Guide talk:Experience rewards from Rescue the Gnome

The information here is not 100% accurate

You can get the 15xp for stopping the windmill. It requires Fezzerk to surrender during a fight with him. The steps to achieve this are: pacify the goblins via dialogue, then in the brief window before they leave start combat with the goblins, defeat Fezzerk so he surrenders, then after he leaves or you kill him stop the windmill, then you should receive the 15xp as you approach Barcus.

A more optimal route is to kill the Goblin Devouts while in combat with Fezzerk after pacifying him, then after he surrenders you kill him, then rescue the gnome.

Netting a total of 340xp (120xp and 70xp for pacifying them, additional 90xp for defeating Fezzerk and two Devouts via combat, plus 15xp for stopping the windmill, and finally 45xp for completing the quest) Willowman69 (talk) 14:10, 6 October 2026 (CEST)

Thanks for that info! I just tried it in-game, you are right, if he surrenders you indeed get the 15 xp for stopping the windmill. Weird!

I'm gonna fix the guide. TitanstringEnjoyer (talk) 03:53, 10 October 2026 (CEST)

Upon investigating a bit more, there's also a missing Goblin Sharp-eye which should reward 20xp as well. Willowman69 (talk) 14:10, 6 October 2026 (CEST)

Thanks, added to the guide. I got 0 XP for killing it after resolving the encounter peacefully so it's already included in the 120 XP. TitanstringEnjoyer (talk) 04:41, 10 October 2026 (CEST)
