Neverwinter Nights 2 Hints

Destroy the Bridges

  • 1 of 14: After you finish the "Fortify Crossroad Keep" quest, you'll need to make your way to the keep's war room.
  • 2 of 14: It's directly south of the area you're in, so find the door in the south wall and go through it.
  • 3 of 14: If a conversation doesn't automatically start up when you enter the war room, talk to Kana.
  • 4 of 14: The first thing to attend to will be destroying the bridges that the undead will use to get to the keep.
  • 5 of 14: Have Grobnar fashion some blastglobes, then choose which Graycloak contingent and which two companions you want with you. (A good melee fighter and a good spellcaster would make a nice companion combo.)
  • 6 of 14: After you finish talking to Daeghun near the bridges, head south and then east down the road until you reach a group of Graycloaks fighting undead.
  • 7 of 14: After the undead are finished off, assign the rescued Graycloak contingent to whichever companion you have the most influence with to get them an attack bonus.
  • 8 of 14: Rest up and rebuff if you need to, then move on to find a couple more groups of undead to kill.
  • 9 of 14: As you approach the first bridge, watch out for a powerful fireball trap across the path.
  • 10 of 14: After the first bridge is secured, cross it and move on to the second one, dealing with another trap and more undead along the way.
  • 11 of 14: When you cross the second bridge, a shadow reaver will appear and summon lots of additional undead forces.
  • 12 of 14: However, it will chicken out, so it's okay if you didn't bring anyone along who can cast the True Name spell.
  • 13 of 14: If you're all rested and buffed up when you cross the bridge, you should be able to take down the undead without too much trouble. (Have someone fireball them if you can.)
  • 14 of 14: After you finish them all off (including the skeleton archers on nearby ridges), a cut-scene will start in which the bridges are blown up and you return to the keep.
