Xanthe's Earrning of Nature/Solstice Earring
by paul on Jan.09, 2003, under Tradeskill
This is an outline of the two versions of the quest for the Protection of the Cabbage spell (NO DROP, level 59, single-target Protection of the Grove spell for druids.) The original version of this quest, which relies very heavily on tradeskills, results in a copy of the spell and a no drop earring. The second version (also linked in below), results in only the spell. The earring reward is:
Xanthe’s Earring of Nature: AC 5 STR 8, STA 8, WIS 10, HP 55, mana 55, sv fire 7, sv cold 7, sv magic 7, recommended level 51, effect: circle of the combines; DRU/ALL, LORE, NO DROP.
If you have completed this quest and are not a druid, fear not! You can hand this earring back to Rebecca Cabbageleaf for:
Earring of the Solstice: AC 5, STA 5, WIS 8, INT 8, HP 55, mana 55, sv fire 5, sv cold 5, sv magic 5, recommended level 51, flowing thought 1, tiny, wt 0.1, ALL/ALL, LORE, NO DROP
(Yes, druids can do this quest twice, first trading in their Xanthe’s Earring of Nature for the Earring of the Solstice, then completing the quest a second time for the Xanthe’s Earring of Nature. Remember to trade the Xanthe’s earring in before attempting the second quest combine, due to the lore flag)
