Sanamar Quests

Lorca Sammul’s Necklace

Lorca Sammul, at 71.9N 61.9W, is one sharp dressed man… well, until recently that is. He was attacked by what he calls wild beasts, and liberated of his valuables. If his mother finds out she is gonna kill him! That’s one mean momma.

Anyways, Lorca asks you to go and retrieve his necklace from the cave at 71.7N 61.4W. Once inside you will find these “wild beasts’ are cutisie wootsie little penguins. Don’t be fooled though, these are the much bemoaned Aggressive Penguin (lvl 7)! Luckily, this lair is easy to navigate, there are few dead-end hallways. The easiest way to get to the end without getting lost is to pick a wall, left or right, and follow it. I suggest left.

Both walls will lead you to the last room containing the surface portal and a chest. Inside the chest you will find Lorca’s necklace. As you kill penguins, be sure to check them for penguin beaks. These are worth 500xp and pyreal when given to the collector 72.0N 61.0W. Return to Lorca and give him his necklace he will reward you with 20,000 xp and some nice gauntlets. He will tell you as well to visit with Elena Du Furza, who has an “interesting” task. If you still have a penguin beak on you, give it to Lorca. It’s a good time.

The Beacon

Elena Du Furza, at 71.8N 61.0W, has a bit of a problem. She has been charged with maintaining the Beacon, which is an Empyrean relic used to repel olthoi from Sanamar. Unfortunately, it doesn’t repel blue phyntos wasps. The platforms leading to the beacon have become so infested with wasps Elena can’t get up there any longer. Luckily for her you are looking for work.

Elena will give you a gem which needs to be affixed to the beacon at the top of the array. To get to the beacon, use the portal directly behind Elena. Once inside you will be facing lvl 9 blue phyntos wasps and a few lvl 9 water golems. Make your way to the top of the Beacon array, which is very easy, there is only one way to go. Along the way, be sure to check the wasps as they commonly drop wings that are worth 1,000 xp to the collector. Once at the top, drop your beacon gem on the Beacon and you will be rewarded with 25,000 xp! You can use one of the three exits from the Beacon to return to Elena. She will also give you three adept healing kits and 1,000 pyreal. Elena will then direct you to Anton Sillezi for more work.

Note: This quest is repeatable every 24 hours and is a very easy way to gain 25,000 xp in a matter of minutes.

Trading with Anton

As they say, “Trade with your enemies is better than no trade at all.” Okay, so I made it up. There is still some truth to it. Anton Sillezi, at 71.9N 60.8 W, shares such a philosophy. He wants to start a trade network between Sanamar and the Dereth towns of Yaraq, Holtburg, and Shoushi. He will give you instructions in addition to three proposal letters that need to be distributed to merchants in the other starter towns. You can find portals to all of the towns you need to go just outside the Sanamar town gates.

Yaraq
When you give the letter to Lubziklan Al-Luq, at 22.4S 1.9W, he is less than enthusiastic. He is preoccupied by the fact that a gang of drudges has invaded his wine cellar and is drinking his best stock. Now drudges are bad, but a drunken drudge is a handsy little bugger. Lubziklan will give you a key and ask you to go clean out his wine cellar in exchange for considering the trade alliance. The drudge hovel is located at 20.7S 0.2W.

Once in the hovel, proceed straight ahead and unlock the door with the key you were given. Go down the ramp and follow the corridor out of the first room. This will bring you to a hallway of doors. Go to the second western door and you will find a staircase.

Drudge Slaves 14
Drudge Servants 12
Drudge Sneakers
Drudge Prowlers 7

Once down the stairs, keep left to the exclusion of all else. You will enter some rooms, run through them and keep left until you go down a ramp into a two tiered room with two locked doors. Proceed through the room to a hallway with a “T” intersection. Take either hallway and you will end up on top of the previous room. Go to the southeast corner of the upper level and you will find a corridor which will lead to the area behind one of the locked doors. Follow this hall and you will come to a three way split. Use the northeast corridor. Follow this hallway until you come to a room with a ramp down to the north. Proceed this way through the next room to the final room which contains a chest. Inside are the Cove Apple Wine and a Glorious Apple that will restore 60 stamina when used. These will regenerate in the chest every minute or so.

