Walkthrough
Edit
Start
Edit
Speak to Grish, located at Jiggig (south of the Castle Wars entrance). He
will talk about Zogres (Zombie ogres) coming from the ground and making people
sick. Ask if you can help, and progress through the conversation. Grish will
give you two Super restore potions and three Cooked chompy birds.
Talk to the Ogre guard to the east. After mentioning Grish, he will remove
the barricade to allow you inside the Zogre-infested area.
Run east to a set of stairs going downward. Take these stairs.
The cave
Edit
Fighting the zombie.
Note: You may now (or have already) become diseased if under 89 Combat, and a
Zogre or Skogre (level 44) attacks you. From now on, make sure you carry Super
restore potions with you! The disease will temporarily reduce a random skill by
up to 10 levels every minute or so!
Proceed north-west to an area with a blackened floor. There will be a short
cutscene.
Search the skeleton, a zombie will appear and attack. Kill it to obtain a
ruined backpack.
Open the backpack to obtain a Dragon inn tankard, some rotten food and a
knife.
Search the broken lectern. You will find a torn page that contained a
spell.
Attempt to search the coffin nearest to the skeleton, and then use a knife on
it. The lock should unlock. Try opening the coffin (it may take a couple of
tries). When the coffin is open, search it to obtain a Black prism.
Backtrack and exit the cave, running back to the barricade - or simply use
the Nightmare Zone teleport that is located in the red mini-game section of the
quest tab.
Yanille
Edit
Proceed to Yanille.
Go to the Dragon Inn and use the tankard on the bartender. The bartender will
explain that the tankard belonged to Brentle Vahn, a not-so-moral customer who
had been seen with a shady wizard.
Talk to Zavistic Rarve in the Magic Guild. If you don't have the required
level to enter the guild, ring the front bell and Rarve will appear outside.
After seeing the prism and torn page, Rarve will tell you to talk to Sithik Ints
in the guest house north of the guild.
Incriminating Sithik
Edit
Sithik is turned into an ogre.
Proceed to the top floor of the guest house. Sithik is in the west bed. Talk
to him, and he will deny any connection to the Zogres. When you raise
allegations, Sithik will challenge you to find facts. We need to show a picture
of Sithik to the bartender to see if he was the wizard seen with Brentle.
Search the drawers, the cupboard and the wardrobe. You will find a Book of
portraiture, a Necromancy book, papyrus and charcoal, and a Book of 'h.a.m'.
Read all three books.
Use the Book of Portraiture on Sithik. He will recommend trying
portraiture.
Draw a portrait of Sithik by using the papyrus on Sithik. When you're done,
use the portrait on Sithik. If Sithik appreciates the "truth" of the portrait,
then the portrait isn't realistic enough and you need to try again. Search the
drawers for more papyrus and sketch him again. With an accurate portrait, Sithik
will appreciate the "honesty" of the portrait.
Take the portrait and the tankard back to the bartender. The bartender will
recognise Sithik and will sign the portrait as an affidavit.
Talk to Zavistic Rarve while holding the Necromancy book, the Book of
'h.a.m.', the tankard and the signed portrait. This will be enough evidence for
Rarve to give you a Strange potion, which he will instruct you to use on Sithik
and then leave the house.
Use the potion on the cup of tea on top of Sithik's dresser.
Go downstairs and back upstairs. Sithik will have turned into an ogre.
Talk to Sithik, and he will confess. Obtain answers to all three questions in
order to make Relicym's balm and Brutal arrows.
Making Relicym's Balm
Edit
After Sithik Ints has revealed the secret to making Relicym's balm, having it
on hand in the final fight will help tremendously. It is your choice to obtain
this now; however, the quest can be done without it. The balm is also
tradeable.
Relicym's Balm is made like any potion, it uses Rogue's purse as herb and
Snake weed as secondary ingredient.
It is HIGHLY recommended to make this and give it to Uglug Nar. This will
give access to a store selling 100 Relicym's balm (3). The store also has 100
Achey logs, 10 bow strings, 10 cooked chompy and 5 knives in stock.
Making Brutal Arrows
Edit
Brutal arrows are the best way to kill Zogres, and shooting them from a
composite ogre bow is the best strategy in the final fight. It is your choice to
obtain them; however, the quest can be done without it. To make the arrows, cut
down Achey trees. After, fletch them into Ogre arrow shafts (each log will give
2-6 shafts). Then, add feathers to the shafts (Each shaft needs 4 feathers).
Finally, to make the Brutal Arrows, use nails (made of any metal), with a hammer
in inventory on the Flighted ogre arrow. Each time you do this, it will make six
arrows at a time.
Relocating the Ceremonial Grounds
Edit
Attacking Slash Bash from a distance.
Return to Grish and tell him what Sithik told you.
Also, tell him that you have some other questions for him, and you want to
talk about the quest. Go through each option.
Grish will give you a key to obtain access to the ceremonial chamber.
Prepare for a rather tough fight. The Zogre (named Slash Bash) that will
attack you is level 111 and attacks with both a Melee and a Ranged attack. Your
best bet is to make some Brutal arrows and fire them with an composite ogre bow.
Learn to make the bow from Grish by telling him, "There must be an easier way to
kill these zogres", or if you're a mage using Crumble Undead is a very viable
option. However, this boss can also be killed without too much difficulty using
the Magic Entangle/Cast pattern. Prepare according to how you would like to
fight, but in any case it is recommended that you bring multiple Super restore
potions.
Return to the cave beyond the barricade and head west. There will be two
successive locked doors, proceed through these and descend the stairs.
Proceed to the end of this long, wide room and search the stand.
A level 111 Zogre named Slash Bash will attack you. If using Ranged, find a
safe spot and range the Zogre using Protect from Ranged. If maging, cast
Entangle or Snare followed by a wave attack or Crumble Undead while using
Protect from Ranged, or simply use the safe spot while protecting from Ranged.
Fire Blast maxes out at 4 against this boss, so make sure to bring enough casts.
Alternatively, with decent armour (Rune or better) you can melee the boss down
with little to no trouble. Poisoning the boss with a poisoned Dragon Dagger
helps. In either case, your Prayer will drain very fast so make sure you use
Super restore potions when you need them. Once the Zogre is dead, collect the
bones and the artefact that he drops.
Return to Grish for your reward.MORE:
