[Guide] Comprehensive List of Crafting Quests (Spoily& WiP)

Laurelleth · March 2nd, 2007, 04:50 AM

I've thought myself that there should be some list, somewhere, of the various crafting quests and how to do them, and from what others have been asking on Florendyl's craft chat line, others apparently feel the same. OF course, I log on here tonight to find a list of links to crafting quests that I hadn't seen before...

... but I still figure something like this could be useful. I suppose you can delete it if I'm horribly wrong.

For now, this is going to be very informal, and very... well... not filled out. I don't really want to just rip things off of other peoples' posts or sites without permission, so I'll write up what I can myself, and let other people post in this thread if they're offering something to be edited into this main post. I figure that's the best way to go about it, for me.

It's also going to be even more informal right now because I'm first writing this up as I'm fighting a cold (and I think losing the battle), but hey. If everyone wants a guide, someone's gotta take the first step, right? Right!

I figure I'll break this guide into a few sections. Some for the continental and tier quests (which I know very little about thus far, only what little I've done), and a couple for the other types of crafting quests, broken down into categories for ease of browsing. I hope. Or just because my obsessive mind likes some sort of arbitrary order.

Like I said, a lot of these entries are going to be extremely sporadic at best, because I just decided to do this, and you can't (as far as I know) go back and find info on previous quests you've already completed. So if you want these filled in... chime in! Make with the info!

Oh yeah, the usual warning: be warned that much of this info may be considered spoilers, so keep that in mind before reading further!

Tier Quests

These are the quests that you must complete in order to learn recipes.

The Tier quests take place at level 11, 21, and so on, and allow you to learn more recipes from your trainers. Along with the completion of the quest, you gain a new title. From Novice, you go to Amateur, Apprentice, and upward through the ranks until you reach the top of your profession. Expect your crafting profession to change as you increase in level through each ranks, with the process slowly changing and becoming even more complex.

PLEASE NOTE: the amateur (level 11) quest is NOT the same thing as the specialization quest. These both take place at level 11, but they are two separate things. Many people assume that because they chose their specialization they are now amateur crafters and should have new recipes, only to be sadly disappointed, not to mention confused.

Crafters should be pointed to the location of their particular tier quest by their normal trainers once they reach the level needed. I have however heard multiple people say that they weren't getting a quest like this - I'm not sure if they ever found out why, if it was the same issue, if they made a mistake, or what. This info should help out though, not only for such cases, but also for times when you have a not-very-helpful location in the quest log, along the lines of "go to that one continent, you know, the one with the rivers, and trees and things, and look for your trainer."

Also note: when you are asked to craft an item for these quests, these are not workorders. You must supply your own materials, so be prepared!

Along with unlocking recipes, completing each tier quest gives you (I believe! Please correct me if this is wrong!) 50 continental artisanal faction, as well as some amount of crafting experience.

**********************

Continental Styles

The continental style quests allow you to learn another continent's style (surprise surprise). Each continent's style adds a few specific effects to the armor and weapons crafted in that style, with the effect from each piece growing as a character dons more equipment of that same style. There is also a slightly different look for the different styles when they're worn, for those who care about the aesthetics (which, let's face it, is most of us to some extent).

To learn a continent's style you need to do the style quest. That's not the end of it though: just like on your home continent, you need to complete that continent's tier quest to learn recipes of a given tier while you're in that land, plus you also need at least 100 continental artisanal faction for each tier that you're learning. So to learn novice recipes on Thestra you must complete its quest and have 100 Thestran Artisan faction, then to learn Amateur recipes you would need 200 faction and Thestra's Amateur quest, 300 faction and the quest for Apprentice, and so on.

The style quest starting NPCs are found in the same general location on Thestra and Qalia for each crafting class, with only Kojan splitting them up. After visiting the starting NPC you then need to visit 3 other cities in that continent before returning to the original NPC, along with a few crafted items made from your own materials. Be wary, as most likely at least one city will be KOS to your race, requiring that you grind that city's faction in some way to get in, unless you want to do a lot of careful sneaking around. Since you'll need the artisanal faction for the continent anyhow in order to learn recipes, it's usually best to kill two or more birds with one stone and grind Work Orders in an outpost or two for a while, to raise all kinds of faction that you need.

