Complete walkthrough for the Renowned Explorer quest in Pathfinder: Kingmaker. Learn how to save Jubilost, pass skill checks, and recruit him to help find the troll's lair.
Walkthrough
- 1Head to the A Ford Across the Skunk River area southwest of your capital. This area is accessible from Tuskdale by traveling Northwest, then Southwest.
- 2Upon arrival, follow the road northwest until you encounter a gnome. Approach him to trigger the quest.
- 3You will find Jubilost and other gnomes fighting kobolds in the river. Defeat the Kobold Sentinels and Kobold Archers.
- 4More kobolds will appear on the northern bank, and their leader, King Tartuk, will appear on the cliffs across the river. Defeat these kobolds, including the Kobold Sniper.
- 5After the second wave of kobolds is defeated, Tartuk will retreat, and Jubilost's cart will be threatened by the river. Interact with the cart to start an Illustrated Book Episode.
- 6To save the cart, you must first succeed at a skill check: Mobility 15. If this fails, the subsequent check's DC increases.
- 7Next, you must pass a Lore (Nature) 10 check to calm the ponies. If you fail this, you cannot save the cart.
- 8If successful, you will have three options to pull the cart out: Lore (Nature) 19, Athletics 20, or Charisma 15. If you previously tied a rope, a Strength 14 option is also available. Choose the option your party is most likely to succeed at.
- 9After saving the cart, speak with Jubilost. Engage in dialogue, asking about his fame, his presence, the dwarven outpost, and your shared goal of finding the troll's lair.
- 10If you saved his wagon, Jubilost will agree to travel with you. If not, you will need to find the ruins yourself and then return to him.
Jubilost's Role:
- Jubilost is an Alchemist, functioning as a ranged support character.
- He can be trained for Trickery but has a slower arcane spell progression.
- He can be appointed as your Treasurer.
- Recruitment of Jubilost as a companion.
- Access to Jubilost's unique Alchemist abilities and potential as Treasurer.
- Progress in the main questline towards finding the troll's lair.
