An effective CoQ hunting method is to find a cave, wait til a powerful but weak minded enemy approaches you, SEIZE CONTROL OF THEM WITH YOUR MIND POWERS, go on a berserk rampage with powerful creature (usually a bear) until it is dead or until you lose control of it, finish off creature if you lost control for some reason, devour/butcher the bodies littering the cave.
My last character was a somewhat successful tinker/psychic. That character died when he fell into a deep dark hole and I couldn't find his way back to the surface. I'm not sure what baboons were doing that far underground.
