Drunkard's Stein  

 

Started the quest with 0 alcohol tolerance, but was able to get drunk enough on the spot to get the quest. 50 is the magic number.

Had to do a lot of tweaking on the song timing, 50 all the way doesn't work. I did a pause 20 first line, pause 65 second, pause 15 third, pause 40 fourth, pause 40 fifth, and then hit the second hot key right after his smile for the 5th line.

This quest is only available during the Anniversary Periods (April plus a few days on either end). If the anniversary isn't going on, then you'll need to wait until the next one begins.

There might also be a level restriction on this. Level 30 is required to trigger the quest. Someone as low as level 27 has been able to be a group member and still get the quest. It checks the level spread of the group and will not present the quest if the spread is too great. A level 94 was not able to trigger the quest with a level 56 in the group, so a spread of 38 levels was too great.

Step 1: One person in the group needs to trigger the task. They will need a high (not sure how high) alcohol tolerance. Have them buy two stacks* of Ogre Swill from Brewmaster Berina in PoK (behind the small bank). Give one stack to Brasse (right nearby Berina). [editor's note: this was written back when a stack was only twenty]

Step 2: After giving the stack to Brasse, start drinking some of the swill. Drink at least four or five of them. Then after drinking each one, hail her. Eventually, once you're both drunk enough, she'll offer you the stein quest. Click 'Stein', from her response, and then click 'Help me'.

Step 3: Everyone in the group gets the task. Now go to the Guild Lobby and hail the magus (between the doors to the Guild Halls). Click 'Nedaria's Landing' from her response. You'll port to Nedaria's Landing.

Step 4: Once in Nedaria's Landing, find the Magus there (in the same camp where you port in, just ahead and to the left of where you zoned in). Hail this magus, and click 'Abysmal Sea' in his response. You'll port to the Abysmal Sea.

Step 5: Click your Find button to locate Galdorin Visigothe. If he doesn't show up on in your find window, search for Dray Cuves instead, as they are close to each other. Follow the yellow ribbon that shows up. You'll go out the room you ported into, down the stairs to the right and then in the next set of doors. Galdorin will be the bard in the middle of that room. Target him.

Step 6: Select and copy (cntl-c) each of these lines, click the chat line in one of your EQ Client chat windows, and paste (cntl-v) them into it and hit return.


After you've pasted (and said) all six lines, hold down your control key and press the up-arrow key six time. This will scroll back to the first line of the song (My stinky stein...).

Step 7: (this is where it might get a little tricky) Target and watch Galdorin. Eventually, he'll start strumming his lute and then a few seconds later he'll start singing a song. Once he starts strumming, ready yourself to hit your carriage return key. If he sings the matching song, hit the return key and quickly the control and six up arrow keys to ready the next line of the song. Rinse and repeat for each of the six lines. Timing is crucial, so don't waste any of it. If things go well, he'll smile at you with each line. It doesn't matter if other people are there singing along with you, so you don't need to take turns. Besides, the more drunks singing together the funner things get.

Step 8: If all went well, this stein will show up on your cursor. Put it in your inventory and right-click on it. A few seconds later, you'll be back in PoK ready to go about your regular business.
