== Overview ==

The Coldain prayer shawl quests are a series of progressively more difficult tradeskill quests to repeatedly upgrade a cloth shawl. All quests except the final can be completed solo.

== Tradeskills ==


The table below displays the tradeskill trivial levels for each level of the quest. The quests can be completed with lower skill levels, but the risk of combine failures increases.

== Requirements Summary ==
Below is a checklist of all skill levels and non-trivial items that you must acquire for this quest.

After finishing the first three quests, ask Loremaster Borannin 'What is brewing?'

: Loremaster Borannin says 'Ahh yes, good to see you again Maeve . I wish it were under better circumstances that we meet today. For some time now we have sent teams of our finest rogues to gather intelligence for the Dain. Tanik Greskil is one of our best. He was recently sent into the heart of Kael Drakkel on a very important mission and has not returned. He is now long overdue, and fearing the worst, our wise council has asked me to dispatch a rescue party to determine what has become of him and return him to safety. I have decided to give you this opportunity to build upon the trust you have earned from the council. Will you accept this mission?'

You say, 'I will accept this mission'

: Loremaster Borannin says 'The council will be pleased to hear of your acceptance. Scour the regions surrounding the city of the Giants. Discover what happened to Tanik and, if possible, return him to Thurgadin. If you are successful, remember to hand me your woven shawl. We seem to be running low on them, but I must say Mordin has never had so much help in the kitchen. Anyway, I will eagerly await word of your findings. Good luck, and may Brell protect you.'

'''Bring a Vial of Velium Vapors (see below) with you to the Eastern Wastes to keep from having to find Tanik twice.  Simply hand him the Vial to receive his note.''' (Confirmed 7/13/2023)

'''If you wander around [[Eastern Wastes]] near the upper ridge of the Kael entrance (a wide area near -6644,4337 UPDATE: also spawns around -6000, 4350 or the north side of the gorge where I found him on tracking) you will eventually trigger either a group of [[Kromrif Death Squad]] or you will see the message "the snow crumbles away revealing an injured coldain." A common way to find the mob is to have a pet on guard and it will point in the direction of the nearest NPC, including invisible ones, such as the dwarf we are looking for. The injured Coldain is [[Tanik Greskil]].'''  Run away from the Death Squad, as they are immune to snare as well as other immobilizing effects. There is no reason to fight them. FYIs: I was KOS in wolf form to Tanik Greskil also if you have a levitate buff you will not trigger either.

You say, 'Hail, Tanik Greskil'

: Tanik Greskil says 'Outlander! Thank Brell you've found me! I am the last surviving member of my unit. Our mission was somehow compromised, the bloody Kromrif knew just where to find us... I can't imagine how they knew. I was barely able to escape with my life and wandered into a trap here. I am badly hurt and need your help.'

You say, 'I will help'

: Tanik Greskil says 'Quickly, give me a vial of Veluim Vapors so I can return home, I am in desperate need of some attention from our clerics.'

You say, 'What are velium vapors?'

: Tanik Greskil says 'Drat! Are you telling me you don't have one with you? Run back to Thurgadin at once and speak with Frundle, she can make you one. I will do what I can to stay alive. I may need to move about a bit to keep from being discovered. Hurry now outlander, you're my only hope.'

'''Once back in [[Thurgadin]], find [[Frundle Frenkler]]. Run past the bank staying left, Second building on the left'''

You say, 'Hail, Frundle Frenklar'

You say, 'What velium vapors?'

: Frundle Frenklar says 'Ahh, you come seeking my family recipe? After all you've done for our people it's the least I can do. First you must fashion a velium vial, then combine the vial with two small pieces of velium in this jar. That's all there is to it. Please keep the recipe a secret.'

'''You receive a [[Velium Purifier]].'''

You say, 'What velium vial?'

: Frundle Frenklar says 'I'm no potter mind you, but if I remember correctly it's a small brick of velium, three crystalline silks, and two glass shards. Then you'll have to finish up by firing it in a kiln with a high quality firing sheet.'


'''Drop Locations'''

[[Small Piece of Velium]] and [[Small Brick of Velium]] can be looted off [[A Ry`Gorr Miner]] in [[Crystal Caverns]] or off spiders in [[Velketor's Labyrinth]], or various golems (you can find some on the 5th and 7th floors) in [[Tower of Frozen Shadow]].

