This quest begins with Cobi Frostbeard in Thurgadin. He's found in an unmarked shop: After zoning in, cross both bridges, turn left towards the bank, then (at the bank) hang a right. He'll be in the fifth shop on the left.

You say, 'Hail, Cobi Frostbeard'

Cobi Frostbeard says 'Greetings to you. I seek one who calls himself a druid. What do you call yourself, manling?'

You say, 'I call myself a druid'

Cobi Frostbeard says 'Good. I had hoped you were one. As nature's guardian, you fight the never-ending struggle against those who seek to defile it. It is an admirable quality and I wish to aid you. I will provide you with a cap, a tunic, sleeves, bracers, gloves, leggings and boots.'

You say, 'What bracers?'

Cobi Frostbeard says 'Bracers are quite easy to imbue. Simply find three crushed opals and an eroded leather bracer and I will complete the ritual to enchant them.'

Crushed Opals are dropped in various Velious zones while Eroded Leather armor drops from the higher level giants in Kael Drakkel.

Cobi Frostbeard smiles warmly as he hands you your reward. 'You have done well, _____.'

Your faction standing with Coldain got better.
Your faction standing with Dain Frostreaver IV got better.
Your faction standing with Kromzek got worse.
Your faction standing with Kromrif got worse.
You gain experience!!

Eroded Leather Bracer

Can someone fill me in on exactly who drop's the Eroded Leather Bracer, what lvl the mob is and where exactly it can be found plz.
RE: Eroded Leather Bracer
# Jul 08 2002 at 5:09 PM Rating: Decent
The eroded stuff drops rarely from the 50+ish giants. Since I have mostly killed them near the arena, that is where I know personally that it drops.

PS. Rare.
PPS. Did I mention it rarely drops?
another place?

Just a little extra information... The cast time for the effect on the bracer is 7.5 seconds. Thats a bit shorter than the cast time on ES vambraces (8.0 seconds). Also someone told me this effect and the one from the ES vambraces will stack, Even though they are the same spell. Haven't tested it yet so not totally sure.
RE: extra info
# May 13 2002 at 7:23 PM Rating: Default
You can't make the same spell stack, it will only refresh the spell effect. If you kept casting with the ES vambraces or Rowyl's Bracer you would not do more damage. However, your spell would not wear off. So using both the arms and bracer is basically pointless.
RE: extra info
# Oct 13 2003 at 10:34 PM Rating: Decent
If two druids do the same dot, it stacks. Just some helpful info. so nobody is missinformed.
RE: extra info
# Oct 31 2003 at 8:15 PM Rating: Decent
No DoTs of same name do not stack. not in my 65 lvls at least.

65 druid
56 necro
35 shammy
7th hammer

Actually, same named DoTs from different druids will stack. You just can't stack your own DoTs, it'll overwrite the last one that you cast. Tried this a little while ago and both are DoTs were going.
Multi-questing??
# Mar 24 2002 at 3:08 PM Rating: Decent
Forgive my ignorance, but I am not too sure about multi-questing, since I have never done it, but I have a monk friend that has the leather bracer, and said he wanted to help me... I have the gems, just waiting for ally faction...
To start the quest, he gives him the bracer, and then I give the gems, and then Cobi gives me the finished product back?
Please let me know...
Thanks

Hi Sglanton, yes, that's how it would work.

BTW, I just got the leather bracer tonight ! :D

soooo happy....

Bye bye ES arms.

Eroded bracelet
# Mar 12 2002 at 11:35 PM Rating: Excellent
The eroded bracelet works fine with this quest, i just did it and got the reward for it.

Here is how to do it.

Hunt mobs that gives + coldain faction until Cobi will give u the quest.

1: Before u hand in items, give Cobi any useless item, that is not a quest gem.

2: Then u give Cobi the eroded bracelet and 3 crushed opal, make sure u dont stack the opals.

3: Cobi will give u the finished bracer.

