"The Sick Brother" is a quest in Metin2 available in numerous language versions of the game – including German, English, French, Polish and many others. Like most Metin2 quests, completion requires special quest items, which typically can only be obtained as drops when the quest is active. Completion requires preparation, knowledge of the right area, and understanding which items need to be collected.
What is the quest "The Sick Brother"?
"The Sick Brother" is part of the regular quest list in Metin2 and has names in other languages such as Le gardien malade (French), Il Guardiano Malato (Italian), El Guardián Enfermo (Spanish) or Chory Brat (Polish). The different translations indicate that the quest focuses on a guardian figure whose brother has fallen ill. The goal of the quest is to help the quest giver – typically by obtaining certain items or completing tasks in the game world.
Metin2 quests of this type are classic collection quests: you accept the task, farm the required quest items in a specific area, and turn them in to the NPC. It sounds simple – but without preparation, searching for the right items can be time-consuming.
Quest Items: What you need to know
In Metin2, there is a special category of items used exclusively for completing quests: so-called quest items. These items typically can only be obtained as drops when the corresponding quest is active. This means: without an active quest, you won't find the required items no matter how long you farm.
This is an important note for anyone tackling the quest "The Sick Brother". Make sure you've actually accepted the quest before you start looking for the required items. Otherwise, you'll waste valuable playtime.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Availability | Only droppable with active quest |
| Purpose | Exclusively for quest completion |
| Tradeable | Generally not tradeable or transferable |
| Category | Own item category in game inventory |
Step by Step: How to complete the quest
The basic flow of the quest "The Sick Brother" follows the classic Metin2 quest principle. You accept the task from an NPC, collect the required quest items, and turn them back in to the NPC. You'll find the exact steps further down in the how-to section of this page. Here's an overview of the main points:
- Accept quest: Talk to the responsible NPC and add the quest to your active quest list.
- Visit area: Travel to the area relevant for the quest and defeat the monsters found there.
- Farm items: Collect the required quest items. These only drop while the quest is active.
- Turn in quest: Return to the NPC and complete the quest.
Tips for efficient farming
Since quest items in Metin2 have their own drop mechanics, it's worth making a few preparations before farming:
- Check quest list: Open your quest list and verify that "The Sick Brother" is registered as an active quest. Only then will the items drop.
- Join a group: If the farming area contains difficult monsters, it may be worthwhile to play with a group. This significantly speeds up progress.
- Free up inventory space: Make sure you have enough free inventory slots. Quest items take up regular slots – a full inventory stops item collection.
- Pack potions: Especially with higher monster difficulty, you should have plenty of healing potions on hand.
- Consider drop rates: Quest items don't drop with every kill. Plan for enough time and expect that you may need to defeat many monsters.