[[Crystalline Silk]] can be found on spiders in both zones.

'''Step 1'''
# Combine a small (7 lb) [[Small Brick of Velium]], 3 [[Crystalline Silk]] and 2 [[Glass Shard]]  in a pottery wheel. You will receive an [[Unfired Velium Vial]].
* [[Pottery]] (Trivial: 122)
** '''Yield: Unfired Velium Vial''' x1
** In [[Pottery Wheel]]:
:: {{SmIcon|782}} 3 x [[Crystalline Silk]] - Dropped
:: {{SmIcon|968}} 2 x [[Glass Shard]] - Bought
:: {{SmIcon|1138}} 1 x [[Small Brick of Velium]] - Crafted, Dropped

'''Step 2'''
# Combine the [[Unfired Velium Vial]] and a [[High Quality Firing Sheet]] in the kiln and receive a [[Velium Vial]].
* [[Pottery]] (Trivial: 122)
** '''Yield: Velium Vial''' x1
** In [[Kiln]]:
:: {{SmIcon|1036}} 1 x [[High Quality Firing Sheet]] - Bought
:: {{SmIcon|1154}} 1 x [[Unfired Velium Vial]] - Crafted

'''Step 3'''
# Combine the [[Velium Vial]] and 2 [[Small Piece of Velium]] in the [[Velium Purifier]]. The [[Velium Purifier]] disappears and you are left with a [[Vial of Velium Vapors]]. The vial is a lore item and has one charge of gate to Thurgadin.
* [[Non-Tradeskill]] (Trivial: No-Fail)
** '''Yield: Vial of Velium Vapors''' x1
** In [[Velium Purifier]]:
:: {{SmIcon|1155}} 1 x [[Velium Vial]] - Crafted
:: {{SmIcon|1135}} 2 x [[Small Piece of Velium]] - Crafted, Dropped

The vial is trivial at skill 122.

'''When you get [[Tanik Greskil]] to spawn again, just hand him the [[Vial of Velium Vapors]].'''

: Tanik Greskil says 'Thank you. I shall be eternally grateful to you. Should you ever require my assistance I pledge to you my aid. Please deliver this to Borannin, it is imperative that he deliver this to the Dain at once. Farewell for now outlander...'

'''You receive [[Tanik's note]].'''

: Loremaster Borannin says 'Words cannot express our gratitude for your deeds outlander, you have saved a hero of our people from certain death. Please accept this, the Fur-lined shawl, as a token of our sincere appreciation. You are indeed among the most highly regarded Humans to set foot in Thurgadin.

The Dain has called an emergency session of the council and I must attend. We don't have the luxury of waiting for an appropriate task to arise, you must advance as soon as possible. Unfortunately, I have neither the time, nor the components to fashion the next few shawls for you. Ask Rexx Frostweaver about the prayer shawl and follow his direction carefully.'

: Rexx Frostweaver says 'Hmmm, ye be one o them offlanders, don't ye? I've heard some strange tales o yer kind so don't be tryin' any funny business with me. I know the value of a platinum piece and I'll not get cheated by yer foreign coin.'

You say, 'I am here for the next prayer shawl.'

: Rexx Frostweaver says 'Gather five strands of crystalline silk thread and combine them in a sewing kit to make a crystalline silk fiber. Take this container and combine a glowing shardworm bile with three of the fibers to form a piece of glowing crystalline silk. Five pieces of glowing crystalline silk sewn to your fur-lined shawl will yield a beautiful silk shawl. Become a master in the art of tailoring before risking all you've worked for and be sure to let me inspect your work when it's complete.'

'''You receive a [[Glowing Bile Soaker]].'''

'''You will need at least 75 [[Crystalline Silk Thread]] and 5 [[Glowing Worm Bile]], provided you don't fail at all.'''

At the end of the previous quest, Rexx Frostweaver told you to speak to his wife [[Betti Frostweaver]] regarding the embroidered shawl.

You say, 'Hail, Betti Frostweaver'

: Betti Frostweaver says 'Well, hello there, dear, it sure gets cold here, doesn't it? Perhaps I can interest you in a sewing pattern to pass the time and keep you warm.'

You say, 'I am here regarding the embroidered shawl.'

'''You receive an [[Embroidered Shawl Pattern]].'''

