Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark Hints

How does this demonic grappling hook work?

  • 1 of 6: Have you killed the mimic and gotten it yet?
  • 2 of 6: It's very handy (so to speak) to put it down on the quickbar.
  • 3 of 6: Once it's down there, try hitting the quick key for it.
  • 4 of 6: The hand will reach out and try to grab onto something.
  • 5 of 6: If it grabs onto a fixture like a hanging chain or a pillar, it'll pull you across to the fixture. If it grabs onto something small like a gem pile, it'll drag that back to you. (Note that the item the hand grabs onto doesn't have to register as an interactive item. For instance, the hanging chains don't, but you can use them to swing around like the mimic did.)
  • 6 of 6: Now that you have the thing, you should start thinking about how to use it to reach otherwise-unreachable areas. It'll be useful for that in several upcoming locations.
