Snokin Breaksteel is located on the ship at +95, +275.
You say, 'Hail, Snokin Breaksteel' Snokin Breaksteel says 'Hello, Snokin can help you with da smith stuff. Can you [help] Snokin? Snokin too busy, need more time at forge with new ore, less time doing silly work for Wayfarers.' You say, 'I can help.' Snokin Breaksteel smiles broadly. 'You is nice person! Da Wayfarers wants Snokin to make lots of silly things for dem, but Snokin want to make stuff with [new ore], not old steel. Can you do some [silly work] for Snokin?' You say, 'What new ore?' Snokin Breaksteel says 'It is strange ore, Snokin never see anything like it. It very easy to work with, if you knows the way. It also make very strong steel. Dey say dat it get dat way when something big, like explosion or something magic, make all da metal line up. So dey call it aligned ore,' Snokin says the words, clearly unsure of what they mean. 'It make great steel! Very strong and make good, sharp edges if you hammer on it right way. Snokin know how to make steel from new ore. If you find any ore, bring to Snokin and Snokin give you new steel.' You say, 'I can do some silly work.' Snokin Breaksteel says 'Tank you! If you make stuff for Snokin, Snokin can work more on new ore. You work as hard as Snokin, den Snokin give you good reward. Snokin knows people work good for good reward. Take dis stuff and make studs so Snokin no have to. Just go to forge and put stuff in. One of each is good. When you have da studs, bring to Snokin. When you do enough work, Snokin will show you da secret for makin da new ore into da new steel.' You receive 20 x Vial of Abysmal Sea Water, 20 x Metal Scraps, 20 x Simple Iron File. Combine 1 of each in the nearby forge. You also receive the book Makin Nice Stuff. You have learned the recipe Simple Stud! Simple Stud trivials at 31. After making them all, hand them to him unstacked, up to four at a time. Keep going back and saying "What silly work?" and he will give you more until he is satisfied (need to hand in approximately 100). Snokin Breaksteel smiles at you, showing very crooked teeth. 'Good! Snokin needs some rings for da Wayfarers. If you could make dem. Snokin be happy. Take dis stuff and go over to da forge and make rings. Bring da rings to Snokin.' This time he hands you 20 x Simple Iron File, 20 x Simple Ring Mold, and 20 x Metal Scraps. As before, combine 1 of each in a forge. You have learned the recipe Simple Ring! Simple Ring trivials at 38. After making them hand them to him unstacked, up to four at a time. Keep going back and saying "What silly work?" and he will give you more until he is satisfied (need to hand in approximately 100). Snokin Breaksteel says 'Snokin not tink you as bad as dey say. Snokin need chisels and you can make dem. Take dis stuff to da forge, put one of each of dem in and make da chisel. Bring da chisel to Snokin fast, da Wayfarers needs dem.' This time he hands you 20 x Simple Chisel Mold and 20 x Metal Scraps. Again, combine 1 of each in a forge. You have learned the recipe Simple Chisel! Simple Chisel trivials at 46. After making them hand them to him unstacked, up to four at a time. Keep going back and saying "What silly work?" and he will give you more until he is satisfied (need to hand in approximately 100). Snokin Breaksteel says 'Good! More stuff for you to do for Snokin. Snokin like you. Make files and bring Snokin soon. Take dis stuff and put into forge to make files. Go now, work hard for reward, not stand and look at Snokin.' This time he hands you 20 x Flask of Abysmal Sea Water, 20 x Simple File Mold, and 20 x Metal Scraps. Again, combine 1 of each in a forge. You have learned the recipe Simple File! Simple File trivials at 54. After making them hand them to him unstacked, up to four at a time. Keep going back and saying "What silly work?" and he will give you more until he is satisfied (need to hand in approximately 100). Snokin Breaksteel says 'No more work now. Snokin happy wit what you do already. Snokin show you secret now. You not tell anyone!' Snokin looks around furtively, as if everyone on the ship doesn't hear everything he says. He hands you a piece of paper with some very precise writing on it. You can only guess that he did not write it. You look it over and you understand the methods for smelting the aligned ore and the shimmering aligned ore. It's not a complicated process, but you would have needed information that only that Wayfarers have to uncover it. Now all you need to do is place the ore into a forge and you will be able to make the steel. However, you are certain that you can improve the process if you work with the ore long enough. Snokin takes the paper back and pulls out a ledger. You see him carefully note your name on the ledger with clear and concise penmanship that matches that on the paper you just read. You can now make (and learn) the Bar of Aligned Steel and Bar of Shimmering Steel recipes. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Don't waste your time, as soon as you hit 31 in blacksmithing, move on.
I'm a level 18 Paladin and stuck on 17 smithing. Did they put the TS spike in the wrong place??
Just wanted to warn you ... It was my intention to complete the Abysmal Sea newbie tradeskill quests one a nite before going to bed. Looks like I'll be here ALL nite.
I'll let you know when its fixed.

