Unitors is the main quest from the third chapter in Gothic 1 remake, issued by the water mage Saturas. To channel the energy of the collected magical ore into the dome, he needs the remaining Focus Stones, which are stored in four remote corners of the Valley of Mines. Each unit is a test of combat skill and ingenuity, but Diego, Lester, Gorn, and Milten, united for a common goal, will help collect them.
How to start the "Unitors" quest in Gothic 1 Remake
The task will begin immediately after you complete the quest. The Waterbenders' Plan and talk to Saturas. After that, head to the "friends' meeting place" at the old lighthouse.
Before accepting the mission You can't touch the units - This can lead to a softlock, and you will have to roll back to an old save or fix bugs using cheats.
What to do if Milten, Diego or Gorn are not there
The bug is that due to a broken script, assistants may not show up at designated locations to search for Unitors. Two of the four stones cannot be obtained independently, even if you give yourself these items through console command, you won't be able to give them to Saturas until you talk to Milten and Diego at the meeting place in the troll gorge and at the stone circle.
You can solve the problem like this:
- Set the "ReShade-Console Item Spawner" from NexusModsUnzip the archive contents into a folder. "..\steamapps\common\Gothic 1 Remake\G1R\Binaries\Win64".
- In the game launch options on Steam, enter -consolekey=F10.
- To localize the mod, please download additionally "ItemsLocalizations_1.4a.zip" from the project page and extract the files from the "RU" folder to the same directory.
- Launch the game, stand in the place where the missing NPC should be, and open the overlay with the "Home" key.
- In the Add-ons tab, open the AI Spawn category and select Milten or Diego.
Click the "Add" button, then "Run" - the desired character will appear in the trigger zone, after which you can start a dialogue with them and launch the quest.
The character appears at the hero's coordinates, and must be placed within the script's trigger zone. Check the screenshots and maps in the guide to avoid mistakes.
Alternatively, you can manually change the quest status in online editor saves and then hand over all the units to Saturus (give the missing ones through the mod):
- Create a new save manually.
- Drag it onto the site.
- In the “Quests” tab, set the desired tasks to “Running” status.
- Click "Generate fixed save" and download the *.sav file.
- Remove ".fixed" from the name and move it with the replacement to the saves folder.
Depending on the unit that fails to turn in to Saturas, change the status of these quests:

- Quest_OldCamp_OCCHAPTER3_TROLLCANYON — from the troll gorge.
