Is this the simplest quest in EQ? Can't imagine one simpler other than:

Quest: Hail the Quest-giver.

You: Hail, Quest-Giver!"

You have completed the quest Hail the Quest-giver.

Is there no longer a Kerra Isle faction hit for this quest? Nevermind, I see now that it's for killing the kerrans.

Kobold molars is for DW knights. Bone chips and shaman paws Quellious. I think killing the necro at Tox Docks might raise Quell. faction but don't remember to well.

I made a mule to help with this. The catfisher will spawn and run around behind the bridge, often ending up hovering above the bridge. A quick pull back to the zone allows it to be killed by a higher level char. He isn't hard, it is everything else around him that is the problem...

When the tail is returned to Vynon you get very little xp, pocket change and the following faction:

+PeaceKeepers, +HighCouncilofErudin, -Heretics, -Heretics

You need to be at least amiable to complete this quest.
Tail
# Jul 27 2000 at 6:13 PM Rating: Decent
The tail is dropped off the catfisher that is often found hovering above a fence to the left just after crossing the bridge. He is low level, but he is always surrounded by higher level mobs. You probably need to be 16+ to get this reliably. In addition, it is no-drop. Probably your best bet is to have someone of a higher level kill him but let you loot. Don't know what the factions are for getting this to the paladin because you have to be at least amiable to get the quest in the first place... Consider this fairly impossible because of inability to get faction with the temple of light.

Killing Heretic Prophets does not increase PeaceKeepers (Temple of Quellious) faction, which is what is needed to do this quest; it raises faction with the DeepwaterKnights (the other temple in Erudin) and with the three caster guilds.

The main way to raise PeaceKeepers faction is to do quests in the Temple of Quellious. If your faction is too low to get any of their quests you may be out of luck.

if you want good faction with the peacekeepers turn in kobold molars to tiam khonsir at the deepwater temple, or give the priest just outside of the peacekeepers temple poachers heads

Not so sure about that, I have been turning Molars for 8 levels, have gotten tons of ringmail armor, but I am still indifferent to the temple of Quellios. It might be because I am a follower of Prexus.
