This quest begins with an undead knight at location 440, 80, 30.

You say, 'Hail, an undead knight'

an undead knight says 'Leave this place or find yourself [bound to this land] as I am.'

You say, 'Bound to this land?'

an undead knight says 'I was torn to pieces for failure to complete a task for my master. I lost my life, my precious [shadowknight armor] and most of all, my [lower body]!!'

You say, 'What lower body?'

an undead knight says 'My lower body was taken from me, along with my hands. I was pieced together using portions of other failed champions. Now I can only [create darkforge armor] in the form of helms, breastplates, vambraces and bracers.'

You say, 'Shadowknight armor?'

an undead knight says 'My darkforge armor!! It was taken into the land of lizards by the lizardmen crusaders!! It is worthless decayed armor now!! I cannot even wear it any more, but perhaps you can!! Would you like me to [make you darkforge armor]?'

You say, 'Make me darkforge armor.'

an undead knight says 'Darkforge helms require my decayed helm and visor as well as two Freeport militia helms. The breastplate requires the decayed breastplate, decayed mail and two enchanted platinum bars. Vambraces need both decayed vambraces and a Qeynos Guard kite shield. The bracers require both decayed bracers and a broken horn from a minotaur lord.'




You need a Decayed Helm and Decayed Visor (both from various Tae Ew mobs in the Feerrott) and Damaged Militia Helms (from guards in and around Freeport).

Upon turn in:

An undead knight say, 'Two damaged Freeport Militia helms, the decayed helm and the ddcayed visor.'

An undead knight say, 'You now own the darkforge helm.'

This guy is an easy kill ( about 7 hits by me, lvl 33 SK and he runs) but be carefull, cus if he gets away just a few steps you can get up to 6 BIG guards on you. 3 kills, 2 helms. (not to mention 5 deaths)

My group and I killed probably 6 or 8 guards before one of them dropped a damaged freeport helm. Great exp so its not a total loss if they dont drop right away. Kiting with multiple dot's works well. Going back tomorrow to have some more fun.

Believe the Crusaders have a chance to drop ANY piece of decaying armor.

And you can do this quest (Or turn in the items) at any level. Unlike say Tolans or SS which you can wear, but need to be a certain level to activate the effects.
The Decaying helm

I'm a lvl 31 Shadowknight that has been in Cazic Thule for awhile now and I was wondering if the decaying helm is a rare drop form the crusaders?

The Pieces are random, although it seems the BP is a more common drop. At least for me it was.

# Jun 18 2001 at 12:55 AM Rating: Default
Just curious on that minimum level up there. It says 33, I read somewhere that 26 is okay to start hunting in and gathering pieces. Does that mean I can't turn them in until 33?
RE: curious

You can hunt in CT once you are 25+ I did.
But the crusaders areabout 30-35 and they spawn mostly in areas that you need a group of 30+ characters to camp well. You can start collecting peices at lvl 26, but as i said you rolly wont have to much luck til you are about 30. And there is no level restriction on handing in the items

Damaged Militial Helms

Since you are a SK. Invis yourself , go pass the East Freeport guards and zone to West Freeport. The guards is there drops Damage Militial Helms 10 out of 10 times for me. (lvl 35 SK)

p.s. stay near zone and keep invis mem'ed...invis youeself when your in East Freeport zone. West Freeport guards can see through invis.

WFP guards can see through invis if a player casts See Invis on them. So if you see any mischievous casters practicing their divination, just be careful and con EVERYTHING.

Also, you do not need Freeport Militia Helms, you need Damaged Militia Helms. Minor change and should be added to the Damaged Militia Helms for the quests involved.

Slight Change in Quest
# Jul 05 2000 at 1:40 PM Rating: Decent
First of all, the best place to find the Freeport Guard Helm that a level 35 Mage and I, a level 33 Shadow Knight, found was in East Freeport near the zone to West Freeport near the named begger. A Guard Dreiken would do his rounds, which took him right up to the spot where we would wait. He would spawn every 10-15 minutes and conned even or blue to me. He dropped the helm 4 out of 5 kills as well as Fine Steel Weapons and regular Short Swords. The Slight change noted is that there are now 2 Undead Knights in the Temple Solusek Ro. One does half the Quests for Dark Forge and the Other does the other half. Did not notice this change until after I had turned in the 2 decaying pieces and the 2 FP helms. Both Undead Knights are in the same room so you have to talk to them to find out which one does what.

That guard near the zone is an easy kill if you are grouped with someone to assist you. However, if you are low 30's and trying to solo for a damaged militia helm, the best spot kill is in East Freeport not too far from this Dreiken guy. Target = Guard Fentallin, level 16 n00b guard. You can run around invis in East Freeport following him without being seen no probs, and then he eventually wanders into an alleyway/corner between two buildings where you can drop invis and kill him. Just remember to snare... if he runs back towards his spawn point, there are definitely a few level 60 guards that will aggro you. I have found that he has dropped the helm needed for the quest roughly 3 out of 4 times.

i agree. Guard Dreiken was the best place i found. You could go around and kill every guard in EFP or WFP, but then you are taking several more faction hits for a very small increase in the chance of getting the helm. Sit and camp Dreiken and the next guard in from the zone wall repeatedly until you get your two helms. That way, you only take, roughly, eight faction hits. Once one of the guards drops his helm, stop killing him and wait for the second one to drop his. You should be able to get both helms in about an hour doing this. I got both helms in less than eight kills.

Also, by sitting next to the zone wall, you can have a good race group with you, and when the guard is down to about 20% health have them zone out before you deliver the killing blow. That way your buds aren't taking faction hits just so you can get some dude's hat.