Along with unlocking the continent's style, each style quest also gives (again, I believe, so correct me if I'm wrong) 50 faction for the continent's artisans, as well as crafting experience.

For a walkthrough on the continental quests themselves and more info on KOS, outposts, and other related topics, visit the continental styles/outposts/etc FAQ on this site, at http://www.vanguardcrafters.com/foru...pic.php?t=1445.

**********************

Recipe Quests

These are the quests needed in order to learn certain recipes, and are broken down by crafting class as well as continent. This is especially skimpy as most of the quests are higher-level and class-related and thus harder for one person to find. Especially when I'm only an Amateur Leatherworker at the moment.

Give it time.. and help out if you can!

Return to the kobold, and in gratitude he teaches you the recipe for his clan's armor. This is a special finishing recipe that allows you to choose between wrist, leg, or chest armor for one or two mangled hide each, giving you a rare product in return.

**********************

Materials Quests

This is a name I've given to quests that all follow the same general pattern: Talk to the NPC to be given a list of things they want, craft or procure them (usually it's one item needed from each of the three main crafting classes), turn them in for a reward. These rewards are often nice pieces of crafting equipment to wear that raise your skills or stats significantly, although they may also be special utilities or tools. Sometimes you may also get items intended to be sold to vendors for cash, along with various faction boosts and possibly even crafting experience.

NOTE: Many people have trouble completing these quests with weapons or armor that aren't from the same continental style that the quest takes place on. For instance, for the Studies of Iallos Quen quest in Leth Nurae, you will probably need a Thestran staff to complete the quest. This may or may not be a bug, we'll see if it changes (or at least gets spelled out in quest logs). Also some people have problems getting even the right items to update in their quest log - relogging, or selling to a merchant and buying them back, or putting them in a bank and taking them out may all work, and get the items to update the quest correctly.

Other Quests

These are the quests that don't quite fall into the other categories. Like Materials Quests they usually give some sort of concrete award in the way of a nice crafting item, but they don't follow the usual pattern of "get these various items made by the different crafter types, turn them in." Sometimes you may be asked to take an item given to you by the NPC and repair it at a crafting station, and other times you might be asked to do something entirely different.

Location: Shaletooth Tower, at the end of a path that runs near Bordinar's Cleft, south of the lake.
Task: Deliver a note to Argus Darkhammer in Bordinar's Cleft
Reward: +10 Bordinar's Cleft Artisan Faction; +10 Bordinar's Cleft Faction; +1000 Crafting Experience; 50 Copper
Notes: The NPC you deliver the note to isn't found in the crafting area - instead go into the first passageway on the right after you enter the main hall of Bordinar's Cleft, and follow it to the room at the end.

***

Quest: Bordinar's Cleft Upkeep
Starting NPC: Argus Darkhammer
Location: Bordinar's Cleft, Easthearth (first passage to the right after entering the main hall)
Prerequisite: Crafting Level 11 (??? Can anyone confirm?)
Task: Repair various areas around Bordinar's Cleft
Reward: Blue Supply Pack (random items); +25 Bordinar's Cleft Artisan Faction; 5000 Crafting Experience; 2 Silver 50 Copper
Notes: This quest asks you to "repair" various points around the Cleft, but in game terms all you need to do is run close to them, and perhaps stand still for a moment. The four areas are: the main gate into the city, the statues outside the king's hall and in the main hall, and the railings near the entrance (underground between the outside area and main hall). If you're pretty sure you're near the right spot, try shifting your location slightly and standing still, and eventually you should see the "repaired" message appear on your screen.

***

Quest: Dye Delivery
Starting NPC: Hagir Silvereye
Location: Bordinar's Cleft
Task: Deliver a box of dye to Malden Frozensword in Bordinar's Cleft
Reward: Adhesive; Fuel; Oil; Water; Crafting Experience (??? amount?); +5 Bordinar's Cleft Artisan Faction; 50 Copper
Notes: The NPC that you deliver the goods to is found in one of the rooms of the Merchant's Hold, inside the "Thunderaxe General Goods."

