Cowwy's cheese quest

Post by DalTXColtsFan »

Hello,

I'm trying to find cowwy's cheese. I assume the graveyard is the one to the east of Olde Porte, and I have to go to the NW corner of the graveyard to go down a level. I *thought* i explored all 3 levels thoroughly, and got all the way to the vampire at the bottom of the 3rd level and took that ladder that exits me to Olde Porte.

Is it truly a "secret" room? Is it that room with the 2 doors that are blocked by the square of wall? If so, how do I get in? If not, hints on where to look will be appreciated.

Thanks

Looking at the mini map can help you find walls that you can pass through. Once you go down the stairs, go up through the secret room and it should be there iirc

since the cheese has been moved does the cowwy dialog need updating?

Yeah, probably be a good idea. A quest that early not being 100% might turn off newbies tot he game.

Does that mean it's actually not in the crypts at all anymore? Is it in Olde Port?

Entering from teh graveyard (actually the only way to get in) the cheese is in the first level of 'Goblin Crypts' - and it is in a secret room (ie. via secret door) - the dialog looks right.

I just explored the first level of the goblin crypt and the only secret room I could find was smack dab in the middle of the map, with a phantom and a pitcher on a table in it. No cheese. No chance I'd ever explored that room before.

On the second level There's an unexplorable area toward the middle of the bottom where two doors each have a concrete wall square in front of them - that's not it is it?

Suggestions always welcome and appreciated.

if the cheese isn't there you might have to reactivate the quest as it disappears after about an hour

(on a tech note the whole finding items on the ground quests should be phased out as they have always been problematic like this)

OK I talked to someone in-game and the person told me that if I wait too long I have to go back and reset the quest by going back to the person and typing help. It worked - the cheese was right where eggmceye said it should be.

NICE!

I had the same issue with the talisman in bayside - i waited too long to go find it and had to go back and talk to the guard, then it was right where it should be.

Maybe you can change the quests so that the items respawn quickly, but you can only pick them up if you have the quest active. A lot of earlier quests are pretty monotonous find and kill quests as it is. Seeking items is a little variety.

I could change it so it spawns a chest and that has the item inside
I'd have to workshop it and see what fits best
