Hey everyone!
The Highlands are a beautiful place, flourishing with flowers, trees, and all kinds of plants, A sight to behold, you might say. Unfortunately, the presence of Countess Bathory and her goons makes them a really dangerous place. Janosik found this out the hard way having gotten captured and thrown into a dungeon when trying to make it to his date.
To help you survive the Highlands, and deal with the Countess' army, kind people around the village will offer to sell a variety of items that will surely boost your combat prowess, or make exploration easier. These items are not required to progress further in the game, but will surely come in handy when you want to become a treasure hunter, or explore all of the Highlands.
Map of the Village - Allows you to check your surroundings, and see where all cool people, including vendors, and certain people of interest, hang out.
Golden Compass - The magical compass unveils the location of treasures scattered around the levels on the map. Once you purchase this, all maps found in the future will have the treasure markers on them.
Harpoon - Janosik and his friends surely are great swimmers, but, unfortunately, they didn't learn how to use their weapons underwater. Instead, they rely on the Harpoon, which makes the underwater combat possible. Another advantage of buying this weapon is the ability to break rocks underwater to reveal hidden passages.
Eel Ring - Janosik once had the Sturgeon Ring in his possession. It allowed him to breathe underwater, Unfortunately, he lost it while he was taking a bath... Thankfully, the Witch at the Village has a similar trinket in her collection. The Magical Eel Ring will also let Janosik and his friends breathe underwater, hopefully they don't lose it this time.
Ring of Dexterity - Janosik would make a great Gymnast, as he has honed the ability to roll around to perfection. Ring of Dexterity is an icing to the cake, as it allows Janosik to dodge enemy projectiles, while rolling.
Potions - The witch is carefully brewing Potions in her hut, and offers them to people in need. These magical concoctions will completely refill your Health. Make sure to always have some tied to your belt, they will come in handy in the midst of battle.
To tackle the dangers of the Highlands, preparation is key.
