Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue 'I can make you a weapon that befits your great skill as a hunter, <name>, but you must steel yourself for hardship, for its tale will not be easily won. 'I will need time between each stage of the process, so do not bring me everything at once. I will first need corroded Iron Crown staves, which may be found in Angmar, and a razor-sharp claw belonging to Driftclaw, a great bear of the Misty Mountains, who dwells in the land of the giants. 'May fortune smile upon you during your hunt, <name>. It has to this point, and I know it will continue to do so.'

His claw now will be of use to me in fashioning a weapon worthy of such a hunter as you! 'It may surprise you to know that the staves you have brought are not what I seek. No, it is the corrosion of their surface that is of value. It will lend its bite to your weapon. 'There are more components to be gathered. Now you should find the eyes of worms such as dwell in Forochel and Angmar. I will also need the beaks of the dread-turtles of Angmar and the putrid fingernails of the wights in Imlad Balchorth.' Objective 3 Collect clouded worm eyes (0/20) Collect venomous dread-turtle beaks (0/5) Collect putrid fingernails (0/5) Worms may be found in Forochel and Angmar.

'You have done very well to this point, <name>, and have proven yourself a worthy hunter indeed, but your greatest challenge lies ahead. 'The final components I need to fashion you a worthy weapon lie within the dark city of Carn Dûm. That is an evil place, and within its walls you will face great danger if you choose to proceed. I need a Medallion of Passage, borne by the uruks who guard the city, and the putrid slime of Helchgam, which dwells beneath the city.' Objective 5 Collect Medallion of Passage Collect putrid slime of Helchgam Uruks guard the city of Carn Dûm in Angmar, while the vile Helchgam dwells beneath. Fenton asked you to bring him a Medallion of Passage and the putrid slime of Helchgam.