: Betti Frostweaver says 'It will be an honor to assist you in fashioning an embroidered shawl. It is a very demanding product and '''I can see from the look in your eyes that you desire to burn your sewing kit in our furnace''' ''(YEP)'', but if you persevere, your efforts will be richly rewarded. When you are ready you must carefully weave a spool of sacred Coldain thread. Take the thread, this pattern, and the silk shawl and carefully embroider the pattern. The result will be most exquisite. Please show me if you manage to create one.'

You say, 'What sacred Coldain thread?'

: Betti Frostweaver says 'Take a woven frost giant beard, two siren's hairs, two manticore manes and two Drakkel dire wolf whiskers, and combine them in a sewing kit. The resulting thread will enhance your shawl's power when embroidered in a special pattern.'

* The DROPPABLE [[Woven Frost Giant Beard]] is an uncommon drop from various frost giants across Velious. It is droppable, so you may find it on vendors in [[Thurgadin]].
* The DROPPABLE [[Manticore Mane]] are a common drop from [[A Manticore]] in [[Eastern Wastes]]. These are also droppable but vendors do not buy them.
* The NO DROP [[Siren Hair]] is a rare drop from sirens in [[Cobalt Scar]] and [[Siren's Grotto]]. This should not be confused with [[Lock of Siren Hair]], which is used for a different quest.
* The NO DROP [[Drakkel Wolf Whisker]] is a rare drop from [[A drakkel dire wolf]] in the [[Great Divide]]. They're often left to rot by players killing for faction, so a quick zonewide /shout may net you one or more rather quickly.

'''Step 1'''

'''Once you have all the components, combine 2 [[Drakkel Wolf Whisker]],  2 [[Manticore Mane]],  2 [[Siren Hair]] and 1 [[Woven Frost Giant Beard]] in a [[Sewing Kit]] to craft a [[Spool of Sacred Coldain Thread]] (trivial 162). 

* [[Tailoring]] (Trivial: 162)
** '''Yield: Spool of Sacred Coldain Thread''' x1
** In [[Sewing Kit]]:
:: {{SmIcon|794}} 2 x [[Drakkel Wolf Whisker]] - Dropped

:: {{SmIcon|853}} 2 x [[Siren Hair]] - Dropped
:: {{SmIcon|1001}} 1 x [[Woven Frost Giant Beard]] - Dropped

'''Step 2'''

Combine the [[Spool of Sacred Coldain Thread]] with the [[Embroidered Shawl Pattern]] and {{:Silk Coldain Prayer Shawl}} in a sewing kit to craft an {{:Embroidered Coldain Prayer Shawl}} (trivial 208). If you fail the final combine you get the {{:Silk Coldain Prayer Shawl}} back, and can follow the initial dialogue to get another [[Embroidered Shawl Pattern]]. Because of this, some people choose to raise tailoring to 162 then repeat the final combine until succeeding, because it is much faster and cheaper than raising tailoring to 200+.

'''Give Betti the [[Embroidered Coldain Prayer Shawl]].''' (She will return it.)

: Betti Frostweaver says 'Spectacular artistry! I doubt I could have done better myself. You'll have to forgive me, I know time is short and I tend to carry on. This is the pattern for the making of a rune sacred to our people. It will be our final test of your craftsmanship and will put many of your skills to the test, but I trust you'll find the finished product to be more than worth the effort. Show Gilthan the silk shawl, he will set you on the path. May Brell always be with you outlander.'

You receive the [[Runed Prayer Shawl Pattern]], this is needed in the next shawl quest (Shawl 7).

{{End}}

At the end of the previous quest, Betti Frostweaver told you to show your {{:Embroidered Coldain Prayer Shawl}} to [[Gilthan Brittleblade]]. Do that (and take care not to give it to the guard that sometimes paths in front of him!) He gives it back. 

: Gilthan Brittleblade says 'So, you've been chosen to attempt the rune, eh? Been ages since anyone's even made an attempt. The rune represents the very essence of our people, our culture, and our religion. Take a sea shell runed with enduring breath and a small brick of velium and grind them together in a mortar and pestle. Add water to the powder and model the rune. Fire the rune with water and the best of firing sheets. Show the product to Trademaster Kroven.'

'''Step 1'''

'''Head off to [[Siren's Grotto]] and kill Sirens until you get a [[Runed Sea Shell]] with one charge of Enduring Breath.'''

