You say, 'Hail, Loremaster Borannin'

Loremaster Borannin says 'Greetings, _____, please be seated and hear the Grand Historian, he is among the wisest of our people.'

You say, 'I seek to perform duties for the crown.'

Loremaster Borannin says 'Those eager to prove their loyalty to the Dain may do so by completing tasks that I have been commissioned to assign. If you wish to begin your service, return to me with four toes of our enemy, the Kromrif.'

Bring him four Frost Giant Toes (common drop from Kromrif giants). Upon turn-in:

Loremaster Borannin says 'Ahh, well done! On behalf of the Dain I thank you for making a dent in the number of our sworn enemy. Please accept this as a token of our appreciation. It is trivial, I know, but if you are as loyal as you claim to be, it will increase in power over time. It just so happens I have a [task] to further demonstrate your loyalty, ______.'

Your faction standing with Coldain has been adjusted by 10.
Your faction standing with Dain Frostreaver IV has been adjusted by 2.
Your faction standing with Kromzek has been adjusted by -1.

2 Unrefined Diamonds
3 Unrefined Emeralds
3 Unrefined Sapphires.
Are found in Wakening lands, clear the Geonid tunnels. I've gotten all my gems in 2 cycles. Better drop rate than Western wastes, and faster spawns. They drop from a shimmering geonid but all geonids' are placeholders.

There is no "plate breastplate mold". According to Zam, the bp can be made with a "breastplate mold" sold by the same merchants as the other pieces.
FYI since we can see the amount of faction now...

So, before you start this, it will be worth your while to pre-loot 90% of this stuff. I am going to list everything for up to the Shawl 2.0, where another person has already written one.

The Great Divide:
2 Drakkel Wolf Whiskers drop from A Drakkel Dire Wolf (Note: the highest concentration of these wolves is near the Nexus Scion. Only took me 30 minutes to get my two.)
5 Glowing Worm Bile: Alright this one is tricky. It only drops of off elder and young shardwurms. They are spread out, but two or three will be in the tunnels. They will have a tell-tale glow about them. you can notice it on the ground. These will ALWAYS drop the bile. Took me two hours to get all 5.

Eastern Wastes (Bring a tracker);
8 Snow Griffin Eggs (these drop in BOTH EW zones. Get 8, put 4 in the bank. You can thank me later.)
4 Frost Giant Toes
10 Kromrif Heads
1 Tundra Kodiak Meat
2 Frost Bunny Meat (In shawl #3, it says Snow Bunny Meat. This is incorrect, it is Frost Bunny Meat.)
2 Ulthork Meat (Best place to get these is near the ruins in the Rain of Fear version of EW.)
1 Woven Frost Giant Beard
1 Ulthork Tusk (same as the meat. Go to the RoF version)
2 Manticore Manes (tracker makes this job much easier)

Velktor's Lab: Your new favorite zone.
75 Crystalline Silk Threads
10 Small Pieces of Velium
4 Large Bricks of Velium
15 Blocks of Velium
3 Crystalline Silk

I find the easiest way to get all this is to go into the tunnels, which can be found by going through the fake wall on the ramp. And farming ALL the spiders. This will take awhile.

Western Wastes: (Bring a tracker)
2 Unrefined Diamonds
3 Unrefined Emeralds
3 Unrefined Sapphires.
The best way to get these is go to the Wyvern caves in the northern part of the zone, kill them all, and repeat.
8 Velium Hound Furs: this is where you want a tracker. They have a large aggro range, but are widespread.

Cobalt Scar:
2 Siren Hair ( I farmed in SG for hours did not see one. Kill the siren's infront of the zone in to Siren's Grotto a few times. I got both mine in one spawn.)

Siren's Grotto: Maze City
2 Runed Sea Shells (These MUST have the Enduring Breath effect on them with one charge.)
1 Swordfish Tooth
1 Molkor Hide

Kael Drakkel:
1 Royal Kromrif blood Drops off both Klaggan Iceshard and Vorken Iceshard.

Iceclad Ocean:
3 Iceclad Cutlassfish (Fishing! Have fun, bring beer.)



