Quest Name: Lion Were Quest Level: 30 Class: All Quest NPC: Burgomaster Delvin Location: Sondereel Village, Forkwatch (E), on river Tail NPC: Corindas in Forkwatch (E), Sondereel Village.

Walkthrough: Burgomaster Delvin asks you to escort Lionell Redrick safely through the Salt Mines. Travel to the Salt Mines (W) and locate Ridrick in the mine. Enter the mine and descend the spiraling stairwell — Redrick is in the first adjacent room. After speaking with him, he will begin to ascend the stairwell. When he reaches the top, you should receive a pop-up. Once Ridrick walks into the main entrance, three mobs will spawn and engage him (one necromancer, two melee). Focus on the necromancer first. After defeating them, Redrick continues on his way.

When he reaches the courtyard, he’ll be ambushed again by similar mobs. Defeat them, accompany Redrick to the tree, and have the quest holder speak with him to update the log. Return to Burgomaster for part two.

Travel north from GM into Kelinar (SW) and speak with Herman Forrestor in a small tent outside the city. After speaking, back up to avoid aggro. Three hunters spawn (dark blue), and Herman CONs white cons white. Defeat them, ensuring the quest holder is grouped when Herman dies. Return to Burgomaster for your reward.

Now log the tail quest with Corindas. If your faction (Villagers of Sonderal) is below 150, kill werelions in Centaur Valley to raise it. Ultimately, you’ll need 1000 faction with Sunmanes to complete the infection quest.

Infection Tips:

  • Kill YELLOW-conned weres for the best infection chance.
  • If only farming faction, hunt lower-level zones.
  • Having a high-level player in group does not reduce infection chance.

“The rumor that having a level 60 in your low-level group affects your chance of infection just isn't true... I’ve helped nine infections with a level 60 bard doing all the killing.” — Dustyspheres

Where to Get Infected:

Level 30–34

  • Kelinar
  • Centaur Valley (hunt lionwere, not werelion)
  • Forkwatch (S, SE – between the rivers near Sonderal Village)
  • Widow’s Peak

Level 35–39

  • Forkwatch: near the arches on the river at level 37. Kill wildlife to spawn yellow lionweres — one kill often infects you.
  • Kelinar also works.

Level 40–50

  • Fort Alliance
  • Desert Hate
  • Elephant Graveyard
  • South Crossroads
  • Wktaan’s 4th Talon
  • Deathfist Horde
  • South Barren Coast (white/yellow cons @ high 40s)

Hunt where wildlife CONs yellow cons yellow for your level to maximize infection.

Level 50–55

  • Abysmal Sea (51–60 range; yellow @51–55, LB @60)
  • South Barren Coast (LB @60, low infection rate)
  • Toxxulia South
  • Sylhilthis’ Dwell
  • Near Kappa Guards (elder elephant spawns, white @60)

Level 60

  • Abysmal Sea
  • Toxxulia South
  • Sylhilthis’ Dwell
  • Near Kappa Guards (white @60)

Infection Confirmation: You’ll know you’re infected when Corindas gives you a popup saying he must urgently speak with you. You can also confirm in Oasis:

  • Advisor Gerahl checks any were infection.
  • Advisor Sanne checks lion infection.

After infection, Corindas sends you to defeat Jensen in South Crossroads (N). If he’s not stationary, he may roam. Neutral before triggered, red after. Bring help. If he doesn’t spawn, re-speak to Corindas.

If Corindas won’t progress:

  • Ensure Sunmanes faction ≥ 1000.
  • Delete the tail quest, re-speak to him.
  • Never take the antidote or you’ll lose infection.

Level 40 Spell Quest: Triggered mobs — scout before activating.

Steps:

  1. Speak with Katerina Suncharmer in Sondereel Village. She sends you to kill the Undead Slave in Oasis (first flag on left, down a small valley). Red to 40, white to 60.
  2. Return to Katerina, then go to Trizzia Newmane in Fort Alliance (SE) courtyard. Say the correct line to receive the Collar of Power. Return to Katerina.
  3. She then sends you to Merry-By-Water (C) to speak with Branty near the south entrance (across from the spiritmaster). Say the right thing to get the Claw of the Ancients. Return to Katerina.
  4. Lastly, she sends you to kill Zipnick near Zentar’s Keep, behind the castle near the fisherman. Look for a stone circle with mist. Con red to trigger, white @60. Bring help and time your trigger carefully.

Return to Katerina for your reward.

Spells:

  • Lion’s Nobility: Cl Sha Drd — +115 Cha self-buff @60
  • Accelerated Foliage: Nec Mage Wis Enc Alc — AoE root
  • Growl of Battle: War Sk Pal — +67 Str/Sta group buff @60
  • Agility of Kehrahn: Rge Ran Brd — +80 Agi & SoW @50

Were Tips:

  • In Centaur Valley (SE) — great for level 35s. Coach to Blackwater, head north, then NW across the river before the first guard tower.
  • Zipnick Spawn Tips:
    • (a) If solo, let a mob kill you near spawn, log quest, then rez and kill Zipnick.
    • (b) If solo but can coach, turn in quest, coach to Zentar, wait 1–5 mins for spawn.
    • (c) If in group, have them wait in Zentar before you log the final quest part.

In Abysmal Sea, lionweres spawn in ~5 areas: two near the Hunt border, one near northern Kerran village with the boat, and others along the coast. Kill man-hunters and welahi-nai creatures to spawn them.

Mob Info:

  • Undead Slave north of Oasis — red @40, LB @56.
  • Zipnick likely level 50 (white @60).

Notes: You can complete the second part even if you didn’t kill the hunters — just log the new quest from Herman and proceed.
