Comprehensive Lore & Legend Guide:The following list has hunting locations for enemy types that are needed for the Lore & Legend quests. These are the quests that your Enemy Mastery are now tied to. The following list are locations that each of the mob types can be found to hunt.

The remaining five body parts will be body drops; you can loot them off corpses or buy them on the broker. Completing each of these quests will give you a furniture version of the quest book and a weapon you can mount on your wall, in addition to a nice amount of achievement experience.

Thank you all for the immense support thus far.I will be re-writing the Guide in a notepad and then coloring and formating more once the edit feature is up.I will also add in all the extra info that is being provided.Thanks again (back to checking out the options)

Seems the forum handle can only be changed once per day, bummer to give those options but make you wait to pick a different persona.

Formatting is going very, very slow...The dang forums double space everything.The wizziwig converter also inputs stuff that is not there, IE converting brackets into a parenthsisand greater than symbol.So the data is slowly being re-written to be easier to read, as now its a mess. (Thanks SOE)

02-14-2007, 04:56 PM

If you would like to know about the weird stuff that happens to me then listen up.The last thing I did before posting this was to try and fix the color of the Hunter/Slayer etc kill info at the bottom of the post. I changed the text to a light pink for the time being, and when I saved it, In the middle there is now an error that wasn't there before, IE.<span [I cannot control my vocabulary] font:size. anyway the forum seems to be filtering out the html it converts. (The odd thing is I had not done anything at all to that section) Also I the entire post changed to light pink (execpt the titles I personally colored)And to top it off, the bottom turned from black to white (not even the color I picked) And the text shrunk in size!Hopefully these things get fixed. (I will be coping this info to another forum in hopes it gets looked at)

Wow... great guide! I can see that a lot of work went into this and I, for one, appreciate it.I don't know if you have seen the PDF file that Crystallyne has put together, but it lists the location for all the L&L books plus a handy dandy hard copy check-off sheet for when you are done. If you want to take a look at it, go to <a href="http://www.crystallyne.net/eq2/landl.pdf" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.crystallyne.net/eq2/landl.pdf</a> .She has a TON of great stuff to help out.

02-16-2007, 01:06 PM

Thank you OneyEyedJack.I will include this handy link in the guide above. Funny thing was that this was originally a list of where to hunt mobs for Hunter Titles, and it slowly branched out into where to hunt L&L mobs, and grew from there.

02-24-2007, 05:32 PM

Does anyone have any information to add? A favorite place to hunt that certain mob? Your all time best place to hunt for status drops? I am wanting to expand on the original post to make it better, any other suggestions?

03-01-2007, 02:22 AM

Thank you for putting forth the work on this project. I was going to add some locs for the new books, but I see your on the ball! My only complaint tonight is I can't find my bookmark button. This will be my first bookmark as soon as I get enough sleep to find it!

Just a note. The best place to hunt skellies and zombies is the graveyard noobie zone in fp. <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> You also have some grouped zombie solos out in CL in the graveyards there that are pretty fast.

Stevil's top tips for getting L&L: - When mobs are grey to you they are more likely to give you the updates you need. - Find the low level non-heroic version of the mobs you're looking for and grab them in groups. A good example is the orcs in Commonlands. Just aggro 4 or 5 encounters (non-heroic) when they are grey and use AOE to see them all fall down. Then just loot your lore and status items. - When you get an L&L drop but you haven't got the book or are too low to take the quest yet, store it in a big chest in you Bank Slots and keep it until you need it. Don't palm it off for 7 copper when it could take you weeks to find later on! - If you have the EoF expansion and start a new character in Kelethin, you can get a large number of L&L books in your immediate vicinity. There are also mobs of that type near you too. My Fae Beserker is level 25 and he has already completed: Treant, Bixie, Gnoll, Orc, Skeleton and Goblin. You can too with little effort!!

You can get drakota Lore and Legend credit off the volcanu's in lavastorm, but only the ^^^ versions. The baby ones drop drake items. Specifically, I got the 3 non-tradeable dings doing the Maiden's gulch run, and then got an eye last night off a molting volcanu.

