Baelin Xir`Rixoan may be found at -100, +220.

You say, 'Hail, Baelin Xir`Rixoan'

Baelin Xir`Rixoan says 'Pfft mortal what is it that you want? I have nothing to say to those unlike me, I wish to be left alone so please leave me be to my [fortress].'

You say, 'What fortress?'

Baelin Xir`Rixoan says 'I do not know why I am tolerating your council but for some reason I feel you can be of some use to me besides having your skull as a paperweight. I have been trapped in this dwelling for ages and I seek someone that will help me be freed of this [mystical prison].'

You say, 'What mystical prison?'

Baelin Xir`Rixoan says 'There are many unseen shackles that confine me to this room. They were first placed upon me years ago for my cannibalistic tendencies. You see I was the leader of one of the most powerful religious sects of the di`zok. I conducted many [ceremonies] in our place of worship and not many were in approval of the royal di`zok family.'

You say, 'What ceremonies?'

Baelin Xir`Rixoan says 'Many of our sacrifices took place with our most unfortunate captives and there was never one that went before the knife that was a member of the brood but somehow it got out that we were sacrificing one of our own kind and for that I was sentenced to these halls never to be seen again. I do however think that you could help me [escape] if you chose to.'

You say, 'How can I help you escape?'

Baelin Xir`Rixoan says 'I truly do not believe what I am hearing but for some reason I feel that I should trust you. I am going to ask you to return me four pieces of my staff that were lost after I departed the home of the di`zok. I lost many of them fighting to break free from the guards that were ordered to capture me. If you would [return these staff pieces] I can then reconstruct my staff and use it to counteract the barrier surrounding my quarters.'

You say, 'I will return these staff pieces.'

Baelin Xir`Rixoan says 'Very well ______, begin your search now and do not cease until you have found the four pieces. I feel that they must be somewhere in these haunted halls because it was here where my staff broke apart.'

Hand in the pieces.

Baelin Xir`Rixoan says 'These are indeed the pieces that I seek. It is amazing that you were able to obtain these staff pieces and I am very grateful. Unfortunately there is a [problem].'

You gain party experience!!

You receive Baelin's Gem Kit, a LORE 4-slot container.

You say, 'What problem?'

Baelin Xir`Rixoan says 'There are some gems missing from these pieces, they were magically infused into the oak and I do not know how they disappeared but I cannot conduct my magics with my staff being incomplete. If you [wish to help] me further then I will need you to obtain them.'

You say, 'I wish to help.'

Baelin Xir`Rixoan says 'You have come this far now ______, I certainly hope you will not let me down. Please seek out my 4 gems in these cursed halls. When you have gathered the 4 glimmering gems combine them in my gem kit and return the result of your work to me.'

Four versions of "A Glimmering Gem" drop randomly in the zone. Combine them in Baelin's Gem Kit to create Baelin's Enchanted Gem. Give this to Baelin.

Baelin Xir`Rixoan says, "I cannot believe that you would go to such great lengths to help me. I hope you can see just how dark and evil the di`Zok are now. If you should choose to take the side of the inhabitants here I would suggest slaying any and every single di'Zok clansman in existence. Now begone I have much work to do."

After the final turn-in of the gem the dialogue is:

Baelin Xir`Rixoan says, "I cannot believe that you would go to such great lengths to help me. I hope you can see just how dark and evil the di`Zok are now. If you should choose to take the side of the inhabitants here I would suggest slaying any and every single di1Zok clansman in existence. Now begone I have much work to do."

There were no faction hits for the final turn-in.

a domesticated chokidai (spent the whole day in there and only got the drop when I killed these guys, which I had been avoiding).
Mob drop

Actually, the ranged reward is also a mob drop off another named in same zone (Vxed) - had 3 words in its name, can't recall atm...

So save yoruself the crappy trouble and go for the named instead if you really need that ranged thing.

Both this and Baelin's Gem Kit have been reported as dropping in Vxed and Tipt. The best guess is that this is because of some typos during GoD itemization. Make sure to /bug this, as it should only be found in Chardok B.

gem drops

I was in a very fast paced group here on Bristlebane last night, and 3 of us were able to complete the quest. I can verify that number 1 does drop, although the gems drop off of random mobs and in very random order. Took some of us quite a few tried to get the last gem though.

while hunting for the components of this quest i found it best to stick outside of the castle for the staves of suffering and inside the house for the glimmering gems.

Update...

...Is needed here. This pocket dungeon isn't going to be here forever, so we need to know if the damn thing is going to be fixed. Let's hope the 6th Aug patch does the business...
gem bag
# Jul 27 2003 at 2:47 PM Rating: Decent
gem bag is a container with a combine button. I have guessed it needs to be cominbed before a turn in. It will not combine with 3 gems only, I have tried that.
buggy
# Jul 25 2003 at 10:01 AM Rating: Decent
I've spent many an hour in ChardokB, collected enough for a whole group of gems. There are four staffs followed by four gems you need to get. All staffs drop, turn them in for a jewel bag, and all jewels (2,3 and 4 when identified) drop. However, no number ones ever. I have collaborated with the others that frequent the zone and #1 is never to be found. So I have to assume that it's a buggy quest, or that there is some trick. We've tried everything I could think of though. On a side note, the "sword" quest where you have to get four parts to a sword is also bugged. The left hilt, dulled blade and runed blade all drop, but never a right hilt. I have both my characters I duo every piece to the quests but jewel #1 and right hilt. Grrr bark bark Grrr yourself EQ!

I have spent alot of time in the zone and have been all throughout it and have yet to find gem #1 or the right hilt. I hope they fix this soon so that we can finish the quest.
1st gem

Any updates on the status of this quest? Still broken or bugged?

last gem
# Jul 17 2003 at 11:51 AM Rating: Decent
i have been told last gem has dropped but i can't confirm either way at the moment also is it me or is something wrong with the halls of betrayal link on the site here?

ok we got confirmation that both gem and right sword hilt are missing from game at the moment from 2 full GMs they said they are working on it.

Problems...
# Jul 15 2003 at 1:39 PM Rating: Default
I agree, there seems to be a bug with one of the Gems... joined a fast-paced XP and loot group a day ago without any Gems. The guys already in it said I would have to wait my turn on the Gems, as they had three peeps already waiting for just one. Needless to say, after an hour or two, I was *also* on three Gems, waiting for the *same* last one to drop... :(
missing gem
