Neverwinter Nights: Shadows of Undrentide Hints
How can I free Zidan from the stingers and escape?
1 of 8: What's happening in the ritual room is that poor Zidan is being made into a sacrifice for some lifeforce-stealing ritual that will help the stinger high priest animate more ghouls. You've got to stop him before Zidan's life is totally drained.
2 of 8: The high priest and his foul altar are in the center of the room, up a ramp. Your first priorities are to bash the altar and kill the high priest, in that order.
3 of 8: If you're a powerful melee fighter with lots of hit points, you can just dodge the ghouls and run up the ramp and hack the priest and altar to pieces. Otherwise, you'll want to target the altar with arrows and/or spells while dodging other enemies.
4 of 8: NOTE: All of the undead will re-die when you destroy the altar, so don't waste any time on attacking ghouls.
5 of 8: ALSO NOTE: It's a very good idea to wear the Amulet of Health from the treasure room in the main stinger cave so that the priest can't drain you with his negative energy rays.
6 of 8: After every hostile is down, search the high priest's corpse to find a Dire Mace +1 and a Ring of Resistance +1. Also check the treasure stash in the back of the room to find lots of gold.
7 of 8: Talk to Zidan to get him to follow you, then enter the yellow swirly teleporter that's behind the altar platform.
8 of 8: That'll return you to the tunnels just beneath the desert's surface, so climb up one of the three holes to get back to the caravan.
