I will have the necklace and orb shortly and will begin to plan to get the pear with some guild help. I have seen several things around the net about where to find icy terrors, including the post by Kardvyne about dropping into the polar bear traps. I have very little experience in Perma and have found it difficult to find a map that shows where these traps are and more details about what's down there. Could someone please direct me where to go to find a detailed map or post some more info?
Thanks,

Update - Just finished the quest.
You can find Kazzel wandering around by the undead ruins in Rathe Mtns. Just stand on top of the hill looking down on the ruins and keep watching, you'll see him.
Darfumpel is in a hut near the Inn, and conned indifferent to me. Had no trouble getting him to talk to me or etch the stone.
Although there are some Icy Terrors down in the pits with the polar bears, it is NOT necessary to go down there. Get a map to Permafrost. Kill Diplomat and the first couple of giants behind him. Do not go past the gate in Diplomat's room. Instead, take the passage to the right. You will see a giant wooly spider. Pull him to your awaiting friends in the king room. If you get poisoned, don't worry, it's weak. Go back down that hall towards the pit traps. Pull the Magus to your friends in the king room. Next, be very careful and follow your map, avoiding the pit traps. Follow the hallways that DO NOT have pit traps and you should find an icy terror. If you hit him and run back the direction you came, you can pull him to king room also. This is much easier than trying to keep a group from falling in the pits. Lev really helps if you can get it. Be careful to hit the terror once and begin to run down a hall with no traps because they will fling you across the room like the TT's in Najena, and if they fling you into a pit trap, you're a goner.
Xenyari runs around the unkempt druid rings. Might take you a few minutes to find her, but keep running around up there, she's there.
When you give the talisman to Xenyari and it kills her, it does NOT aggro any druids, so no worries there.
We had severe overkill on the Monstrous Zombie (who looks like a Giant Skel). I talked to several people who said that they killed him with one well balanced 50+ group. We had 2 full groups of 50-57 and owned him. Be careful that your party does NOT target Kazzel.
If anyone has questions, contact me on CT server.
