This quest is for evil casters and is offered by Marv Orilis in East Freeport.

You say, 'Hail, Marv Orilis'

Marv Orilis says 'Yes? I am a very busy man. I assist new necromancers, wizards, magicians, and enchanters that have joined the Dismal Rage. Are you a sorcerer that has [recently joined] us?

You say, 'I recently joined'

Marv Orilis says 'Then I welcome you to the path of rage. We sorcerers fulfill a crucial role within the Dismal Rage. Under the guidance of Opal Darkbriar, a founder of our order, we study the darkest aspects of the various sorcerous arts so that we may aid and bring power to others who follow our patron deity, Innoruuk, the Prince of Hate. If you desire I will help you obtain a suit of [protective clothing] suitable for a practitioner of the sorcerous arts. Once you have been properly outfitted, return to me and I will aid you in obtaining a [Staff of Dismal Rage].'

You say, 'What Staff of Dismal Rage?'

Marv Orilis says 'The Dismal Rage has many enemies still here in Freeport that would uncover us and see us destroyed. Lately a wizard of the Arcane Scientists, Yovik Splegle, has been asking questions about Opal Darkbriar. Find this inquisitive wizard and silence him for good. When you have completed the task return to me with the wizards head.'

Bring Yovik Splegle's Head and get a Rough Hewn Staff in return. Bring that staff, a giant rattlesnake skin and a giant leaf scarab eye back for your Staff of Dismal Rage.

Marv Orilis chuckles to himself, 'Poor, poor Yovik Splegle. Haha! Excellent work, _______. Quickly, fetch me a giant rattlesnake skin and a giant leaf scarab eye along with your Rough Hewn Dismal Staff and I will construct you the Staff of Dismal Rage before your very eyes.

Your faction standing with Dismal Rage has been adjusted by 10.
Your faction standing with Knights of Truth has been adjusted by -1.
Your faction standing with Opal Dark Briar has been adjusted by 2.

At level 24, Yovik and his minions all conned grey to me. I sent my pet in to attack Yovik and ONE of the minions aggro'd me but was not doing any appreciable damage. After my pet killed Yovik, it auto assited against minions and killed all three.....after followign them (they run when their health goes below 50%). The onlypart I don't liek is that you lose faction standing with the "good guys" and gain with the "bad guys" but....heh....as a necromancer, I did not have that great of faction with "good guys" anyways. ;)

Very much worth the lil bit of time ittakes to jump through Marv Orilis' hoops for the Dismal Rage Staff. :)

Appropriate race above is all. For anyone wanting to equip the reward, that would be any race (as long as its human).

Tried the standard darkness-pet-dot attack at lvl 18 and was wiped out. Yovik roots you, burns you, and his tanks interrupt you. (They were light blue to me).

Went back at lvl 20 (now green to me). This time I used Fear first. Suprisingly, the other mobs didn't aggro. This allowed me to fear then kill them one at a time.

Yovik dropped a Warped Great Staff that sold for nearly 5pp in addition to his head.

Both Yovik AND his 3 minders were all Dark Blue to me at lvl 15. I tried to take them with another lvl 15 (Chanter) and failed horribly!

unfortunately, turning in the head does not get you the staff....he then gives you a rough hewn staff with no stats and asks you to turn in that, a giant rattlesnake skin, and a giant leaf scarab eye

ill post again after (if) i get those

Yovik wasnt hard at all with a lvl 54 bard (duh) but he was HITTING the bard with nukes in the 60-90 range so id say the minimum lvl is a bit higher than 5....

hope this helps

EDIT:

I completed this quest and it sucks....
2HB first of all....
7/37 +2 int and 11 WT.....

Once again the humans get screwed =P....Dark elves get a cool book, we get a weapon nobody would use by the lvl they could actually get it (15 or so)

I would agree, this weapon sucks, our nice book has a lot of more stats than just INT +2.
But i disagree that noone is using a 2HB weapon at level 15. Currently i am level 29 and still melee'ing a lot, i train all my weapon skills, 1HB, 2HB and piercing until it is maxxed!
It helps to take down the MoB faster and it will safe my pet from dying :)

In West freeport, in the sewers take the normal route to where the NFP zone is but instead keep going straight instead instead of turning left keep going straight the problem is there is about 3 people around him all against dismal rage, they are KOS and green to me at 44 but non the less could be dangerous to your level if you are below level 10
