Guide to Neverwinter's Gorgotha the Gold Dragon side quest. Learn how to get the quest, avoid angering Gorgotha, and defeat Klauth for your reward.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Speak with Gorgotha in her cave, located in the east in the Spine of the World.
  2. 2
    She will explain that Klauth wants her eggs and ask you to bring her Klauth's head.
  3. 3
    Agree to do this for her to acquire the quest.
  4. 4
    Crucial Warning: DO NOT try to open the door leading to her eggs. Doing so will make her hostile and prevent you from completing the quest and receiving the reward.
  5. 5
    Refer to the main quest section for details on defeating Klauth.
  6. 6
    When you deliver Klauth's head to Gorgotha, she will reward you with 750 XP and a Ceremonial Urthgardt Belt. This belt grants immunity to insta-kill death spells.
Tips
  • After completing the quest by delivering Klauth's head, you may choose to slay Gorgotha. This will grant a good amount of XP, Dragons Blood, more gold, and items from her Egg Room.
  • Slaying Gorgotha will also grant 5 alignment points towards evil.
  • If playing as a Paladin with 80-100 good alignment points, killing Gorgotha will not shift your alignment.
  • If your good alignment points are below 80, you may wish to let Gorgotha live to avoid an alignment shift.
  • Gorgotha is a challenging foe. She has a powerful Knockdown and Disarm attack. She attacks with a bolt of electricity from afar and uses fiery breath at close range.
  • Spellcasters can use the cave's large size to their advantage. Use Haste and move around to cast powerful long-range spells.
  • Examine Gorgotha to discover her strengths and weaknesses before engaging her.
