  • Aid Grimel and Hope Stone

    I've searched. I come here a lot, so I'm not lazy but maybe I am blind.

    If you can help I would greatly appreciate it.

    I am working on the 4th earring at the moment (pauses to curse pottery).

    An Alliance mate whom I admire as a very dedicated tradeskiller and a very good person is finished with his save for the Hope Stone. I got mine on a night when he was not around. I would happily MQ it with him. I have not seen many drop and I would honestly rather he finish his quest first.

    Can I MQ my Hope Stone with him so that he can finish his quest? Or is that impossible?

    According to the quest walkthrough here on EQTC, this is not MQ-able, as the councilman rejects items if given one at a time.

      Then I am blind. I have the walkthrough printed out and refer to it on a daily basis - and still I did not find it.

      Thank you very much for your help.

        No worries Lling, it's a good thing you asked.

        You say, 'i am interested in the task'
        Councilman Taldarius says 'Very well Iustus. I warn you I will not grant this without proof that you possess a valiant spirit. You may have the trust of my aid but I still require a noble deed. Through research done by the council they have discovered something called a Hope Stone that exists in the Elemental Planes. Bring me one of these stones and the signet of Grimel. Fear not I shall reward you well.

          I had actually tried it when I got my earring because I had everything done but the hopestone as soon as the platter recipe was discovered and I had MQed my hopestone to a friend for a traveler's manual, the Councilman says something about needing BOTH items and that just one is useless to him(we tried handing in the hopestone first if you're curious).

            For what its worth, the other use of a Hope Stone (the Secrets of the Planes quest) is MQ'able. Not that the final reward there is competative with the earring, but here and there someone gets a yen to finish it, too.

              No personal experience but i've read several times that it can't be MQed. Not that it's really that big a deal the hope stones don't seem to be that rare. If you exp in the ele planes you'll see pleanty of em. Heck I got 2 or 3 of them while farming saps for my tailoring combine =(

                  When the MQ was tried, did you both meet the quest tradeskill requirements though? If not, that could prevent it from being MQ'd like faction I spose.

                    My husband said the same thing. He said I wouldn't have to go through all the bother - he's just do all the parts and MQ it. I LIKE the bother, though. I like the feeling that I am earning it. I just feel so bad the we have seen no Hope Stone for Gruleb. I know they are supposedly seen a lot, but I ONLY exp in the elemental planes and I raid there a lot and in the last 3 months I've seen exactly 4 drop.

                      It IS mq-able but...

                      to MQ it BOTH parties MUST have 220+ in all trade skills _and_ earring #7!

                      I have in fact done this MQ - my shaman no longer needed his old #7 earring. (I had my shaman turn in earring #7 and then the character with a hopestone turned his in, ended up with earring #8... without giving up his earring #7).

                      I also turned in a hopestone by itself and the councilman did NOT give back that hopestone.

                      This leads me to believe that IF you have earring #7 and wish someone to mq with you they CAN... _if_ they also have earring #7 and a hopestone.

                      As you need elemental access to get to earring #7 this is probably a moot point.
