Novice Quests (Level 1+, 100 Faction)Edit

For all continents other than your home continent, you will have to complete the continental style (AKA novice quest) in order to learn their recipes.

Note: Using the race change potion to change you race from one from one continent to another has been known to cause problems with the novice crafting flags.

Quest: "A True Kojani Crafter"

Go to Ca'ial Brael to Waltay Bajan, the Blacksmith Instructor there (located in the House with orange windows near the crafting plateau and get the quest called " A True Kojani Crafter ".

He will then send you to Veenax Garrison near Martok to get inspired yet again.

Fastest way there is to rift to Wildgrowth Forest and rent a flying mount there. Fly Northnortheast to Veenax Garrison on the northern side of Martok.

Enter Veenax Garrison and go around the center building. On the back side you'll find a cauldron you can study, so do that and be inspired enough to know pyrite ingots and spear heads now!

Return to Ca'ial Brael, craft those ingots and spear heads, and welcome to the initiate Kojan world and yet again a bunch of new recipes, in case you haven't done any other iniate quests.

Hint: If you got to 400 faction in Kojan as an outsider, you probably did so in Tawar Galan, which rewards 10 faction for each workorder for Ca'ial Brael and Martok. If not, 21 one piece WO are done quite fast.

Notes
Blackmsith qalian initiate inspiration

I talked to the BS trainer, Valer Thanul, in Ahgram after turning lvl31, which then gave me the quest called " A True Qalian Crafter ". In it she told me to go to Pankor Zhi to get some inspirations.

Not having it on my map I mouseovered and found Pankor Zhi to be the chunk next to Hathor Zhi. So I went via Lomshir to Pankor Zhi, the actual city, where I spend the better half of an hour to search for something to inspire me, nada though. PZ is a nice place to take a stroll, at least if you're a varanjar which are KOS to nothing but Dwarves.

Anyways what you need to do is, go to Hathor Zhi entrance and travel south down the road. Stay in the valley! Go past the Bloodletter Arena to the big ruins with the wide stairs. In proximity to those (a tad east I think, but well in viewing distance) you find a burned down tent (for the outfitter intiate quest inspiration) and a handy small ballista, which will inspire you. 72547, 47456, 5097 in Pankor Zhi (-16, -10) Use it and 30secs later you get the recipes for pyrite ingot and the spear head.

Return to Ahgram, build three pyrite ingots and then the spear heads. Turn them in and congratulations to your initiate crafter's title and a s***load of new recipes.

Hint: Hathor Zhi faction can be gained by killing mobs just north of the HZ gate and Pankor Zhi faction is supposedly gained by doing diplomacy in Lomshir, which I cannot guarantee, since Pankor Zhi has no trouble with Halgarad. I also believe it's possible to get to the ballista from the Hathor Zhi Altar, where you can either evac to or ressurrect to. If you get guard or npc aggro try to get to the chunk border south to get rid of it. PZ guards won't aggro you, if you stay clear of the stairs.

Notes
Blackmsith thestran initiate inspiration

Head over to New Targonor's crafting district and talk to Godrek, the BS instructor to get "A True Thestran Crafter ".

He will send you to Konarthi Point, which is located SE of Halgarad or east of Dakhnarg. I leave it up to everyone how to get across half the continent, being lvl21 adventurer, I headed up north through Shrine of Flames, took an immediate right after entering Three Rivers chunk and followed the river through Spider Bluffs and Forest's Heart, fairly easy ride, only lvl21-24 2d-3d aggro mobs which can easily be avoided.

When you enter Leth Nurae chunk, get back on the road and head through to Veskal's Exhange and further on through Valley of Heroes. Pass south through Halgarad once you reach it, and turn left at the bottom of the hill, follow the road all the way to Konarthi Point.

In Konarthi Point locate the Finishing Taskmaster. Right behind him is a "round workspace" (disc) at -5706, -7793, 665 in Konarthi Point which will inspire you to craft pyrite ingots and pyrite spear heads. Build them and return to Godrek in New Targonor to receive your new title Initiate Blacksmith and tons of new receipes. Congratulations, Initiate Blacksmith.

Hint: For those filthy, lice infected beardwearers, commonly known as dwarves, which are not welcomed in either Halgarad or Dakhnarg, you might try to sneak yourself over the mountains to the east of Halgarad to avoid aggroed NPC's. Bypass Derogar's Post to the south, cut to the east right before Halgarad and head southwards over the mountains a bit more to the east. Good Luck. ;P You could also try to gain our favor by killing mobs east of derogars or the valley south of that.



NOTE: Sometimes the Initiate and Journeyman continental style quests DO NOT give you the recipes as they should. If you are clicking on the item for Initiate or in the right spot for Journeyman and it is not giving the recipes to you be sure to relog to desktop and back in and it should work properly. It may take a few tries if really unlucky.

Journeyman Quests (Level 41+, 500 Faction)Edit

General Note Edit

Sometimes the Journeyman continental style quests do not give you the recipes as they should when you are "inspired". If you are in the right spot for Journeyman update and it is not giving the recipes to you, be sure to relog to desktop and back in and it should work properly. It may take a few tries if really unlucky.

Quest: "The Thestran Journeyman"

Visit Grodek in New Targonor. He asks you to go to Shaletooth Tower, which is the dwarven starting area close to Bordinar's Cleft. Once you are there, he wants you to 'find inspiration' and craft what comes to mind.

When you get to Shaletooth Tower, when looking directly towrds the front door of the tower, move around to the left side of the tower and then look at the tower itself. This should result in yellow text on your screen telling you that you have been inspired. When this happens, the recipes for 'Mithril Ingot' and 'Worked Haft' will be added to your recipe book (the message telling you that they have been added does not always appear, so just check your recipe book once you see the yellow text).

The location in the Bordinar's Cleft chunk is approximately:

/loc -55836, 46905, 106458

Once you have been inspired, now you have to do some crafting.

Firstly, you need to make ten mithril ingots. If this is the first Journeyman tier quest you have done, you will have to use the 'Mithril Ingot' recipe that will have just been added to the Refining "Special Recipes" section of your recipe book. However, if you have already done one (or both) of the other continental journeyman tier quests, and you have already trained in the Refining "Normal Recipes" recipe for 'Mithril Ingot', you can use that instead. Using the normal recipe is preferred because that will give you crafting experience, whereas using the special recipe gives no experience. Either way, note that there is a large experience reward for the quest as a whole which more than makes up for that!

Then, when you have your ten ingots, you need to make five Worked Hafts (each one uses two mithril ingots). This is always a Finishing "Special Recipes" section of your recipe book. These combines do not give experience.

These crafting steps can be done anywhere. Because Shaletooth Tower is right next to Bordinar's Cleft, you could go into there to make the items, but anywhere will do.

Finally, when you have crafted the five Worked Hafts, you must travel back to see Grodek in New Targonor to hand them in. He accepts your work, removes the temporary special recipes from your recipe book, and gives you the quest rewards. You can now train (from Grodek) in the general and Thestran journeyman blacksmith recipes, up to your current level.

If this was your first journeyman tier quest completed, congratulations on officially becoming a Journeyman Blacksmith!
