    This solo task begins with Trophy Hunter Locke in the Barren Coast at approximate location -190, -45.

    You say, 'Hail, Trophy Hunter Locke'

    Trophy Hunter Locke says 'Good day [_____]. You look like you are an [adventurer].'

    You say, 'I am an adventurer!'

    Trophy Hunter Locke says 'Indeed you are! And as such a great adventurer, I should think you'd enjoy some challenging work. Listen here, I am trying to start a business that offers services to trophy hunters -- you know, folk who like to boast of hunting the most rare and dangerous beasts! In this business, though, we do the hunting, they do the bragging! To get started I will need some help collecting some beasts for trophy-making from an island in the [Buried Sea].'

    You say, 'The Buried Sea?'

    Trophy Hunter Locke says 'The Buried sea is a sea to the east of here. Lots of activity here lately with the whirlpool showing up and all that. I'm most interested in an [island] rumored to have many wild beasts.'

    You say, 'What island?'

    Trophy Hunter Locke says 'Yes, it's called Monkey Rock, though I hear there is more than monkeys there. In fact, judging by your interest, maybe you can handle several of the [tasks] I have to complete to get this business off the ground. I will reward you well!'

    You say, 'What tasks?'

    Trophy Hunter Locke says 'Progress! Now, listen, take one of the ships from here to the Buried Sea. You may have a bit of swimming ahead of you too. Monkey Rock is far southwest from where the ships docks in the Buried Sea.'

    At this point you are offered five tasks, one of which is 'Monkey Trophies'.

    You have been assigned the task 'Monkey Trophies'.

    Trophy Hunter Locke is collecting monkey trophies from Monkey Rock. Bring him an assortment of monkey trophies for his appraisal.

    Monkey Rock is the southeastern island in The Buried Sea.

    Just did this for the first time as a 66th rogue.

    Had to drop about 35 gorillas before I saw my first 'Pristine Gorilla Canine', so guess that's the rare drop to finish this one. Got about 6 Pristine gorilla teeth in the same time.

    "The way that each isle (apart from Jardel's Hook) works is that the first two tasks offer only experience and faction. You are offered one bone as an option on your third win, two bones as options on your fourth win, and all three bones as options on your fifth win. "

    The names of the animals that drop these quest pieces are: "a frothing gorilla" and "an afflicted gorilla". Any gorilla on the island can drop them. Note - Thunderstep can drop the pieces, but you wont get a task update when you loot it. Go figure he drops the last piece I need, heh.

    I set up camp with my 67 necro by the druid rings.

    The druid spell NPC is good to sell my drops to.

    I usually grab 4 quests when I'm out here.


    From the Barren coast get
    1. Ship Wrecks. Can be done while you wait for the ship
    2. Mapping suncrest ridge. Its practically on your way to monkey island.
    3. Scouting monkey rock. Takes a few minutes once you get to monkey rock.
    4. This quest, Monkey Trophies.


    Single pulls are a snap. They have a tiny agro radius. They hardly ever resist snare (darkness) from my 67 necro and if they do I can recast before they get to me, although I do have a DoN spell casting haste item. Root em or kite em on the grass by the druid rings. The experience from all these isn't too bad. With double xp it's an AA in 30 minutes killing the Gorillas, plus the XP from the quests.

    XP at 67:
    quest: mapping suncrest Ridge: 1-2 percent reg XP or 18 AAxp
    quest Ship Wrecks: 1-2 reg xp, 2 AAxp
    quest Scouting Monkery Rock: 1-2 Rex xp, 7 AAxp
    quest monkey trophies: 7 AAxp
