Bandit Sashes

|
At the close of Chesgard's previous quest, Temple Blankets, Tukk mentions that Chesgard offers a bounty for bandit sashes.
You say, 'What Karana bandits?' Chesgard Sydwen says 'In the Plains of Karana can be found the [Karana bandits]. They plague our followers and dare to use the name of the Rainkeeper as a title. For this, Karana commands their deaths. I have a bounty for every returned bandit sash, collectible by members only. For clerics, Gehna has a bounty on binder spectacles.' Upon hand-in of a Bandit Sash: Chesgard Sydwen says 'Good work, knight! The Karana bandits have been plaguing the Rainkeeper's flock for some time. Take this as a small reward for your devotion. Continue the fight against the Karana bandits. Ahh.. I wish [Cheslin] were equally skilled.' Your faction standing with Knights of Thunder has been adjusted by 20. Your faction standing with Bloodsabers has been adjusted by -20. Your faction standing with Priests of Life has been adjusted by 15. Your faction standing with Guards of Qeynos has been adjusted by 15. You gain experience!! You receive 2 silver from Chesgard Sydwen. You receive 8 gold from Chesgard Sydwen. You also receive a random bronze weapon or Round Shield. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I'm not replying, because i guess everyone should know if they don't. Chesgard is under Knights of Thunder faction, if that helps...

The Stein of Moggok isnt the epic. If you dont believe me, think of it this way. Would Verant have every other class do their epic around level 50-60 while we enchanters do ours at 12? If you want to re-raise faction try just killing bandits for the faction til you arent kos, then turn in their sashes.

Not neccesarily talking about moggok..
Epic requires faction with the plaguebringers (Reania Jukle in qeynos catacombs), and killing the fishie is good for that if you worship a good god.
If agnostic, illussion human and collab will do the trick.

Can anyone tell me what faction i need with Chesgard to be able to turn the sashs in? All of a sudden I am Kos with him and I have 22 sashs on me that I can't do anything with. Temple of Life and Guards judge me aimiably again from rabid pelts. I thought that would help with Chesgard, but he still scowls ready to attack me. Thanks for any info

As an ogre warrior, I have killed literally thousands of gnolls in blackburrow. My faction can't possible get any better with: Qeynos Guards, Qeynos Merchants, Jagged Pine Tree Folk (Druids), and one other class (I can't remember which at the moment). But one charactor I always have to watch out for is Roesager Thuston. He is a paladin but he usually hangs out in North Qeynos. Being KOS to this guy, I thought I should bring up my faction with the palidins so I could visit Qeynos without having to consider every NPC in the distance to see if they were one of the few who hate me. I had some bandit sashes in the bank for quite a while but I couldn't turn them in at the Paladins guild because Chesgard was always scowling at me every time I peered around the corner. Every time I went to the bank, I checked the /who to see if there was someone in town who could disguise me. One day, there was a high level druid in South Qeynos and I paid him to cast Greater Wolf Form on me. I ran and took a look at Chesgard and he was infifferant to me. I ran to the bank and got out the 20 bandit sashes I had stashed there and gave them to Chesgard and he gave me faction and a good item for every one. I sold the items to the merchant standing right next to him. (lucky thing for you weaklings who can't carry 20 bronze weapons, because you won't be able to move). I then ran away from the palidins and clicked off wolf form and suddenly he acted all warm and friendly to me... a big, ugly, evil ogre. And what is more, Roesager Thuston stopped whacking me.
The gem of this story is that you can wolf form in Qeynos to fix faction. However, don't even think about doing that in Halas.

Where can i get the most money off the sash's? most of the people in the town sell the bronze weapons around 1 to 2pp. That seems low. and can you get armor? or is it all weapons
On E'Ci server, turning in the sashes gives one of four different items (all worth at least 1pp and up to 3pp), not to mention the gold and silver and nice experience boost.
The four items I've gotten are a bronze mace, some warclub, a shield, and a bronze hammer I think.

sometimes i kill a bandit and get various scrools.
what do i do with them?

