Important NPCs
The Arena of Fort Joy Objectives
- Speak to Thola, the Thorny One.
- Defeat all the contenders in the Arena of Fort Joy.
The Arena of Fort Joy Walkthrough
At the Fort Joy kitchen, Noosey will tell you that the Fort Joy Arena is the place for fighters to prove their worth. It can be accessed by going down the hatch that's right next to her.
In the arena, speaking to the female near the ledge will grant you a free buff for the fight. When you are ready, speak to Thola to start the quest. She will tell you to challenge the other fighters to become the champion of the arena.
Multiplayer: If you are playing with more than player, there will be two phases instead of one. The first phase involves fighting four characters (a wizard, ranger, knight, and a dog). Once they are defeated, you will either be transported back to Thola or prompted to complete the challenge of the One, which will initiate a player-vs-player phase where the players will face off against each other.
The quest will finish regardless of the outcome. If you won, you will be given a reward by Thola.
Tips & Tricks
- The chests can be looted during combat. If you are playing multiplayer, then you must loot them during the first phase. They won't be usable during the second. The chests contains loot you'd find from an ordinary Ornate Chest.
- Any dead party members will be revived if you win. Therefore, only use Resurrection Scrolls when necessary. You will not lose the game if you are defeated, though.
- After completing this quest, you can speak to the merchant Nebora to remove your main character's Source Collar as part of the The Collar quest.
- Upon winning, you earn "Champion of Driftwood" tag, which you can use to impress Dorotya.
AnonymousThis is what ruined the game for me and put a huge dent in a friendship.
Told my friend i do not want to do any PvP in this game. I said no, but the game handled it as yes. Friend who has hours and hours, knowing pretty much everything perfectly prepared herself against my class, while i, the complete "Noob" in this game knew nothing.
Obviously got roflstomped and after checking everything and talking to another friend, she did everything she needed to that i had not the tiniest bit of a chance against her.
In other words. She willingly put the friendship on the line, ruining a game for me just so she has some bullshit awfully designed game title in a save i will never ever look at or touch again.

Found a solution for the multiplayer pvp bug, at least for our case just now.
At the start of the second round we both had 2 characters each, one dead (killed in the first round) and one alive.
As nothing happened after one killed the other, i opened the party management and moved the one that was still dead from the first round, from the losing player to the surviving player. So one player had the last survining character and the two dead ones from the first round. Right after clicking accept all characters were resurrected and teleported back to Thola, and we were able to finish the quest.

Fight with companions and won. Was told to see the smith to get the collar removed. Now I can talk to my companions but they will not follow me. They just stand there. What to do?

So we are playing PVP and got stuck twice in the arena, the way we got around it was if one player said they didn't want to fight and the other said yes to the fight on the second round.

In the 2nd phase where u fight ur mates, the winner can go talk to Nebora in town and get their collar removed. So guess thats the "prize" of winning.

Did this solo, started by climbing to high grown, shot the archer, then force-teleported the fighter into poison far away. Killed the archer and healed. Killed the mage then the fighter. Teleported the dog onto the platform so I could loot the chests then finished it off sence it couldn’t reach me.

If you speak to the NPC next to the gruff one before you fight, and give the right answers, (I was playing as Ifan) she will cast a long lasting (50 turn) magic armour on you. Triggering the match straight after this means the effect can help win the fight.

Save before you try. Just like a FPS Solo story mode game. Failure is not an exception. Failed once being solo, loaded back up with 3 companions slightly geared, no issues.
Getting thrown in jail three times depleting my lockpicks is another story. :)

have tried PVP after killing all NPCs, but then the survivor is stuck in the arena. Did anybody find a fix yet??

I tried everything, couldn't progress with the quest or get to the chests, once I left the island the log says that the quest is closed as I left the island without completely exploring the arena of the one.

I failed in the first attempt and now there's no option to try again...

Do I have to get the chests in the arena during the fight or is there any other way?

For people still wondering why the quest won't complete after Noosey removed your collar, the quest continues in the next arena in act 2.

Was playing co-op with a friend, after the first fight we got an option to fight each other. After our PvP was done and I was the only one alive, we were just stuck in the arena and had to load the previous save to get out.

I tried this quest on Solo player. It didn't have any option to let me advance so I thought I would need to get the collars removed off every one of my characters so I did the quest line up to the point where I'm about to leave the island and I went back, nothing has changed. I've tried every combo I could to move onto the next battle. The quest is still broke. 9/21/17

Seems this quest is bugged or unfinished. Completed the Arena and it tells me to talk to "Thoia, The Thorny One", when I do she asks who do I want to challenge next without giving me a choice. "Sepp the Burnished One" is mentioned by several NPCs to be an important character but seems to have no impact on this quest.
Definitely seems unfinished. I assume you were supposed to be able to challenge each of the NPCs around her.
My friend made a character at the beginnning of the game with me. They no longer play.
1.) Their character, not mine, got assigned the winning title. Their character did not get the killing blow. I was offered no 2nd battle/duel or whatever. or anything. Does anyone know how to "pick" who gets the title in the case that you have two PCs in party?
2.) In general is there any way to get rid of my friend's character from party permanently? They likely won't be playing again =(
