City Watch | Neverwinter Neverwinter Nights 2 Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

When you're finished talking to Duncan and Sand, go to the city watch quarters (N1-5) and talk to your old friend Cormick.

Neverwinter's Newest Watchman

Quest from: Marshal Cormick

Your first goal will be to help a merchant named Hagen (N1-3) defend against Caleb's cronies. Go to his house and talk to Reesa. After a short conversation Caleb's men will appear. You can either kill them or accept their bribe (the quest will be done either way). Go back to the quarters to get your next assignment, which will be killing Caleb (N1-2). The bandit will try to bribe you, but don't pay attention to his pleads and finish him. Go back to Cormick.

Enforcing Order In the Docks

Quest from: Marshal Cormick

You now have to go around the Docks and talk to each of the guard post's leaders to find out it they're turncoats or not. As it turns out, most of them is corrupted - you can try to reason with them (Diplomacy, Intimidate) and bring them back to the light side of the force, or just kill them. When you visit all 4 posts and deal with their problems, go back to the HQ - it's on fire. Talk to one of the guards around and you'll know that you should go to Captain Brelaina in the Merchant Quarter.

HINT: There are a few new event appearing on the map this time around, check out (N1-7), (N1-8), (N1-9), (N1-13). You'll also meet Qara near the Sunken Flagon - after the cut-scene you'll be able to join forces with her. She'll be waiting inside Duncan's tavern (check out Qara's personal quest for details on her).

Speak with Brelaina / Weapon Smugglers

Quest from: Brelaina

Captain Brelaina can be found in the City Watch HQ in Merchant Quarter (N2-2). She'll tell you that your next quest will be to stop the weapon smugglers who are moving a large shipment through the Back Alley (N1-6). Head over there.

At the beginning of the level you'll see a group of city watch taking bribe from some bandits (1). You can intimidate them so they let you through without any problems, or fight them. At (2) there's a huge group of guards and bandits - someone from your party will propose to distract them by lighting something up. Send somebody (Qara, Neeshka, or Elanee) to do so and you'll only have to fight the bandits. At (3) there's a group of bandits that are initially neutral to you and can be reasoned with. If you can't convince them that you want the same thing to happen, you'll have to kill them.

At the end (4) there's the weapon shipment and a numerous crew guarding it. This time the fight will be necessary. There's a lot of enemies, so if you have Qara with you just use some fireballs on them before they scatter. When you defeat them all, Neeshka will propose that you pawn some of the weapons before taking the rest back to Brelaina. If you agree, you'll gain some influence on her but loose it on Khelgar.

The Warehouse

Quest from: Brelaina

This time you have to destroy the warehouse the gang is using as a weapon stash. You'll find the entrance in the Merchant District (N2-3). Inside there's a lot of bandits to deal with. You goal is to reach (*), where you'll find a goon named Barlowe, hiding behind some crates. Destroy them and kill him. Next to his body you'll find some documents. Look through them and the quest will be complete. Neeshka will now want some time for herself to find some additional loot, let her do so if you wish.

When you leave the area, you'll meet an ambitious guard named Damon, who's just preparing his men to strike the warehouse. When you tell him that you've already done the job, he'll gladly take his team to The Sunken Flagon for an ale or two. Go back to Brelaina, then.

Protect the Watch's Informant

Quest from: Brelaina

Your quest is to defend the watch's informant named Fihelis against his fellow bandits' revenge. Go to his mansion (N2-4). On Level 1 there will be several rogue-type bandits sneak-attacking you, so watch out for their criticals. At (1) there's a vault (not much to get there, but it's worth checking out), and at (2) you'll find stairs that'll lead you to L2.

At the second level find a door (*) that'll lead you to Fihelis' room, where Moire is trying to take her revenge. Kill her and take her stuff (some interesting items for Neeshka in there). Talk to Fihelis and persuade him to give him a reward if you want to [you can take it even further, forcing him to give you the location of his hidden gem stash (N2-*)]. Go back to Brelaina, who'll now send you to Old Owl Well to find a missing Waterdeep emissary.
