Here's a more in depth reason why I recommended just getting fine plate:

Gull: You need a SoW and DMF/float to get there since the boats aren't in game, and even then its still a long walk, since you have to go from sisters island all the way there.

Maugrim: bad spawntime/rarity, odd placeholders, and in a place where the surrounding mobs are not green until 36+

Sluge: Easiest out of all them unless he bugs out and gets stuck in the water - or Borxx is up in which case you can just write off Runnyeye altogether.

Regis the Reverent: currently stacks up in multiples from when people kill his trigger, but not him. There was 7 of him when I last checked. After a server reset/patch they seem to go back down to 1/none. If you are going to do this one, do it then.

How bout Crafted? Is that worth it? Most of the items seem to be dropped in areas that are camped and I see it for sale a lot.

This is a bit late, but I wanted to thank everyone for all the offers of help I got. I completed my entire Sol Ro armor set (except the weapon and the shield, which I didn't want, anyway) a few days ago.

MAJOR props go out to the following people (in no particular order):

Laurellin
Deliverator
Andain
Brutillus
Jewce
Jackie
Xael
Kimmie
Graz (spelling? you were the troll shaman that helped me with Gull)
Hueylewis

I could not have done it without you folks. While we might not have made any progress (particularly on Kerra Isle and with ports to Toxx...), the time you dedicated towards helping a stranger out with a quest that soaked up your time for no gain at all speaks volumes about your character, and I'm not referring to your EQ one. Thank you all.

To the rest of you that said the quest was worthless, neener neener. I have a matching set ([You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]!) of armor with more AC and less weight than fine plate, and I got it cheaper than I would have purchased the fine plate for, AND there's a bit of stats scattered across to boot. I would rather have spent the time and plat on this quest for a distinguishable set of gear than simply have purchased some crafted stuff that looks like everyone else. I want to thank the naysayers, too, though. Without them I might not have had the "I'll show them" attitude that was motivated me to stick with it an continue spending my coin on platinum bars as soon as I had enough for it. My reward is being able to write this paragraph (and the armor, obviously). [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I'm finally not encumbered anymore, and running at normal speed feels wonderful. Thank you, P99.

Dantes Crafted is worth it and the quests are super easy, i did all of them solo or duo on my war starting around lvl 30 but some of the pieces i didn't complete until i was about 40

Congrats Nocte, that armor looks bad ass on an inkie.

Yoite - Thanks! Yeah after looking up all the old quests I think I definitely agree - seems easy enough. Right now I just need to focus on leveling, Nocte keeps gaining levels like mad and I need to catch up. I'll probably just drop the bronze in favor of banded in the meantime. That stuff is so damn heavy. Trouble is that Crafted is just as heavy, but at least it adds some STR.

While we are on the topic of class armor is darkforge armor worth it?