I believe the scrolls you're refering to are the various newspapers of different cities around Norrath. I've gotten some called the Qeynos Times or something like that. They seem to be for a quest, as they are worthless to vendors.
7 posts
The newspapers aren't for any quest that I know of, they're simply a rarely-updated way for Verant to put some storytelling in the game. Read the papers sometimes.. back in the fall when the plague in the Karanas was cured, all the papers had a bit piece about it, and the stories were worded to slant with however the city in question felt about Qeynos, Bertoxxulus and humans in general. It was pretty funny. :>

I camped the two bandit campes near the ogre spawns in WK for about 4 hours, ending up with 35 sashes. The faction just from killing those bandits had boosted me from apprehensive to amiable with qeynos guards. Once i'd turned in all the sashes, I had also moved to warmly from indifferent with the pally guild there, making over 100pp fromt eh bronze weapons too.
Now I can do my soulfire quest.

I am a 26th Season Rogue from the Karana server. I camped the bandit camp closest to the QH zone and the farm with bandits in it for about 2 hours, I was able to loot 18 sashes running back and forth killing bandits. After turning in the Sashes and selling all the loot I received 65pp and about 1 blue bubble of Exp. This is definetly for the money and not the experience.

I just finished camping for another 3 hours and I received 26 sashes and after turning them in and receiving all the weapons and selling them I cam out with another 85pp and 1 1/4 blue bubble of exp. I think I will do one more 3-4 hour camp so I can get a little more money. If you do a solid 12-hour camp you should be able to come out with 300pp-400pp and a yellow bubble of exp.

/boggle - I hope you're doing this for faction.
You should really go back to EF and join a mammoth group or icy orc group for another level or two. You could make about the same or better money and get exp at the same time (novel concept huh?) instead of farming greenies for 30pp/hr. After you learn how to group, you can head down to Cazic and maybe get some Ravenscale drops instead of farming to buy it.
Leave the bandits for the level 8-14ish chars this quest is designed for - the ones that get good money AND experience for it. (unless you need the faction)

Handed in 16 of these sashes last night got from 4gold all the way upto 15 gold per sash. Plus a bronze mace or a bronze warhammer, or a wooden shield. Hammer and shield sell for over 1 plat, but the mace i was getting well over 3 plat for.

this is more of a want then anything and dont have to do with this quest but is there anywhere that drops bronze armor like a quest or a monster?
Yes, there are a number of monsters throughout the world that can drop bronze armor. Just for kicks, I've outfitted my bard from head to toe in bronze armor that I looted from Drolvargs in Firiona Vie.

Due to fishy hunting, I'm kos to the Priests of Life faction (enchanter) even illusioned to human.. Think benevolence would enable me to do the quest?
Or any other Priests of Life faction quest I can do first?
Thanks a bunch,

Offer to buy moonstones from people... it'll take quite a few and you won't get high enough faction changes before becoming KOS to Corrupt Guards if you get the moonstones from the gnoll fang quest. I accidentally killed a fish one time to see what would happen and I ended up having to turn in about 30 moonstones to get back to indifferent faction (which is where I started...) Spend some time in BlackBurrow and in the arena in Qeynos asking people for their moonstones. Newbies that actually get exp from the gnoll fangs would love to sell their moonstones for 5gp a piece!
You should have had a mule killing your fish for you, or been doing a LOT of faction work between each kill. The faction hit for killing a koalindl is huge. Sometimes Rodcet Nife himself is in disguise as a koalindl, and that can be unpleasant if you are using a real character to kill the fish.
The sash quest requires Order of Thunder faction, not Priests of Life, but you've trashed that pretty well too.
It may be possible for you to work your way back into their good graces (you could turn in about a million bone chips to Lashun if you can figure out a way to get him to con indiff to you), but I suspect that you are probably just going to have to write off the paladins and clerics in Qeynos.

He's actually telling the truth about the god being the fish - either that or a GM took over the fish - the @#$% hit me for a 1000+ point nuke once and when I double checked the screen it actually said that the fish cast the spell - glad it wasn't my first time or I'd never have a Stien. :)

I collected 8 sashes in a recent camp out of the raiders. Went to Qeynos, gave them to Chesgard, got some XP and gold but NO bronze weapons. NONE!
Gave him the sah individually and 4 at a time with no difference. I'm a 15th level halfling druid. This is first time to Qeynos so only thing I can think of is not having a certain faction up to par. If so, I have no clue which one and if not I'm stumped.
Anyone have any insight?

