Discover a clever trick in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic to completely bypass the tough Calo Nord fight on Tatooine. Learn the exact steps to avoid the encounter and save yourself some trouble.

Hey there! So, you're looking to make Calo Nord a non-issue? I've got a neat little trick for you, but it only works if you're tackling the Star Forge Quest on Tatooine. It’s a bit of a specific maneuver, so pay close attention!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    When you first encounter the Krayt Dragon and Calo Nord's crew, you'll have to go through the initial dialogue. Just let it play out.
  2. 2
    Once the talking is done, and Calo and his buddies are by the speeders, here's the crucial part: WALK. Do not run. Slowly make your way behind the Krayt Dragon's body.
  3. 3
    If you keep walking and don't sprint, Calo and his Aqualish and Rodian friends will completely ignore you. They'll just stay put by the speeders.
  4. 4
    Continue walking all the way to the SPT (Space Port Terminal). As long as you maintain a walking pace, you'll bypass the fight entirely.
Tips
  • This is a fantastic way to avoid one of the game's tougher fights, especially if you're not looking for a challenge or are struggling with it. Calo Nord can be a real pain!
  • Be aware that by skipping this fight, you will miss out on the experience points (XP) and any potential Dark Side Points (DSP) you would have gained from defeating him. If you're aiming for a specific alignment or build, keep this in mind.
  • I also noticed something interesting regarding the Krayt Dragon reward. If you refuse the reward after watching the cutscene (where the dragon gets mines in its face), you might not get the Light Side Points (LSP) that some guides mention. This is especially relevant if you're playing a Dark Side character and might have left the dragon alone earlier, missing out on pearls from Komad. It seems the game's logic for rewards can be a bit finicky depending on your choices.
  • Just a heads-up for those playing Dark Side characters: if you're leaving the dragon alone to avoid conflict or for other reasons, you might also miss out on the pearls if you killed Komad. It's a bit of a trade-off!