'''Step 1.1'''

Combine the [[Runed Sea Shell (Enduring Breath)|Runed Sea Shell (Enduring Breath)]] that has the effect: [[Enduring Breath]] and a [[Small Brick of Velium]] in a [[Mortar and Pestle]] or [[Mixing Bowl]] to get an [[Enchanted Velium Powder]] (No-Fail Combine).

:: {{SmIcon|1138}} 1 x [[Small Brick of Velium]] - Dropped

'''Step 1.2'''

Now combine the [[Enchanted Velium Powder]] and a [[Water Flask]] in a pottery wheel to get an [[Unfired Rune]] (Pottery Trivial 162, tradable).
* [[Pottery]] (Trivial:162)
** '''Unfired Rune''' x1
** In [[Pottery Wheel]]:
:: {{SmIcon|1075}} 1 x [[Enchanted Velium Powder]] - Crafted
:: {{SmIcon|584}} 1 x [[Water Flask]] - Bought

'''Step 1.3'''

Combine the [[Unfired Rune]] with a [[High Quality Firing Sheet]] and [[Water Flask]] in a kiln to receive a [[Blank Rune]] (Pottery Trivial 15).
* [[Pottery]] (Trivial:15)
** '''Blank Rune''' x1
** In [[Kiln]]:
:: {{SmIcon|969}} 1 x [[Unfired Rune]] - Crafted

'''Now show the rune (give the rune) to Trademaster Kroven (also in the Thurgadin Exchange).'''

: Trademaster Kroven says 'Fine piece of work there, Soandso, especially fer an outlander. Now yer gunna need to make a burin to etch the rune with. Once that's done ye need to kneel in the chapel and recite this prayer with total sincerity in yer heart. If yer plea be heard by our Father Brell he'll bless ya with the knowledge necessary to carry on. With that knowledge you'll take the blank rune, the burin and a fletching kit to etch the rune. Show [[Grimthor Brewbeard|Grimthor]] the etched rune and he'll guide you from there.'

'''He returns the blank rune and also gives you a Prayer to Brell.'''

You say, 'What burin?'

: Trademaster Kroven says 'You'll need a fletching kit and a fair bit of skill for this one, Soandso. Round up a tooth from a swordfish and attatch it to an Ulthork tusk wrapped in a Molkor hide.'

'''Step 2'''

'''Head to [[Siren's Grotto]] and get [[Swordfish Tooth]] from the swordfish and a [[Molkor Hide]] from the molkors (see [https://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=370772] for tips). You can also get [[Ulthork Tusks]] there but they're much easier to get in [[Eastern Wastes]] where you can kill the low level ulthorks. The [[Swordfish Tooth]] is NO DROP which is the only item actually forcing you to go into [[Siren's Grotto]].'''

'''Step 2.1'''

Combine the [[Ulthork Tusks]], [[Swordfish Tooth]], and [[Molkor Hide]] in a fletching kit to get [[Burin]] (Fletching Trivial 135).
* [[Fletching ]] (Trivial:135)
** '''Burin''' x1
** In [[Fletching Kit]]:
:: {{SmIcon|807}} 1 x [[Ulthork Tusks]] - Dropped
:: {{SmIcon|1137}} 1 x [[Swordfish Tooth]] - Dropped
:: {{SmIcon|554}} 1 x [[Molkor Hide]] - Dropped

'''Step 2.2'''

Go to the room where the quest started with the Grand Historian, stand on the floor in front of the altar (you might have to do this on top of the stage to get it to work; As a Gnome I had to be on the ground in front of the stage but not up against the stage; As an Iksar I had to stand on the stage AND in front of the lectern (talking to him from any other side of him did not work). The wood elf that did it before me had to be on the stage for him to get it to work.) and say the following prayer until you see a message saying you've been inspired. Type the message ''exactly'', including all punctuation (especially the final period):

You say, <nowiki>'</nowiki>Oh Brell, thank you for protecting me and seeing me through my trials. Forgive me for the things I think and say and do that displease you. Please reveal to me your will and bless me with the patience and obedience to do that which you desire. Amen.<nowiki>'</nowiki>

You have been inspired. The sacred pattern of the Coldain rune materializes on the ground before you.

On the floor in front of the Historian is an [[Etched Rune Pattern]].

