Part 7

Guide to Guild Wars 2 quests including Charr at the Gate, The Wayward Wizard, Poor Tenet, and A Gift for Althea.

Charr at the Gate [ps12]

Quest Starter: Prince Rurik

Objective: Kill the small Charr group near the northern gate.

Difficulty and Comments: The next time you leave Ascalon City on Foot, Prince Rurik and a few guards will be waiting. Before long, they will run west to the northern gate. The Charr there are fairly difficult, but the Prince and his men will probably be able to complete the mission even if you do nothing but sit back and watch.

The Wayward Wizard [ps13]

Quest Starter: Sandre Elek [Ascalon City]

Objective: Find Orion Elek. Relena Stormbringer in Foible's Fair knows where he is. Talk to her first. Once you have done this, run to Orion in Wizard's Folly.

Difficulty and Comments: Make sure Orion does not get killed by anything chasing you. It is a rather long walk, you would not want to do it twice.

• Note: after talking to Relena, it would be faster to leave from Barradin's estate and warp into the Wizard's Folley from there. Orion is very near the entrance.

Poor Tenet [ps14]

Quest Starter: Namar [Ascalon City]

Objective: Namar can not pay his rent. His friend, Miller Upton, might give him some money though. Tell Miller of Namar's woes.

Difficulty and Comments: Miller Upton can not concentrate with the bees flying around him. You will need to grab the nearby honeycomb and step near the swarms of bees. Once you have all three swarms [the last is near the river], run with the honeycomb across the nearby bridge. Once across, drop the honeycomb and return to Miller Upton. Quest Complete.

Trouble in the Woods [ps15]

Quest Starter: Town Crier [Ascalon City, near the gates to Lakeside County]

Objective: Help Devona clear the Grawl who are threatening to attack Lakeside Village.

Difficulty and Comments: This one can be a bit hard. Clear the nearby river skales and anything else along the path to the Regent Valley [from Lakeside Village] before consulting Devona. This will keep her from running off and getting killed. If you have a healing spell, sit back and heal her, she does a ton of damage. If not, try to kill what you can.

A New [Your Class] Skill Trainer [ps16]

Quest Starter: Haversdan [Lakeside County, just outside of Ascalon City]

Objective: Find the Primary Skill trainer for your class. The one you want to find is the "Sample" skill trainer, as I have labeled them, of your class.

Difficulty and Comments: The Hardest part of this quest is remembering to activate it.

A Gift for Althea [ps17]

Quest Starter: Captain Osric

Objective: Find a suitable birthday gift for Lady Althea, Prince Rurik's Girlfriend.

Difficulty and Comments: This quest can not be done if Charr at the Gates is an active quest in your quest log. You must also have completed your skill trainer test. Walk outside of Ascalon City. Just to the West, Prince Rurik and Captain Osric are talking. When they are done talking, speak with the captain. He will give you this quest. You will need to get three items for this gift. The beautiful feather is located in the middle of Lakeside Village. The beautiful pearl is located inside of a beautiful shell, which is right next to Miller Upton's home. The final object, the beautiful pendant, is in a chest slightly northeast of where the Bandit Camp is. Return all three items to Captain Osric for the reward. Note: This quest is rather buggy if done in a party. Just do it alone.

Alternate Method: [I would like to thank "Greg" for this method] Once you have any one of the three pieces, take that piece to Lady Althea. She will be annoyed that Rurik is unable to get her a gift on his own and someone else is doing it. She will give you the same quest reward as Osric does for doing this.

Rites of Remembrance [ps18]

Quest Starter: Necromancer Munne [Catacombs]

Objective: Light four remembrance braziers with the magical candles she gives you.

Difficulty and Comments: This quest takes you along the exact same path as Brother Mhenlo's "A Monk's Mission". Do them together. All you need to do is touch the brazier. This quest is sometimes glitched and she only gives three candles. Make sure you have four before starting.

Little Thom's Big Cloak [ps19]

Quest Starter: Allison the Tanner [Lakeside County/Village]

Objective: Find a bear pelt from a black bear. Return the pelt to her. She will make it into a cloak. Give the cloak to Little Thom in Barradin's Estate.

Difficulty and Comments: The game, I believe, tells you to get the Bear Pelt from the Regent Valley. It is both more likely, and closer, to get one from the Wizard's Folly. Once you have it, bring it to her. Then just teleport [or walk] to Barradin's Estate and give the cloak to Little Thom.

The Hunter's Horn [ps20]

Quest Starter: Chantalle the Troubadour [Lakeside County/Village]

Objective: Cleanse the Hunter's Horn and give it to Aidan

Difficulty and Comments: The healing spring to clean the horn is deep into the Regent Valley. About the point at which you get to the Melandru Stalker Shrine, enemies will be aggressive with you. You can do this first half of the quest with the Sample Ranger Skill Trainer quest. Once you have cleaned the horn, you need to give it to Aidan.

Aidan is in Wizard's Folly in about the furthest place from anywhere.
