Thought I'd ask for some advice. At level 51, I'm still wearing Ro Greaves (Yes..laugh all you want). I've been workin on upgrading everything as of late..but have run myself short of cash. These are better than the Ro greaves, so they'd be a definate upgrade; however, I could spend the time questing this or spend the time raising cash to buy something better, say, Seb Scale or better. I'm a big quest junkie, so doing this quest would have it's benefits beyond the stats on the legs. Just not sure if I should mess with it or just buy something else. Both would take about as much time as the other, I believe. Any advice is appreciated.

TBH, no. You'd do better spending your time making the plat to buy better upgrades. It is very rare that any of these quests are quick and easy to complete as most have a random spawn mob that can take hrs upon hrs to get (this especially applies to Chest pieces) and these are not that much better than Ro Greaves to make the time spent worthwhile. I would also suggest getting on plane raids if you can put in the time, I keep hearing of armour rotting up there, if you're still wearing Ro armour you'd probably get them defaulted to you.
If you do intend on questing these, remember to check the bazaar for items you need, paying 50plat for a Mark is a lot better than spending 5hrs killing Aliens for it.
You know not every pally on the game is 55+ and in an uber guild that can raid the planes! Geez! I think these things are awesome for most lvl's. I'll dang sure be chasin them. I think they're much better than the damn ry'gorr leggins I have on now. After this I gotta get the sword and the breastplate. And give us NON uber pally's a chance too! You were all lvl 1 at one time!
lol true all of us aren't 55+, nor do we all have DW or better armor. now yeah so i have DW armor but i still use my ro armor also. i'm debating if to quest for these or not ATM (Sand of ro greaves of these hmmm). who know but i'll probly quest for all this stuff and use it as CR armor.

These have a goldplated look to them, actually very fashionable.
Fruitful Sunflower drops the Sunflower Fruit, in Scarlet Desert, well to the right of the TS zone, kill all the sunflowers and lightcrawlers till you get the fruitful sunflower.
WIthered Bundle of Wood drops off the Triumphant Sea Turtle in TS. Just go behind the Castle, pull from the water between the elemental island and the SD zone, till the triumphant spawns.
Mark drops in Tenebrous, forgot the mob name, one of the alien guys, I think.
Jewel drops rarely off any random mob in DP, TS, TM, SD, ML

For anyone interested in these I might recommend jarsath leggings (?) from Karnor's castle. They are ac 15 +5 wis/int I believe, and although they might not be too pretty they are I'm sure a lot easier to attain. On most servers I believe these tend to go to one of the most uber characters in the game, Mort.
Greaves are more than common in Hate and Fear .. i mean Valorium ones .. and they have 17 AC ! Its nice when u have the Time to Quest them and nothing better but the STATS are useless after lvl 50 ... better go and find Sebilite ones..
Definately gonna start this quest after I hit 45. Big time upgrade from my stinking silver plaited things. Also, any info on acquiring the items to turn in would be nice. Dont be shy, speak up. =)
all the jewels drop in DSP very easily, i got every single one in 15 hrs of play there, also most af the marks are there but you ogtta kill lots of zelniaks, of the raging to spawn, the other item or 2 im not sure tho.
