Asterigos: Curse of the Stars guide – How to reach Arges Bazaar
Similar to certain Souls-like games and action RPGs, Asterigos: Curse of the Stars doesn’t really have a functional map or objective markers. You’ll need to look around if you want to reach a destination. That’s why getting to Arges Bazaar might be confusing at first.
The objective, along with heading to Stella Mine and Phalan Academy, pop up after beating Baraad in the Black Streets and talking to Minerva in the Shelter. You’ll have to check Minerva’s map on the war table to read the briefing and make the quest active. In any case, before we discuss the correct path, let’s first talk about where not to go.
Black Streets: Granary
The steps in the tower where you fought Baraad lead to the castle’s ramparts. This takes you to a courtyard with a passage that’s barred by obstacles.
Flooded Belt
The vault that you can access after defeating Baraad has a quest item required by Minerva (which also triggers a cutscene for the completion of this main quest). The room happens to have an elevator that takes you to the Flooded Belt. The enemies here can be defeated, but they’re significantly tougher compared to the mobs that you’ll normally fight at this stage in the game. The gate here is also locked.
How to reach Arges Bazaar in Asterigos: Curse of the Stars
Believe it or not, to reach Arges Bazaar in Asterigos: Curse of the Stars, all you need to do check the Shelter. Look beyond the fast travel point there to spot Quintus the Merchant, who’s set up shop here. Next to Quintus is a metal gate, with steps leading further down below.
In the sewers, an oddly-dressed cultist will pop up. Quickly take him out before he transforms into a werewolf.
Then, ride the elevator in this chamber. You’ll end up in Arges Bazaar soon enough.
Asterigos: Curse of the Stars is available via Steam.
