Advice: Wood Elf Ranger of Tunare - Stein of Moggok

[bolobaby]

OK, I'm a level 19 Wood Elf Ranger of Tunare. I have the Barkeep's Compendium. Naturally, I'm KOS in Oggok.

A guildie is suggesting that maybe Wolf Form might work?

Any thoughts on how I might pull off the turn in without blowing my good factions?

Maybe have a high level enchanter charm him for you?

Or sit in /list for several hours for a guise when you are higher level.

There's some other tricks here as well like using harmony/lull + invis.

I'm crazy enough to try running in invis, giving him the book quick, dying horribly, running in invis again to retrieve my corpse with the Stein on him.

Not sure if that works, though...

Simple! Invis in there.....get behind the man....sneak....drop invis....give it to him.....and then.....ok, this is where it gets tricky, the escape. If you try to invis yourself, you is doomed. Unless you gots you a fancy invis ring.

So, a potion of invis maybe? Or harmony the guards nearby before you do it (from the other side of the wall), or have someone invis you standin somewhere safer.

You would have to sneak, open the trade with the npc.
I think they will turn to you after the quest completes so an invis cast on you with trade window open before confirming trade might help.

Do NOT hail him when sneaking btw.

Sneak puts you at indifferent. You should be able to harmony do hand in and reinvs. Pot is a good safe idea

He'd have to have someone else help still since harmony is lv 22 for rangers.

[bolobaby]

Well, I'm about to be level 19. I could wait until level 22. Just completing the quest to have the item to gift to guildies, so there's not a mega-rush.

EDIT:

But if I'm reading this correct, I would have to get in there and cast Harmony and NOT get interrupted when I inevitably get attacked for breaking invis by starting a cast. Then, when Harmony is up, hand the book, but DON'T hit trade yet. Cast Camo. Then finish the trade at indifferent...

Assuming nothing else in the room will aggro you when you are sneaking at the turn in then you probably could do it right now and just take a death or run like hell

I done the quest a few times with sneakin style. But I can hide sneak away, so was no troubles. Casting to re-invis is the tricky bit.

Insta-cast invis ring would do it though!

I would have to get my sneak up. I never bothered because I knew Camo was coming. Never thought of this use-case.

[uygi]

Nobody mentions just pull him to the zone line, and sneak turn-in there...

Sneak is huge, skill it up. It can save your life and definitely makes quests and vendoring easier.

Can just keep hitting it till it works. If you're invs you got time to get it off. You'll know when you're moving much slower.

Target mob that are kos away and outside where you won't get agro when you cast. Reinvs and retarget if needed, repeat. Invs, get sneak to work behind quest npc, hand in book(if sneak works and you are behind npc you'll be indifferent con.). Use invs pot or attempt to re camo yourself.

[Erati]

Harmony and invis all you need

just con Clurg when trade window open to make sure you are good still.

[Man0warr]

Pretty sure there is a Bouncer in the room with Clurg, right next to him I believe.

[Busher]

There are 3 other NPC's in the room, all very close...and on at least a couple different ogre factions. Not sure if sneak will work because of the way a couple of the others are facing...maybe. It is easy to get in the little "S" corridor outside the room and /tar Clurg and cast harmony. Clurg and the chef to his right are inbetween the other 2 npc's in the room so either would probably be good for a harmony target.

[Man0warr]

All of the NPC in the room are Merchants and won't attack regardless of faction, except for the Bouncer.

[Master Roshi]

Harmony doesnt need line of sight i believe so you can get the targets while invis and move away to a safe location to cast it

You don't need LOS to cast Harmony. So target him then move to a room with no NPCs to cast Harmo safely!

Cant wait to do it on red99 2.0

Brown99 soon...

[larper99]

On a similar note, is it possible for a "good" bard to become non-KOS in all cities without resorting to guises or other high end artifacts? Like are there faction quests that you can reach a turn-in NPC without having to deal with guards in all cities? I'd love to be able to walk anywhere non-KOS.