Yes notice that L&L Fairy is still behind a locked door that forces you to do a time sink quest to get to...This needs to be moved...That is all..

Great list - thanks a million. BTW, another couple of good places for skeletons is inside and just outside the Wailing Cave, Commonlands. There are skeleton orcs (around level 14 and down arrowed I think), which not only give skellie L&L but also notch up the undead AND orc slaying totals - at least I've had dings on both titles while killing those skellies. Just outside the Wailing Caves is also a good spot for collection quests, as you get some of the rarer ones there (liked Cracked Kerra). There, that's all my secrets shared! <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

DJINN Pillars of Flame (57+ heroic) <- pretty sure these are solo mobs NAGA Shimmering Citadel (53? Heroic Undead) These don't hurt your faction when killing and may increase kendrick(sp?) faction. Haven't done Naga Since DoF on 3 of my toons, but all of them picked up Naga L&L from the undead naga in Shimmering Citadel.

03-03-2007, 12:24 PM

Thanks for all your support everyone.I have added in the bits of extra info that has trickled in, and made a few minor tweaks.I have not been successfull in getting in touch with a Moderator to try and get this post re-stickied. I get errored out every time. If anyone can help to get hold of a Mod so we can get post re-stickied, it would be great.Edit: Apparently the message to Mod did work yet timed out at end. So the Sticky is here for easy reference, just different forum <img src="/smilies/b2eb59423fbf5fa39342041237025880.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

03-03-2007, 12:38 PM

Why in the world would this be moved to a Quest forum???Places to hunt enemies are not quests. Hunter Titles/Rank stuff is not quest related. The Lore & Legend stuff may be a quest, but the other portion of this post (which it started as) will now be useless and totally forgotten!Edit: Toned down the agravation, a bit hehe... I may reformat post a bit, to better display the info as a quest, instead of Hunting Locations (which was my primary focus)

Another interesting reference that can be created and used as a tool to help track various guildies progress and maybe promote the sharing of certain looted studiable items can be found at my guild sites forum here: <a href="http://www.guildportal.com/Guild.aspx?GuildID=80079&TabID=731449&ForumID=397230&TopicID=4047640&GuildThreadMsgID=22635681" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">CBW Lore & Legend Tracking Forum</a>We have been working on getting our guild members to post what they need still for thier characters. Quite often after someone posts, I am able to mail a few items that they need to them to help finish up one of the quests.

Just wanted to add that the timeline here...<a href="http://www.eq2i.com/articles/Lore_and_Legend_Timeline" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.eq2i.com/articles/Lore_a...Legend_Timeline</a>...is very deceptive for quests where the books have also been placed in lower level areas with low level mobs that give updates.For example, Treant is shown as 20th level yet a 10th level character can easily get to the book in the Crushbone camp and kill the 9th-10th level Treants nearby to complete it.The same applies for Skeletons, my 10th level SK was easily able to get the book from Kelethin and any lowbie skeletons will give updates.

Gnolls in Silent City are 57+Giants can also be found in the bottom of Solusek's Eye and Permafrost. lvl45+ Skeletons can also be found in Butcherblock Mountains near the Chessboard. lvl30-34ishElementals - the water spirits in New Tunaria also count towards Elemental LnL. 55^ heroicsFairies, though rare, can also be found in Nek forest up by Bone Lake. lvl26-27 (Sullian)Golems are also found in Permafrost. lvl45+Harpies are featured exclusively in the Scornfeather Roost (accessible from Clefts of Rujark). lvl53-58Drakota are also found in Steamfont Mountains. lvl45+Court of Innovation is lvl50+That's all I could think of off the top of my head.