SHOPPING LIST
While in the Plane of Knowledge:
2 Jug of Sauces (Chef Denrun in the Plane of Knowledge)
1 Loaf of Bread (Chef Denrun in the Plane of Knowledge)
1 Mixing Bowl (Chef Denrun in the Plane of Knowledge)
3 Spices (Chef Denrun in the Plane of Knowledge)
2 Flasks of Water (Chef Denrun in the Plane of Knowledge)
1 Vinegar (Chef Denrun in the Plane of Knowledge)
1 Bottle of Milk (Chef Denrun in the Plane of Knowledge)
1 Cup Flower (Chef Denrun in the Plane of Knowledge)
2 Platinum Bars (Jeweler Nonny in the Plane of Knowledge)
8 Silver Threads (Tailor Kujen in the Plane of Knowledge)
2 Glass Shards (Sculptor Radee in the Plane of Knowledge)

When you spend your time in Thurgadin:
1 Etching Tools (say "I need a set of Etching Tools" to Meg Tucter)
1 Velium Smithy Hammer (Nimren Stonecutter in Thurgadin)
23 Coldain Velium Tempers (Nimren Stonecutter in Thurgadin)

When visiting the Drakkin of Crescent Reach:
1 Breastplate Mold (Smith Nkosi in Crescent Reach)
1 Plate Boot Mold (Smith Nkosi in Crescent Reach)
1 Plate Gauntlet Mold (Smith Nkosi in Crescent Reach)
1 Plate Helm Mold (Smith Nkosi in Crescent Reach)
1 Plate Greaves Mold (Smith Nkosi in Crescent Reach)
1 Plate Vambrace Mold (Smith Nkosi in Crescent Reach)
2 Plate Bracer Molds (Smith Nkosi in Crescent Reach)

When you are supposed to be sleeping:
1 Pot (Make it, it is easy)
1 Snake Egg (Go kill a snake)
1 Pie Tin ( Make it, it is easy, )


Have fun!

You do not need a tracker for the snowgriffins, they spawn behind the snow wall at Sleepers Tomb -6600 sort of, just go to the tomb, go past the snow hill behind it (up and then setup shop below) , here roamers are found, giants, manticores, rhino, mammoth, cougars, snowbunnies , kill everything and the snow griffons will spawn after awhile - almost everything you need for the 1st 3 shawls is dropping here.

Gems seem to drop much more commonly off the geonids in Wakening Lands than the wyverns. These drops are from "uncommon" spawns either shimmering geonids in Wakening Lands or Burrowing Wyverns in WW. They do not drop from the "normal" Wyvern of Geonid mobs.

Ty for this list. You also need Rubbing Alcohol found in Thurgadin. Get more than 4 extra Snow Griffin Eggs, trivial in 2.0 is 400 and minimum eggs is 4. "Plate Breastplate Mold" is wrong, you need a "Breastplate Mold".

8th shawl "raid"
# Nov 09 2005 at 1:58 PM Rating: Decent
We just did the 8th shawl walk with 1 group.
66 chanter
63 bard
65 cleric
65 druid
62 warrior
60 ranger

it got hairy at times but nobody died and we got the job done.
i did it a long time ago and the guy you guard was mezzable at the time but he wasnt this time so we just got agro and the bard ran him in circles while the group rested then the chanter(me) just mind wiped him and he when on to the next part with no problems. We did loose him when he crossed the water but he poped up on the other shore you just got to be patient.

# Oct 24 2005 at 4:53 PM Rating: Decent
This quest is sooo hard I got all the way to #6..and am unable to find a recipie to skill my tailoring high enough to do the combine! I also just found out there is Raid needed for the final shawl. 50k (subtracting profit from re-sale of excess from goods bought,excess of needed combined componants, and combines) later and at a brick wall! If you take this on I suggest u get every tradeskill at a mastery lvl (220+) 1st (you will need it not only for quest combines; but also for the combines you'll need just to do the combines you need to do in order to get the product you'll need for the actual skill u need at that time)! then decide if it's worth it to you so you dont waste a whole lot of time you could have spent getting XP! I say it's a waste of time! I regret ever trying! If tailoring didn't require smithing to be above 146 after 158 tailoring or if all the recipies in between 158 and 250 didnt require your skill to be higher than the actual triv, then it would be worth it! GOOOD LUCK!!!(You will need it)

