You will need to obtain the Di'Zok Signet of Service before proceeding with this quest.

Talk to a goblin traitor (2-3 hour spawn) in the Frontier Mountains (location -1900, 2000).

WARNING: Do not kill "an angry goblin", as found when clearing the room to reach "a goblin traitor". "an angry goblin" is required near the end of this quest.


You say, 'Hail, a goblin traitor'

a goblin traitor says 'Serve the Sarnak do ya? You the one they say they send? I don't know that I believe ya, show a token. Humm show me ya ring if ya got it. '

Give a goblin traitor your Di`Zok Signet of Service. He hands it right back to you.

a goblin traitor looks relieved when he sees your signet of service and eyes you with a bit more respect. 'Good! They tell'd me to wait here for ya, can't say I like it but here I sits. Itbe good to be rid of Skargus though, so I be a happy one, oh yes. Want to know the [plan] then?'

You say, 'What's the plan?'

a goblin traitor says 'Alrighty, listen listen. Skargus used to be a low rankin' nogood. He made fake story 'bout Gragbar who was the warlord and caused him much trouble with the chief. Gragbar was cast down, chief made Skargus the warlord now. Gragbar is very angry, would take back his position and kill Skargus if he get [evidence] of his treachery. '

You say, 'What evidence?'

a goblin traitor makes a terrible face, then spits on the ground before continuing. ''Gragbar are workin' with the Iksar, bleh Iksar. He sellin' goblin troopsas slaves to Cabilis when he can, sayin' they died in battle at the lake. If we get evidence of that, we get Skargus and kill him. You go to Frontier mountains, find Sarnak there, he knows where we get evidence from. Give him this note from me, and he help ya. Off with ya now, before I get seen with ya.'

He gives you a Traitor's Note. (He is on Di'Zok faction so he is a good way to test your faction standing.)

Take this note to a sarnak spy in Frontier Mountains at 1880, 3600.

a sarnak spy reads the note slowly, turning it around in his claws a few times before completing it. ''I see you spoke with that half-wit goblin! I hate hate hate it when he sends me a note, his penmanship is almost illegible. I hope he informed you of the situation, he's really not the most dependable agent of Di'zok, and sadly his note doesn't really make much sense. No matter though, are you ready to [proceed] in this mission?''

You say, 'I am ready to proceed'

a sarnak spy says 'Good, here then is what you must do. It's pretty simple actually and even one such as you should have no troubles. Skargus has been trading in slaves with the Iksar. He has a courier there, visits the outskirts of Cabilis and sends weekly reports back to Droga. If we could get that report, Skargus would be finished. Will you go to Cabilis and [get the report]? '

You say, 'I will get the report'

a sarnak spy scowls at you, clearly unimpressed by your efforts.''Of course you'll go get the report fool, but do you think that the courier will just give it to you?'' The sarnak shakes his head sadly. ''Okay, look. Go into Droga and try to get a warlord's insignia off one of the goblins in there. Take this forged note to the courier I've written out, along with the insignia to Warslik's woods and give it to the courier. With luck, he'll believe you work for Skargus and give you the report. If you get the report, find Gragbar and give it to him .''

He gives you a Forged Note to Courier.

Take this forged note to a shady goblin (24 hour spawn) in Warsiliks Wood near Cabilis at -1650, -1135 on the 2nd floor, along with a Drogan Warlord's Insignia (random drop in Mines of Nurga and Temple of Droga).

You say, 'Hail, a shady goblin'

a shady goblin says 'If yer not my contact ya best be movin' on. Got no time to waste on ya. '

You say, 'I am your contact'

a shady goblin says 'Are ya? Hum, let me see yer insignia then, and the note Skargus gave ya. '

Give a shady goblin the Forged Note to Courier and a Drogan Warlord's Insignia.

a shady goblin gapes at the note in puzzlement, obviously a bit concerned by it. The courier looks at the note for more than a minute, then looks at you, and back at the note. ''Errm.. welp, dunno what to make of the note. If I know the right of it, Skargus finally got him some girly to do his writin' for him.

Ooooh I bet she a tasty one, graarr. If I was warlord I know I'd have me a girly too. Gah, take this report and get outta my sight.

He despawns and gives you the Report to Skargus.

Take this report to an angry goblin (3 day spawn with a 10% variance) in Frontier Mountains (location -1900, 2000).

You say, 'Hail, an angry goblin'

an angry goblin 'Go away, my life is miserable enough!'' The angry goblin looks at you more closely, his rage fading for a moment. ''Are you here with the evidence I was promised? Give it to me if you have it!!'

an angry goblin howls in triumph! 'This is just what I needed! Skargus is mine now, wait until he finds out, just wait! His death is close at hand. Follow me and I'll take you to Skargus's chamber, you can wait there while I take this report to the chief!'

an angry goblin shouts 'I have you now Skargus, you traitor! Even now I'm taking this report of slave-trading to the chief! Your days here are at an end!'

