Walkthrough

An undead foreman may be found at +2385, +3305.

You say, 'Hail, an undead foreman'

an undead foreman turns to face you. You can see a faint green glow emanating from his vacant eye sockets. 'Are you a [new worker]? Huh? Speak or go!!'

You say, 'I am a new worker.'

an undead foreman says 'Hmmph!! Too much flesh!! If you want to work, you must first fill my eye sockets with my favorite gem. This shall be your payment for your Sledgehammer.'

His favorite gem is jade. Give him a Jade.

an undead foreman places the gem deep into his hollow eye socket. He pulls a giant sledgehammer from thin air and hands it to you. 'Here!! You shall be assigned to the lower decks of the Scaled Trident.'

You receive Worker Sledgemallet and no experience, faction hits, or coin.

Please note that if using a charm technique to obtain the mallet, the undead foremen has very high resist rates. (Four of Five Kintaz resisted and 2 of three Boltrans on 255 cha enchanter at level 55)

Raising Venril Sathir Faction

The turn-in requires amiable or higher faction standing with Venril Sathir. The quickest way to raise faction is to kill dragons in Veeshan's Peak. Alternatively, charm gives the charmer amiable faction, so Enchanters, Necromancers (undead charm spell), Bards, or anyone with Puppet Strings can perform the quest turn-in while charming the undead foreman. Enchanters/Bards can also use Dark Elf illusion and Benevolence/Cinda's Charismatic Carillon to raise their faction to amiable if you haven't reduced faction while leveling.


To raise faction the old-fashion way, complete the Protect the Shipyard quest.

  • Turning in four sarnak war braids appears to give you +4.5 to Venril Sathir.
  • Faction amounts per consider level, from this table.
    • Amiable: 51 to 450
    • Indifferent: -49 to 50
    • Apprehensive: -449 to -50
    • Dubious: -699 to -450
    • Threatening: -1049 to -700
    • Scowls: -2000 to -1050

The New Worker quest turn-in table is below. List each 4 Braid turn-in as one turn-in. Only list a number if its the complete range. e.g. You just turned in braids and moved from threatening to dubious then you keep track of how many it takes to go from dubious to apprehensive.