'''Step 2.3'''

This [[Etched Rune Pattern]] needs to be combined with the [[Burin]] and [[Blank Rune]] in a fletching kit. This makes an [[Etched Rune]] (Fletching Trivia 168). '''Note''' -Upon a successful combine you will get back your Burin. If you fail a later combine, you can re-use the Burin to etch a second rune.

* [[Fletching ]] (Trivial:168)
** '''Etched Rune''' x1

:: {{SmIcon|801}} 1 x [[Burin]] - Crafted, Returned upon failure
:: {{SmIcon|972}} 1 x [[Blank Rune]] - Crafted

'''Show your Etched Rune to [[Grimthor Brewbeard]] by the brew barrel in Thurgadin.''' He returns it.


'''Step 3'''

: Grimthor Brewbeard says 'That looks about right. You're moving along well outlander. Next you'll be needin to brew up a sacred ink to fill the grooves in your rune. Take Iceclad Cutlass fish oil, liquid velium, and some Royal Kromrif blood, brew them in the barrel here then take the product and the rune and combine them in a fletching kit. Show Talem Tucter the resulting item if yer successful.

You say, 'What cutlass fish oil?'

: Grimthor Brewbeard says 'Grab a pole and fish the waters in Iceclad until you catch yourself three Iceclad Cutlass fish. Place them in this oil extractor and you'll have whatcha need.'

'''Receive [[Fish Oil Extractor]], a four-slot container.'''

You say, 'What liquid velium?'

: Grimthor Brewbeard says 'Collect a small piece of velium and a bottle of rubbing alcohol and brew them together in a barrel. It aint easy, but it should prove to be a minor task for the likes of you.'


'''Step 3.1'''

Fish in Iceclad until you get 3 [[Iceclad Cutlassfish]] and combine them in the [[Fish Oil Extractor]]. This results in [[Cutlassfish Oil]].
* [[Fishing ]] (Trivial:No-Fail)
** '''Cutlassfish Oil''' x1
** In [[Fish Oil Extractor]]:
:: {{SmIcon|775}} 3 x [[Iceclad Cutlassfish]] - Fishing

'''Step 3.2'''

Find some [[Rubbing Alcohol]] (bought from [[a mortician]] in Cabilis). Combine the [[Rubbing Alcohol]] and a [[Small Piece of Velium]] in a [[Brew Barrel]] to get [[Liquid Velium]] (Brewing Trivia 135).
* [[Brewing ]] (Trivial:135)
** '''Liquid Velium''' x1

Get some [[Royal Kromrif blood]] from Iceshard Manor in [[Kael Drakkel]].

'''Step 3.4'''

Combine the [[Liquid Velium]], [[Cutlassfish Oil]] and [[Royal Kromrif blood]] in a [[Brew Barrel]]. This results in a [[Sacred Velium Ink]] (Brewing Trivial 168).
* [[Brewing ]] (Trivial:168)

'''Step 3.5'''

Combine the [[Sacred Velium Ink]] and [[Etched Rune]] in a fletching kit to get a [[Velium Etched Rune]] (Fletching Trivial 168).
* [[Fletching]] (Trivial:168)

:: {{SmIcon|967}} 1 x [[Etched Rune]] - Crafted


'''Step 4'''

Go to the jewelry store in Thurgadin, close to the Exchange. Give the Velium Etched Rune to Talem Tucter.

: Talem Tucter says 'I've heard of your mission, Soandso. I must admit that I had my doubts you'd make it this far. The rune's creation is nearly impossible for even the most skilled of Coldain craftsmen. You should be exceedingly proud. Many have attempted this feat and nearly all have lacked the skill, faith, patience and persistence that is prerequisite for what destiny holds in store for you. You are now ready to use this pattern to construct the sacred rune's casing and complete the runed shawl.'

He returns the Velium Etched Rune and also gives you a [[Rune Casing Pattern]].

You say, 'What casing?'

: Talem Tucter says 'Combine two platinum bars, a small piece of velium and the casing pattern in a Jeweler's kit. Take the completed casing and the rune and combine them in the same kit. When this is done all that's left is to tailor the rune to the shawl with the pattern. Take the finished product to Borannin, I'm sure he's eager to speak with you.'

'''Step 4.1'''

Combine the [[Rune Casing Pattern]], a [[Small Piece of Velium]] and 2 [[Platinum Bar]] in a [[Jeweler's Kit]] to receive the [[Rune Casing]] (Jewelry Trivial 152).