Stuff u can do wrong is......

1: not having high enought faction with coldain.

2: If u dont clear any previus quest gems, that some smart guy might have given to Cobi, he will think u try to cheat him when u hand in gems. Thats why u give him a useless item, to clear any items that might have been given to him previus.

3: u must not be under any ilusion when doing quest.

4: u must have a free room in inventory.

And btw the Eroded leather bracelet is the item the monk quest giver ask for. Cobi will ask for eroded leather bracer, but it dont make any diference if u give him bracer or bracelet.

YES !!
Eroded Bracelet and 3 crushed opals works just fine !!

I got the Rowyl's Bracer of Nature as planned.

Thanks for the posts.

Crushed Opal

Bracelet?
# Oct 06 2001 at 1:29 PM Rating: Default
I was on a Kael raid last night and won the roll on a no-drop eroded leather bracelet. Not quite the same as an eroded lether bracer, but can't find bracelet listed anywhere in the charts. Does anyone know if the bracelet is used for anything?
RE: Bracelet?
# Mar 10 2002 at 12:58 PM Rating: Decent
A guildie of mine looted the Bracelet as well...

Did any1 find out what quest the bracelet is for ?

Pls reply if you know.
RE: Bracelet?
# Feb 07 2002 at 2:44 PM Rating: Default
Well, it is certain that the bracelet is not the same as the bracer, even though it looks like a bracer, goes in the same slot and is spelled similarly. Not sure what gems go with the bracelet, if any, but they aren't crushed opals. I turned it in as a bracer with crushed opals, got nothing back.

Okay, I just did this quest. I'm a 53 druid. I got the eroded leather bracer in Kael when I was 50th or so. Bought the 3 crushed opals at 2k each. Cobi is near the bank. Go past the bank, take the right fork, and he's in one of the buildings on the right.

You say, 'Hail Cobi Frostbeard'

Cobi Frostbeard says 'Greetings to you. I seek one who calls himself a druid. What do you call yourself, manling?'

You say, 'i call myself a druid'

#Anonymous, Posted: May 20 2001 at 1:23 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) That's just messed up what that cleric did. If you need the item then fine. Don't lie to people so you can sell them and make money though. If you actually need the item to do a quest there is sometimes enough people that will willingly.
Lvl Range
# May 03 2001 at 6:28 AM Rating: Default
I believe the reason that the lvl range is like that is b/c its probably possible to multiquest this since not all the components are no drop and it would be possible to get a lvl 1 to thrugadin to hand in the gems after one of their uber friends hands in the eroded leather piece.
RE: Lvl Range
# Feb 03 2002 at 10:09 AM Rating: Default
level range is like that just because someone didnt put one in when they submited the quest and 1-60 is probally the default
#Anonymous, Posted: Jan 28 2001 at 8:13 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) There are a few other classes that need the same gems druids need. I've already seen a cleric that had almost all the gems for our quest's. He prolly won them while grouped in icewell or something.. Told people he needed them. Then went Anon and hit Gfay to sell them for 2k each. LOL People actually paid that too!!! He apparently is not interested in the Velious armor. heh
#Anonymous, Posted: Mar 12 2001 at 8:05 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) That's just greedy. Rare gems like this should go to ppl who want to complete the quest.
Lvl on quest?
# Jan 02 2001 at 9:30 PM Rating: Default
I'm a lvl 16 Druid and was wondering how can this quest be rated for lvls 1-60 if all the creatures in Velious are lvls 25 and up. These items sound too good to be true for my lvl. Can someone that's been there please enlighten me on how this would be done by a character of my lvl.
RE: Lvl on quest?
# Apr 30 2002 at 4:22 AM Rating: Decent
This NEVER happens, but it is possible foe a level 1 to get this item. If you have a group that will keep you invised and then take you with them into Kael, hunt giants for you and allow you to loot the corroded leather, then gave you gems, then brought you back to Thurgadin and bound you. You could then wait for ring wars and hit giants for 1 point of damage (maybe) and get faction when others kill them.

