quest Hearttaker.) Later on, you'll encounter Richard in a goblin encampment, fighting more goblins than he can handle alone. He'll ask for help. You can either aid him and he'll live, so you can later do his second and third quests, or you can leave him to die, in which case you'll get random loot but no access to his follow-up quests.
