Aid Grimel Quest

[Karynna Suxcle]

Someone from my guild did try the final turn in with smithing under 220. She had MQ'd the brewing part and did all the rest and went to do the Hope Stone turn in part. When she hailed the NPC and said tha part about the Marked Runed Signet he said something along the lines of You should not have that item with your abilities. I don't remember the exact wording.

She did the turn in anyway and he returned both the Hope Stone and MRS to her and would not accept them. I assume once she gets 220 smithing it will be no problem.

Yes, this earring isnt meant to be the end-all earring that you'll never replace. However, its effects are far too weak for the effort involved. You can go kill a named mob in Chardok-B with about 2 high-end groups and get the Band of the Shai`Din King which has Composure on it - thats 3 mana regen plus 3 hitpoint regen. That's pretty sad that an item that easy to get has a far better effect than the Signet of the Arcane which only has FT3, especially considering that the runed/marked runed signet all had regen while the final reward has 0 regen. In addition, people dont need 3+ items all with Preservation of Xegony on it - put an effect thats not on everyone's elemental armor and 3 out of 4 god's bp. Plus, preservation of xegony becomes outdated from PoTime focus effects, while others like Timeburn are still viable. Or how about Quickening of Mithaniel or Solusek? Those effects arent on many items, especially if you arent a plate class.

as a melee, the signet of might is a great earing

Sure it may not have 180hp like some of Plane of Time earings, but it's an earing that will be hard to replace especially w/ the Aura of Bravery ..and the free 8% dodge mod (dunno how effective that mod is)

Aid Grimel to Plane of Time?

Maybe we should all feedback to have this quest extended to the Plane of Time. I think it kind of sucks to work this hard for earrings that will eventually become outdated when you advance through Time. Obviously getting access to Time is very difficult, but for the players who worked on this quest for such a long time, I think they should make the quest involve the Plane of Time as well since it is still in the storyline. I believe the quest was implemented before Time was finished and they did not include it. I do not know about everyone, but I am sure going to /feedback everyday to atleast have it as an option.

Folks,

Based upon my desire, and the results of the Poll I had posted regarding this quest, there is now a version of the Quest Writeup that is broken down into 9 pages.

Quest Writeup in Pages

The current Single Page version is still up on the site, but the version broken into 9 pages is more current. If you could review and identify problems (There is some text missing in the last step), I would apprecite it.

ugg

Our guild has alot of people workin on the Aid to grimil quest. We are purpetually short on bow staffs for flecting part. anyone have any idea wich island or wich house would be the best for farming them?

[Taraddar]

If memory serves the bow staffs drop off the bee things. Personally my guild has probably 2 backpacks full of bow staffs and little to no silks.

[Kronepsis]

Krazick, in the Tailoring section the Signet is missing Int. Should be same bonus as the other stats.

[Ortrillian]

Air silks & upgrades

On the rareness of Air silks---We get tons of silks off the encounter in which there are dozens of little spiders spawning, sorry I don't know the name of the Mini or ring. But it's the one where you have to kill like 3 large spiders while all these little ones are running around. I'd say the little ones drop at least 1 silk 95% of the time but most drop 2.

On upgrades---As a cleric, I don't have many HP regen items, nor are any on my wish list of items. Personally I would have liked the regen over the FT and mana pres since my FT is well over the cap and there are several other items with decent mana pres focus effects. It would be REALLY REALLY cool if with the LDoN expansion you could add or modify the focus effects on items like the stats will be. I have 3 casting focus effect items and it would be nice to modify them to something like ID4 since wizards etc. get chosen over clerics on the damage focus effect items.

Few points here:

1) (picky) The Introduction has the links to all the other parts at the bottom, but all the other parts have the link section at the top. Any chance all the other parts could duplicate the link section at the bottom? (/picky)

2) Part 2 - Brewing. Grimel now gives you all three dusts at once. I will post his updated text here when I have dug it out.

3) Part 4 - Pottery; the flag requirement. I have Saryrn and Vallon Zek - this is not enough. I will probably be getting MithMarr before Agnarr, so I will report back then as to whether that is enough (I suspect it will be, since in the general PoP progression Agnarr is not needed till later).

[Krazick]

Added INT +12 to the Marked Signet,

Nicola,
Added the table of links to the bottom of each Aid Grimel Quest Article, noted the 3 Fermenting Dusts being provided.

When you find the flag for Pottery (or someone else) needed, we can update that.

2) Part 2 - Brewing. Grimel now gives you all three dusts at once. I will post his updated text here when I have dug it out.

Notice that the dusts are also not no drop.

Someone with lots of cash can now level brewing much easier than mino hero brews.

OK, just a confirmation question here... the DB shows the dust as simply

fermenting dust
MAGIC ITEM
WT: 0.1 Size: SMALL
Class: NONE
Race: NONE

For someone that has obtained it...

is it truely Tradeable?
Is it Stackable?

[Kronepsis]

Yes, the dusts stack.

Yes, the dusts are not no drop.

Yes, the dusts DO sell to a vendor. I forgot how much but they sell for real cheap.

[Krazick]

made the pile of dust.... oh, sorry... pile of 3 dusts...

Hmmm... is there a difference?
