A Lost Nug is a side quest from in Orzammar Commons that requires the Warden to help Nug Wrangler Boermor find some lost nugs. The quest ends when you retrieve one nug, but you can still trade more in for money.

Walkthrough

In Orzammar several small, pink creatures await. These are nugs. Grab them and take them back to Nug Wrangler Boermor for a reward.

Nugs squeak when they are nearby, making them easier to find. Nug locations (listed from left to right on Orzammar Commons map:

1. South of the Nug Wrangler, near the Deep Roads entrance.
2. North of the Nug Wrangler, off to the left.
3. On the bridge in front of The Proving (have to walk down it a little ways to see it).
4. Hiding the alleyway past Janar Armorers, next to Filda, Ruck's mother.
5. Next to Brother Burkel.

Rewards

12 and 25 experience points for each nug returned

Notes

Boermor accepts one nug per click. If you discover nugs rooting about in your pack, talk to Boermor again until he takes them all. He will say "Atrast Vala, my nug-wrangling friend" when there are no more nugs in your pack. There still might be nugs left to wrangle, though.

The Prima Guide states that an exceptional reward is available for collecting all 10 nugs. However, there are only 5 collectable nugs in the game. It's impossible to wrangle nugs outside Orzammar Commons; none of the following nugs can be captured for this quest:

• Leliana's Cute Nug
• The Pearl's Nugs ("surprise me" option)
• Carta Hideout's Nugs
• Summoning Science's Spirit Hog

Bugs

Boermor will always say there are more nugs out there when you hand in a nug, even when you hand in the last available nug. No doubt this minor bug combined with Prima's 10 Nug statement has provided extra impetus to stalk nugs all over Ferelden.