You still couldn't use the effect on this armor, but you could get it and wear it.

This is a newbie's wish. Wish in one hand and dump in the other. Then squeez it to see which feels more real.

That is how.

You basically are not going to be doing the quest unless level 54 plus pretty much, unless some friend has the leather part and gives you the gems.
#Anonymous, Posted: Mar 19 2001 at 10:47 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) what is she doing? nice information she posted, talk this person and give it this, whats up with that? what do you say how do you get the stuff, unreliable person
RE: Lvl on quest?
# Jan 04 2001 at 3:10 PM Rating: Default
The bottom line is, it wouldn't be. I think they have the level listed as 1-60 due to the fact that they don't know the exact level range yet. I haven't found anyplace that would be comfortable for a level 25 in Velious. I'd say the minimum to start grouping there would be low 30's.
RE: Lvl on quest?
# Jan 14 2001 at 5:19 PM Rating: Default
I think that the reason it says 1-60 is because you dont have to be a certain level to get the mob that starts the quest to talk to you, but, that could just be me
RE: Lvl on quest?
# Jan 28 2001 at 8:16 AM Rating: Default
Realistically... It is not possible to complete any of these quest's unless you are in the 50's. No one is going to take a level 30 druid to the arena in Kael Drakkan to get the erroded leather components. If you are not level 50 or so. Focus on leveling before getting your hopes up.
RE: Lvl on quest?
# Jul 13 2001 at 12:34 PM Rating: Default
heh uve been taking lvl 40 players on my Arena raids alot. Mostly just friends but i always have 2-3 players under lvl 45 when i raid Kael, and i raid Arena alot. Dont meen they cant do the quest still they just need to be allied with dwarve

any thing below that is to much work on healers to keep em alive and its scuicide, dont expect high lvls to babysit u
Opal

Can you get opal from vender and have ogres crush from Shaman quest crush them and hand these with Eroded leather bracer to get Rowyls Bracer of Nature?

No, the ogres cannot crush normal storebought opals. You will need to loot the correct ones from the appropriate mobs.

Lvl 1? Who's high here? What is the real starting level on this?
#Anonymous, Posted: Dec 21 2000 at 7:41 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) If you have to ask what the starting level is, then you are not high enough to do it.
#Anonymous, Posted: Dec 22 2000 at 1:13 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Well Velious just went live a little while ago...so people have the right to ask
#Anonymous, Posted: Dec 22 2000 at 6:27 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Ok, what is so hard about simply answering a question. People would like info on this quest, me included, and we don't really need a continuing flow of smart remarks. So, if you have info on quest, it would be much appreciated, and I am lvl 45 so I think I am approaching a high enough lvl to ask...if that's ok.
RE: how about answers
# Dec 24 2000 at 4:23 AM Rating: Decent
As far as I know Most sites list the armor quests as 50+ The Quest gems are dropped in several zones, Wyverns in Cobalt scar are 44-46 and randomly drop a gem evry so often, The critters in Icewall Keep catacombs drop gems but they are 50-55. As for eroded I don't know where it drops. I've heard rumors of Tower of frozen shadow on the 7th floor

Hope it helps
RE: how about answers
# Dec 24 2000 at 8:03 AM Rating: Decent
Was told Eroded Leather drops in Kael, off higher level giants, near the arena. Gems are dropped off alot of mobs in most zones. Got some crushed opals from Sentient Armor in Wakening Lands and gems used for other classes' armor. Saw quite a few gems drop in Icewell and some in Velketor's Labyrinth too.
No Drop
# Dec 26 2000 at 8:39 PM Rating: Default
Are the gems no drop? I was told that the eroded stuff is, but what about the gems?
RE: No Drop
# Dec 27 2000 at 7:01 AM Rating: Default
The gems are not no drop, can be passed to anyone. I imagine soon, people will be selling and trading them for things.
