Minor spoiler: Dog Meat

[Maever]

Has anyone fill up the cauldron with dog meat in Nalia's keep?
I done that and it gives me some dog meat which Umar hulks like!?!
Does it mean i can use it to distract the Umar hulks or something????

Hi Maever, welcome to the board!

Yes, you can use the Dog Meat to distract Umber Hulks and you'll even receive XP for your cleverness! (good on you for finding out about it without a walkthrough)

You need to be cautious however...it only works on the Umber Hulks who are located in the basement just before the fight with the Leader Troll. You need to slip an invisible thief by them carryig the Meat, and he can put it in the niche in the floor where the Dog Bones are hidden. This will distract them, so that the rest of your party can safely walk in.

daleson was useful after all. to the west of the umber hulk room are some cells, the nw-ish one has a pit near the back (where they initially tunneled in). in the pit are some dog bones. put the stew in it. you now have about 5 seconds before the hulks hear the dinner bell. hide, go invisible, whatever, but leave. once they're in you can shut the door to the cell hallway and forget about them.

hahaha....thx! =)

Welcome!!

.........But my dear Arch Queen, wouldn't you rather KILL them for exp points?

Well, my dearest Archlich...
I always put the Dog Stew in the hole first, get my XP, and when the U. Hulks are munching away at the meat, I kill them and they don't fight back! Can you say... cheese??

When I did the thing with the dog meat stew, the Umber Hulks disappeared and I didn't get a chance to kill them for more XP!

[Hayashi]

Well I killed the U-hulks first, then placed the stew...
