HERITAGE QUEST -- An Axe from the Past (Polished Granite Tomahawk)

Level 28

=====================================

* You must speak Krombral (Giant language)
* You must have completed Little Tarby Lost ( 509, -19, 484 ) in Thundering Steppes. If Tarby is not there, you'll need to wait for him to spawn (clocked at 15 minutes)

* Mining skill of at least 90.
* Lumbering skills of at least 90 (if you choose to gather your own ingredients).
* Crafting ability to successfully complete a level 9 tradeskill combine


Speak with Obsid Boulderboom in The Thundering Steppes. ( 776, -3, 1004 )

1. Examine the Cracked Stone Hand Axe that Obsid gives you for finding his pet bear, Tarby Boulderboom.

2. Mine 10 granite pieces, an uncommon harvest from wind swept stones in The Thundering Steppes. This may take some time to complete.

    * Upon receiving your 10th piece, you will get a quest update rewarding you a pristine piece of granite and the recipe for a Granite Tomahawk. 


3. At a forge in any tradeskill center, combine the pristine granite with a piece of severed ash, a sparkling material, and the Cracked Stone Hand Axe from Obsid, creating a dull tomahawk. You have to be Artisan Level 9 at least.

4. Return to Obsid to show him the axe.

5. Sharpen the axe by killing 100 skeletons in the The Thundering Steppes.

    * Upon defeating your 100th skeleton, you will get a quest update rewarding you a Sharpened Granite Tomahawk. 


6. Return to Obsid to show him the axe.

    * Note: a timer for the next step starts as soon as you finish speaking to him. 


7. Within a one hour time limit, kill 25 Skindancer gnolls. (Various locations; ( 543, -24, 1130 ) Skindancer Sentry, Skindancer Seer, Skindancer Legionnaire, Skindancer Knight or Skindancer Defiler all give updates for this step)

8. Return to Obsid.

9. Enter the Cove of Decay and slay the The Octagorgon for its ink. Note that this giant octopus cannot be pulled out of the water, and shortly after engaging it, a Heroic group of undead will also spawn and attack.

    * Note: Once The Octagorgon is dead, consider examining the highlightable crates on the ocean floor underneath the spawn point to receive a Partially Digested Hand, one of the required items in Stiletto's Orders Intercepted.
