Cracked Mining Pick +2510, -680
Rusted Mining Pick +1460, -480
Wobbly Mining Pick +1520, +900
Chipped Mining Pick +325, 0
________________________________________________
I'm confused! On the EQ Atlas Map, there isn't a +2500 on the Lavastorm map. In fact, it doesn't show past 1500 either positive or negative in either direction. Did the whole map for Lavastorm change?
Welnik's Picks and Ore
| Quest Started By: | Description: | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
This quest may be doable at an earlier level, however the rewards have required levels of 40.
Zone into Lavastorm Mountains and find Miner Welnik is a little north of Druid Ring (location +1030, +500). Miner Welnik says 'Oh dear, oh dear. Where have they gone? My boss is going to kill me!' You say, 'Hail, Miner Welnik' Miner Welnik says 'Hello hello, I am afraid I don't have much time for idle chatter, I must find those [picks]!' You say, 'What picks?' Miner Welnik says 'The mining picks! Bibol had me gathering up all the ones that were no longer usable to take to the smith and they are just gone. If I don't get them back in time, he will have my head! I've already wasted far too much [digging] time looking for them.' You say, 'Digging?' Miner Welnik says 'Dig dig dig, that's what we do. I don't know what is so all-important, but the boss has been in no mood for tricks this time around. I must [find] those picks and dig another six feet!' You say, 'I will help you find them' Miner Welnik says 'Yes find them, I must! Oh . . Oh what are you doing? Do you think you could [help]? Can you find them for me?' You say, 'I can help' Miner Welnik says 'There are four that I am still missing. How does this sound, I will stay here and dig to keep them off my back, and you find the picks and take them to the smith? His name is Numden, has a little shop in Steamfont. I am sure that I could find a way to reward you.' The Mining picks can be found as groundspawns around Lavastorm: Cracked Mining Pick +2510, -680 Rusted Mining Pick +1460, -480 Wobbly Mining Pick +1520, +900 Chipped Mining Pick +325, 0 Collect all four and head to the Steamfont Mountains. See Smith Numden at -1270, +700 post-revamp. Give him the four Mining picks. Smith Numden says 'These picks are in sad shape, that they are. This would take longer than it is worth. I just forged some new ones, just take those and get out!' You gain epperience!! You receive a Bundle of Shiny New Picks. Return to Lavastorm Mountains and give the new picks to Miner Welnik. Miner Welnik says 'Oh, these are perfect! Please accept this as a reward. Actually, since you have done so much for me, I might be able to give you something [extra].' You gain experience!! You receive an Intricate Tool Belt. You say, 'Something extra?' Miner Welnik says 'I am a bit of a jeweler on the side. I find it relaxing after working in the mines all day, and it comes in handy when I find the spare gem laying around. There is a special kind of fiery ore that can be found in these mountains. Bring me four pieces of it, and I shall make you a ring. How does that sound?' Head to Solusek's Eye and kill goblins until you've looted four pieces of Fiery Ore. Return to Lavastorm Mountains with the Fiery Ore and give them to Miner Welnik. Miner Welnik says 'That's the stuff. Three for me, one for you! Here is your ring.' You gain experience!! You receive a Glowing Magma Ring. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

using locations always confuses me, but the cracked mining pick is to the left of the head miner. im not sure the loc. i hope this helps ^_^
Indeed, I have found a brand-spanking new map for Lavastorm at eqfiend. It's TOTALLY different. I can't wait to go there and check it out!
OK for you low level toons that can't wear the belt, let's face it, this is a super easy quest to do, just pick up 4 ground spawns (which spawn quickly), all in the same zone. The only pain is going to Steamfont and back and if you are real low level you can be bound in Steamfont and intentional die in Lavastorm for an instant port home with gear on.
This item is lore, but not no drop, you can get another one real easy, so why not just sell it in the bazaar. Low lvl toons are always in need of pp, and you can trade it/ or use the pp to buy gear you can wear. The stats are real nice and I can see why EQ does not want a lvl 1 toon wearing this, and a lvl 1 toon could do this quest.
It is NOT MQ so don't think your lvl 1 toon only has to loot the pick near the zone in (succor spot) and a high toon gets the other 3 and with hand those in fist. The steamfont gnome says all 4 items must be handed in at once, I did it but only b/c my other toon was full. That was time mistake.

I got the cloak, neck, and belt easy enough, but i cant get the guy to take the ore for the ring. On top of that, the goober keeps taking one of the ores and giving me back only three. >:|
anyway, the ore also drops off the drakes around the area, so at least is isnt that hard to get another one.

I finished both this quest and the Depth Gauge quest this morning, and after much experimentation and waiting- I'm fairly certain that the anti-farm coding resets when Bibol and Welnik do their zonewide patter about getting back to work. I had to wait for both of them to reset, and both times, I finally completed the second part of each quest immediately after they did their zonewide patter.
Found the picks easy enough, they were just where it's says in the write up. Got the belt. Easily got 4 bricks of Fiery Ore killing about a dozen or so fire drakes. Miner Welnik won't take the ore??
I'm thinking that, maybe because there are so many people doing these quests the turn-ins are either out of sync or on a timer. Had the same problem with Bibol's Errend quest but eventually (after leaving and coming back) he took the stuff. I'll try again on the turn in for the ring.

I lost my post
I've got to say I wasn't impressed when I did the first part with my 28 druid and I can't wear the reward until I hit 40. Not sure what they were thinking making that a required level.

It's +1460 -480
After going nuts not finding the Rusted mining pick, I finally discovered it located at pos 1460 neg 480 not pos 1460 neg 1480 as stated above.
I measured the spawn time of the pick near the Nektulos entrance. It was about 6 minutes.
All 4 gnome quests are bugged at the moment. Handing things in frequently gets them given back, even if unstacked where multiple items are handed in. With the ring part, sometimes he only returns 3 ore.
The ore drops off the Fire Drakes which are all around him.

It seems that the quests are on a timer of some sort. I was able to do some of the turn ins but had to wait an hour or so to do the rest. Not sure if this is a bug or intended to prevent people from making a bunch of plat by doing them over and over and just selling the items to the vendor for 119pp each.

The 2nd Part of this quest is not working on the Maelin Starpyre Server... When given 4 fiery ores he returns them to me, however, without saying "I have no use for that item"
Were they stacked or unstacked?