Take the [[Encased Velium Etched Rune]], [[Runed Prayer Shawl Pattern]] that you got from Betti for handing in shawl 6, and your {{:Embroidered Coldain Prayer Shawl}}. Combine them in a tailoring kit to receive your 7th Shawl: {{:Runed Coldain Prayer Shawl}} (Tailoring Trivial 162). If you happen to lose the [[Runed Prayer Shawl Pattern]] just give the 6th shawl To [[Betti Frostweaver]] again and she'll give you the pattern and your shawl back.

== Malmur’s Coldain Prayer Shawl Tips ==


Aaah… The {{:Runed Coldain Prayer Shawl}}! I was always interested in it on Live, but never had the stomach to chase it. With a lot of work, I did so here on P99 and have to say it was not as awful as I suspected it would be.

'''Foreword'''

It is best to not look at the Coldain Prayer Shawl quest as an ‘overnight’ quest, but one you do piece by piece. Giving yourself a quota on what you need done and pacing yourself can really reduce burn out. Some tradeskills will be easier than others. The purpose of this guide is to add an addendum of tips to the excellent guide already on P99 Wiki.

You will need at least 6000pp to complete this quest. Most of that money will be spent in jewelcrafting, but you can mitigate prices with CHA buffs and ensuring you sell some things back. Some buffs to your INT or WIS can also make your skillpoints rise faster. There are a few instances you can make money back that we’ll discuss in this guide.

Some things you can do right off the bat are to (1. see how many skill points you have with your class guildmaster and (2. get yourself a few [[Hand Made Backpack]]s. Extra slots can really help when it comes to tradeskills.

Protip: Hold down Shift when you click on a stack to pick up the entire stack, hold CTRL to grab a single item. This will make your life so much easier. It makes tradeskill leveling so much faster and saves your arm/hand a lot of pain. You can also hold shift when buying/selling from merchants to buy/sell an entire stack of items. Same goes for holding CTRL to buy/sell single items to a merchant.

An overview on where tradeskills need to be for 100% trivial combines…

[[Baking]]: 127

Baking is a very easy skill to level up utilizing the guide. By carrying around a spit and components you can sit in a camp doing combines in your spare time. It is a cheap and easy process. '''Remember, store all food items in lower bags than your regular food/drink!''' You might accidentally eat them, and some components are annoyingly rare.

[[Pottery]]: 162

Pottery can be annoying but is not very costly. You must be both near a merchant for pottery supplies and use the pottery wheel/kiln. Clay blocks also do not stack, so you will be making multiple trips. One of the good things in bringing this skill up to 148 is you do not need to use the kiln and can just keep making clay items and disposing of them through drop or destroy. When you get to 148, you then have to make vials that have components that you can’t get from the pottery merchant. I would not sweat it, as your final pottery combine that requires 162 can be done by another person with 162 in pottery and handed back to you! Consider it a shortcut. I feel Thurgadin Bank is the best place to do this tradeskill since you do not have to wander far.

[[Tailoring]]: 208

I struggled with tailoring the most due to components. Getting to 160 is a tough task. You will want to farm or purchase a couple dozen stacks of spider silk. Furthermore, you will be spending a bit of time in [[Crystal Caverns]] clearing the lvl 30 spiders again and again to get crystalline spider silk. The good news is spiders there drop lots of medallions, jewelry, and gems. Take them and sell them, as this paid for both Tailoring and Fletching for me. I’d bring my sewing kit, so you can save slots by turning the silk into swatches to make more inventory space. I probably went through 24-30 stacks. Until you get to the later Wu’s Armor sets you can do it in a large sewing kit, but when there are too many components you have to use a loom. I personally preferred the one at Outpost in OT.

When you get to 160, you’re in a bit of trouble. The guide for tailoring insists you do quivers, but the truth is those lion hides are very rare drops and you need countless ones. Wyvern Armor is a better avenue.

Brewing is related closely to this skill, as you will need to make [[Heady Kiola]]s. Hundreds of them. I found I would make 10 stacks, do my combines in tailoring, and then make more Heady Kiolas.

Feeling lucky? I brought my tailoring up to 160 and did my 208 combine. I was lucky to get the component on my first shot. Risky combines can eat up components, but you can never lose your shawl piece doing them. I personally feel it is easier chasing down the components for the 208 combine to try it multiple times compared to the hundreds of combines of rarer/more expensive components. I got lucky, but it was a sound strategy.

