Neverwinter Nights: Kingmaker Hints

How can I get the cows to follow me out of the cave?

  • 1 of 12: The Stan gave you a hint when you got the quest from him.
  • 2 of 12: You need some grain to attract the cows with.
  • 3 of 12: There's some in the sack pile that's in the room just west of the earlier path split. (You may have already picked it up if you noticed the sack pile earlier.)
  • 4 of 12: The cows won't smell it on you and follow you, so you'll have to do something else with it.
  • 5 of 12: Try right-clicking on the grain item in your inventory and seeing what all icons come up.
  • 6 of 12: There's one called "activate item." Try that one.
  • 7 of 12: When you get the little selection cursor, click it on yourself.
  • 8 of 12: That'll drop some grain on the ground next to you, which draws the cows.
  • 9 of 12: NOTE: The grain also draws any nearby chickens, so it's helpful to kill them off before you start dropping grain.
  • 10 of 12: Go back the way you came, using the grain every few steps to keep the cows following along.
  • 11 of 12: TIP: It helps to put the grain item down on the quickbar so you can just hit a function key to drop some grain.
  • 12 of 12: If the cows stop following you, go back and use the grain closer to them to get them going again. If that doesn't work, try clicking on a cow or two (but don't attack them).
