Weligon Steelherder may be found in a small room in the back on the first floor, at -1040, -395. Requires amiable faction with the Deepwater Knights.

Weligon Steelherder judges you amiably -- he appears to be quite formidable.

You say, 'Hail, Weligon Steelherder'

Weligon Steelherder says 'Hail, ______! This is the Deepwater Temple. Here you shall find the wisdom and courage of Prexus, the Ocean Lord. I am glad to see you have an interest. Forgive me if I cut our conversation short, but I have many [Deepwater tasks] to complete.'

You say, 'What Deepwater tasks?'

Weligon Steelherder says 'We here at the Deepwater Temple must tend to the [Peacekeeper battlestaff] and the [Deepwater harpoon] as well as other duties such as [ocean protection]. There is always something we must do.'

You say, 'What Peacekeeper battlestaff?'

Weligon Steelherder says 'Every sentinel in Erudin carries a High Guard battlestaff. The creation of these weapons is the duty of the Deepwater Temple and the Temple of Divine Light. Our portion of the task is to send young members to [collect the Pearls of Odus]. These are imbedded into the staff and used to store mystical power.'

You say, 'I will collect the Pearls of Odus.'

Weligon Steelherder says 'Then venture to the harbor of Erudin. There, you shall dive into the shark-infested water and search for the Pearls of Odus. They lie upon the grounds of our waters. Fill the bag I have given you, combine it, and return it to me. Good luck.'

You receive an Empty Bag (strangely, identifies as "Zombie Flesh Bag"), a 4-slot size SMALL bag. Pearls of Odus are ground spawns underwater in the harbor of Erudin at -275, -460; -215, -475; +5, -485; +955, -620 (any other /locs?). Combine four in the bag. Note: (+955, -620) reported as being "behind zone wall" in October 2015

You have fashioned the items together to create something new!
You have fashioned Full Bag of Pearls.

Give this to Weligon.

Weligon Steelherder says 'Fine work, Deepwater Knight. You have proven yourself an excellent addition to our ranks. These shall be used to create more Peacekeeper staffs. Oh yes, I almost forgot your reward. Here you are. Now, go, and serve Prexus.'
Your faction standing with Deepwater Knights has been adjusted by 5.
Your faction standing with High Council of Erudin has been adjusted by 1.
Your faction standing with Heretics has been adjusted by -1.
You gain experience!!
You receive 9 copper from Weligon Steelherder.
You receive 14 silver from Weligon Steelherder.

The coordinates above are all good except the last one (+955, -620). While the item is there it is behind the zone wall and could not be reached. I swam around the entire harbor looking for another and eventually made my way back around to where I gathered the first few. The item had re-spawned. I would recommend just waiting for it to pop again.
On a side note I am doing this quest because he would not give me the quest for the BP. I am a HEF Bard and was able to use my charisma song to get him to amiable, but he still would not give me that particular quest - only this one. He mentioned something about "while he didn't dislike me I still needed to prove myself to the Deepwater Knights."
Hoping this will do the trick and it is some kind of succession.

I did this at level 2. The first time I got close enough to grab the pearls (got 2 of them) and ignored the shark when it aggroed (it killed me). Went back again and got two more (ignoring aggro again but this time I escaped, pathing bug, I think). Turned them in and got 10 silver, 14 copper and a small bag. I'll do it a few more times and see what else he gives out.

Started an Erudite paladin and did this quest last night at level 4. Sometimes the sand sharks aggroed on me, sometimes they didn't. When I turned them in, all I got was a belt pouch. Wasn't worth it, considering I sold a backpack to make room for the pearl bag in the first place, but my swimming skill is maxed now.

This is found easily by getting on the shuttle for boat and jumping off the East end. When you swim down you will see a Sand Shark gaurding the area. Everytime I kill him I get at least 3 shark skins and underneath him you will see a bag (which was always there, not dropped). And it is the Pearl of Odus.