Return to Lubzikklan and give him the Cove Apple Wine. He will reward you with 5,000 xp and a letter for Anton. I guess he thought it was a good idea after all.
You can return to Anton using the Sanamar portal at 22.1S 1.5W. He will reward you with another 5k xp for the letter.

Holtburg
Your next stop is Renald the Eldest in Holtburg. You can find Renalt just east of the drop at 42.1N 33.8E. Renald seems open to the idea, but he will need some time to think about. So, instead of “standing around like a darn fool” he will send you off on a little errand to retrieve his father’s mug.

So off you go, south of Holtburg, to 36.9N 35.1E. The mug is in a cave, not a dungeon, so don’t look for a portal. Inside and outside the cave you will have to fight some level 14 drudge slaves to get to the mug. Be careful when you kill the drudges inside the cave, because about 20 drudges will run in from the surrounding area when you attack the ones inside. You may want to wait inside until they give up and go away. Once you have the mug, return to Renald and he will reward you with 5,000 xp, a 15k trade note, and his response to Anton… which is less than civil. I guess old animosities die hard. Return to Anton and give him the note from Renald and he will reward you with 5,000 xp and some harsh words. I guess you should have been more diplomatic. What were you thinking?!!?

Shoushi
So after evidently screwing up the job in Holtburg, you should be off to Shoushi for the last leg of the trade letter delivery. The last letter goes to Gonjoku Den who is standing outside the Shoushi east gate at 33.4S 73.3E. Den is a lot more receptive than Renald or Lubziklan. Of course, you need to do something for him first. Den will ask you to retrieve a bit of mossy herb from the mossy cave near the Prosper river at 34.1S 75.0E. Inside you will be facing:

Brown Rats lvl 7
Red Rats lvl 12
Mosswart Feeders lvl 7
Mudlurk Mosswarts lvl 14
Barker Mosswarts lvl 16

The dungeon is very straight forward. There are very few false turns, all of which dead end rather quickly. If you are worried about getting lost, follow either the right or left wall to the exclusion of all else. Eventually you will find yourself in a large cavern. The mossy herb is on a mound near the surface portal on the north side of the cavern.

Return to Den and he will give you his acceptance letter which is much kinder than Renald’s. He will also give you 5,000 xp and a potion of mana infusion which increases your max mana by 15 for 10 minutes! Well, it’s the thought that counts. Return to Anton again and he will give you 5,000 xp for the acceptance letter, a 25,000 trade note, and a pack! Well now, don’t complain, you needed one didn’t you? Anton will also direct you to Seneschal Dalamour, who is looking for experienced adventurers.

Rushuk Poachers
Or
An eye for an eye and a tusk for a… penguin, I guess

Seneschal Dalamour is the King’s game warden it seems. He has been growing increasingly concerned with the Ruskuk encroachment upon Viamontian lands. Actually the Rushuk were here first, but that’s neither here nor there. Dalamour wants you to go “encourage’ the Rushuk to stop poaching… with extreme prejudice.

To prove you have neutralized the Rushuk, you must bring a Flegemaster’s Tusk back to Dalamour. You can find the Rushuk Fledgemasters (lvl 26) on the northern beach around 78.0N 61.0W. There are several spawns in this location but you will have to fight groups usually consisting of a Fledgemaster and one or two lvl 26 Rushuk Fledglings. When you have killed a Rushuk Fledgemaster, be sure to loot one of his teeth. Return to Dalamour and give him the tusk. He will reward you with 1,000 xp and some decent AL Rushuk Hunter Leggings.
