View Full Version : Location of Alethiometer Symbols

12-09-2007, 07:25 AM
Following is a list of Alethiometer symbols in The Golden Compass. You'll notice all 108 are not listed--that's because you begin the game with a few and some are unlocked as part of the normal progression of the game, though you aren't notified in-game when you receive them. An example of this is the serpent symbol you gain while doing a tutorial with Farder Coram. This list is of all the symbols you won't unlock naturally as you play the game.
Make sure you're getting successes when you fool the major characters in the game (like Ragnar and Miss Coulter) to ensure you get all the symbols. If you miss a question and don't end up with full success make note of it, and if you're missing a symbol at the end you can go back and replay the deception event. If you know which symbol comes from which deception event I'll add it into the guide. Thanks.
Big thanks to hamman41, babyfarmer, and especially Quito Santana and hoochli for the help in making this guide!
Jordan College
- Chameleon: Patience - this appears after you spit plums with Roger on the roof
- Candle: Learning - I got this one on my second playthrough after spitting plums. The only thing I did differently that I know of is I didn't miss with the plums.
- Alpha and Omega: Process - After the game with the Tanners you’ll be able to swing up 3 poles (using the sloth ability) to a ledge right above where you enter the college
-Serpent: Evil - After tricking the first servant there will be a man in black right behind you. Trick him to gain this symbol
-Cornucopia: Autumn - after talking to the master you can trick the first servant again (the one where you got the tutorial on deceiving) and get this symbol.
London
- Madonna: Motherhood - jump on the bed in your room right as the stage begins
- Apple: Vanity - use the Ermine insight ability to look at the apple on the dresser (with the mirror in front of it)
- Tree: Firmness - As you leave your room look out the window next to it at the tree using the insight ability
- Baby: The Future - you’ll gain this after fighting the monkey (I think you can’t miss with the vases in order for it to appear)
- Dolphin: Water - After fighting the monkey you can go downstairs and find the tub stopper right at the bottom. Take it back to your room, fill the tub with water, and use insight on the dolphin once its full
- Walled Garden: Innocence - you’ll get this after hiding (in the fireplace) from the maid
- Marionette: Obedience - after hiding from the maid use insight on the marionette (puppet) next to the fireplace
-Owl: Night - after the maid opens the doors and you go outside to the balcony, look for a green spot on the balcony and use Y to interact. Then use insight on the owl statue
Noorderlicht Day
-Bird : The Soul - Right when you begin use insight on the seagull next to the man that first talks to you
-Hourglass: Death - You’ll get this while talking to Farder Coram (part of the storyline)
-Apple: Sin - Coram will direct you to use insight on the apple next to him
-Bread: Nourishment - use insight on the bread in the room Coram is in
-Cauldron : Craft - Use insight on the big cauldron right behind father Coram.
-Crocodile: America - on the large map in the map room (the room above Coram)
-Elephant: Africa - on the large map in the map room (the room above Coram)
-Horse: Europe - on the large map in the map room (the room above Coram)
-Globe: Politics - use insight on the globe in the middle of the map room
-Bird: Spring - you’ll find this on the ship above the engine room
-Dolphin : Succor - When you get to second deck after climbing over the engine room, use the telescope to your right to look out to the water. Use insight on the dolphins jumping out of the water to get the symbol.
-Sun : Day - Same place as the previous. Look to the top right portion with the telescope and use insight on the sun.
-Anchor : Steadfastness - When you climb down the ladders to mop, one side has a netting you can use climb on, use insight on the anchor that is just next to the netting.
-Ant: Mechanics - When the smoke stacks are turned off and you are climbing on the sail, go all the way to the top and grab the symbol.
-Chameleon: Air - Deceive Bram and you’ll get this
-Wild Man: The Masculine - you'll find this just outside your cabin at the end of the level if you've completed all the sailors' tasks during the level. This is what you have to do:
*mop up ALL the bird droppings on all decks. When you get them all it will say "objective complete"
*learn how to dodge from the guy on the front deck. You have to talk to him twice and go through 2 rounds with him, and Pan has to do it once with his Daemon
*save the daemon that's stuck in the sail. To do this you'll have to deceive the guy guarding the engine room
*deceive the guy on the rear deck a total of 3 times
If you're unsure just check your journal--it will tell you if you have a task you haven't fully completed yet.
The Inspectors
- Baby: Malleability - you’ll find this on the rear deck when the inspectors come
-Moon: The Uncanny - After throwing a snowball at the inspectors torch and climbing the smoke stack, use insight on the moon.

-Ant : Diligence - Don't get spotted on the deck at all and it will be waiting in the room with the inspector right when you walk in. Don't get caught by the last guard or you will respawn before it and it won't be there, if he catches you reuse insight on the candle and chameleon.
-Candle: Fire - Use insight on the candle that is on the table right in front of you
-Chameleon: Greed - When you get into the room with the inspector there is a chameleon sitting on the back of a chair, use insight on it. You can actually see it when the video plays of the inspector looking through things.
Trollesund

-Cornucopia: Hospitality - There is a symbol of a cornucopia on the building in front of the merchant who gives you the Crocodile:Enterprise symbol. Use insight on it.
- Madonna: Worship - this is behind a wagon directly behind the Thunderbolt symbol, in a sort of alley to the right of the Magesterium

- Ant : Tedium - Don't hide from any of the spy flies. They'll attack you--don't dodge but hit all button prompts properly. This will capture them, and once you capture all the splyflies (there are three) the symbol will appear. The first fly comes right at the start when you walk towards the town. The second one appears when you reenter the town after you had the chat in the Witch Counsil. And the final one appears after talking to Iorek.