Goblins are also found in Butcherblock mountains - Aqua Goblins. Actually a pretty good place to farm L&L stuff since they're solo 20+

I was looking for a tracking sheet that would allow me to track L&L for my various toons. I checked out the one from crystallyne.net linked in the original post, but it didn't allow me to track which pieces each of my toons has and needs. So I made a tracking sheet of my own. Very similiar in style to my collection tracking sheet, it allows me to have a seperate sheet for each toon that I keep on my desktop. When my toon finds a piece, I just check it off the list, or if I already have it, check my sheets for my other toons to see if they need that specific piece. The sheet includes the book locations from this post, each of the auto-drop/random-dings (1st three items after the book on the sheet), all the tradeable item drop parts, and quest levels. The sheet is sorted alphabetically by Quest mob so it's easy to find the creature quest you are looking for when you are trying to figure out if a toon needs a certain piece.Hope someone else finds this useful.<a href="http://www.ripchi.com/lnl.pdf" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.ripchi.com/lnl.pdf</a>

There is also an L & L: SKELETON inside the Bone Tower of Darklight Woods. It's in a bookcase on the first floor directly behind the skeleton mob standing inside the door.

Can someone please clarify something for me - I have recently returned to EQ2 after a years absence and after noticing my master strikes had vanished came here to find out why ! 1) I see that someone suggests killing grey mobs for L&L drops and auto-updates, does this still work as of today (7/31/07) - I am a 58 wizzy and I thought that grey mobs would not drop quest items anymore ? Please confirm they will still drop L&L items and do the Auto-updates needed. 2) Do I need to mentor down to the l&l quest level before I loot the last item of a set otherwise I won't get the optimum XP or AA ? (I notice todays GU37 makes it auto-update when you loot one of these and not when you examine). I assume this is the case otherwise lvl70's could get easy AA by doing all the L&L quests on grey mobs ? thanks in advance

The minimum level listed for some of those quests need to be adjusted. For example, the Harpy Legend & Lore is listed as minimum level 50, but my level 49 Conjuror has it completed. Similarly, the Naga & Djinn L&L quests are not minimum level 50+, as my Conjy has both of them completed up to the auto-updates.The Werewolf L&L can be acquired in Darklight Woods by anyone with Stealth or Invis, as none of the mobs see thru it. You might have to be 10+ to get it, but it's not 65+ any more. Note that Darklight Wood is now a very good place to finish the Werewolf & Drakota L&L quests, as there are lots of both, all level ~13-15ish or so. The body part drops, however, are as painfully rare as they are anywhere else <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />I very much wish the Zombie book would be placed somewhere other than Fallen Gate, & that the Ghost & Faerie books could be acquired other than in Nek Castle. But, alas <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

I have just completed the D'Morte Bloodline quest series and can confirm that on completing the 11 quests in the series, you do receive the Mastery strike for Vampires.This of course is quite different from the usual L&L books, but now gives me all 34 creatures in my Mastery strike ability. Worth knowing how to get it, I think.

I got a Drakota part off the vampire pets in Darklight Woods. Not sure if they are all available there but at least some are.

Lortet

11-01-2007, 12:41 AM

At the starting area in Darklight are heaps of rapid spawn little rock monsters - they are elementals - lvl 1 - 5?. They run around so close together that a single aoe can take out about 6. Just make sure you leave enough for the new Darklighters and you will score your elemental L&L parts in minutes.The werewolf L&L book in DL lies on the floor of the leftmost hut at the back of the werewolf area iirc. The flying lizards near the vampires do count as drakota as mentioned above.

Forgive my complete lack of spelling on this, and the generality of the information but here is what I remember from a crazy night last night. The Drovlag (I know thats not close, forgive me) L&L is in Karnor Castle under the bed of Commander something-or-other on the second floor. I know its terrible information, but it was the only mob named Commander so someone else can fill in the rest. It is a jewelry box under the head of the bed.

I've almost completed the whole Timerous Deep solo (there is no group!) timeline and have found 0 L&L books. I've attempted to poke my snout into every room, shelf, nook and cranny but have so far found no L&L starters at all. Anyone else found any?For mobs, there are avaiks (look like parrots) all over TD, skeletons in TD/Mok Rent area and there are sirens on the TD/Mok Rent coast line, if anyone needs another source of these.

Elementals - Darklight Woods - they are LEVEL 1. This goes very very fast.Drakota - Darklight Woods - level 14 - this goes pretty fast as well.Siren - Timorous Deep near Between Gorowyn Island and Island 2- they are level 13.

