Before approaching a camp guard or taking an item, observe the area and check whether the space or item is restricted. In Gothic Classic, the supplied guide material identifies NPC schedules, camp boundaries, and owned items as potential sources of conflict.
Approach guards cautiously
Watch a guard’s routine from a distance before moving closer. Do not assume a patrol gap or change in activity makes a restricted area safe to enter; the supplied material does not establish a reliable time or route for slipping past guards.
Keep clear of restricted buildings and avoid crowding guards. If you receive a warning, back away rather than pressing farther into the area.
Check items before taking them
Look for signs that an item belongs to an NPC before picking it up. The draft warns that taking owned items in view of others can provoke hostility, so prioritize items left unattended or in abandoned places when ownership is unclear.
If you cannot tell whether an item is safe to take, leave it and continue exploring.

Nice guide. I am checking the other Gothic Classic articles next.
This helped me understand strategy much better.
Can you add more details about strategy in a future update?
The tips are practical and easy to follow.
