Observe camp NPCs before approaching or crossing an area. Use their routines to plan conversations and movement, with the goal of avoiding unnecessary conflict with guards.
Plan around observed routines
- Watch where an NPC goes and when they leave an area.
- Approach when you can speak without getting in a guard’s way.
- Before passing through a guarded area, look for a time when the NPCs you observed are elsewhere.
- If a route still looks risky, wait and observe again rather than assuming the schedule will repeat exactly.
The draft describes NPCs as following daily routines, but it gives no specific times or schedule for any individual. Base your decisions on what you observe in your playthrough; don’t treat a particular time as a guaranteed opening.
Use this approach to make conversations and travel through camps more deliberate. The supplied material does not establish specific NPC schedules or guarantee that timing will prevent every guard encounter.

Nice guide. I am checking the other Gothic Classic articles next.
I wish I had read this before upgrading the wrong thing.
Good guide for Gothic Classic players. The strategy part was useful.
I tried this today and it worked better than my old setup.