- Angel: Hierarchy - This symbol will be on your right when you swing up to get the Bird: Marriage symbol
- Walled Garden: Order - you can see this symbol up high when Pan says he’ll make the crate drop. Climb up the crate, but instead of using pan look along the side of the building. You will need to first jump and glide (using hawk form), then quickly switch to the sloth and whip for the rail. From here jump up to a ledge where the symbol can be grabbed.

- Baby: Helplessness - After Iorik makes a bridge you’ll enter a cave and open a gate. Explore that cave and you’ll find this symbol
- Moon: Mystery - in the cave next to the crashed Zeppelin there's some water with a reflection of the moon in it. Use insight to get this symbol
- Bee: Sweetness - in the same cave as the moon symbol. It's right above you to your right as you're coming into the cave, but you have to swing up to it from the other side of the chasm to get it.
- Elephant - in the cave after (not next to) the crashed Zeppelin. You’ll have to throw rocks to make a bridge to get to it

- Moon: Chastity - Right before you enter the 2nd vent on Bolvangar (that's the one with the fan above you), you can jump using the hawk ability to the symbol. You can't really see it because of the awful camera angle, but it's basically to the right of the vent and across the gap.
- Angel: Disobedience - after you hide from the monkey there is a piece of wall to the left of the blue tanks. Use insight to get it.

Svalbard Courtyard
- Alpha and Omega: Finality - Find the prisoner’s lost locket by digging in the dirt in your cell
- Madonna: The Feminine - When the bear leads you toward Ragnar, look to your left. You'll see a dark area you can run into, and you'll find this symbol there. Do it quickly because a timer starts once you get out of range of the bear's light.
- Hourglass: Change - After getting the Madonna symbol move to the right of the bear. Further up you'll see a line of courage orbs going out (to the right) into the darkness. Follow them for this symbol.
- Serpent: Sensibility - After getting the Hourglass symbol stay on the right of the bear. Just up from it (almost at the end of the hall) you'll see this symbol just off the path behind a bear. You don't need to go into the dark for it--just dodge the bear.

- Griffon: treasure - Defeat King Ragnar in the deception game without losing a single round.
Zeppelin Assault
- Sword: Justice - The first bear Iorik helps will ask him to help his brother, who is through the gate in front of him. Open the gate and save the bear to get this symbol

When you first start in London, there's an apple on the table. Inspect it ASAP because the camera angle will change and it will be hard to do.
I sadly do not remember which one it gives, I just know it's an apple one.
I'll try and check and edit my post.

Yes, check my list -- Apple: Vanity is there.
Also, you can replay a level to get missing symbols later, but as far as I can tell you have to replay the whole thing, because I tried quitting after a checkpoint on a level and lost what I had.

I was replay the first level, because I left behind one secret object of your list, and at the same time that I catch the object, i did back to main menu, accepting the notice "you will lost every progress"
After, I load my savegame (3th level), I check the diary, and.... I have this object in my list.
Sorry for my english, it's so bad, i know xD
PD: botafogo thank you very much, for your guide is awesome, and so useful. I'm using it ^^

Thanks for these. I added all the ones you had except for Trollesund--I'll go through the level again and try to get the specifics of which symbols they are and where they can be found exactly.
Also, if you find anymore please post them in another post rather than editing your previous one so I don't accidentally overlook any you might add. Thanks!

Yes--thanks Krazie.
Also Quito, check www.goldencompassmovie.com (http://www.goldencompassmovie.com) to find the names of the symbols you're missing. It won't tell you where they are but at least if you know the names maybe it will be easier to find where in the game they're located.
Edit: I updated the list to include all Quito's new suggestions for the Trollesund and The Showdown levels. Thanks for all your help Quito!

I made a very simple Excel sheet where you can filter the attributes and it tells you which symbol you have to choose.
So you don't have to check the website all the time.
(I hope I made no mistakes ;))

After you shoot something at the red haired boy you can play a game with the blond boy between the tables.
If you succeed you will get Compass: Science
Edit: That's in the Bolvangar level
Edit2: I found a second one in the Bolvangar level.. before you crawl through the very first vent you have to swing up to the left, there you will get Owl: Fear
Edit3: W00t.. Still in Bolvangar.. after you hide from the monkey there is a piece of wall to the left of the blue tanks. You have to use insight and you will get Angel: Disobedience
Edit4: After talking to the boy (what's his name?) you enter some kind of dining room. Scan the bread on the table and you will get Bread: Sacrifice

Okay, I think I got them all. I also got yours, Hoochli (thanks), and added a couple for Bolvangar and the Rescue that I found. I'm going to play through some of these levels again tonight, add what I don't have, and see if I can find anything else.
How is everyone doing on the questions? I'm missing some of them and thought it might be a good idea to have a thread listing what all the questions are and where they unlock (I know you have to do certain things to unlock some of them, such as try to open Mrs. Coulter's office in London), but I don't know if the questions are difficult enough to warrant a thread. Thanks.

I got the 48 Questions achievement, can't say that I know how I got all of the questions unlocked though. Just talk to everyone and interact with everything. I'm still at 103/108 symbols as well. The question were kind of weird to get them all answered, its kind of glitchy. Theres a few that you answer when you talk to Coram on the ship and a few that you have to answer for the story line that mess it up a bit. I had to reanswer a few of them to make it work.