WTF was anthalia talking about with the 700pp/hour fishing hole? I'll fish! I'll fish forever!
Ppppplease?
BUT that was all taken away at about the 3rd GoD patch. The fish seem to sell for 4cp regardless of the weight and you no longer get essence of troll for the key.

When the going gets tough, the Dwarves say "Where?"
ooh so very frustraded
Also, I have absolutely no problem using the taelosian stones to make serrated arrowheads, which I use to make serrated tip arrows. Again I did NOT do the fletching "quest". It seems to me that the only purpose of these quests is to get a free skill up to 51. They don't unlock a single thing.
I personally think that they are good because after getting the raw material you dont have to go back to abysmal to "refine" them You can go back to PoK and do it there. So you actually do unlock something. You unlock the ability to use the materials.

Now, unless I can guarntee a return of more than 2 when I refine an item, I will always do a turn in to get my guarnteed 2 refined items back. So far, It's random, 1-3, when I refine the wheat. Since there is no use for wheat, I refine it myself. Who cares if I lose any?!
So, again, I have to say these quest are useless outside of free skill ups.

It costs under 500pp to get smithing past this point the old way... that's farming 50 silks and selling em in the bazaar. Trivial...
RELAX!

Ordin Wheasly has the baking one.
Imildu Woodstreak has the Fletching.
Glirina Morningbloom has Jewelry.
Tonlyei Lyhin has Tailoring.
Was searching them on my ogre ber so I didn't look for research, alchemy, poison or tinkering.

--Rant on-- So in the next expansion everyone who buys it can get a personal trainer and practice hand to hand all day long to get their skills up without any risk? Oh and it should work for every combat skill. Oh and you can get all you spell skills up too, and the room has a mana/stam regen effect so you can just chain cast, and punch up to max skill. Oh and it should have a special bonus to the random skillup mod so it only takes half an hour to max a skill. Oh and you can pay 1k plat for every level you want to skip, the trainer will just take your money and level you up. 1k per level... got a spare 65k? hmm I wonder how much they'd sell me an AA for? --rant off--
Ok, sorry folks, just OMG I can't wait till next expansion in 2 months to see if I'm right. Heck we got buff vendors, free tradeskills, 700p and hour fishing holes, and casinos in this last one. ~sigh~
Why can't people just be happy with change, even if it doesn't directly benefit them? If the world was run by people like you, we'd still be in the stone age, or definitely at least not driving cars, after all, some people were only able to walk to get around, they must be so upset because of the convenience of modern transportation!
Remember when Throneblades of Yekesha were UBER?
I will get to this quest ASAP because IF I read this right, then it is possible to raise my Smithing skill up to about Trivial 54 for FREE???
I am also going to look around for other similar quests for the other tradeskills. This sounds tedious but heck - Free skill ups, no plat involved?
I'll take that anyday.
