Deathfist Slashed Belts, Good Version  

Well I found Cain. He is now in EAST Freeport below the new arena. His location is +663 -676.

Here is all of the dialogue for the quest:


You say, 'Hail, Cain Darkmoore'

Cain Darkmoore says 'Hail, Zatx! We are the Steel Warriors of Freeport. Our training disciplines have created some of the finest warriors ever to walk upon Norrath. Perhaps the bards shall sing songs of you one day. Let your first mission be the extermination of [Clan Deathfist].'

You say, 'what Clan Deathfist?'

Cain Darkmoore says 'The orcs of the Commonlands call themselves Clan Deathfist. They have committed many vile acts upon the residents of the Commonlands as well as persons traveling to and from Freeport. They must be destroyed. Go forth to slay them. I shall pay a bounty for every two Deathfist belts. If you are a true warrior of the bunker, perhaps you can begin with [the green and blue].'

You say, 'what is the green and blue?'

Cain Darkmoore says 'The green and blue was a test for all skilled warriors. But we have no more bunker battle blades to spare, and I can not offer you the green and the blue. We must prepare for war!!'

Cain Darkmoore says 'I must have two Deathfist belts.'

Hand him 2 Deathfist Slashed Belts

Cain Darkmoore says 'Very fine work, Zatx. With your help, we shall soon rid the commonlands of the orcs. Then we can move on to a [bigger problem].'

Your faction standing with Steel Warriors got better.
Your faction standing with Guards of Qeynos got better.
Your faction standing with Corrupt Qeynos Guards got worse.
Your faction standing with The Freeport Militia got worse.
Your faction standing with Knights of Truth got better.
You gain experience!!
You receive 6 gold from Cain Darkmoore.

Since the revamp of the Freeport zones it seems that Cain is missing. The Warrior Guildmaster is now a female and will not take the belts.

I've tried using my Ranger track, but can't seem to locate Cain anywhere.

I guess this very old school quest has been killed.

I'll keep looking in the other Freeports hoping to stumble across him.

Question,
I am a 53 Necro and am KOS in Halas to the guards. almost ally to the merchants but need guard faction to get in city freely. Dont need ally faction just not KOS faction. Anyone know how many belts this will take and if there is a better easier quest??? The guards in Halas are Steel War faction

This may sound odd... but I watched my friend do it- he turned in 4 belts at lvl44 and got 1% exp- which means that at higher levels if you collect enough belts or buy enough belts you can have nearly risk free leveling- 400+ belts per level- and if you're a caster like he was- if you get so KOS you can't get out of the city you can just gate out.

WTB DFbelts 1pp per! :D

I went in tryed to do quest and got smacked
I was invs and when i went to hand them in invs droped and he proceeded to kick my butt.
I am trying to fix my fp factions but atm everyone in fp hates me cus i ve been a bad necro in the past ... any sugguestions

I have a bundle of characters in ec. I was wondering is there more exp. for the evil version than the good. I need a answer soon.

On the third floor of the castle, Toresian Fhabel is waiting for someone to take an inert potion down to Vials of Vitality, on the first floor of the castle, and give it to Slansin. There are two people who you can give the potion to. Some times the correct person (with a single name, not a surname) 'spawns' in the shop and if you hand the bottle to him, you gain with several Erudin Factions. Usually (it may now be always) if you run this quest then "A Gate Bandit", [now also named Slansin?] will spawn in place of the person you are supposed to give the bottle to. If you hand the bottle to the bandit, the following factions go up: Coalition of Trade Folk Ill, Coalition of Tradefolk, Carson McCabe, Corrupt Qeynos Guards and The Freeport Militia. The best part of these faction changes is that it raises lots of hard to raise factions without lowering any others. You can do this over and over again to improve all these factions at once. This bandit is about L10 or 11, and it is possible that killing him starts a new quest by talking to one of the NPC's in the shop. Also, the bandit tells you that a friend will avenge his death [of course that is standard language], and if you take the boat to Qeynos after doing the quest, a guard will sometimes attack you when you get off. I don't know what happens if you defeat the guard.

Another way to offset this quest's negative faction is to do the quests for Janam, Rebby and the Falia Frikniller. I did all three about ten times, since they all start within 50 feet of one another, and moved my faction with merchants to aimiable, and moved from dubious to indifferent with the militia. They easiest way to find all three is to go to the docks in West Freeport. The one further back has two tiers, with a barbarian fishing on the lower one. Behind him is a door, that takes you into a wharehouse. Below the wooden platform, there is a secret wall, that takes you down to the Freeport underground. All three of the quest originators, the DE Nestral (sp?, who is behind a door,) Harkin and Gren Frickniller, are within 50 feet or so of one another. I found doing all three quests had a quick effect on my faction, without damaging any of the good ones.

My monk is 14 and I'm gonna need to be able to train to get double attack at 15. Is there a way to sneak up to a trainer and throw a point in before you're beaten to a pulp? Also, about this quest, how do I get close enough to the guards (short of having a group member do it) to turn them in when I'm "threateningly?" Please let me know by posting something or find me online.

I've read through the posts on both the evil and good versions of this quest, and it has to be the most confusing topic ever posted.

Simply:
1) I wish to be able to bank in Freeport (North) with my DE Cleric.
2) I would like to get there through WFP without having to take tunnels to NFP (thus need to not be KoS to guards at gate)
3) I would even like to have an occasional merchant sell to/buy from me
4) In doing all this, I don't want to screw up my faction in my hometown of Neriak

Sounds like killing Orcs in EC raising faction w/Paladins in NFP. Ok, I get that. I need good faction with them for the NFP part of this i.e. banking. Right?

What I don't understand is why would I want to raise faction w/Freeport militia? Why wouldn't I want to raise "good" faction wigh Guards of Qenos instead? Should I turn in belts to Militia, or Warrior guild to accomplish my goals?

thanks,

I've been hunting camps one and two for some time know and the only orcs I've seen drop belts are centurions. Try turning in the belts two at a time. You will get more exp doing that then turning in a hole bunch. Give him two, hit trade, get your faction/exp, repeat!

just use the secrate enterance to fp and forget about malitia faction. its located at the corner of the wall in the nubie area of east FP

I don't think it's worth the exp. Just sell them for 3pp each.

Im a troll :) And would like to be able to use freeport bank for obvious reasons. But Im KOS to the guards, and wondered how do I turn in my 28 DF-belts?? Is wolfform the only way to get into freeport without getting slaughtered? Or can you raise faction another way?

i am apprehensive to the steel warriors can I still do this quest.I am trying to do bunker battle blade quest but faction isnt high enough.

I did this as a lvl 8 warrior, and each one gave me a half a bubble of exp. well worth it.
