Contact Kogna and Guntrik in the warriors guild of Oggok. You can talk to Kogna first and tell him you are a mighty warrior of the guild, he will mention something about the Noble Hunters of Humans and Elves, but you can skip this part and go directly to Guntrik who is also in the warrior guild hall.

You say, 'Hail, Guntrik'

Guntrik says 'Mmmph!! Who you? Oh, you _____. You supposed to be promising Craknek. Me need you. There bad things in swamp. You want [help Crakneks] or you [want Guntrik bash your face]!!?'

If you want Guntrik to bash your face he will oblige. And he hits VERY hard...

You say, 'me wanna help crakneks'

If your Craknek Warriors faction is indifferent or better Guntrik says 'Go to swamps. Find noble hunters of humans and elves. All have house crests. Return to me and I give things. If you find special item says where hunters sleep, give to me. If meat founded then give to Clurg's cook. She make fine stew and give coins for meat.'

Note that you need Amiable faction for Guntrik to accept your crests.

The nobles are easy to find. They tend to hang out right in front of Guk and terrorize the newbies in Innothule Swamp. They are around levels 14 - 17.


Returning a crest will get you a random item such as a bronze axe, and occasionally even a nice item (such as a Crude Stein).

Guntrik says 'One less trouble. Hunhuh!! You do good work. Keep up. Remember to bring any special things to Guntrik. Here junk for good work. Go away now.'

Your faction standing with Craknek Warriors has been adjusted by 15.
Your faction standing with Clurg has been adjusted by 2.
Your faction standing with Green Blood Knights has been adjusted by -2.
You receive 8 gold from Guntrik.

Rewards:
Bronze Two Handed Hammer
Bronze Two Handed Sword
Bronze Two Handed Battle Axe

Guntrik asks above: " If you find special item says where hunters sleep, give to me."

Some of the nobles drop "tattered patchment" (this one not yet in zam db). If you read it, this is a flier for Drinn's Inn in Rathe Mountains.

Turn in the "tattered parchment":

Guntrik says, 'Ooh! This where hunters stay. You must go to Rathe Mountains and find Drinn's Inn. Kill all. Bring owners' scalps back and me give good junk. You get more warriors to help. Say Guntrik command them. You will need all help you get.'
Your faction standing with Craknek Warriors has been adjusted by 2.
Your faction standing with Clurg has been adjusted by 1.
Your faction standing with Green Blood Knights has been adjusted by -1.

Go kill both owners (Sven Drinn and Philicia Drinn) and return both scalps:

Guntrik says, 'What! This just one. Paper say there two owners. Me give you fist in face if you don't scalp other owner.'
Guntrik says, 'You some great warrior. Crakneks proud. Take reward. You show us you great. Great Crakneks we need.'
Your faction standing with Craknek Warriors has been adjusted by 20.
Your faction standing with Clurg has been adjusted by 2.
Your faction standing with Green Blood Knights could not possibly get any worse.

And I received an Ogre War Maul



NOTE: You get negative faction hits with humans for killing the nobles. You can raise your faction with the Lizard meat, and lizard tail quests.

If you find any High Elf Meat or Human Meat, give it to Chef Dooga.

I never received a Crude Stein as a reward.

Guntrik will give the quest text at Indifferent faction but will not except the Noble's Crest until Amiably.
Kogna did not seem to have anything to do with this quest.

I killed the Nobles inside the Inn in Rathe Mountains.
Respawn time was 6M30S after being killed.
Despawn time was 48S for most Nobles, about 3M30S for Tann & Rell.

Is located in Ogguk in the Warrior guild hall at /loc 26, 72, -26. He is on the Find listing for the zone.

He /cons dubious to my troll but does give the quest text as listed here on alla:

Guntrik says 'Mmmph!! Who you? Oh, you Lias. You supposed to be promising Craknek. Me need you. There bad things in swamp. You want [help Crakneks] or you [want Guntrik bash your face]!!?'

