I am currently hunting these guys for the Matted Halfling Hides, which are used in the Necromancer Newbie Armor Quests. There are 2 roaming Leatherfoot Scouts, who walk from the camp of Leatherfoots in a circle over to what used to be called the "Newbie Log" in Nek Forest. I don't know if it's still called Newbie Log or what these days, but it's located at +1180, -190.
Anyway if you sit at about +1073, +204 and wait for the Scouts to walk by, these 2 roamers spawn every 15 minutes and they walk by every time.
The Matted Halfing Hides don't drop much. I just got 1 off the last 4 I killed.
Oh don't fight the roamers close to the circle of Leatherfoots because they have a very wide aggro range. I suggest to not fight if that circle is even visible at all.
it says lvl 2 of course they are green. and the image is the NEW skin. so it is just the NEW halfling skin. Which I might add looks cool. Too bad they invade the dark elf territory, i think they are getting soft. I mean... slay them, slay them ALL !!!!!
I have found the following items on the halflings. Matted halfling hide - used for necro armor quest(multi) halfling toes - necro robe halfling foot bone - unknown to me woven grass amulet - unknown to me halfling blood - unknown to me halfling skullcap and various weapons
The halfling foot bones are for a troll quest in Neriak foreign quarter (Halfling Bread). You need 4. Reward is a 5dmg/20delay dagger, better ratio than most newb quest weapons.
Not only upping the cleric faction but the Matted Halfing Hide, Woven grass amulet and halfling bood are all used for the cleric newbie quests. 4 Woven grass amulets are needed for the Initiate Symbol of Innoruuk. A starter quest for a pretty nice and usefull cleric neck peice. Might as well collect 5 instead of 1 and get another nice item.
I came across the camp nearest to the newbie log last night and it was full of halfling corpses! i called ooc and a lvl 30 something shadowknight replied that he had some fun with them, and that i could loot em all i wanted, which was great since im doing the Unholy silk armor necro quest and need the hides, i looted halfling hides, foot bones, handbones, halfling toes (verant fixed so they would drop in last patch i think) Skullcaps and necklaces, and halfling blood
Yea......these guys have been conin' green to my necro since lvl 7 and that picture isnt of the one at the newbie log in nek. I dunno about the one pictured, but the other one isnt lvl 15. its more like lvl 3-5.
I started seeing these scouts today at the newbie log. They con green to my level 8 SK. I noticed that they attack other mob's with spells. They also have no drop items such as woven grass amulet, matted halfling hide and halfling skull.
