Welcome to 2008!!

Did the new quest tonight (Dealing with Scarabasas).

The quest itself was annoying in that I made a lot of mistakes. Otherwise it wasn't too bad. Energy pots are your friend on this one. I like the puzzles and the fact that this quest very much rewards well rounded characters. The thing that surprised me was that the smithing was only bronze. I would have thought it would make more sense to make it steel or mithril considering the other quest requirements. (I think the whole thing is a south desert achievement diary of random things)

This quest has 2 mini quests. One involves Simon Templeton. Easy, good reward if you ever want to do serious thieving. Makes sense etc.

The other one....hmm...the other one....I'm still working on. Going on hour 4 I think. Basically you have to finish the Scarabas Research Diary. Requires what looks like 20+pages to be collected. I've gotten to 71 Strength and 71 Attack on this one and I'm still collecting.

Hey there, Jax.

I've just worked on the new quest and I may have a hint for you.
Try and make your way back to the 'beetle' high priest. In the large room, just before his room, in the north east of it there is a grand silver trimmed chest. I managed to open it once and gained a log entry from it. It locked itself again right after, so it would seem that you might be able to open it again and gain some loot. Note though; there are plenty of scarab archers and mages so you may only be able to take one at the time at the most before you have to tele out. If it doesn't contain multiple logs then you'll at least have gained one. It's worth the try at least. Good luck.

Okay, don't know if this thing works with all this identity choosing. Here goes....
