Guide to Neverwinter's 'The Ghoul Lords' side quest. Learn how to find the sewer entrance, defeat the Ghoul Lord, and claim your rewards.

Alright, let's dive into a little side adventure in the Slums called 'The Ghoul Lords.' It's not marked on your map, so you'll need to keep an eye out for a hidden sewer entrance right in the middle of the Slums. Once you find it, head on in!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, you'll need to clear out some of the local residents. Take down the Mohrgs and Ghouls that are hanging around.
  2. 2
    After you've dealt with the initial wave, make your way to the south-west corner of this sewer area. You'll find a Ghoul Outcast there. Go chat with him.
  3. 3
    He's got a bit of a family drama going on and needs your help to retrieve an amulet from his brother. Agree to help him out, and he'll officially give you the quest.
  4. 4
    Now, head over to the south-east corner of the map. This is where you'll face the Ghoul Lord. He's not a pushover – he'll summon Skeleton Chieftans to try and confuse you, and he's got a good selection of offensive spells. Just keep your wits about you; he's manageable once you get a feel for his attacks.
  5. 5
    Once you've defeated the Ghoul Lord, search his remains. You're looking for the 'Amulet of Power.' While you're at it, check the chest in this same area. If you happen to be doing Colmarr's quest, you can find the 'Lever of Wind' in there.
  6. 6
    Now, head back to the Ghoul Outcast in the south-west corner and give him the Amulet of Power. He'll reward you with the 'Lever of Water' (again, for Colmarr's quest), a 'Sewer Control Key,' and 150 XP.
  7. 7
    Here's a little choice: after you get your reward, you can actually turn on the Ghoul Outcast and take the amulet for yourself if you want.
  8. 8
    You'll notice a locked door in the south-east corner of the sewer. To get through that, you'll need to complete the 'Nine Lives' side quest to snag the key for it.
  9. 9
    Take some time to explore the rest of the sewer system. There are more opportunities to gain XP in the unexplored areas.
  10. 10
    Finally, head to the room in the north-west corner. For what to do in there, you'll want to check out Colmarr's side quest guide for the specifics.
Tips
  • Keep an eye out for that hidden sewer entrance in the Slums – it's easy to miss if you're not looking!
  • The Ghoul Lord can be a bit overwhelming with his summons. Focus on him first, but be ready to deal with the Skeleton Chieftans if they get too close.
  • Don't forget to grab the Lever of Wind from the chest if you're on Colmarr's quest.
  • The Sewer Control Key you get is pretty important, so make sure you hold onto it.
  • If you're aiming for completion, remember that the locked door in the south-east requires the 'Nine Lives' quest to be finished.