Your final tailoring combine in 162. I did it at 160 and was fine, but I did add a little risk to the combine. At that point components are more painful, so consider doing wyvern armor combine to 162.

[[Brewing]]: 168 

Brewing is not the hardest of skills, but often requires many components and keeps you trapped beside a brew barrel for quite a while. Thurgadin has all of the components you need to get to 168. You may find yourself doing brewing more for tailoring than bringing up the skill itself! 

A quick way to 151 brewing is doing [[Skull Ale]]

[[Jewelcraft]]: 162

Jewelcraft (JC) moves quickly and can be done in a couple hours. You only combine two components; leaving you with a very smooth series of combines and sells when you run out of space. Get yourself a CHA buff and bank all of your negative CHA items (Hello, fellow Necromancers!) to reduce costs tremendously. Increase your INT/WIS to reduce the number of combines you must do. It is very costly, often taking up to 3000pp! I have seen folks half that with proper buffs. I recommend just hitting the jewelry store in Thurgadin.

[[Fletching]]: 168

Fletching can be knocked out in a couple hours. You can carry the kit around with you to make arrows. It can get a little costly toward the end, but I enjoyed giving stacks of arrows to tanks in guild. You might not have the best quality arrows depending on the combines you did, but free is free. This skill cost me somewhere between 300pp-400pp.

'''Quest Protips'''

Try and duo with a friend when you can, but the quest can be done solo by a 50-60 person. The great thing about the Coldain Prayer Shawl is whether you are an epic raider or super casual you can both obtain the item if you are willing to put the work into it.

Pace yourself. Do a bit at a time. There is no rush.

When getting [[Siren Hair]]s you’re better off doing it in [[Cobalt Scar]]. Also, get yourself some [[Excellent Siren Scales]] for the [[Wenglawks Manly Purse]] quest. Great item.

Many components for the final combines can be purchased. [[Molkor Hide]]s are very prized items and sell very well due to this quest. Consider them a good farming item if you can handle SG well enough.

It cannot be understated that [[Siren's Grotto]] is a very dangerous place. You have at least one component you must get from this zone. Work with a Druid who can charm sea horses and other monsters. I’m a fairly powerful Necromancer, but monsters there summon and have HP that is ridiculous. Druids and Enchanters do well here with charm. A friendly one hunting let me loot the NO DROP component I needed!

Work with other people. This is what makes Classic EQ great! You will bump into others getting components for their own shawls. Help them with buffs, advice, and team up when you can. Save extra components to help other folks running the quest. Guildmates also appreciate spare items you may come across!


== A note on tailoring ==

As mentionned above, most people go 162 tailoring instead of the 208 trivial and attempt the shawl with a 57,5% success rate.

Tailoring is indeed very expensive and time consuming. The drop rate on the most farmed fur/hides to skill up is around 10% and on most recipes, there are other components that are tedious to come by, taking forever to solo farm. If you go the market route, assuming you can find sellers, the cheapest combines will cost you around 60pp per try. Seeing you need around 10 combines for 1 skill up on average with a 255 main stat, we're talking of an investment of at least 30 000pp just to get from 158 to 208. If you don't have that kind of money, it will take you a couple hundred hours to farm the materials.

On the other hand, I've personally failed the shawl 6 times at 165 tailoring, meaning I had to gather the materials 7 times. The manticore manes and the frost giant beards are easy but the wolf whiskers and the siren hair seem to have a 5-10%ish drop rate. The wolves are easy but the sirens are a very annoying farm for many classes despite their relatively low level. Some are clumped up, most of the fights are underwater, they hit hard and cast haste, damage shield, charm, slow, tash, dispel, dot and nuke. They also ruin your siren's grotto faction so not many able players will be willing to help you.

All this to say yes, the 162 route is cheaper but be warned even though it is probably faster, it still remains a major pain if you're unlucky with combines. I've done half of it during a double loot xmas week and despite being relatively patient, it still was a very frustrating and annoying undertaking, I just don't want to imagine doing it as many times under normal loot rules. I could still solo all the drops though, so if it is difficult or impossible for your class and you need help doing it and doing it 6 times isn't really an option, going over 162 tailoring will help you with that but it is a tough pill to swallow if you didn't have any plans to actually raise tailoring to 200-250.

Good luck.
