Tacarigua Side Quests

Kicking Ass – You get this from Jack on the beach when you first land on the island. Make this your active quest and head to the light house. Talk to the guard Tanner and fight him in a duel and beat him. After you beat him tell him to go down to the beach then go into the light house and grab Holtby’s diary. In the diary he says he hid the loot in a cave near the light house. Look on your map and you can see the cave so head there. Once inside fight your way all the tway to the back and the second chest and get the stolen goods. Return to Holtby and take his money if you want or pick another option then send him away from the light house. Now return to Jack and tell him he can go back to the light house, also give him back his goods.

Wet Behind The Ears – On the beach before you cross the river you can find Pipkin on the beach and he will give you the quest. The chest is in the cave so you might of already got it but if not grab it and return to Pipkin. Give him all his stuff back and you will get half of it as well as two souls.

Vasco’s Stuff – You get this from Vasco who you run into during the main quest. Talk to him and tell him you will retrieve his bag, Mark the quest and fight you way to the marker in the house. Grab the bag and return to Vasco for your reward.

The Commandant Of Tacarigua – Tell the guy at the front about the governor’s body and you can talk to the commandant upstairs. The body is in the house that you found Vasco’s bag in.

Severin/Vasco The Deserter – The commandant wants you to find the deserters and deal with them. You can kill them and loot them or let them live and get extra souls and gold from them. Either way after you deal with them return to Sebastiano for extra rewards.

Menacing Shadows - You get this quest from Severin when you offer to lend him a extra sword hand. All you have to do is follow him and kill the shadow minions that comes along. After you kill them all talk to him again and he will give you some gold.

Di Fuego’s Corpse – Inspect the body of Fuego in the house for the Vasco’s stuff quest to start this one. Talk to the guy outside of the commandant’s house about Fuego and he will suggest you ask around town. Talk to Rodriguez and he will tell you to talk to the Nightwatch guards. Talk to both of the Nightwatch guards and you will learn that the commandant was with Fuego, There is a unlocked chest near Rodriguez that has the commandant’s sword in it and a sword piece is found on the body of Fuego.

Talk to Sebastiano and tell him what you have found and that you think it was him that killed Fuego. After that leave the island and come back and he will be gone looking for you on his ship.

Betray Horas – After you get this quest head to the south west of the town to find a guy near a fire. Talk to him and you can either kill him or have him join you. Either way after you do something about him return to the commandant.

Rodriguez’s Spot of Bother – Talk to Rodriguez and he will ask for a redeployment order from Sebastiano. After Sebastiano leaves the island you can just grab the redeployment order from his desk without getting in trouble. If you try to open the chest they still get mad.

Off And Away - To the north of the town you can find the cook Osorio and he will give you this quest. Go to the marker on the beach and climb up next to the jade and use the vines at the end of the path. Keep climbing the vines and mountain until you reach the top. Talk to Hawke and just answer his questions how you want because there is no right answer. Once you get the option to talk about Osorio do that and you get a new quest marker. Climb up the mountain to the right of him and at the top you can find his chest and other loot. After that you can convince Hawke to jump off a cliff if you want or tell him not to and get extra souls. Return to Osorio for your reward.

The Treasure In The Tacariguan Backcountry – You get this treasure map in the house you find the dead Fuego body. The X is north of the city right past the cook and natives. Head behind some trees and you will see the X on the ground.

I will check the island later for more quests so check back for updates!