Quito, do you think you could make a thread listing all the questions and which chapter they're in? Even if we didn't know exactly where they're located I think that would help (for example if you knew there was a question about the monkey you might know you could unlock it during one of the fights with the monkey), and I could put a link to it in my achievement guide and, of course, give you credit. I think that's really the only thing the guide needs before I submit it.

The list was taken from the spreadsheet posted on the first page. Hence why these some errors.
Also I notice that you start getting bonus symbols later on in the game.
I've noticed I know have the following which I haven't ticked off so these may be bonus symbols; Assuming it's symbols rather then extras for the mini games.
Wild Man - Wild Man
Sun - Authority
Horse - Fidelity

I only have one bee left and one wild man left then I am done with this collection achievement. I have to say though its been challenging, a good change of pace from the typical collect all (insert object here) achievements.

Think my theory is possibly true. Just gotten Marionette - Messenger and Angel - Messenger without finding them via insight or token.

The secret symbol? Yeah. When you beat a level there is three little circles each with a different special thing to them, to what ever each one of them is to get certain things, some of which are symbols.
Quito Santana
12-11-2007, 02:57 AM
Yeah that's the level with the witches. I remember being in that cave but didn't do the above.
I found it. Its the cave right next to the crashed skeleton of the zeppelin, use insight on the glowing circle thats out in the water a little bit.

Okay, after going through the game and these lists again late last night this is what I'm missing:
Bee: Sweetness
Cornucopia: autumn
Moon: Chastity
Sun: Truth
Serpent: Sensibility
If we can get those 5 into the guide I believe it will be finished. I'll have all 108 symbols then and I've documented every one I've gotten, and while we won't have all 108 listed in the guide I think there are some that you acquire as part of the story but the game doesn't notify you of them. For example you start at Jordan College with 3 symbols, and if you defeat King Ragnar with enough health the game tells you you've got the bonus symbol but doesn't tell you what it is. I think if we get these 5 we'll have everything someone needs to knock out the full 1000 in one playthrough.
Quito Santana
12-11-2007, 03:39 PM
Okay, I've replayed the level trying to complete every task and cannot figure out what I'm missing. Can you write up a quick little guide to getting because it's a real pain.
The other symbol for cornucopia is autumn I can't remember where I got it though.

Thinking this through I have a feeling you get certain symbols at the point where you need that to answer the question.
So for example;
Sun - Truth will be gained during "The North" part of the game.
Moon - Chastity will be gained during "Bolvangar".
Bee - Sweetness - during Northern Lights.

Okay--I found Bee: Sweetness as well as a couple others but I'll update the guide in the morning because I'm too tired right now :). The Bee is on the North level in the cave where you get the moon symbol, though. It's basically right above you and to the right as you walk in, but you have to jump across the pit and swing up from the other side.
Someone messaged me saying Sun: Truth was also in the North and that you unlocked it by overhearing two witches talking. Does anyone remember where this happens, what you have to do, etc? I assume its in a cave since Lyra would be dismounted. I thought it was the last cave where the two birds are but couldn't find it there either. Any help would be MUCH appreciated.
The last Serpent one (I think it's Guile) is also driving me nuts.
We've almost got this thing taken care of and then the game will be a breeze for people going through it.

I don't know if the symbol is right but the overhearing is correct.. it is in one of the caves.
I don't remember which one exactly but I think it's one with a little passage way and an intersection (go both ways!) and not one of the big caves..

Got it--thanks! I'm going to add it to the guide now. Oh, and when I got that symbol the achievement unlocked, so I guess I picked the moon one up last night and apparently didn't make a note of it (I was REALLY tired by the end there). I only played Jordan College, the North, and Bolvangar last night, and I'm pretty sure it's not in the North cause I've played that 100 times and never seen it again, so I'm thinking its in Bolvangar since the Jordan College level is during the day. Going to check my lists again and let you know.

Right before you enter the 2nd vent on Bolvangar (that's the one with the fan above you), you can jump using the hawk ability to the symbol. You can't really see it because of the crappy camera angle, but it's basically to the right of the vent and across the gap there. Hope that helps, and welcome to 1000!

- Ant : Tedium - Don't hide from any of the spy flies. They'll attack you--don't dodge but hit all button prompts properly. This will capture them, and once you capture all the splyflies (there are three or four) the symbol will appear.
There are four of them.. I replayed the level yesterday and was only attacked by three flies and I did not get the symbol when I finished the level.
I'm not sure if they come after some time or if anything triggers them to come..

When you first start the level you have to go to the door of your cell, and a bear will bring the prisoner who's missing his locket. After talking to him you should be able to dig.
There are four of them.. I replayed the level yesterday and was only attacked by three flies and I did not get the symbol when I finished the level.

They come when you get to certain parts of the level. To get the symbol make sure you capture them, meaning you don't even try to dodge them and instead use the buttons when they attack you and you're holding on to them. Lyra will put them in her pocket, and if you do this with all 3 you should get it.

Quick question about these symbols. If you miss one at the start would you have to dedicate another play through to get all. Or can you just go back and get it?