***

Quest: Dear Sister
Starting NPC: Gregan Blacque
Location: Tursh, Upper Floor of Barley Harvest Inn.
Task: Deliver a case full of crafting supplies to his sister in Bordinar's Cleft crafting area
Reward: Blaque Cleaner; Blaque Oil; Black Artisan's Brew; New Targonor Artisan Faction +3; 3500 Crafting Experience

***

Quest: The Captain's Old Sword
Starting NPC: Osmal Maradin
Location: Rindol Field (if you enter from the east, he's off to your right a ways, uphill and along a path)
Prerequisite: 25 Tursh and Rindol Field Artisan Faction (can anyone confirm?) Artisan Level 12 (confirm?)
Task: Repair the sword given to you (doable by all crafting classes).
Reward:Osmal's Ring (Heroic): lv. 15 left finger, +8 Crafting Tool Use

This quest is suggested and notable because it gives one of the few (thus far) pieces of jewelry useable by crafters, and is the prerequisite for a second such quest. The task is simple: take the sword given to you by Osmal and refurbish it., using your craft's finishing station.

Since most people won't have Rindol Field Artisan Faction going into this quest, you can gain some by performing Work Orders for a few individuals, such as Osmal himself, or Fest in the Tursh Inn. You can also gain more faction by grinding normal Work Orders within the Fisher's Pen outpost, a short trip to the north of Tursh.

Note: I was told that before you get this quest you should talk to Fest in the Tursh Inn to get his Lucky Dice - I don't know if this actually does have anything to do with the quest or not though, or if it's just a red herring. So far, evidence learns toward the red herring suspicion.

Quest: The Fate of Captain Umbertroe
Starting NPC: Osmal Maradin
Location: Rindol Field
Prerequisites: Complete "The Captain's Old Sword," attain Crafter level 15 and 50 Tursh and Rindol Field Artisan Faction
Task: Discover the fate of Captain Kasey Umbertroe.
Reward: Rindol's Field Medal (Legendary): lv. 20 left ear, +13 Finishing Skills, Halfling Hero effect (+5 Problem Solving, +5 Reasoning, +5 Ingenuity, +5 Finesse); Bag of Jewels (??correct name?) (apparently meant only to be sold to vendor); Recipe for Seer's Amulet (gained during quest but not removed from the recipe book.);??faction/experience?

This quest is again good because it gives you one of the few bits of crafting jewelry, in this case probably the first Heroic item most people will be able to obtain. Once you've finished with the lead-in quest and are at least crafting level 15, talk to Osmal again about the much-admired Captain Umbertroe. She's disappeared into parts unknown, and the people of the village (Osmal very much included) want to know of her whereabouts. The only suggestion that Osmal has to give you is that she first left for Renton Keep, and that you might try to pick up her trail there.

Go next to Renton Keep, and speak to Riley McLare, the Utility Vendor within the northeast tower. She gives you the idea of conferring with one of the Vulmane seers to find the halfling's location, and sends you of to Dakhnarg.

Before you go on this leg of the trip, make sure you have a rare item from your crafting class, as you'll need it once you reach the town. The list of required items is (Carpenter and Minerologist required items may currently be switched):

Carpenters: Thorn Timber
Leatherworkers: Scraggy Hide
Minerlalogists: Gneiss
???smiths: Nickel Ore

(obviously, this needs to be filled out. I'm guessing by the fact that Minerologists need timber that it's by class rather than specialization, but can anyone confirm? Ie: Any tailors who had to bring along a Scraggy Hide?)

Once in Dakhnarg, find ??? just past the crafting area and speak with her. She tells you that she can perform the task once you create a Seer's Amulet for her to use, at which point she gives you the recipe. You can craft the item yourself, or use one crafted by another player. Be forewarned that this recipe is difficult: you now need a high quality item (quality A?) to successfully make it, and a bad run of complications could make your rare item go *poof*.

