You say, 'Hail Lorekeeper Einar'

Lorekeeper Einar says 'Greetings to you. I seek one who has chosen the path of monkhood. What do you call yourself?'

You say, 'I call myself a Monk.'

Lorekeeper Einar says, 'Good. I had hoped you were one. I had heard that as a seeker of the way you are in constant training to push yourself to your physical and mental limits. It is an admirable quality and I wish to aid you. I will provide you with a cap, a tunic, sleeves, bracers, gloves, leggings and boots.'

You say, 'What bracers?'

Lorekeeper Einar says, 'For the bracers, I will require an eroded leather bracelet as well as three crushed flame emeralds. Return to me when you find such things.'

Upon turning in the items:

Lorekeeper Einar smiles warmly as he hands you your reward. 'You have done well, ______.'

For those that still do these quests note that MQ doesn't seem to work anymore.

At least not by a Rogue (chain class) with ally dain faction. It may work with another leather wearing class.

That is correct. I tried to MQ the monk wrist for my little monk using my SK. Both had maxxed faction. "Lorekeeper Einar doesn't appear interested in anything from a shadowknight."

Not for certain but there may be a way around it with shrouds, as i helped a friend get his lvl 8 warrior his MQ bp with my mage as war shroud. (it didn't work as a magician) Tho i don't know if it has to be exact class specific. Perhaps war shroud would work for any plate class? worth a try on a junk piece i imagine. Good luck!

Shrouds would work to get around it, but it is class specific. So for this MQ, the shroud would have to be a monk. As of now, though, there is no monk shroud. :-(

The faction ladder looks as follows:

Scowling = KOS
Threateningly = KOS
Dubious
Apprehensive
Indifferent
Amiable
Kindly
Warmly
Ally

Check out this link for a very good overview on the subject:
http://www.therunes.net/faction.htm

- All races start out as Dubious in Thurgardin, humans as well as Iksar. This also means that Dwarf or any other illusions wont change your faction (unless you found out a way to cast "Illusion; Frost Giant" on yourself", which im sure would be pretty KOS)

- To do the quest you will need "Kindly" faction to the quest giver.
Simply put; If he talks to you and informs you what items he need, that means you can do the quest.

- If you're doing the quest together with someone else (MQ), you will BOTH need the appropriate faction.

- The phrase he wants to hear is: "I call myself a monk", that should make him talkative.

Note: Its a very nice item, you will prolly bag it pretty soon but unless you get another item with similar effect, this item will stay in your bag instead of end up in the bank with most other items. Get it, its worth it !

Good write up, but you've probably got a few unsuspecting druids killed hehe. Wolf form will drop your faction considerably. I am ally to thurgadin and wolf form drops my faction to kindsly
Drops in entrance area

For those discussing armour drops on giants soloable by monks. (Illia has appareantly turned off the ability to reply in this forum)

Entry tunnel mobs DO drop quest armour pieces but it is WAY more rare then, say, in arena.
We had a chain chest piece drop off of one of the wolf guys in the first little slope (coming from WL side) a few weeks ago.

What is the faction needed ? Kindly, warmly, or allied ? I really wanna do this quest, but I don't want to loose 3 Flame Emeralds because my faction was too low. I spent hours last night getting a good faction. I'm at warmly now, but I want to make sure that I don't get shafted.

For the guys crying about how this bracer sucks to wear at lvl 45ish or somthing like that its not about the stats on this particular bracer ITS THE EFFECT, what monk would want a serp (pos) bracer rather than a bracer that summons pouch of quelious?

Sneak makes you indifferent to mobs. Its only useful with quest npcs if your faction is worse than indifferent and that the quest is doable at indifferent.
Warmly or better

True.... I'd just like to make one correction....

Change "Kill any giant" to "Kill any giant approximately 200000 times"

These are EXTREMELY rare drops
Which giants?
# Mar 12 2002 at 3:50 PM Rating: Default
Okay, what kind of giants are we talking here? the nice lvl 55+ ones that can summon you etc... protectors of zek, clerics of zek.... all those nice guys, or are we talking enterance guards that a 58 monk shouldn't have a problem killing... even the ones that are light/low dark blue.
RE: Which giants?
# Dec 04 2002 at 6:03 AM Rating: Decent
They drop off mobs much easier than the protectors of Zek, etc., but I've never seen a drop off the entrance mobs. I think you have to get to the actually town or one of the other camps before you will actually see drops.
