Walkthrough

Inside Fish's Ale: Your Location is -243.82, -261.48, 3.28

McNeal Jocub says 'Blast!! We are running [low]!!'

You say, 'Hail, McNeal Jocub'

McNeal Jocub says 'Good ta see ya! Now start showin' these poodlewalkers how a real fish drinks!'

You say, 'Running low on what?'

McNeal Jocub says 'This is going to sound crazy, but my main supplier of [Blackburrow Stout] is one of the brewers themselves. I have run too low on the fine brew and need someone to [pick up my shipment].'

You say, 'What is Blackburrow Stout?'

McNeal Jocub says 'Keep it down!! So you've heard of Blackburrow Stout? We sell it here in Fish's Backroom. If the Qeynos Guards knew, well.. it wouldn't be such a good thing. The stout is illegal. It's made by the gnolls. It is one of the finest brews you will ever taste. If you want any.. slide me a [moonstone].'

You say, 'What is a moonstone?'

McNeal Jocub says 'Looking for moonstones, are we? The only way I know of getting a moonstone is to hunt gnolls for Captain Tillin of the Qeynos Guards.'

Inside the arena: Your Location is 36.82, -512.45, 31.29

Captain Tillin regards you indifferently -- what would you like your tombstone to say?

You say, 'Hail, Captain Tillin'

Capt Tillin
Captain Tillin says 'Hail, ______! Spend your time wisely in the city of Qeynos. Do not let your mind wander to thoughts of bravado or crime. My guards can easily put to rest any outbreaks. Good day to you, citizen!'

He does not respond to any of the following:

  • You say, 'What is a moonstone?'
  • You say, 'I will hunt gnolls.'
  • You say, 'What are gnolls?'
  • You say, 'I will go on a hunt.'

Give him a Gnoll Fang, dropped by various gnolls.

Captain Tillin says 'Very good! One less gnoll the people of Qeynos need to fear. Here is your bounty as promised.'

You gain experience!!

Large Quantity Turn-Ins (both fangs & moonstones combined)

7/29/2020 on Green - 88 fangs, and the moonstone turn ins afterwards, got me from freshly level 9 all the way to 4% away from 12.

10/10/2020 on Blue - 99 fangs and all moonstone turn ins on level 43 (Iksar Monk - Faction Questing) went from 54% of my level to 65%. (*Note: Please be kind if you decide to do this. Let lowbies level if they are present.)

3/18/2020 on Green - Turned in 102 Fangs ( and all moonstones ) in Qeynos, went from 2% exp to approx. 91% on a 19 human necromancer.

7/24/2023 on Blue - 80 fangs and all moonstones turned a Gnome Rogue level 10 and 1% to level 12 and 61%. Would have been better overall experience if I hadn't accidentally auto-attacked the turn in guard and gotten whacked.