Remember, always check faction first by con'ing the NPC... if you're not better than indifferent, it can prevent quest NPC from speaking with you. I usually kill mobs first that will give me at least some favorable faction (you can find out exactly what and where to kill from Illiads Beastiary link on this site), and get something to con indifferent or better to me, to attempt quest. This is the most often overlooked problem by new players who can't get NPC to respond, I'd have to say second seems to be not saying the correct words and broken quest probably last (well I think so anyway hee hee).

I never had a problem getting quests in Erudite, and I'm an elf. You just have to do small ones first. I did the Kobold molar quest, handed in like 20 of them, and they regard me amiably now, I don't see what your problem is, you have to start small ;)

How to get the quest
# Oct 20 2001 at 7:42 PM Rating: Decent
Simply talk to Weligon and follow the conversation until he says something in braskets like [peacekeeper battlestaff]. These are not his exact words, but it is something like that. I did this quest a few times at level 8, no noticable xp change, I did get a few silver and rawhide gloves each time though. And it definitely is possible to get the pearls without agroing the sharks.
What gets him to give you bag?

Have started an Erudite Paladin worshiping Prexus and can not find the key words to activate this quest. Does anyone know.

Thanks

Actually found it, have to ask about the Peacekeepers staff and then he mentions the pearls.

How do you make him give you the Quest ?

I have the pearls but can't get the bag off him.

# Jul 15 2000 at 4:14 PM Rating: Decent
I am a lvl 14 Druid, and each pearl is only guarded by one little sand shark which con's green to me at that level. there are 3 sharks and 3 pearls, and the sharks when green will not aggro. Also, it's called Pearl of Odus! not odus pearl.

Have you actually tried to kill those sharks? My level 9 rogue couldnt kill them, and they conned green to him too. They're tough for their level.
RE: UM. I think this is wrong
# Nov 05 2000 at 10:41 AM Rating: Default
Hello level 14 druid level 9 Rogue. Of coursse the 14 will have an easier time killing the sharks than the level 9 rogue. Just watch out for the hammer heads they con blue to me at 21.

# Nov 09 2000 at 4:39 PM Rating: Default
As a lvl 1 erudin paladin I built my swimming to 10 and was able to retrieve the pearls USUALLY without having agro'd the sharks. Just edge towards their tails. If you get attacked just let them hit you 2x(10dmg each) and use lay hands, while trying to swim away from them so you can easily recover your corpse. Super easy quest.
RE: UM. I think this is wrong
# Nov 26 2000 at 11:32 AM Rating: Default
I'm not sure...I haven't been able to complete it yet, not because of the sand sharks (who I haven't seen) but the other sharks (hammerheads, etc) are much too tough for me at level 10, and they attack on sight...I can't get out far enough to get to the sandsharks...

Just went and grabbed some of the pearls tonight. The trick is to find a level 4 or higher Enchanter to cast Invisibility on you. (Remember to group before the spell is cast, and then wait a few seconds before disbanding just in case the invis drops early.) When I picked up the pearls my invisibility did not drop.
Would be easy except...
# Feb 19 2001 at 4:59 PM Rating: Default
Gathering the Pearls is Easy, just cast invis on yourself... Most casters can do this, the problem is getting enough faction to begin with... I have NEVER hurt any Erudian NPC, and yet have killed 30 or so Heretics, I am human lvl 13 Mage and yet I can't get the guy to give me the dam bag! He keeps saying I am lucky he hasn't killed me already and to leave now :(, I have tried every quest possible in Erud that would raise faction and yet I am still dubious to them. BTW if you hang out around the right hand wall and go for a swim you can get the pearls without even upsetting the sharks. My suggestion if your not Erudian don't do quests on this continent it is a total waste of time.

Now you can go kill Kobalds and give the molars to someone in the paladins guild(forgot who). takes a while to get faction up though, but good money from occasional ringmail, and good XP around 10.
