You must complete the Vah Shir Citizenship quest before doing this. Rytan may be found in the southwest corner of Shar Vahl, at -400, +400. Note that the early part of this overlaps with part of the rogue progressive quests.

You say, 'Hail, Rytan'

Rytan says 'Hello ______, I trust all is well with you today. Come in and have a look around, just let me know if you see anything you like. By the way, I am in need of the assistance of an official Shar Vahl citizen. If you know of any please send them my way.'

You say, 'I am a citizen.'

Rytan says 'Wonderful! Please, show me your acrylia slate and I'll disclose my errand.'

Give him your Acrylia Slate of Shar Vahl. You get the slate back along with Rytan's Bag, a 6-slot SMALL container.

Rytan says 'Here's my dilemma, I am low on darts to sell and I need to replenish my supply. I simply cannot break away from the store so I require your help. Fill this bag with xakra teeth and return the sealed bag to me. With those teeth I can make six darts and I'll give you three.'

Head back down to the pit and collect 6 x Xakra tooth off A Xakra Larva. Combine them in the bag to craft Rytan's Sealed Bag. Give this to Rytan.

Rytan says 'Here are the three darts I promised you and a seal of mine. I need more darts desperately, so show me your acrylia slate to take another bag and fill it as you are able. Collect four of my seals and show them to me. I will reward you by revealing my method of dart construction.'

You gain experience!!

You receive 3 x Xakra Tooth Darts and a Seal of Rytan. Repeat the bag fills three more times (get another bag by giving him your slate again). Hand him 4 x Seal of Rytan.

Rytan says 'I thank you for your continued assistance, ______. Here is a fletching tool that will enable you to fashion xakra tooth darts. You will first need to acquire a grimling skeletal femur and place it in a fletching kit with the tool. This will result in three bone shafts. Place a bone shaft, a xakra tooth and this tool in the fletching kit to make a dart. When your fletching skill no longer increases by making these darts you may give me your crafting tool and I will help you to upgrade it.'

You gain experience!!

You receive a Xakra Dart Crafting Tool. Go back to the pit and hunt A Grimling Skeleton and more of A Xakra Larva. Loot a Skeletal Grimling Femur from the skeleton and more Xakra teeth from the larvae. Combine 1 x Xakra Dart Crafting Tool + 1 x Skeletal Grimling Femur in a fletching kit to craft 3 x Grimling Bone Shaft, trivial 36 (you get the tool back on success or failure). Combine 1 x Grimling Bone Shaft + 1 x Xakra Dart Crafting Tool + 1 x Xakra tooth in a fletching kit to craft 1 x Xakra tooth dart, trivial 46 (you get the tool back on success or failure). Once the darts have become trivial, give Rytan your Xakra Dart Crafting Tool.

Rytan says 'I assume you are ready to make more challenging darts. Very well, attach this shaft to your crafting tool in a fletching kit and you will be able to make grimling fang darts. Keep in mind that once this is done you will lose the ability to craft xakra tooth darts. When the grimling fang darts become trivial you may wish to upgrade your tool again by giving me the grimling dart crafting tool.'

You receive your Xakra Dart Crafting Tool back, as well as a Crafting Tool Shaft Attachment. Combine both in a fletching kit to craft a Grimling Dart Crafting Tool, no-fail. The Grimling Dart Crafting Tool can be used to craft Grimling Bone Shafts like the Xakra Dart Crafting Tool, but may not be used to craft Xakra tooth darts.

You say, 'What grimling fang darts?'

Rytan says 'A grimling fang combined with a bone shard will make a dart slightly better than the xakra tooth dart, which will also sell for slightly more.'

You say, 'What grimling fang?'

Rytan says 'The grimlings are the beings who attack our people around the Acrylia mines. They have the ability to use magic against us. Be careful if you wish to travel north. We have been waging war in that area.'

Head back into the pit and kill A Grimling Runt to loot a Grimling Fang. Combine 1 x Grimling Bone Shaft + 1 x Grimling Fang + 1 x Grimling Dart Crafting Tool in a fletching kit to craft a Grimling Fang Dart, trivial 62 (you get the tool back on success or failure). When you're ready to move on from making Grimling Fang Darts, give your Grimling Dart Crafting Tool to Rytan.

Rytan says 'Your skill is increasing rapidly, ______. Here is a hook to place on the end of your crafting tool that will enable you to fashion rockhopper talon darts. Once the tool is modified it will not be able to make other types of darts. When creating rockhopper talon darts becomes trivial to you, feel free to give it to me for another upgrade.'

