The VERY last step is unMQable with Councilman Taldarius. I tried it when I had 7th earring and no Hope Stone. The Councilman simply tells you that the item is useless without the other(stone without the signet or signet without the stone), and even if it WAS MQable you'd still have to have 220 in every tradeskill for it not to be eaten on turn in.
I do not understand this. I am attempting to make the pure bar of velium in a forge using 3 bars of enchanted velium, coldain temper, purified water, and a velium smithy hammer. I get DNC. Any ideas?
You need the QUESTED Coldain Smithy Hammer from the 3rd or 4th step of the Coldain Ring Quest. It's recieved by saving Tain Hammerfrost in Eastern Wastes.
I think it would be usefull to have that added to the quest writeup about how to get a coldin smithing hammer .. i beat myself silly trying to figure what i was doing wrong and reading all this wonderfully helpfull info about the quest... well im on my Jewelcraft section and it looks like im gona spend this weekend repairing my Coldain faction... well at least i will get some cash for tradeskills laying waist to the giants...
You must find Tain Hammerfrost in Eastern Wastes. He will be laying down near the dragon bridge wounded. Upon hailing him he'll say he needs help, if you reply I will help he will stand up(only to fall back down) and about 5 giants will come rushing at him. You kill the named giant and loot a vial from him(forgot exact name) and hand it to Tain(assuming the giants didn't kill him). He will hand you back the Coldain Smithing Hammer. If Tain does die while you try to kill the giants you can wait for him to respawn(unsure on respawn time) and just retrigger it and hand him the vial then and get your hammer. I don't recommend doing this unless absolutely neccessary as he is still needed for the coldain rings and I don't remember his spawn time.
Tain Hammerfrost is about a 3-4 hour spawn. The item the named giant drops is Frozen Elixir. Both The elixer and hammer or droppable, so no need to fix coldain faction for this if you have someone else who can get it for you. You do need coldain faction to get the etching tools from meg though.

You do not need coldain faction to get the etching tools. The NPC is a merchant, so even if your faction is bottomed out, you will only be dubious, which is fine to get the tools.
