  • The SOF Tradeskill Quest!

    Shall we keep notes of our progress with this in one thread?

    *** I will try to keep confirmed information in this top message, but I wont be able to confirm everything myself. My playtime is less that it used to be. Please post info you want added to this (begining of a..) Walkthrough. ***


    Note from Ngreth 3rd Dec 2007.
    The final item has had 5 AC added to both melee and caster version and a slot 3 added. I do not know if it will make the patch, but it is going in (changes already made)
    Also all steps with a clicky have been changed to work when not equipped (they are still class limited)

    Thanks Ngreth!!!!

    To start:

    From the Patch message-

    ***Tradeskills***
    Within one of the newly discovered areas of Faydwer you will be able to find a gnome who wants a measure of revenge.


    Good Luck all.....

    During the quest:
    The Item produced is Melee only usable. If you put it in a JC kit and combine, it switches to the caster version., then combine again to go back to the melee version.
    ***All quest combines and hand-ins are done with the melee version.(Ngreth)***


    Step 1
    Eron Nurwistle at loc p800 n550 in the top of the windmill in Dragonscale Hills.

    Task Name: Not so Simple Jewelry
    Required Jewelcraft skill to obtain: 250 --- Level 74/75?

    Step 1: Loot 12 Dragonscale Ore Fragment (Dragonscale Hills)
    Step 2: purify the draonscale ore [3 ore + 1 gnomish heat source in jewlers kit - triv 100]
    Step 3: give all four pieces of the purified ore to Eron
    Step 4: Speak with Eron after he has had time to inspect it and you have a bag slot available
    ... he stalls for a few mins ...
    Then gives you a bag (jewlers kit) with:
    - a note in it "Eron's Simple Jewelery notes", scribe this
    - a mold "Eron's Configurable Chain and Setting Mold"
    - and your 4 bars back
    Step 5: Create 2 Eron's Configurable Chain using tradeskills [2 bars + mold in jewelers kit, also get a half bar left over - trivial = 400]
    Step 6: Create 2 Eron's Setting using tradeskills [half a bar + mold in jewelers kit - trivial = 250]
    Step 7: Create 2 Eron's Simple Jewelery using tradeskills [combine Chain + setting in jewelers kit - trivial = 100]
    ***Note: This is LORE so hand in the first one before making the second***
    Step 8: Give Eron both of the Simple Jewelery you made.

    Note:
    At this point I may have missed some text from the NPC when completing the tasks for step 1. When I hailed him to get step 2, he started saying the text for step 1 again.
    I just said 'Pottery' to open up the text for step 2.


    Step 2

    Task Name: Clay within the Beast

    When you get Task #2, he gives you a note "Eron's Ceramic Setting Notes". Scribe this.

    Step 1: Loot 14 Twitching Soot (zone: the Mechamatic Guardian)
    Step 2: Loot 2 Blue Gem Grade Faycite (zone: the Mechamatic Guardian)

    Step 4: Create 2 Eron's Unfired Ceramic Setting using tradeskills [recipe: 1 clay + 1 water in wheel - trivial 400]
    Step 5: Create 2 Eron's Ceramic Setting using tradeskills [recipe: 1 setting + 1 HQ sheet in kiln - trivial 50]
    Step 6: Deliver 1 Blue Gem Grade Faycite to Eron
    He gives you back - Clear Gem Grade Faycite
    Step 7: Show the Settings to Eron. Allow him time to inspect them.
    Step 8: Speak with Eron after he has had time to inspect the settings.
    Step 9: Create 1 Eron's Simple Second Setting Jewelry using tradeskills. [Blue Gem Grade Farcite + Clear Gem Grade Faycite + Eron's Simple Jewelry + Eron's Ceramic Setitng triv 250]
    Step 10: Show Eron your progress on the jewelry

    Another recipy I got from someones post:
    [recipe: "Eron's Simply Jewelery" + 1 green faycite + 1 blue faycite - trivial 250]
    Will update when I have run through this task, or someone confirms in the thread.

    Any tips on where and how to find those Agaricus Mushroom - foraged in the hills of shade.

    Both of needed the Dragonscale Hills fish types can be caught right at port in...just take guild hall port to DS, drop straight down against wall, and fish from inside the moat...no mobs path into agro range.

    Both of needed drops in Loping Plains can be found in the pond just SW of zonein from steamfont. Just setup at opposite side of pond from bloodmoon assasin camp and nothing pathed into agro range

The west side of the fort is the scrapyard where the Magnetized Scrap Metal drops. Eron's Tertiary Setting is made in the forge, 1 refined magnetized scrap metal + 1 refined steamwork oil + the mold Eron gives you after the turn-ins.

    The gnome in the top of the windmill above the level 76 spell vendor gave me a task "Not So Simple Jewelry".

    Reward is a fairly weak necklace that is used in tradeskills.

      Name is Eron Nurwistle at loc p800 n550 in the top of the windmill in Dragonscale Hills. This is clearly the NPC mentioned in the notes as he goes through a whole story about his history with Meldrath and wanting revenge and will only give his tasks to an expert jeweler or better.

      I havent finished the first quest to go on but this is clearly our guy.

        Task Name: Not so Simple Jewelry
        Required Jewelcraft skill to obtain: 250 (Expert level, he specifically mentions that it would take a master rank jeweler to do it, but he'd trust his designs to an expert).

        Step 1: Loot 12 Dragonscale Ore Fragment (Dragonscale Hills)

        Seven more steps after this.

        Initial reward:

        I'd been looking forward to this as a cleric. No joy.

          And did the shawl start as the greatest item in the game?

              And Oh. I see the issue.

              Put that jewelry in your jewelry bag by itself and click combine.

                I tried one...barely escaped with my life (75 Bst, 12k hp). So, I guess I'll be finding groups from now on.

                    I've gotten the quest but forgot how to get the recipie for the necklace.Do you get it when you hail Eron after you've gotten the 12 ores? I seem to remember combineing 4 ores at a time in my JC kit which gives you 3 subcombine turn ins.
                    Finished the JC part.You combine 3 ores and a GHS in a JC kit and turn in the 4 items.
                    You are supposted to make and turn in two necklaces but they are lore.So you have to make one and turn it in then make the second one and turn that in also.Eron will give you back one of the necklaces.And then you can get the pottery task.:-)

                      Confirmed, npc wouldn't give me the quest because I didn't have enough experience. Level 73 almost 74 will check back after I ding 74, then 75 to see where the required level is.

                      Do watch for a guardian in Dragonscale. He kicked me half way across the zone doing 10k damage. I had more than 10khp so I survived but not everyone would survive the guardian.

                        I currently have 4/12 ore
                        They dropped from - Kirkoten Miner

                        I also killed Minotaur Miner / Spiritwalker / Furyblade / Warrior / Weaponsmaster, but I didnt get drops from them.

                          I would go with minotaurs if you can handle em. They seemed to drop 3 ores pretty often. I got 3x3 and 1x3. The downside is they are a pita to solo as a melee, xp sucks, and they would only drop ore about every other clearing of the ones on the outside of the mine.

                            I was root DoTing around the pond that was outside of a fort (mine?) looking building.

                            Of my 4 ores, one was a single loot and I also had one set of 3 drop from a mob.

                              Ah...so there are other miners besides the Minotaurs? Whereabouts in the zone are these other types located...and which ones are easier/harder to kill (forget drop rate, I'm just looking for something soloable.)

                              Edit: Oh...and I had a runin with the robot, too...was walking near him going "oooohhh...aaaaahhhh" when I got kicked for 9700. Would have been fine, had another smaller robot not then attacked me for 3 1k hits. :\
