<span style="font-size: small"><span style="color: #ffffff">Creature Mastery (Legends and Lore) Quests Thread Consolidation [ Edited ] Note from Sulas: I saved this info from the original boards since it seemed too valuable to risk losing. iasmin Defender Posts: 492 Registered: 11-30-2004 Viewed 37840 times One of the tough parts of reading the boards is that you inevitably end up with 100000 posts in the one good thread you liked about a topic. Bookmarks provide a good way to keep track of that thread, but eventually you have a huge collection of the threads you keep track of. I've been tracking the Creature Mastery/Legends and Lore threads and wading through the information has been tedious, amusing, frustrating, and at the very least rewarding for all the generous information the various contributors have offered up. For my guild buddies, I've been regularly posting information on the quests to our guild boards and I thought that the consolidated information might be of use to more than just them. I'm posting the information here as well because it consolidates the threads I've read and includes information that simply doesn't appear in any one thread. Here's the general format of an entry: <b>Creature Name</b> <i>Title of Creature Mastery Book</i> Location: (linked to pictures where possible): Directions and locs. Post beta?: Whether or not it's confirmed to exist post beta. Reward: What the reward is called (not including the book you get). Quote: The quote displayed when you examine the reward. Level Requirement: What level you must be to start the quest. Notes: Any notes of reported status from the Devs. If no notes, this line won't appear. Question marks in areas listed means that people have suggested ranges or possibilities or there are conflicting reports on information. Where I've had information about books existing in both Qeynos and Freeport areas, I've listed that too. Corrections welcome, comments appreciated, updates wholeheartedly encouraged. I'll be keeping an eye on the thread and all the others that pop up so I can keep the list up-to-date (some of the other threads haven't had their initial posts updated in a while). My many many thanks to everyone that posted on these quests in other threads. There's no way I would be able to list or thank them all. Forgive my blatant stealing of your text at times, friends. You said it much better than I could. One person, however, deserves quite a bit of thanks. Nith, on the Unrest server, spent a lot of time gathering up quests and shooting screenshots of the starting locations for people who were having trouble finding the books. It's to Nith's website that the Location links are linked, if a picture exists. Thanks, Nith! ~ Kodia, Monk in Training, Blackburrow Server ~ Jaddari, formerly of Stromm, Mystic in Training, Blackburrow Server [Information after 09-18-2005 edit was added by Sulas on 01-31-2007] <b>Aviak</b> <i>First Flight</i> Location: Barren Sky, Wisperwind Island, climb up all 3 walls; big root in the camp.