Quick question about these symbols. If you miss one at the start would you have to dedicate another play through to get all. Or can you just go back and get it?
You can go through and play just part of a chapter over again, depending on the chapter. When you go back to the level select you'll see some levels have several places you can start the level--for example the North has like 5. Basically you have to play through to the next part of the level, and they don't necessarily correspond to checkpoints. An example--you can start the North at the witch part and play until Iorek pushes down the bridge, or you can play until you encounter Queen Vala. Then you can quit the level and your item should still be there. Some levels, like London, require you play the whole thing.
And Zeus, you might have to use hawk form and then switch to Sloth in midair to make it to the symbol. I don't remember for sure.

Trollesund
- Ant : Tedium - Don't hide from any of the spy flies. They'll attack you--don't dodge but hit all button prompts properly. This will capture them, and once you capture all the splyflies (there are three) the symbol will appear.
Maybe you should list the moments they appear so the people don't search around and wait for them.. the first one comes right at the start when you walk towards the town. The second one appears when you reenter the town after you had the chat in the Witch Counsil. And the final one appears after talking to Iorek.
The Showdown
- Angel: Hierarchy - when you start the level this will be above you. Use the sloth to get to it
Actually this one is a bit confusing because..
- Bird : Marriage - After using ermine balance to cross the first beam turn around and use sloth to whip up to the top. Once there use insight on the birds to your left. Don't get close or you'll scare them off.
.. it goes directly with this one.
After you cross the beam and stand on the train wagon you turn around and use sloth to jump on the box. Use sloth again to jump to the top. There you can use insight on the birds to your left and take the angel symbol to the right.

Did you get through all the deception events without missing any questions? I know you get symbols for doing that (with the main characters), but I'm not sure which they are. I know, though, that you have to trick Mrs. Couler, Ragnar, and the guy in your prison cell without missing a single question in order to get all the symbols.
Maybe you should list the moments they appear so the people don't search around and wait for them..
I'll add your suggestion to this one and the others too. Thanks.

Here's an idea Botafogo and you can take it and chuck it away if you want. But I think if you take this awesome guide, and build the rest of the achievement guide into this, it would be a complete game guide. By this I mean all the non-automatic achievements, you could note when you have to accomplish something. Like pick up X sybol and then decieve this person, etc etc. I don't know how to say it exactly, but if you could incorporate the achievement guide into this, it would be a bloody awesome guide, probably the best one out on the internet for obtaining 1000 gamerpoints in one straight shot.
EDIT: I know it wouldn't work as far as submitting the achievement guide because the structure would be all wrong, but on the forums here, people could just print it out and go bang bang bang down the list doing everything they need to in order to unlock all the achievements. Oh and if you still don't understand what I mean above, go check out the Cabela's Big Game Hunter forum. There's a post in there for "All objectives" or something and if you follow that, you will pretty much unlock all 1000 points without missing anything as long as you defeat the bosses correctly and make those long shots and such.

Sounds like what you're suggesting is a complete walkthrough of the game. I see where you're coming from and can see how it would be beneficial to someone just wanting to knock out the full 1000 in one playthrough of the game. When I originally started putting this guide together I was under the impression it wouldn't need an actual walkthrough (since most things are pretty straightforward except the symbols), but it seems like many people are getting hung up on certain parts with the deception events, etc.
I tried to keep this guide in chronological order in terms of which symbol you'd get first in a level, which next, etc. so people could go through the list in order and hopefully not miss anything. I'll definitely toy with the idea of doing a more comprehensive guide of the whole game though (although I shudder at the thought of playing the game through AGAIN--lol) as I'm fairly sure one still doesn't exist for this game anywhere on the net (yet). Until then I hope what we have put together so far is enough to get people through the game. I've seen some 1000s up on MGC by members of this site so I'm hoping that's the case.
Thanks for the suggestion!

Read the guide again. After playing the game with the Tanners you have to enter the college through a door. The symbol is above that door--you just swing up to it before you enter the college.

Thanks for all the hard work you did with the list, albeit it was very fragmented and somewhat confusing. With a little time it became easier. Perhaps next time you can list in order everything that opens whether it is collectible or unlockable, like the candle of faith is obtained by finishing first part of Trollesund, but I couldnt find mention of it. The marrionette that every can't find comes from finishing Bolvangar. ANd dont forget to save correctly because I had to replay a few missions just to get items I knew I already got but turned off before they could save properly, which also added to the frustration. Stayed up way too late just for three symbols and two questions. And no you cant answer the question that asks how do you use the Alethiometer. There are 49 questions because that particular Alethiometer question always remains unanswered. So its not a glitch but a nusiance. You have any questions feel free to ask as I've lived the nightmare of piecing this all together and getting through it . . . finally!:drunk
ANd by the way Im not new here, Im just used to more fluid content that is less fragmented esp when it comes to lists that exceed 100 items. My basic level of civility is based upon the information that is given to me and how it's put together. This is my third name change and have been on the site for over a year through three accounts. So I am quite used to these forums and was put back a little with the very fragmented list of symbols although the questions list was spot on, except for a couple places where you just put questions marks where actual symbols had appeared. So thank you for you emotional response to a very valid inquiry of how exactly you attained a certain a symbol when you made NO reference to a cutscene. Usually, cutscenes are very important in guides. Lets people know if they've gone too far or not far enough. Just a friendly fyi Botafogo007.

