Location

Hytbold is a settlement located within the Sutcrofts in East Rohan. [57.6S, 56.3W]

Hytbold was recently burned down in an attack by Orcs from the East Wall. Fastred has sent you to lead the effort to rebuild the town.

Deeds

There are numerous deeds associated with the rebuilding of Hytbold.

Reputation

If you finished every quest in Eastern Rohan while leveling up, you should have already reached the following reputation standings:

Note: The quest [80] Speaking the Truth rewards no reputation, while its alternative [80] Inhild's Wish rewards 900 reputation. It may also be possible to get a little more reputation if you complete the quest [80] Leader of the Nink-hai or its alternative [80] The Prisoner Returns.

This means to reach Kindred standing with every faction, you'll need a total of 144,700 reputation. It will take 25 days to do this, assuming you do five quests for Aiding the Eastemnet each day and don't "waste" any reputation on factions that are already at Kindred standing.

Daily quests in each region can provide reputation and cut the days to Kindred standing down to 12 days:

If you intend to rebuild Hytbold completely, you will have no problem reaching Kindred with every faction by the time you finish. However, another option is to use Item:Small Reputation Acceleration Tome to reach kindred with some factions even before you reach level 84, making many more quests available, so that rebuilding can take a much shorter time.

A note about Token costs to complete the rebuilding quests: Originally, most quests cost 5 or 10 Tokens of Hytbold to complete. All quests now cost 1 token to complete. Since many of the available rebuilding quests are gated by Ally and Kindred reputation with the various factions, there may well be times when no rebuilding quests are available, while you continue to do the daily quests to gain the reputation to unlock them.

Quests

The quest Aiding the Eastemnet enables you to complete up to five quests that are located all over East Rohan:

All of them reward 1200 reputation for the faction of one of the four areas and 10 Tokens of Hytbold, which are used to barter for rewards or rebuild parts of Hytbold. See Hytbold Quests for an overview of all quests.

Once the town is completely rebuilt, the story of Hytbold culminates in the Witan.

Upon completion of the rebuilding of Hytbold one of these three quests will be available:

  • [85] Treason Exposed - This quest concludes the story of the murder in Cliving if you chose Eldora as the most likely suspect.
  • [85] Treason Revealed - This quest concludes the story of the murder in Cliving if you chose Wigfugol as the most likely suspect.
  • [85] Treason Uncovered - This quest concludes the story of the murder in Cliving if you chose Swithorne as the most likely suspect.
