Zamel - Endric - Guard Elron

[BWStripes]

A quest from Qeynos that you could turn the same drop into 3 different NPCs and get a reward. Sorry if this isn't the required form, I didn't want 3 threads for 'one' quest.

I know these quests aren't rocket science, but they seem to lack polish in the PEQ release, and I used to use them a lot. My goal, ultimately, is to write up my 8th coldain ring quest - appeasing a need to have 60+ mobs beat each other up More on that project later.

WARNING: Will Overwrite PEQ quest which just responds to hails.

#Description: The point of this quest is to locate the child. Sadly, she has been eaten by a viscious (or is that viscous?) gel cube from the Qeynos Sewers.
#You randomly find the remains of her bloodied dress on Cuburt. This was a boon to low level int casters as the reward was randomly (I recall one in 5 ish) a +3 int earring.
#Personal note: EQEmu spawn/drop rate on the dress from Cuburt is awful, compared to live, so I have upped the "good" reward to 35% chance.
#Other NPCs that you can hand the dress into: Zamel, South Qeynos; Endric, South Qeynos

Very nice work!

I am going check them out and add them to my quests. Yes, don't worry about the earlier quests they were unfinished and/or broken for sure. I think one of the guards just had some placeholder text. But, they are done now

[Angelox]

BWStripes;
Hope you don't mind us adding your quests to the ax_classic database, cause we are!
Thanks a lot for your work - very nice to see activity in this area again.

[BWStripes]

Thanks Angelox, I'm flattered, but it is what they are made for - everyone to use! I have a lot of free time as I'm unemployed right now, so I'm passing time writing quests up and tinkering with SQL. Testing some now, so more to follow shortly....

[cavedude]

I added this quest to PEQ's repo as well, thank you!