You receive your Grimling Dart Crafting Tool back, as well as a Crafting Tool Hook Attachment. Combine both in a fletching kit to craft a Rockhopper Dart Crafting Tool, no-fail. The Rockhopper Dart Crafting Tool can be used to craft Grimling Bone Shafts like the Xakra Dart Crafting Tool and Grimling Dart Crafting Tool, but may not be used to craft Xakra tooth darts or Grimling Fang Darts.

You say, 'What rockhopper talon darts?'

Rytan says 'Rockhopper talon darts are slightly better than grimling fang darts and will sell for a little more. The hooked dart crafting tool and a rockhopper foot will yield one of these darts.'

Go into Shadeweaver's Thicket or Hollowshade Moor and kill "a rockhopper" to loot the rare Rockhopper Foot. It's LORE (and NO DROP), so you'll have to combine as you go. Combine 1 x Rockhopper Foot + 1 x Rockhopper Dart Crafting Tool in a fletching kit to craft 3 x Rockhopper Talon Dart, trivial 82 (you get the tool back on success or failure). When you are done making these, give your Rockhopper Dart Crafting Tool to Rytan.

Rytan says 'Here is a special handle to attach to your crafting tool. This is the final improvement to your tool and will enable you to craft owlbear feather darts. These darts are superior to even the rockhopper darts and are magical. Take your modified tool and combine it with an owlbear feather in your fletching kit. May your new skill serve you well, ______.'

You get your Rockhopper Dart Crafting Tool back, as well as a Crafting Tool Handle Attachment. Combine both in a fletching kit to craft an Owlbear Dart Crafting Tool, no-fail. You may combine 1 x Owlbear Dart Crafting Tool + 1 x Owlbear Feathers (dropped by owlbears in Hollowshade Moor and Paludal Caverns) in a fletching kit to craft 3 x Owlbear Feather Dart, trivial unknown but > 120 and <= 139 (you get the tool back on success or failure).

As Rytan said, the quest stops here.

I am doing this quest on my now 13 Vah Shir Bard. I am also doing the whole Shar Vahl 5-class quest but with no idea whether I can succeed. Has anyone done this and got to the end? I should be most grateful for any helpful comments and please forgive my ignorance!

You may ask yourself, why in this day and age would someone bother with this quest.....crazy tradeskillers? Anyway, I created a Vah Shir and did this quest in order to get the Owlbear Dart Crafting Tool and I found this particular quest documentation to be annoying to go through. In case you're another nut like me and want an endless supply of quills for your real estate creations, here's a more concise summary:

You must first complete Vah Shir Citizenship and get that Acrylia Slate of Shar Vahl.

Find Rytan, he's on the find functionality as a fletching vendor.

Hand him your Acrylia Slate of Shar Vahl

He hands you a six slot container, but you're going to want a lot more bag space available and you'll eventually need a fletching kit too.

Head down to what some people seem to refer to as "the pit", I found it easiest to go towards the shadeweaver thicket zone line, but at the end of the bridge, turn left and run down the mountain (this is also how I got back up).

Kill Xakra Larva until you loot at least 24 Xakra Teeth.

Go back to Rytan, put six xakra teeth in Rytan's bag and combine.

Hand him the bag. He will give you a few darts and a seal, keep the seal

Hand him your Acrylia Slate to obtain another bag and repeat the last two steps three more times until you have a total of 4 Rytan's Seal.

Hand him the 4 Rytan's Seal to obtain the Xakra Dart Crafting Tool

Once your skill is at least 46, hand him the Xakra Dart Crafting Tool and he'll hand it back to you with a Crafting Tool Shaft Attachment.

Combine the Xakra Dart Crafting Tool and the Crafting Tool attachment in a fletching kit to make a Grimling Dart Crafting Tool.

Once your skill is at least 62, hand him the grimling dart crafting tool and he'll hand it back to you with a Crafting Tool Hook Attachment

Combine the Grimling Dart Crafting Tool with the Crafting Tool Hook Attachment in a fletching kit to make a Rockhopper Dart Crafting Tool.

Once your skill is at least 82, hand him the Rockhopper Dart Crafting Tool and he'll hand it back to you with a Crafting Tool Shaft Attachment

Combine these two items in a fletching kit and you'll receive the Owlbear Dart Crafting Tool.

You do NOT need to make these darts recipes to skill up. You can stand right there at him and make Class 1 Bone point arrows to get to 68 and Class 3 bone point arrows to get to 82.