I have checked on Ripchi's site and have not yet found an updated PDF to include the new stuff.The old link still works, and best case is the pencil in the 5 new ones for the time being. Sorry that I could not help further, eventually I may create one, but Full-time student and Full-time work can take away all free time.Also if anyone wants to post new hunting locations for the newer mobs, Ill add them to the list (as I can't get to the new spots myself)

Do grey mobs also count towards the hunter titles?

valkry

06-13-2008, 01:14 PM

Yes, total count of kills. I got my hunter of Elementals on my 'lock helping my tank buddys get their Ele L&L. We'd go up to the Forrest Runis (way back when it had ellies) and I'd pull all the groups & hit the non encounter AoEs. Nothing like a 'lock for nice grey homicidal rampage.You also are more likely to get the L&L tradable pieces if the mobs are greyed out.

Just a quick copy from <a href="http://www.mmorpg-info.org/eq2/odyssey/lore-and-legend-boarfiend/" target="_blank">MMORPG-Info </a>so that the details are here.Our <a href="http://www.mmorpg-info.org/lore-and-legend-quests/">Lore and Legends Quest reference</a> is completely up-to-date with the addition of the Boarfiends Mastery tome as a part of the Shadows of Odyssey expansion.The Lore and Legend Mastery tome for Boarfiends can be found deep in the boar caves in the Moors of Ykesha. If you take the balloons from the UJL point to Firmroot Moot, you'll find you pass straight through the Boar Caves and you can jump off at a quiet point. Otherwise, take the balloon from Firmroot to the Boar Caves and make your way through the network of caves to 1585,457,10. None of the Nuknoks en route appear to see through invis so it is a safe and easy trip for high level adventurers. <a href="http://www.mmorpg-info.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/boarfiend.jpg"><img title="boarfiend" src="http://www.mmorpg-info.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/boarfiend-300x256.jpg" width="300" height="256" /></a>Travel through the caves to the room with Chieftain Puggot where you will see a huge bonfire with a clickable option to search through the embers. Note that doing so will break invisibility but it is quite possible to stand such that none of the surrounding Nuknok's will aggro.You'll find the Mastery Tome The Least of Brell's Creatures which explains that the creation of the Boarfiends was simply the result of drunken inspiration which would never have seen the light of day, had Bristlebane not intervened on their behalf.This is the level 70 Lore and Legend quest for boarfiend mastery. There are an abundance of boarfiends in the Moors of Ykesha ranging from mid- to high-70s.The lowest level boarfiends are the enslaved warboars in Runnyeye Citadel. There are a few ranging from level 32-34 at the initial tunnel and then a few groups of heroic level 34-35 warboars in the room at -85,1,-69. Further heroic savage warboars can be found by wandering the deeper tunnels.

The Di'Zok book is in two places.One is in Chardok, not sure exactly where.The second is right outside the entrance to Outer Seb.As you go up the steps, invis is recommended. Not only for the single ups which line the stairs on the way up but also for when the ring event is up. Triple ups line both sides of the foyer.At the doorway to Sebilis, facing it, go to your right up the stairs. This puts the door now to your left. Turn to left, facing the same direction as the doorway, and head to the wall. Behind several large objects is a small crate against the wall which will react when you mouse over it. That's the Di'Zok L and L.

With GU 57, there are no longer werewolves in Darklight Wood. So unless anyone knows of another lower level location, no werewolf LnL until the 60's.

yeah that was kinda stupid for them to take out the werewolves in DL like that. Just replaced them with even MORE vampires, which were already abundant enough.

This is a post I've had bookmarked for a long time, and I was very sad to see that it hadn't been updated in some time.Because of that, I've compiled some of the info from the OP, along with spots that I know and other high density places from ZAM's database, and made a <a href="http://eq2.zam.com/wiki/Lore_and_Legend_Hot_Spots_%28EQ2%29" target="_blank">Lore and Legends Hot Spots</a> guide over on zam (with credits of course!).

Thanks for the recent updates and the link to the Zam L&L stuff, I will be updating this guide again shortly, to help make it a bit more concise, especially since the lack of the need to examine the book, making it far faster to get the L&L stuff completed.I will mostly likely sort the guide by the level you can complete each one, starting at level 10 (since before 10 = no AA).
