+2cha Shield ~ Quest Help

I believe the shield is a reward of Drake's quest.

Yes, you get to select one of the Drakes treasures, amongst being also Jet-black crystal ball (+2 Cha shield), when completing Drake's quest part two.

For this you first need to complete the first part of the quest, by killing the Drake's ghost in first part of the Pirate Island and obtaining Drake's key. For this you need to first make the map by collecting the map pieces by tasks you get from PI village. I do not remember all the names etc. as it's been some time for me to do the first part already, but maybe I can try to write you somekind of guide.

- Hunt for blue lizards until you get their skin (or buy the skin). Take this skin to boy with the dog and as a reward for finding out why his dog does not want to go out in the woods you get piece of the treasure map.

- Pirate on the center of the village has lost his friends long time ago and asks help to find out what happened to them. He explains how some skeleton pirates had attacked them when they had been playing a flute around some stones and gives you the flute. Go upper and right area of the island (right from the stone circle where you tele to Elemental Graves, you see little path leading there in the map) and you find a place with lots of stones on the ground. One of the spots is marked, so go there and play the flute. Skeleton Head will spawn and attack you. Kill it and you get some item that belonged to the pirate's friend. Take the item back to the pirate and you get another map piece.

- Belov the previous pirate, a pirates can be found in a hut. She has lost his son in the woods and wonders if he could still be alive. I think it was again the blue lizards near the left entrance that dropped the the letter of the son (explaining he has gone in the cave). Go in the PI cave and hunt the Lizard elders (the mage type casting C-Lightning) either in first or second floor until you get portrait of the son. Then go in the 3rd floor and hunt the Pirate Heads until you get the remaining of the son. Now take all these to the pirates (Simizz or something was her name) and you get pirate bandanna.

- Left from pirates you find another pirate near his hut. He only talks you if you wear the bandanna you just got, so put it on and talk to the pirate. He tells you how he had (and still has) deep feelings for the Simizz in their youth and tells he had also a ring for her but never dared to tell her about his feelings. Promise him you will find his ring and go to hunt parrots. Eventually you will get ring from one of them, but it's dirty/rusty or something. Take the ring to the old man that gave you the amulet for the gem and he will clean the ring for you. After this you will see there is indeed engraving of the two pirates. Take the ring to the pirate, but he does not dare to do anything even he promised he would if you bring him the ring, so walk to the Simizz and show her the ring. Then go back to the he-pirate againwith the news and you get third piece of the map.

- The map pieces are still needed to be combined as a complete map, so go talk to the man in hotel lobby. He tells you he will complete the map if you bring his grandson to him, as he tends to go wander in the woods. So go find this little boy wandering around. He can be everywhere in the first part of the island, so this can take long time -_- If lucky, he can be found near the town, I've found him often just right from the town when I've started this on my alt chars. The boy has a light circle on him, so it makes him easier to spot at night. After you find him, talk to him and tell his grandfather wants him back to town. Walk him in the hotel, then walk out yourself and the boy disappears giving you some item. Talk to the mapmaker and he gives you the completed treasure map.

Now you are ready to go finish the first part of the Drake quest. Go to PI cave 3rd floor, and from upper right corner you find a small room where is a circle marking on the floor. Go on the marking and double click the map. You're getting teleported to the Drake's room and if lucky, he will spawn there when you arrive, or after lil while you move a bit. Kill him and you get the Drake's key.

Part one is finished.

--------------------------------------------
Have fun, but let others have too :)

Yeah, first you gotta do Simiz's quest to get the pirate hood. Then you must complete parts 1&2 of drakes quest. To do simizz's quest speak with simizz, he will talk about a missing son or something. Next go to the NW entrance to PI dungeon and hunt bluetail lizards there until you receive Letter of Son(the first part of drakes quest also involves killing bluetails so might as well do both at the same time) After you receive the letter of son go to PI dungeon 1f and hunt High Lizards for the next relic of son. After you receive that, you go to PI 3f and hunt Skeleton Captains until you receive the Portrait of Son. Now return all three of these relics of son to Simizz and he will give you Blue Pirate Bandanna.