After you shoot something at the red haired boy you can play a game with the blond boy between the tables.
If you succeed you will get Compass: Science
Edit: That's in the Bolvangar level
Edit2: I found a second one in the Bolvangar level.. before you crawl through the very first vent you have to swing up to the left, there you will get Owl: Fear
Edit3: W00t.. Still in Bolvangar.. after you hide from the monkey there is a piece of wall to the left of the blue tanks. You have to use insight and you will get Angel: Disobedience
Edit4: After talking to the boy (what's his name?) you enter some kind of dining room. Scan the bread on the table and you will get Bread: Sacrifice
i cant seem to get this to work bro

like the candle of faith is obtained by finishing first part of Trollesund, but I couldnt find mention of it. The marrionette that every can't find comes from finishing Bolvangar.
I'll add the candle--I appreciate you actually contributing rather than just complaining about the guide. The Marionette probably comes from one of the deception events, and if anyone can clarify that I'll add it too.
Anyway, when we put this guide together there were only a couple legitimate 1000s in the world and no guides available on the net. Short of lifting info from Prima this was our alternative, and it wasn't until later I found out you get symbols from completing levels and doing deception events perfectly since there's no in game notification that you get a symbol.
If you or anyone else knows which symbols you get from which deception events let me know and I'll add them, but I'm not going to replay through the entire game and then go through the entire list of symbols every time I do a deception event just so I can list the symbols that will come as part of the storyline if you're successful with the deception events. The guide is meant to help with the ones you have to go out of your way to get, and judging by several PM's I've gotten saying people were able to get the full 1k, I'd say it's complete providing you follow the instructions at the beginning of the guide and get a success rating on all the deception events.
Anyway, no hard feelings--it just rubs me the wrong way when someone takes an attempt to help the community and complains about it without offering a suggestion to make it better. If you have any specific suggestions to make any part of the guide better I'm open to them, just PM me.

I finally got Marionette Submission! I was awarded it after beating the Bolvangar level. I don't know what I did to unlock it or how I did things differently. Just keep replaying Bolvangar until you get it. I am finally done with this game. WWhhhhhhhhhoooooooooooo!!!
I had a problem with this too. I think you have to Perfectly defeat Mrs. Coulter to get it. Its one of those secret tasks. I just got is minutes ago by doing exactly that.

Im missing one of the breads. I have nourishment and sacrafice, does anyone know what and where the last one is?
Thanks
EDIT:
OK, I think I figured it out as I just got the achievement. First of all, it was 'Bread: Sheppard'. Go to Svalbard, at the end you fight King Ragnar, beat him without taking any damage. Im pretty sure thats how I got it, I played that level a few times and this was the only thing I did that was different from the previous attempts.
You should add this to your guide as I believe its missing. Great job on the guide, it helped me out a lot.

Ok I just need some help with a few more since I went through a few times with the guide and they're not popping up.
Cornucopia: Autumn is supposed to pop after talking to the master you can trick the first servant again (the one where you got the tutorial on deceiving) and get this symbol.
When exactly is that? I tried talking to everyone after letting the butler's rival take the wine and before entering the room with the projector but I get nothing. Am I asking the wrong people?
And Candle: Faith comes when you Finish the first part of the level. Where is that? I went through the level a few times and it never comes up.

I seem to be having difficulty with this one:
-Compass : Measurement - In the map room, use insight on the charts in front of the big world map on the wall.
I use the insight on the charts in front of the big map and get nothing. Left the room came back. Still nothing. I am right in assuming its the rolled up maps on the table right below the large map on the wall?
Edit: Found it. You get it in The Inspectors, not Noorderlicht day.

I am not looking forward to playing this just because the amount of collectibles...how much of a pain is it?
Wreckon Dracgon
01-04-2008, 04:05 PM
Figured I'd answer your question here my friend as it might help others as well. The game is a pain in the ass plain and simple.
A couple of things to make it go easier...
Use the question guide and answer all questions in your book the moment they become available. For two very good reasons, one you don't want to end the game and have to spend two hours answering damn questions and two you will get Compass Insight to use in deceive mini-games which makes those mini-games so much easier. I didn't follow this tip and after ending the game answered the questions and well a lot of good the 30 compass insight items did me after the game is over.
So read the guide carefully before each level. If you have to deceive someone without losing be sure to have plenty of compass insight items in hand. You don't want to have to play through an entire level again to get to that part of the game again.
And the guide doesn't say it but the questions for the last few levels are all automatic unless it states otherwise so don't worry about missing any.
I'm not sure if it's been mentioned in the thread or else where but other things in the guide that weren't on point are...
You must kill the guy with the electrocution table to get the question it won't happen any other way.
When you are on the ship you must have success rating on every round of the three deceive games from the guy on the ship teaching you to be a Gyptian, this question is needed for the achievement and this is the only way it unlocks.
You don't have to trick the Bear King each time to get the two symbols. I failed twice and after that meeting still had both in my book.
Also after playing a level at the end when it recaps your stats the last block at the top always tells you what you need to do to get a symbol. Whether it's hit three scholars while spitting plum seeds, or kill 20 people before reaching a certain point. Those must be done in order to get the symbol. I didn't check each of them but most all I got just playing normally throughout the game accept for the two I mentioned just now.
Other than that just follow the guide and you'll be fine. It's boring as hell, it's slow as hell, after your first 6-7 hours you'll only have about 100 points at best... but the last 7-8 hours will bring home the bacon :drunk

I've noticed that this list only shows 106 symbols instead of 108. Someone mentioned one of the missing symbols in an earlier post (the "Bread: Shepherd" one), but there's also a missing symbol for "Globe". Is that automatically given at the end of the game or something?

01-08-2008, 07:21 PM
Some of them are just given to you. I followed the guide and got them all.

