Blessed Coldain Prayer Shawl

[Zolina]

I destroyed mine after I was told many times that it would never be upgraded, now it seems it may be enhanced as part of Underfoot. Can I petition to have it restored, or do I need to redo the quests?

[Sharrien]

I've had good luck retreiving mistakenly deleted or tributed items that I wanted back. Go ahead and petition, the worst they can say is no if the logs don't go back far enough to support your request.

Make sure you spell out the full item name in the petition. If you said "8th Shawl" the CS folks probably would search for that and not find anything.

Also if you have a general timeframe from when you may have destroyed it I am told that is helpful to the Guides in locating if you truely possessed the item. Sadly there were limited character flags at the time and nothing to say you had completed the shawl quests besides physically possessing the item.

Got my Silk shawl back the other day after deleting it over 5 years ago so sure you can just petition and get it restored

I also petitioned and got my shawl back no problem. I didn't have a clue as to when I destroyed it, and my not knowing was irrelevant. In the petition I included the full item name, and simply asked to have the item reimbursed.

The next day a GM replied that records indicated I had deleted the shawl, while in PoK, on a particular date back in 2005. The shawl was placed into my inventory while I was offline. Done deal.

It is good to know that the GMs will still help with reimbursements.

On the other hand, if you did the quest before and are level 80+, it would probably take less time to redo all 8 steps of the shawl quest than it did to do the first stage or two of the SoF tradeskill quest. While farming supplies for the 3rd, 5th and 8th stages will take a few hours, the real time-sink for this quest was getting the needed tradeskills.

hmmph. just for "fun" i decided to take my cleric out and re-do this task ( rather than petition for reimbursement). I still had the thordens seal but not the shawl in my bank. go figure that one out.
anyways... the toes and heads for 1 and 2 were a snap. the baking in task 3 was a bit of a pain - 4 griffon eggs still take 2 hours to get. plus the running around for the meats. task 4 was pretty fast too. call it an hour total. but then we hit the blocks
task 5 required 75 drops from velks lab. at 12- 18 per clearing it took over 2 hours to get those. and the glowing biles took another 4 hours.
task 6 was sirens hairs ( do not go to SG - they didnt drop for me in 2 hours. so it took me 20 mins to get both in cobalt scar after that mess), drakkel wolf whiskers ( another hour) and a few other things - total time was more than needed if i had correct info, but still took a few hours
task 7 if you planned this part from the start, you already have everything you need except the fish. 1 hour for 3 lousy fish. total time spent was only 2 hours on this part.
task 8 will take 2-4 hours in the geonid caves. yes even if you can round them all up and kill them at same time. spawn rates, required spawns, proper number of gems. and you need 8 velium hour furs minimum which took me another 3 hours. they seem quite rare drop. surely you planned ahead and saved all the velium from farming velks lab? well, I did so had all I needed. combines, spawn dain, get to iceclad, easy solo job to make the walk to pirates and done.
took me a few hours every day for a week. no simple bang-bang thing and twice during it I almost gave up and petitioned ( farming the glowing biles and the geonids). None of it very difficult - just a time consuming omg when is this going to be over task. like everything else we do -)
Enjoy!