Drake quest part 1: You have to speak with Doyle(i think) about his dog. He will say his dog wants something. Now is when you need the blue lizard tail. You can obtain this from hunting any bluetails on the island or sometimes can buy them in GTZ. I believe the nexr part you Speak to Rudian, and he will give you a flute and tell you to go to the Cemetary, it is pretty much due east from town. At the cemetary there will be a Star spot in the middle of it. You must stand on this spot and use the flute. Some skeleton guy spawns and you have to kill him. Note: you must do this alone, not party and nobody near the spawnpoint. After you kill him you go back to town speak to Rudian and i believe he tells you who to go to next(i cant remember all the names). The next person will tell you about some ring they had but was lost but you MUST be wearing the blue pirate bandanna when you speak with him to get the right text, you must kill Kiwi Parrots until you get the Tarnished Ring(or whatever it is called) then back to town, and talk to the old man outside the inn, he will make the ring nice and shiny and new again, then return it to the guy(western corner of town right near simizz) and return the new shiny ring. There will be some text and blah blah blah, take the ring back from the guy and go give it to Simizz, then some more text etc and then give the ring back to the other guy. Now you will have 3 treasure map pieces. You must turn them into one treasure map. Speak with the man inside the Inn, he will tell you he will help you if u find and bring his grandson back. This is prolly most tedious part of the quest as the little boy literally can be anywhere on the island. I have 1 hint, and that is the boy does have a light when it is dark so it may be easier to find him at night. Once you find the boy you must escort him back to town, and return him to his grandpa at the inn. Then Grandpa will give you a completed map. Now take this completed map to PI dungeon and head to Drakes room, i believe double clicking the map when you stand on the little tele spot it send you to Drakes room. He spawns every 1hr-1.5hr so if he isnt there you have a bit to wait. Once you kill drake he gives you Drakes Key. You are now done with part 1.

I'll post part 2 in a little bit just have to take care of couple things first.

In Episode 5 we got the second part to the Pirate Island and the end for the Drake's quest. So if you have the key from the first part, you can now go to second part of the island do go and finish the quest. Walk all the way North (up and right) in the first part of PI and you find two paths through the rockwall. Take either one of them and you will end up in the second part of the PI.

In here some of the Lizardmen are aggressive towards you, as some are not. Lizardmen are having a problem where their holy item is being stolen and they are having inner conflict / civil war of a kind. If you like, you can do the Lizardman Hero -quest on the way. Start it by talking to Lizard elder at the campfire of their village. He tells you to find his exhausted scout, who should have information about who has stolen the holy item. So away you go searching a lizardman that is stationery and has name of exhausted lizardman or something. He is a brown type, looking like mad lizardman I think. Often you find him from right side of the town, but with one of my chars he was North end of the island. Anyways, lots of lizardmen attack you and when you find the scout, they attack also him. I am not sure can the escorted lizardman really die, but it could be possible. So try to keep the lizards out of him. Escort him to the elder (the cell in front of the elder) and he disappears. After this, talk again to the elder and you find out it's actually the military leader of the lizardmen that has stolen the item and trying to sell it. He is usually around the village too, with two of his bodyguards, so go find him and prepare to battle. Now, he can make some decent damage, as well as stun you, so keep your HP up all the time. Attack only the leader, not his bodyguards as the elder adviced you, otherwise they all teleport away. When you kill the leader, take the holy item back to the elder and you get rewarded with Lizardman Hero gloves.

But back to Drake's quest part two.. I have to say, I do not necessarily remember all the phases too sharply (damn my memory), but hopefully it will help a bit at least.

In the North end of the PI 2nd area, that is in the old hedquarters of the Drake's pirates, you find a hut near boat on the land that has no floor. Walk in the hole and you drop in the underground cave. In the cave you find a woman's ghost named Khamyl if I remember right. She tells you some of the background story about the Drake's pirates and what had happened. Very interesting, I recommend reading it through. Basically Khamyl had been Drake's woman and the Drake's crew who had betrayed their captain had used her to trap Drake in a hut that had hole in the floor. They had also left her to die in the cage in there (you see it in the corner) and she had eventually turned into ghost as she had not died in peace. She asks you to find out why they got betrayed and tells the crew is still trapped in the Drake's huge treasure chamber with lots of traps.

So she sends you first to.. to.. Franco or something who is responsible for building all kinds of machines and traps. Basically you only need to navigate through this first part. It's a kinda U-formed floor, where you first go North (up and left) until you're at end of floor. Go East and then back to South and you find Franco sitting in wheel chair. You hear Jose had tricked him to make trap for Khamyl and Drake and the big guy had striked his head with something after the trap had been triggered. That has left him in the state he is now. He also tells that because of the traps and maze the other pirates are also trapeed in the chamber forever. After talking to him and getting a map or something, I think he teleports you back to Khamyl or front of the hut, or maybe you had to restart to do so. Restarting in any of those treasure chamber parts ends up for you being in front of the hut with no floor.