Figured it out! Good thing I was writing something down last night...lol.
Right before you enter the 2nd vent on Bolvangar (that's the one with the fan above you), you can jump using the hawk ability to the symbol. You can't really see it because of the crappy camera angle, but it's basically to the right of the vent and across the gap there. Hope that helps, and welcome to 1000!
Also I think this guide is complete now, so thanks for everyone's help! I'll be submitting it soon. i cant find this last one which vent do you mean no fans are above ? there are 2 sections once inside the long first one then the one you jump across no gaps near vents... can you be more detailed please its my last symbol?
is it in the area where the owl one is? thats vent opening 2 or do you mean where you crawl?
and in the first vent part or after with electric fence one
Redrum4
02-15-2008, 04:30 AM
Well since no one had an answer I finally spent awhile searching and found this last missing one I needed. The Moon: Chastity Is NOT in the first vent at all its not near the second vent duct either as describd wherethe OWL is. The location of this one is very simple and needs to be corrected and updated as its very confusing.
This is what you need to Do:
Go through the first 2 vent shafts and into the white maze which you overhear the 2 guys talking about the alarms and finish this by opening the last hatch (where end of shaft is and red marker to open) once the cutscene that shows Ms. Coulter arriving is over complete the quick hit the kid with a plum bit and go into shaft 2. Once you are in shaft two shut off the fence and climb up and proceed to the END of the level where you soar accross to the platform with the LAST SHAFT and a SHADOW ofthe FAN overhead and DONT GO IN THE SHAFT but walk in a line from it to the edge of the ledge and use the hawk form and soar straight accross the symbol is right there its very simple so its in the first level of the 2 parts but the second set at the end... hope that helps

having a really hard time, getting the thunderbolt symbol in trollesund, I know you gotta climb the box, and then swing across the beams, but I can't seem to make it, is there some kind of trick to it?
obviously you figured it out going by your next post. It would have been nice if you had told us how to do it.
anyway if anyone else is having problems getting this climb up the first box then use the sloth to grab the first ledge, swing, jump then change to the hawk in mid air glide over to the next beam and quickly change back to sloth and grab onto the ledge. jump over to the box with the symbol on it

On the level 'The inspectors' you can get anchor steadfastness at the same place as on noorderlicht day, after you use the moving crate to get past the inspector where yo ucan climb up the netting use insight to the right of it as thats where the anchor is.

nahhh dude don't push the birdge down! keep heading around the long way and go into the first cave, its on the left. You don't need to push it down at all.
You can push the bridge down, if you push the bridge down walk up it then go left, its the same route in reverese, basically go in to the cave(s) down there, then after going through the route you end up below the bridge again and can walk up it turn right to continue with the level.
edit: But yeah you are right you dont need to push the bridge down at all.

The Showdown
- Bird : Marriage - After using ermine balance to cross the first beam turn around and use sloth to whip up to the top. Once there use insight on the birds to your left. Don't get close or you'll scare them off.
- Angel: Hierarchy - This symbol will be on your right when you swing up to get the Bird: Marriage symbol
- Walled Garden: Order - you can see this symbol up high when Pan says he’ll make the crate drop. Climb up the crate, but instead of using pan look along the side of the building. You will need to first jump and glide (using hawk form), then quickly switch to the sloth and whip for the rail. From here jump up to a ledge where the symbol can be grabbed.
- Dolphin: Resurrection - when you enter the magesterium’s basement you’ll see a kids bunkroom. Use insight on the dolphin in this room
- Marionette: Grace - also in the bunkroom
-ThunderBolt: Inspiration - On the wall right behide Iyorek's helmut there is a Thunderbolt symbol, use insight to get the meaning
-Helmet: War - When you get to the room with Iyorek's helmut in it, use insight on the helmet before picking it up.
-Lute: Rhetoric - Don't fall in the water during the stage. Once you get over the boxes that are breaking and sinking there is one box off the side of the dock with the symbol on it.
The North
- Griffin: Watchfulness - Look through the telescope in camp and use insight on the sky.
- Cauldron: Wisdom - Speak to Mr Scoresby. Retrieve his knife. Then go and see lord Faa. Return to Scoresby and speak to him.
- Tree: Fidelity - Use insight on the large tree in the second cave (the ones Iorik can’t enter) when you’re fighting the witches
- Sun: Truth - When you reach the area where Iorik can push the bridge over defeat the 3 witches there but DON'T push the bridge down. Instead continue on the path and enter the first cave on the left. You'll overhear a conversation between 2 witches and gain the symbol.
- Baby: Helplessness - After Iorik makes a bridge you’ll enter a cave and open a gate. Explore that cave and you’ll find this symbol
- Moon: Mystery - in the cave next to the crashed Zeppelin there's some water with a reflection of the moon in it. Use insight to get this symbol
- Bee: Sweetness - in the same cave as the moon symbol. It's right above you to your right as you're coming into the cave, but you have to swing up to it from the other side of the chasm to get it.
- Elephant - in the cave after (not next to) the crashed Zeppelin. You’ll have to throw rocks to make a bridge to get to it
Camp Ambush
- Bull: Power - This will appear after the first flaming arrow attack
- Helmet: Narrow Vision - you’ll find this after the first sequence of hut fires, after you knock down the platform
Bolvangar
- Camel: Summer - Use insight on the camel drawing on the beach mural at the beginning of the level
-Compass: Science - Trick the blond kid in the middle of the room (between the two tables) after hitting Larry with the food
- Owl: Fear - After you enter the ceiling area, right before you crawl through the very first vent you'll see this symbol, which you can get by swinging up to the left
- Moon: Chastity - Right before you enter the 2nd vent on Bolvangar (that's the one with the fan above you), you can jump using the hawk ability to the symbol. You can't really see it because of the awful camera angle, but it's basically to the right of the vent and across the gap.
- Angel: Disobedience - after you hide from the monkey there is a piece of wall to the left of the blue tanks. Use insight to get it.
-Bread: Sacrifice - When you go into the room to find when the Gyptians are coming (Roger is standing guard) you'll find this. Use insight to get it.
The Rescue
- Camel: Perserverance - By the last guard tower on the left side
- Globe: Sovereignty - This will appear between the flamethrowers as Iorik is fighting them
Svalbard Courtyard
- Alpha and Omega: Finality - Find the prisoner’s lost locket by digging in the dirt in your cell
- Madonna: The Feminine - When the bear leads you toward Ragnar, look to your left. You'll see a dark area you can run into, and you'll find this symbol there. Do it quickly because a timer starts once you get out of range of the bear's light.
- Hourglass: Change - After getting the Madonna symbol move to the right of the bear. Further up you'll see a line of courage orbs going out (to the right) into the darkness. Follow them for this symbol.
- Serpent: Sensibility - After getting the Hourglass symbol stay on the right of the bear. Just up from it (almost at the end of the hall) you'll see this symbol just off the path behind a bear. You don't need to go into the dark for it--just dodge the bear.
- Cornucopia: Wealth - Defeat King Ragnar in the first deception game without losing a single round.
- Griffon: treasure - Defeat King Ragnar in the deception game without losing a single round.
Zeppelin Assault
- Sword: Justice - The first bear Iorik helps will ask him to help his brother, who is through the gate in front of him. Open the gate and save the bear to get this symbol
- Alpha and Omega: Inevitability - Right after you smash the flamethrower. You’ll see it on some tracks along with some sky iron
When are you going to finish this guide off mate?? Im stuck on the last question i need to unlock but you dont have an explanation on how to get it....
Why did a place like Bovanger exist?
I dont get it, i have searched the internet and looked on so many sites but no one lists how to get it, i have come across a couple who state they have it but dont know how they got it, some recieved it for completing level and others got it after fighting the Golden Monkey, im baffed, iv tried everything and still no question unlocked and still no acheivement. Have a look at the thread i have posted on this page asking for help. This is a nightmare, you help would be much appreciated. Thanks

