FarketyFarkFAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

help me

In Vizima there is a gross old biddy called 'old lady' walking about. She's not all that easy to find again since there are so many like her (but not with her dialogue). I believe she gives you info that helps with the swamp monster quest but I can't get her to talk to me. She says "I've talked to much, my throat is a little dry' and the give gift icon shows up.

I've tried to give her bottled water, cow's milk, goat's milk, every kind of beer I have, every kind of wine I have, mead and she doesn't talk! Some items make her get pissed off and walk away and she doesn't take the item from my inventory. Other items, like Beer, she seems to take, at least they're gone from my inventory, but she just keeps saying 'what speak up'. I've given her more than 10 beers, which in this game is enough to knock out the fiercest drinking partners and her dialogue doesn't change. What is it she wants?

My replies don't seem to be working.

Hope this doesn't come up later as a triple post.

I'm not talking about Shani's grandma. I'm talking about an old lady out in the streets of the temple district near to the bootblack. Shani's grandma was easy because I'd already got the ring from the bootblack that makes old people like me. Shani's grandma thought I was some kind of super priest (calling on her granddaughter at home in the middle of the night?) and couldn't send me up to Shani's room quick enough. Shani was half naked the second time I tried to see her as I went about 4am. The grandma sure is easy to please with that ring.

I dont remember if that old lady helps you complete the quest but i do remember an old lady asking for a drink......if i remember correctly, i just gave her a beer. Maybe its a bug or something...or maybe you should try completing the quest in every other way possible. if none of them works, wait for The Witcher enhanced and maybe the bug will be fixed. You can also try cheats if you are realy desperate.

I don't think this old lady is imperitive to any quest, she's just a minor NPC but not being able to see what she does is driving me crazy!

You're probably right, it's probably a bug. I wonder why I can find info about other minor NPCs and not her online though. I can find info about the lady who wants pork in the outskirts, who's probably equal to this character, but not this one.

If someone else does know for a fact what works with this old woman, I'd like to know, that way I can be sure it's a bug and forget about it.

I was using v1.2 but now have patched to v1.3 and still having the same problem.

Hey! So i had the same question. Well it turns out I needed to go to the swamp and perhaps see the old ruined tower first, then i offered her a drink of Kaedwenian Stout and she tells a story about the tower and the golems and how the swamp began. I had tried all the stuff you had then i said heck with it, did some running around and tada found her again and this time she told me a story. No journal entry or anything that I noticed. Good luck!