Go talk to Khamyl again and she hears now that Franco was also tricked to the betrayal. Because of the map she now knows where the rest of the pirates are. Next she will send you to the big man, the pirate who seemed to have right hand for Jose. So Again you need to navigate in the maze a bit. Just little North from the start you come to room with lots of marked tiles on the floor. You have to go through the room avoiding the tiles, as they are traps. Go North and at the East you will see a door out. Continue East and you see a floating red crystal in a room. Talk to it and it tells about Drake's ghost and how you need to defeat it. The crystal gives you some swords and enchant scrolls. You can use the scrolls in the swords, but you do not have to use the weapons as you can kill the ghost with spells or your own weapons also (maybe somekind of bug, who knows O_o). After killing the Drake's ghost, delete all the weapons and scrolls you got as the crystal adviced. After that is done, talk to the crystal again and it teleports you to room with goblins. Now, this is a game of luck. Basically you hit one of the goblins and hope it carries a key. If not, all of them dies and you have to wait until they respawn. This can take a while, but eventually you kill the right one and the rest attack you. When you have the key, talk to red crystal that's on the room and you get teleported to area where the big guy is located. He is just next room West, so be prepared. He has also some Skeleton Heads with him. I noticed that he can swing quite a lots of damage in close range, but his long range attack is a lot weaker. So for my elf this was easy, when knight took quite a punishment. After knowing this, I might take a bow for knight too when going after him. The big guy drops you a notebook or something, cannot remember anymore. But back to Khamyl.

Again she learns a bit more what had caused the betrayal and only one undead pirate left to handle. This one is already relatively difficult depending of the character class. As my alt chars were around 45, this was a true challenge for them. The chamber floor of Jose's is shaped as U (the bottom of U being at North and you start from South-West) and he can be anywhere in it when you go there. Mostly I found him from Eastern part of the U tho. Also in here spawns other monsters and the Skeleton assassins (or whatever the name was) can do quite a damage with their throwing knives. But Jose can make huge damage both long range and close, as he has somekind of magical attack that can crit a high damage. So good MR is recommended. Basically Jose makes lots of damage, but seems to have low HP but good HP regen. That's why he was easy for my mage (just remember to immune or you drop dead fast) when you can make lots of damage fast. Also my 46 DE had no trouble at all, but I did that during event with Assassin Master poly and some left-over brave candy. My 45 elf with event DE-poly had to try couple times, but managed to eventually kill it by staying long range and shooting it with TA and running and at the end spamming TA while drinking a-clears. My 47 knight on the other hand really had a strugle. I tried to kill Jose who knows how many times often also dieing, as a-clears could not keep up with 76% or so MR. In the end I got a mage in the pledge to help me by stacking some immune just before I went in (yeah, was before the update) after it was piece of cake. Ayways, when you succeed Jose dorps you a crumbled love letter you again take to Khamyl.

Now Khamyl sees what really has caused all of what happened and we learn women can be cruel creatures indeed. As a reward she offers you one item from the Drake's treasury, amongst them being the Jet-black crystal ball you're after.

Other decent choice would be Shield of Faith as it's one of the best shields for royals, or Bow of Silence as it's a decent bow for elf if you play one. A poor man's Ancient Bowgun I'd say, so if you have elf as alt char and do not like to dish out current high prices for bowgun, Bow of Silence will do just fine, especially as you can get like 3 of them after taking Jet-black crystal ball to try for better enchants :)

Okies, but that was the guide. There might be something I did not remember too well, but hopefully it helps you a bit at least.

Have fun, but let others have too :)

wow! Thx for the info guys.. I will let you guys know if i run into any problems when I attempt the quest v.v

..:: My Blog ::..

Yeah it's not extremely difficult but its very very long x.x
MeBlog

its not a shield, its a staff. +2cha +1sp jet-black crystal ball

I prefer to use the Jet Black ball over cha ammy + cloak of sea / RKC because it is easier to hot swap a wep out than it is to use the cloak and ammy combo. You need this because you will be utilizing dire bears soon v.v