04-02-2008, 06:18 PM
- Tree: Fidelity - Use insight on the large tree in the second cave (the ones Iorik can’t enter) when you’re fighting the witches

I have not been on here for a while & when I had finished Golden Compass I realized that one symbol meaning is missing Bull - Earth
When I looked up the thread for
Golden Compass - Symbol Guide I noticed that there is only 2 locations for Symbol Bull, But the one I am missing & I'm sure there are others out there too that are missing the same thing.
please make a note to any one who does not have that stated in their Guide or Faq.
But if someone out there could help that would be a Blast & a Sign of good Faith.

I finished Trollesund, and I defeated 3 spyflies, but I'm still missing Candle : Faith and Ant : Tedium. Are you suppose to get them automatically or do you have to find the symbol somewhere? Are there more then 3 spyflies? Do you have to defeat the spyflies without any assists?

As for as Candle: Faith, I got this no problem, but I can't remember if it was awarded of found (sorry).
I played twice to get the flies. The important information SHOULD BE AT THE TOP OF THE TROLLESUND SECTION. Why get to the bottom of the list and read, "Oh by the way you needed to do this special thing AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF THIS LEVEL to get the symbol :mad:. So after my second play through, I had 4 flies and the symbol was awarded at the end of the level. I did not use any helping items (marbles, flash powder, etc..).

Well, I beat the level again last night and I got the Candle-Faith symbol. The only thing I did different was the first time through I didn't beat the kid in the race on my first try (Didn't think about using Pan's Dash ability). I still didn't get Ant - Tedium though. I defeated 3 spyflies with no items/assists. I looked around for a forth or a symbol laying around, but I didn't get it. Please help!!

uggh...That sucks.
The symbol (as I recall) appeared after the fight with the last fly, that would be the last fly on the level (near the back of the map, near the kid you race).
Wait I think I know...(I hope). When you beat the last fly did you finish the level?? I may be wrong about the symbol on the ground, it may be rewarded at the end. I fact as I'm typing I'm sure it's awarded at the very end of the level. Meaning that you'll have to beat the flies and finish the entire level, when the chapter review screen appears the symbol will be awarded in the far right hand slot.
Good luck.

I have a correction for the main post: In Bolvangar, the Compass:Science Symbol, you have to trick both the kid between the tables and the kid by the camel symbol. Also, after you tell all the kids that you are breaking out and talk to roger, don't talk to the kid between the tables again because if you do, it won't let you talk to him again. Wait to talk to him until after you've thown the food at Larry.

I can help with this, but it's been a while so I doubt I'll be super specific.
This symbol is above the area where you see the stationary railroad boxcars, before you jump onto the series of floating boxes that being to sink. In order to get to the floating boxes, you have to climb up to an area where Pan (pantamelion - sp?) will chew away at some rope, dropping a box. Before I walked the balance beam for Pan to cut the rope, I turned right (or climbed higher and turned right) and traversed across to the right (probably using a combination of jump, swing, glide) to get to the symbol.
Hope this points you in the right direction.

