Thurgadin is the home of the Coldain dwarves of Velious. It is a thriving city full of shops and taverns, a library, and a bank. They're a little apprehensive of outsiders, but will allow you into their city provided you haven't already made enemies of the Coldain by slaughtering their kind on the outside.

Please email to me at "paulhowk@netvigator.com" if you know how to improve the faction at the city of Thurgadin because I couldn't purchase anything over there when I came the place around banker at the first time.

Thanks

Just slaughter a bunch of drakkel dire wolves and any frost giants. All give +coldain +cov and -kromriff/zek .. area near the fort in GD is a great place to get your coldain faction up .. now if only CoV was as easy to raise :P

Went from threateningly to amiable in just a few hours of killing the wolves (much faster than giants with low *** bard dmg output)

Everybody starts off at 'apprehensive' to the Coldain of Thurgadin. You will be KOS ('threateningly') to the giants. You will be KOS ('scowling') to the inhabitants of Skyshrine.

Religion seems to be a factor. My ogre warrior of Rallos Zek was 'dubious' to the giants right from the start.

Not true I started off indifferent to Coldain dwarves. Threatenly to Giants and not sure about skyshrine, haven't been brave enough to travel there I am only 31

Where is Normon Stonetooth?

Anyone know where this little fella hangs out? I would like to start my Focus Quest
RE: Where is Normon Stonetooth?
# Jun 05 2001 at 1:13 PM Rating: Decent
Normon Stonetooth is in the Thurg. mines.
At the entrance to the mines take your immediate right. Go down the ladder, or just jump! : )

At the bottom of the ladder face right and head strait. You will see an open cavern with some water, upturned mine cart, tracks etc..
Cross the water...careful there are 2 spawns just as you get across water...
Jump over gaps(3 jumps i think total) until you get to the end of the tracks... careful 2 more spawn points here at top of ladder.
if you fall do not worry head until you see another ladder heading up.(note at the ladder is where the second 2 spawn point is).
Once you get to the end of the tracks. you will see another upside down mine cart and a large group of crystals. you will see paths left right and strait ahead.
You will want to go left and then the immediate right. its slightly veered more so than a turn.
also there is a spawn point here.
continue down this short cooridor until you see a small outcropping of crystals and Normon Stonetooth.

He will agro monsters so if you are in trouble, run to him for help. he quads in the 90's and is red to a 39lvl tank.
Good Luck and safe travels

Bard quest bp

I was reading that the Tarnished Bp for the Bard Kael BP quest drops in this zone off of Thurgadin Royal Guards, anyone know what zone they are in and around what levels they are

RE: Bard quest bp
# Jun 19 2001 at 3:00 PM Rating: Default
The Royal guards only drop Royal Frosted Velium armor. The Kael quest armor drops in the Temple of Veeshan and is a very high level zone. I would estimate you should be 55+ to go here.

The trip is long to get there. You need to go from Iceclad to East Wastes, through Kael Drakkal to Wakening Lands. (you can get a tooth here from the portal so you can port in later).

Then you need to zone in from Wakening Lands to Skyshrine (most likely KOS unless you have done faction work. You need to get a key to the Cobalt Scar Portal to get to Cobalt Scar (You can get a tooth for the CS portal in CS). Then you need to go through Siren's Grotto, preferrably with en Evac through the dungeon. The next zone is Western Wastes, which is where the Temple of Veeshan is located.

This trip will be much easier if you are non KOS to Claws of Veeshan since Skyshrine, Cobalt Scar and Western Wastes have many mobs on this faction.

No, it will not be the same at Thurgadin. The dwarves in CC are on a different faction. I know because I am scowling to the Coldain, yet in CC, the dwarves con apprehensive. /shrug

I haven't ruined either my dwarf or giant faction in Velious yet, but I'm sincerely leaning towards befriending the giants. If I'm not already KoS to dwarves (unlike the giants) I may just change my mind. But the important thing is 'Are there banks in Thurgidin?' I'm sick of being encumbered all the time and taking the boat back to the mainland and then running all the damned way back to Neriak!!! Please help...
RE: Is there a bank???
# Mar 05 2001 at 3:56 PM Rating: Default
Yup, there is a bank. Been there. :) Sure beats carrying all that junk everywhere.
Just out of curiousity, why would you go all the way back to neriak? Can bank in FP or in Grobb. Not near as far.

There is a bank - Thrugadin Exchange. Turn left when you get into the main part of Thrugadin and it's the first place on the right down that passage.

Ungdin is located in the mines within thurgadin. To get to him you will require a shrink potion, unless u are a dwarf/gnome

Check out the map on www.eqatlas.com for his exact location

It is possible to get to Ungdin with some other races w/o shrink or illusion. My iksar monk makes it through the cave by ducking and standing several times inching forward through the rocks to get past.

I'm not sure if you can shadow step beyond the blockage, but that might work for some classes as well.

Ungdin is in the mines, loc 150,neg25 ish.

To reach him, go into the tunnel directly opposite the mine entrance, then at the justion go right. You may have some trouble squeezing through the rocks if you are not a small race.

My questions:
What is the Velium Retrieval quest and who gives it?
What do I do with a Coldain Head I got off a tar goo in the mines?
KoS?

Monsters and guards..
# Dec 22 2000 at 8:22 PM Rating: Default
If you hunt the spiders, rats, etc, will the guards aggro on you or the mob you are killing?
RE: Monsters and guards..
# Dec 27 2000 at 12:43 AM Rating: Default
The answer to this question is that these mobs are so obnoxious that they tend to snap at anything they pass. What that means is that if you take one of the rats, bats, spiders or goos up to the guards that roam the streets, the mob will be stupid enough to aggro on the guards and thus get themselves killed.

So -- yes, the guards will kill the mobs (not you) but remember that the guards are only slightly higher level than these rats, bats, spiders and goos.

If you are in trouble, I would suggest attempting to root it near a guard....only then will the mob stay still long enough for the guards to kill it.

Guards wont automatically kill something like city guards do - and the mobs are fast suckers...

There are rats that roam this city that will aggro. One quite embarrassingly killed my lvl 33 mage in the middle of the street.

The rats don't roam the city, they primarily reside in the mines towards the back of the city. There are also crystal spiders, bats, and oozes, good exp for a 39 solo warrior, but still dangerous, they hit for quite a bit