RE: This quest
# Oct 26 2005 at 12:49 PM Rating: Decent
You don't need to get your skills up that high. With skills in the 180 area should easily be good enough. The trick to shawl #6 is that you just have to resign yourself to doing it several times. For number 8, you don't need a raid. All that's really needed is one or two groups depending on level. For your tailoring, just go make some platinum ribbons. They'll get you to the mid 180s.
RE: This quest
# Oct 26 2005 at 8:53 PM Rating: Decent
I did look into that option...It requires your smithing(the absolute hardest skill) to be at 148 for the shears...and weeks of foraging for the dye. I have no clue even how to begin to forage. Is there a recipie that I can just buy the necessary items for combine??
RE: This quest
# Oct 27 2005 at 1:16 PM Rating: Decent
Hi!

A couple of points to help clarify:
You don't need to smith the shears yourself, you can buy them in the bazaar.
I personally don't recommend the ribblons, complete money sink and very expensive.
First off, unless you are a Ranger or Druid, you won't be foraging at all. Secondly, the ribbons and dye components will cost you a small fortune.
Look into the DoN Cultural armor (tailoring). The Expert's leather/silk combines can take you to 182 and the components are much more easily obtained (depending on race).
Last thing, definitely peruse the EQ Traders Corner. www.eqtraders.com
It will answer many questions more accurately and in greater depth than possible on Allakhazam.
I love Allah but it's better for other information.
Good Luck, I've done it (cheaply) and so can you :-)

The first two parts of the Coldain Shawl quest involve killing many Frost giants, this increases the faction with both the Coldain and even Better CoV ( Claws of Veeshan). The four toes are not rare and drop on a regular bases from the giants near the EW zone.
Both these quests can be completed by buying them but i recommend getting the faction, Claws of Veeshan have many great quests to offer if your faction is healthy with them.

I had 30+ heads and 12+ toes that I had collected
on many alts over a couple years. When I decided
I wanted to MQ some items to a necro I started to
work his faction. I did the shawl quest 1+2 three
times (destroyed the shall afterwords).

Im still indifferent. Plus Ive killed good bunch
of giants with my necromancer. =(

Back to work.

i conned apprehensive to everyone, including the Loremaster but gave it a shot anyway. I said my line "I wish to perform duties for the crown." and it worked. I got the quest. Level 40 agnostic bard. So go figure. Thought you might like to know. Biggest mistakes when doing lines I've found are 1) spelling errors. 2) not in /say mode.

Maybe its just Terris Thule, but whenever i go to GD, there is always a group of lvl 50+ people camping the giant fort for CoV faction. as a lvl 39 cleric (yay for CH!) they were more than happy to have me to reduce their downtime and keep the corpses cleared. In 3 hours i was lvl 41, had heads and toes falling out my ears, made about 200p, got about 10 points in baking from making frost giant steaks and was maxed negative faction with the kromrifs. Too bad the other shawls arent this easy....

depending on how far into 50 they were, this could be very realistic to level that fast. At 52 many of the giants in the fort are lblue with a fair share of green and a few dblue. I would imagine at 55 it will be almost all green to me so anyone of lower level would get the exp for them and level very fast. And yes level x 1.5 does hold true even in the 50's. I 2box a lot and have watched that very closely.

Not sure if things are different on Terris than on Xev, but i don't ever remember a lvl39 being able to get xp grouped with 50+'s. And 39 - 41 in 3 hours on GD giants, hmm I don't think so, when you consider that as the lowest member of the group you'd get the least xp...I was quad kiting them at lvl39, and didn't progress that quickly.

Right quading giants at lvl 39???? The dire wolves sure but giants have a bit more hp and regen than the wolves. I play a 38 druid and while I am not an expert I seriously doubt that a 39 could quad the giants. Too many hp with a decent regen. And yes a 39 can group with 50's though they wont get much xp per kill a group of 50's could kill giants at such a rate that he would still get great xp and lvl fast

Dude, Emyals, get a f***ing clue, 39 X 1.5 is the formula, He can group with up to lvl 58 or 59 (too lazy to do math)