I, being a dark elf enchantress who worships Innoruuk, with Illusion human and benevelance, guards and the paladins conned dubious to me, well after I turned in 16 sashes my faction WITHOUT an illusion was dubious! The next night I turned in 8 more (slow night in West Karana and a friggin Werewolf hampered my bounty) & I am apprehensive to them without illusion, with illusion human & benevelance, I am kindly to Chesgard! =D
When you turn in the sashes, you get a few copper up to the equivelant of a platinum piece and you get various weapons and shields, which in turn can be sold for 1 to 3 platinum, over all a great faction boosting and pocket fattening quest.

Probably going to get an argument here, but from experience the best spawn spot would be in SK, due east of the stone bridge.
Reason I say that is quite simple. There are approximately 6 to 8 spawns there and by the time you kill the last one the first one is spawning, or will in 10 seconds or so.
I play a bard as my main and when he was around lev 20 I would sit there killing the bandits until a group came up at the aviaks. Faction maxed out over that time and if I couldnt get into a group I would make a nice profit on the night. Best night was around 350 plat with 2 trips needed.
The centaur camp was also conveniently close to sell the weapons I picked up from the camp as well.

I believe you are referring here to the raiders that are due east of the bridge after the second hill along shore of the river. Being raiders I do not know if they drop sashs. I only wiped them out once so am not a good authority on whether they drop sashs or not, but they are raiders and not bandits and the one camp wipe yielded no sashs. I did go to Eastern Karanas and wipe out that camp of bandits and got a couple of sashs to turn in. Unfortunately they do not stack and being a 49 cleric I seldom get to spend much time in a town, as I average about 5 rezzes per session. Please, if I rezz you, do not insult me with the offering of coin unless you are very wealthy and simply wish to help a poor cleric. Granted it comes in handy at times to reward other players that show extreme valor and courage helping me on other corpse runs, but I am a Green Knight and as such am bond by code and honor to assist as best I can.
Speaking only of my experience on E'Ci, the raiders of North Karana do in fact drop sashes. In fact it is my opinion that this site is the best source for sash farmers due to the high spawn rate.
For low level players wanting to fight them for experience, you will need a really solid group to hold them off, let alone break camp in the first place.

My 14th level human druid can break/hold the NK camp easily. Harmony one of the middle mobs and pull whichever one you want. Make sure you are fully buffed and healed and medded for the casters though (female half-elves are druids, male half-elves are wizards). The wizards can be really tough, nuke em fast and hard.
The rest are easy. Harmony the camp, pull with Snare, Stinging Swarm just as the mob nears you. Melee and loot. I only keep up Skin Like Rock, Thistlecoat and SoW. Also Endure Fire when I pull a caster. The whole camp is dark blue, I've never gotten one higher than that. Nice xp.

Druids have an amazing camp-breaking spell at a relatively low level in Harmony. If you are a druid or can group with a druid, you'll have a better chance at breaking camp.

The highwaymen in ek now drop these too, but it's a bit of a trek if you want to go back from qeynos. Also, it seems that the proportion of sashes to bandits is lower too.. fewer sashes, more bandits.

Last night (2/2/01) was the first time I got bandit sashes off the bandits in the towers on the long run from Highhold. I've killed dozens of these guys and never a sash until now. Very slim pickings in EK.

Just a caution to enchanters regarding the new enchanter only quest that came with the last patch. You need good faction with the Blood Sabres to get part of your quest done and I have read on another site that even our really high level "be friendly" spells don't work well enough if your faction is really bad.
I hunted these from 11-14, and the money and exp I gained from handing in the sashes was very good throughout. I went from apprehensive to warmly to the guards in about 4 days of playing, and made a lot of plat in the process. If your a lowly teenager hunting around Qeynos, then this is the quest to do.

This is a great quest for anyone who is working on the Aegis of Life quest. I earned money towards buying spell components for my symbol spells and got good faction hits to boot.

any thoughts on how many bandits a troll would have to kill to become non-KOS to qeynos guards?

It took my agnostic troll warrior between 764 and 837 bandits. Running between the two bandit camps in Lake Rathe, I could kill all fourteen (8 and 6) in slightly less than the six minute spawn time. An occasional side-trip to the Ogre merchants conveniently located between the two camps kept my weight managable.

Certainly one of the best "simple quests" available. Usually, items that you just find while killing a type of mob (orc scalps, CB belts, etc) aren't worth all that much. But for 2-3 plat per sash and a sash on about 1 in 3 bandits? Tough to beat that.
