Subject: RE: [eqbards] Talies - an update


You have to talk to the Marshall in the bank in Rivervale. Ask him "am I
one with the wall". If you are you get a squad ring (lore, no drop). It
has one 80-100hp heal. You will take a big faction hit against guardians
of the veil when you get the ring (warmly to amiable). This was to keep
people from doing the quest multiple times when the ring was no-drop. Who
knows why they left in now...that's Verant. Recharge the ring in the
cleric's guild from Hendri Mruble(sp?). Make sure you use CCC on her prior
to trying to get the ring recharged, she has been known to take it and keep
it..."I will not help beings like you". You have to kill tons of goblins
to get your faction high enough. 4-5 hours for 2 days isn't even a drop in
the faction bucket for this.
