📋 About This Mod

This quest bugged me for ages. As far as I can tell it seems the original intent for this quest would see a Bronto get loose in the Orzammar commons and somehow allow Nug Wrangler Boermor\'s Nugs to escape (This event was marked as cut from the game). 10 are flagged in the plot to have escaped, although only 5 are in game. There is a note in the plot section for a \'special\' reward item to be given out upon the return of all the Nugs. My guess would be \'Nugbane\' the crossbow weapon (which is not available in game by normal means). Well, I\'ve lowered the completion target to 5 so that it can be completed with the Nug\'s that they bothered to put into the game. I have also restored the Nugbane crossbow to be given after the 5th Nug\'s return. Also, this will allow a final dialogue line to be spoken by Boermor that was previously un reachable. I have also increased the XP and silver gain for the final reward to compensate for the 5 missing nugs that should have been there. (About 250xp and like 60 extra silver, as I felt this was fair). Unzip with 7zip and pop the file into your DAO override folder.

  • Place the mod files in your Dragon Age: Origins 'override' folder (Documents/BioWare/Dragon Age/packages/core/override) to ensure it loads without a mod manager.
  • If you're using the Ultimate Edition, test the quest early in Orzammar to confirm the fix works with your version.
  • Load order isn't critical for this fix, but if you use other quest mods, install this one last to avoid conflicts.