When the bear asks you to save his brother, there are two gates. The one on the left side (behind the bear) takes you to his brother. The one on the right takes you towards the end of the level.
There is a chain on the left side of the gate behind the bear, it will ask you to press buttons in order to pull the gate open. Walk through and save the brother bear, and the other bear will walk over and thank you. The symbol spawns right next to them.

Great guide, very helpful. Just wanted to note that Griffon: Treasure is obtained by getting green on every mini-game only for the second deception round. So it has nothing to do with the first or the third round. I missed a single mini-game during all 3 deceptions on my first play (in the 2nd round) and I didnt get the symbol. It was my last symbol so I went back to play the level again and right after the 2nd round was complete with perfect on all the games my achievement unlocked. So if anyone is in a similar situation rest assured that youre free to promptly eject the disc from your drive as soon as you complete that round, proceed to break it in half, throw it in the trash, ignite with flammable liquid, ect.

FYI to anybody who had Bee: Sweetness not appear for them. What I did was restart the level from the nearest checkpoint and go to that area again and it was there.
I guess for some reason it just glitched and didn't appear that one time.

- Chameleon: Patience - this appears after you spit plums with Roger on the roof
This symbol does not appear. It would seem you need to do something more specific. So far I either get nothing or Candle: Learning. Could somebody please explain how you go about getting this symbol to appear?
Edit: After many retries it would appear that provided you do not hit all 3 scholars, this symbol unlocks straight into your Journal. If unsure, after spitting plums have a check. I only hit the last scholar (not sure if that makes a difference).

sorry if someone already asked about this but
where on the ship is the
-Anchor : Steadfastness - When you climb down the ladders to mop, one side has a netting you can use climb on, use insight on the anchor that is just next to the netting.
not quite following on what netting youre talking about

The ship has two sides, one one of the side you can climb down to a small area that is just above the water. Walk to the end of that platform and while facing the ships hull you'll see the option to climb (if you're the right animal). Climb the netting and go to the right.

I strongly recommend you read the ENTIRE guide for the chapter you're working on. The way the guide was written is bass-ackwards, some really important information is AT THE END of the section; when you get to it it's too late and you have to start over.
Enjoy - if it's possible with this POS :)

Second part of Bolvangar, when u try to destroy the separation machine u fight a man and the gold monkey, defeat the gold monkey by fighting not dodging and the submissive marionette will be given.
Thank you so much!

Please help! I'm in the same boat here, all I keep getting is the Candle(after hitting each person)... do i have to only get the last person?

Guys i need some help on finding 2 more symbols! It's so frustrating:
Horse - Fidelity
Marionette - Submission
where are these sneaky symbols?

Hey guys,
I cannot find the Horse: Fidelity, and also seems that it's not posted in any guide.
Any one remembers where is it located?
Thanx.

Moon: Chastity - Right before you enter the 2nd vent on Bolvangar (that's the one with the fan above you), you can jump using the hawk ability to the symbol. You can't really see it because of the awful camera angle, but it's basically to the right of the vent and across the gap.
STEP 1: Face the crawl space to the vent
STEP 2: move right while facing the crawlspace
STEP 3: turn around and run stright off the platform into what seems like a void; use the hawk glide and about half way you will see a long ledge with the symbol

Im missing one of the breads. I have nourishment and sacrafice, does anyone know what and where the last one is?
Thanks
EDIT:
OK, I think I figured it out as I just got the achievement. First of all, it was 'Bread: Sheppard'. Go to Svalbard, at the end you fight King Ragnar, beat him without taking any damage. Im pretty sure thats how I got it, I played that level a few times and this was the only thing I did that was different from the previous attempts.
You should add this to your guide as I believe its missing. Great job on the guide, it helped me out a lot.
The secret task is to defeat Ragnor with more than 85% health (you can use the level select to skip to the fight)

- Thunderbolt: Chance - After talking to Iorik you’ll see this on top some crates on the way to the Magesterium. You’ll have to use the cat and sloth abilities to get to it
I just don't get this one. I see a symbol, before that I see a big box/crate which I can climb on, then I see two poles on which I can swing on using the 'sloth' ability, but I can only swing the first pole and when I jump off, I always land back on the ground and never can reach the second pole and I don't see any other options myself.
Can anyone help me here?

After swinging on the first pole, let go, change into the bird and fly closer. You may have to change back to the sloth to catch the next pole.

- Ant : Tedium - Don't hide from any of the spy flies. They'll attack you--don't dodge but hit all button prompts properly. This will capture them, and once you capture all the splyflies (there are three) the symbol will appear. The first fly comes right at the start when you walk towards the town. The second one appears when you reenter the town after you had the chat in the Witch Counsil. And the final one appears after talking to Iorek.
Ok, so it took me a while to get this right, but now i think i get it but, still no ant thingie.
I capture all the three flies and after the last one a golden shiny orbthingie apperes on the ground, i take it but nothing happens.. same thing four times now.. any suggestions?

Great guide btw.

Hiya, i was wondering if anyone could help?
I'm on my last symbol sun-truth and ive replayed the level so many times i think i'm losing the plot!
I've defeated the three witches, ignored knocking down the bridge and continued on the long route... the first cave i find on the left is quite a way up and i've gone in, crossed all of the balances, cimbed up and got the yellow oil... and thats it... nothing else is there! I don't hear the convo between the two witches so i must be missing something, just no idea what!
Thanks for the guide btw, it's saved my sanity more than once :)
