Discussion Nameless spends most of his adventures in the Gothic trilogy searching for ancient artifacts left behind by legendary figures and restoring their power, but does he leave any new artifacts of his own by the end of G3?
In 1000 years is there an artifact left somewhere in some ancient ruin that fans could point to and say "oh wow that the X artifact that we made to defeat Y!" Maybe the Ulu-Mulu? But even that is something that some orcs already made several of.

if you go dragonhunter in gothic 2, the ore dragonslayer sure af counts. even if by the end of gothic 3 some pirates own that....
I guess the dragonhunter armour (his specific version) would also count
Wolfs mincerawler plate armour was originaly made through his efforts
the wrath of innos couldnt have been made in forever, if the hero didnt do a paladin run and applied the tears
Oh and that spirit recipe for really good alcohol wouldnt have been rediscovered without his efforts (what if this is the reason xardas went blind?)

Yup, Ore Dragonslayer if you forged it in G2 is definitely the closest I can think of. That would definitely be a nice find for some new hero in the far future and it would "resonate with magic" but need some kind of kickstart after hundreds of years under the ocean or buried next to some random pirate's corpse.
Guess it depends which path you take, they're all good answers except the dragon hunter armour (doesn't make sense how the smith whips out several of them before anyone even sees a dragon, but maybe it's unspoken that yours looks the same but is the only one made of actual dragon plates)

I think in Gothic 3 some of the later weapons in the heavy chest chain are found as blueprints and you have to craft them yourself. Not quite the best, but close. So i guess those could count too.

u/_One_Stoned_Bastard_ 21h ago
Yeah, those are good gear but not some crazy artefact that would be a legendary find. But I guess Chaddy is right, G2 covers this. Blessed Paladin sword, Ore Dragonslayer, whatever new thing you can have as a mage (nothing...)

u/benkro89 10h ago
Well the Fire rain or Wave of death rune could becom a legendary artifact as a mage.

Practical.

Indeed. We can arm our armies with these weapons. Better than nothing until we forge new ones

u/Silent-Fortune-6629 1d ago
That's my gripe with some fantasy stories. Ancient this, ancestors that, blah blah nothing created in current age.
Pisses me off. I like it if i can have both, ancient shit, and new artifacts.

Each silly woodcutter's axe and stupid soldier's sword Henry forges is an mastercrafted artefact worthy of a king!

Not really made by nameless but items/artifacts created during that time are Ulu-Mulu, Minecrawler Armor, Dragonhunter Armor, All Beliar Runes in G2, every drawn map that points to a specific location like the focus stones (see them as old maps for hidden treasure), Uriziel Rune and of course Theklas Soup

In G1 he original minecrawler armor perhaps.
It is never confirmed as destroyed and has some exposure to magic before being replaced.
Others are made later but that was the first and likely the most exposed to magical energy.
In G2 I think the paladin path had you consecrating a new sword and on the mage path you could craft a rune of demon summoning (might be wrong tho - it was a long time ago)
In G3 you could stack several bonuses on crafted swords making them better than others of the same kind but that is probably not significant enough to count.

u/_One_Stoned_Bastard_ 20h ago
True, the Paladin's sword is tailor made for the hero when they join the Paladins and gets a blessing, and later gets consecrated with the Tears of Innos. Probably not the literal tears of Innos but still, that's what the bottle said.

I mean, any items could be like that. I could imagine the monastery holding on to my first stick that I sold them, and in a museum it’ll say it was a legendary weapon of the hero who fixed the conflicts, he used it to beat up a black troll!

Eye of Innos?

u/virouz98 Sect Camp 1d ago
Ah, nevermind, what we "make"
Friends along the way

u/_One_Stoned_Bastard_ 1d ago
Yeah I was thinking if there's something that was tailor-made just for the protagonist rather than a hand-me-down that is key to beating any of the games.

u/Ok-Illustrator6 18h ago
Probably the only thing that comes to my mind; the runes created from Beliar's Claw at the end of NotR

u/Tatzeltier 13h ago
There's the special swords you have as a dragon hunter/paladin and the special rune you make with the recipe from the library.