Warlord Skargus says 'I've gotta stop Gragbar before he turns in that report!'

This spawns Warlord Skargus (level 56 SK with a 1k Harm Touch). Kill Skargus and loot the Head of Skargus.

Take the Di'zok Signet of Service and the Head of Skargus back to Herald Telcha in Chardok.

Herald Telcha says 'Ah hah! You are notworthy indeed amongst the servants of the Sarnak! Perhaps I should have you killed, before your deeds outdo mine.. Hmm.. Guards! Guards! Haha, do not panic menial being, in fact I am most impressed with your service. Here is the ring I promised you in exchange for your efforts.'

You receive Regal Band of Bathezid. The effect on the ring, Aegis of Bathezid, is a 25dmg Damage Shield, and lasts 25 minutes.

The ring comes with 5 charges and is rechargable by giving it back to Herald Telcha as long as you keep your faction at ally.

#REDACTED, Posted: Jan 28 2003 at 2:20 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Killed him today was very easy had a chanter with me but he didnt do much but say wow you have nice damage hehe ok so he runed me to eat HT and slowed and prolly nuked. Fight lasted maybe 2-4min and after Paragon of spirit me and pet finished with 100% hps and basically full mana just did 2 dots and a nuke I melee'd all fight so pet never got touched heh. Now to decide whether getting the cords is worth effort I am leaning towards no right now as up to this point I basically solo'd but next steps require much more time and support, so I will just get my 8th coldain ring to add to this ring and my tunic with Bramblecoat for a 36dmg shield basically infinate charges (easy to recharge 3 zones from OT stone) great for solo'n and fun in duels.

All of the mobs except the angry goblin were up at the same time yesterday, lucked out and he was up this morning. Took down Skargus with a group of 4. Rune ate the HT and we finished him off fast. Word to the wise, Skargus isnt below the angry goblin, he is ABOVE. Dont clear the rooms below him to the chief, just clear the one room with the big table before him. He turns around and walks up the tunnel and turns left into a cave and despawns. Skargus spawns in that cave. Skargus hit like a wimp once epic slow landed and didnt cast anything.

Hiya, could a lvl 65 SK solo Warlord Skargus?

Will he resist unholy harm touch?

might be better to ht him normal and use leech disc to heal myself? how much hp does this guy have? does he hit fast and how hard?

Do i neeed a shammy with me? :/

Dont have so many aa points, but i guess I could go get aego so I get 5500 hp or so.. that should be fine right?

Shady

Got Shady about 30 minutes ago after the servers came back up. :) Lucky me, after being beaten to it yesteday by about 2 minutes. Apparently either they fixed him or everyone will just need to be ready to grab him once the servers come up. ;)
Shady Goblin
# Jun 26 2002 at 10:31 PM Rating: Decent
I have been camping the Shady Goblin Warslik Woods on the bristlebane Server for nearly 44 hours now and he has yet to show.

The GMs I have spoken to assure me that everything is "working as intended" (yeah right) and that the shady goblin spawn is NOT broken. Also, they would not tell me when he was last spawned (they claimed they have no way of knowing this) nor would they tell me when he was next due. When I asked a GM to please spawn him for me even if he just spawned him and subsequently kill him just so I'd have a time reference in mind, they claimed they had no way of doing this either (which you and I know that is pure BS).

I have heard rumours that the shady goblin is also a 3 day spawn. I guess we'll soon find out. If (no...let's be positive here...WHEN) he spawns, I will make sure to post the number of hours I camped him.

Shady Goblin is not broken, he is however not on the ground. He is on the second floor of the building. The quest is not broken, at least not at this point. I have yet to see the angry goblin in Droga myself...

Well, I'd been reading posts here as I was about to camp for the gobby myself. After 24 hours I petitioned, asking that if the quest was broken, please tell me so I wouldn't waste my time.

The GM disappeared for a while, then came back saying he "didn't see the Shady Goblin either." He recommended that I discontinue the quest, then check again after the next patch.

I too have been trying to camp this mob on VZ. I spoke to a guide and they tell me it's not broken... They, however, did not tell me the timer on which he spawns. It is larger than 24 hours now...

Shady Goblin Missing

The shady goblin has been missing since the June 5th Patch. It makes little difference, since the Skargus encounter in Droga was broken when I tried it that day. Let's hope the June 12th patch fixes this.
Shady Goblin

With the help of a couple of friends taking shifts, we are currently at 30.5 hours of camping the Shady Goblin (plus whatever time he was down when we started, unlikely we arrived one minute after he last depopped), and he still has yet to pop. 24 hours is off. By how much, I don't know yet =(
#REDACTED, Posted: May 25 2002 at 7:13 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Now that this is all out where everyone can find it, everyone and their pet is gonna be competing for camps in Droga to work on this quest. Shhhhh I liked it better when no one knew about it.
