Walkthrough

After you turn in Gnasher's head to Larsk Juton, he will sometimes say that he requires your services to [assist in the extermination of the gnoll brewers].

If you say the magic words, he elaborates. He tells you to go to Blackburrow to kill the gnoll brewers, and bring back any Blackburrow Casks.

You Say 'I will assist in the extermination of the gnoll brewers.'

Larsk Juton Says 'Within the bowels of Blackburrow, our scouts have reported seeing the gnoll brewers. You will go and brave the lair of the dogs and slay these brewers in order to cease the flow of Blackburrow Stout. During your mission, should you find any Blackburrow casks, you must return them to me. When you have recovered three of these casks, I shall award you the [Cloak of Jaggedpine].

You Say 'What is the Cloak of Jaggedpine?'

Larsk Juton Says 'The Cloak of Jaggedpine was made for those loyal to the ways of the forest. It is enchanted to increase one's dexterity. It is awarded to those who have aided in our cause to rid the land of those vile dogs called the Sabertooths. Should you earn one, be sure to hold onto it- you never know when we may alter the enchantments placed upon the cloak.'

You can find Blackburrow Casks on Gnoll Brewers and Master Brewers on level three of Blackburrow. It's one spawn in two separate locations at 26x35 and 57x386 (within the barrels underneath the Elite Gnoll ledge, as well as standing nearby the lake). The PH is a gnoll guardsman, who has a spawn time of about 22 minutes and will randomly spawn in one of these two locations. The brewers are semi-rare spawns and don't always carry the barrels, so pack a lunch for this camp. (this has been confirmed on Red on 4/5/21)

As of May 26th 2021 on Green, the only spawn point seems to be Blackburrow @ (50, 385, -131). There they wait a few minutes, then path to the spot between the barrels underneath the Elite Gnoll ledge. The spawn recycle time is a fixed 22 minutes.

Stats for 50 spawns over 2 days for approximately 18 hours of camping (What am I doing with my life?):

• 2 = ~4% Master Brewer = 2 casks
• 6 = ~12% a gnoll brewer = 1 cask
• 42 = ~84% a gnoll guardsman

Note: this may not be a huge waste of time for characters that can port. Simply bind yourself in front of the spawn spot. The 22 minute spawn time is long enough to port elsewhere, kill other things and earn some xp, have yourself a cup of tea with a cookie, then gate back for the next spawn. Rinse and repeat ad infinitum.

After Turning in your third Blackburrow Cask

Larsk Juton Says 'Excellent! Ridding the area of those foul beasts will certainly slow down whatever it is they are planning. Here is the Cloak of Jaggedpine. You should keep this, for you never know when we may decide to alter the enchantments on it.'

The casks are found on the Gnoll Master Brewers and "A gnoll brewer" which are a rare spawn at the end of the bottom bridge by the barrels in Blackburrow. The reward is the Cloak of Jaggedpine . He hints that one should hold on to it, because "you may never know when we may alter the enchantments placed upon the cloak."
