How do you knock out NPC'S?
   

How do you knock out NPC'S without killing them? I just started playing G2 yesterday. Does it work like in G1?

Yes it works like in G1. But some npcs can't be knocked out. they just die (e.g thieves in thieves guild)

So it's like in G1, where you can knock them down and then perform a fatal blow with a bladed weapon? So I should use a blunt weapon if I want to make sure I don't accidently kill them right?

Bow will always kill.

Sword will usualy only kill if you choose to do a fatal blow. But as previously stated, it has changed slightly for G2 in that certain NPCS cannot be knocked out at all. They will just simply die, even if you knock them out with a club.

You can probably feel pretty safe that anyone who dies without a fatal blow isnt that important anyway. But dont count on that (Save often and in different slots if your gonna kill people).

Key facts:

- Bow, Crossbow, and magic always kills...

- Bandits are supposed to die...

Shmaugus' syep by step guide to knocking out an NPC in Gothic II:

1) Draw your weapon.
2) Lock-on to your intended target.
3) Press either the attack or action button.
4) Repeat step 3 until target is laying on ground writhing in pain.
5) Loot unconsious body for any useful items that the NPC may have on him.
6) If NPC was hostile towards you to start with, he/it isn't gonna get back up.
7) If NPC was not and you don't want him waking back up, press action button. (player character will then carry out a fatality move on NPC)
8 ) Run away like a little bitch if you have done this in a town.
9) Repeat until homocidal urges satisfied.