Once you have an amulet speak to the seer, who takes the amulet and performs the ritual needed. She tells you of her vision: she sees Kasey Umbertroe in a land filled with sand and sun, ie: probably Qalia. The quest is complete at this point - you DO NOT have to track the halfling down in Qalia itself, at least not for this quest. (As it seems a bit of a cliffhanger, this may or may not be the end of the chain in the long run, but it is the end of this quest.) Return across Thestra to Osmal to collect your hard-earned reward.

"House" quests

This is a section for the quests in Lomshir (and New Targonor?) that require you to choose a house and perform Work Orders for them, each giving separate rewards. I don't have much info on these yet, and haven't reached that level myself, since they require level 21 (?) Crafting. More info to be added as it's obtained.

**********************

Thanks to:

Siufu for giving most of the info for "The Best Artisan Ever," some other quest names that I'd forgotten, and the first basic info for "The Herbalist's Equipment," "The Ambassador's Repair," and "Legendary Fiend Hunter's Weapon"

danacc for giving the first (and most) info for "Arming the Shaletooth Tower" and "Tursh Supplies," entered verbatim for now, along with miscellaneous other bits.

Meri for filling in a bunch of blanks on various quests, and giving some starting info for apprentice tier as well as house and ship material outfitter quests, entered partly verbatim (some editing for format).

Gargoth for giving various bits of info for many quests, including the first descriptions for the Gregan Blacque quests, "???" (Rindol Field) "Business Partner" and "Bordinar's Cleft Upkeep" to name a few.

Silvermink for giving some info for "Grodek's Hammer," the Lomshir gloves quest and other quests

Beaubier for info on a whole handful of blacksmith tier quests (some of which I paraphrased to keep more in line with the others, sorry!)

Katrin Uzirtak for first info on Experimental Equipment quest and various other quest info.

Wraith for first info on the Felgrand's Inquisition quest

Jaradis for more info on the Lomshir gloves quest and Kojan Apprentice Blacksmith quest (entered partly verbatim)

Ilmoran for Thestran Apprentice Outfitter info

Roses for a good bit of tier quest info

Also: Apelia, Azedi, darury, Iben Lyin, joshmvii, mogwy, Sgt_Pitt, Taipan, and Wyelde for miscellaneous bits of info here and there.

**********************

That's all I have so far, from lack of finding the right quests, and a lack of being high enough level to get some of them. Again, sorry that it's so horribly scattered and sparse at the moment... but I know that a lot of people wanted some resource all in one place like this, and I figure the only way to get it done is to start doing it. Hope it turns out okay! Now if you'll excuse me I'll sneeze my way off to bed....

As a note, added a link, some info for the Arming Hathor Zhi quest, and the Iallos Quen's shirt name that I'd forgotten to note down. Also added a recipe quest section and moved the Gwartak Clan quest there. If anyone's actually interested.

for Kojan and Qualia( and i would assume Thestra though i haven't actually done it) you need to make 5 leather gloves.

For Apprentice Outfitter Quests

Kojan: Speak with Master Outfitter in Tanvu, he will send you to the Jef Bortul (something like that, same guy as Amateur quest). There's no real dialogue with Jef, he simple gives you the recipes you require when you hail him. If I rememebr right you need to make 5 stiff Strappings, then return them to the master outfitter back in Tanvu.

Qualia: Speak with Master Outfitter in one of those hidden cubby hole rooms in the Ahgram. crafting area, he will send you to the Master Outfitter in Kahl to aquire the needed recipes, make 5 stiff strappings and return to the Outfitter in Ahgram.

Note: really all Apprentice quests require you to go to the continents Capital ( Kojan-tanvu, Qualia-Ahrgam, Thestra- New Targonor), speak with the Master<whatever>, who will then send you off to do what needs to be done.

Recipe Quests:

Kojan Sails
NPC: Perun (LVL 21 required)

Actual quest starts with "Practice Firegrass ropes" followed by "practice firegrass riggings" if you have not learned the general ropes and riggings recipes yet.

Qualia Sails

Phew, thanks again. Edited in Meri's info. Also added some formatting to make it easier to read, edited a few small bits I found more info for, and added (most of) the info for the Swordsmith's Apprentice quest as well as its followup.