His response to me for [help crakneks] is to tell me off. So I need more faction. He wouldn't take a noble crest from me presently.

Inside one of the inns in Rathe Mountains at LOC pos3940, neg1370 (near hill giant area / paladim camp) a string of these nobles is perpetually cycling. One of the NPCs spawns, if left unagro'd for a couple minutes it despawns and is immediately replaced with another NPC. Cycle is random, the namers do not appear to spawn in any recognizable pattern. The namers include:

Fandl Arathin
Gwynn Marthank
Hogus Durmas
Jars Legola
Jyle Windstorm
Peltin Funter
Rell Ostodl
Sir Edwin Motte
Sylp Tyanathin
Tann Cellus
Zepin Winsle

I assume these were all the Nobles that used to spawn in Innothule just outside Guk (before the whole Guktan/Troll war). Apparently relocated to Rathe afterwards. Seems they all drop Noble's Crests, and can also drop flesh used in the HEHE Meat quest.

Legola attacked me while I was traveling between PoK book and Guk entrance. He dropped "a Noble's Crest".

I had some Noble's Crests banked from way back when before the frogs took over. I just tried turning them in and had Guntrik hand them back to me, saying "I have no need for this item, you can have it back" ... which should mean the quest has been removed.

I've been around the swamp for a while, and I have never seen the Nobles...does anyone know exactly where they are at? Besides the guards at the 'hand' and the poisoned Froglok, I haven't seen anyone yet. The post says they are easy to find, but i have yet to see them in the swamp. Anyone else have this prob?
RE: Nobles
# Jan 05 2004 at 7:10 AM Rating: Decent
i agree. The Nobles have not been anywhere to be found in weeks, as far as I can tell. I suppose they are not spawning at present.

This quest died with the takeover of the swamp by Frogs. Nobles were meant to kill newbie Trolls.
crude stien
# Mar 05 2003 at 1:54 PM Rating: Decent
Like someone said opal encrusted is 25 cha and it isn't lore so just get those instead of wasting time on the crude stien
Crude Stein
# Jun 14 2002 at 5:15 PM Rating: Default
Crude Steins sell for about 65pp to other people, but I found a merchant near the entrance of Oggok selling them for about 10-11pp
RE: Crude Stein
# Aug 22 2002 at 8:42 AM Rating: Decent
Opal Encrusted Stein give 25 cha, are tinker/enchanter made and cost like 60-100 pp...
they are no lore, and either primary or secondary :)
RE: Crude Stein
# Dec 14 2002 at 2:16 PM Rating: Decent
Actually, just a small correction here: Opal Encrusted Steins are made with Pottery and require no tinkeing, but you do need to consult with an enchanter for the Enchanted clay required to make them.

Bouncer Hurd

Bouncer Hurd drops the stein.
When in Feerrott I'm always sure to kill him as revenge for him killing my lvl 20 magician and knocking him back to lvl 19.

I already have a stein on me so I leave it on the corpse and give a shout out to whoever may want it so if yer hanging out in Feerrott on Cazic Thule and you hear a shout about the stein feel free to come loot it.
Anyone get a Crude Stein?

Has anybody done this quest recently and received a Crude Stein as a reward? I turned in 21 noble crests, got my faction to 'kindly considers', and all I've ever gotten are three types of bronze weapons (spear, two-handed axe, two-handed hammer). The +15 Charisma would be *very* useful as I start my blacksmithing career, but I've now wasted about 15 hours killing nobles and wonder if I could have just made a bunch of money during that time to offset the charisma.

Can anyone tell me how often they get the stein from this quest? Thanks.
COST!

Yes How much does a Crude Stein sell for?

Jyle (the HE Pally in full plate) is the weakest of the nobles, next is the HE in leather, human male,and a female (she drops a bow and dual weilds on occasion). Then there is that Dorf, The baddest is that Erudite Deepwater Knight lady
