Complete Walkthrough for Knorr

[Ziv]

Pre quest:
- bring your old mage armor with you (has to be kindled)
- make sure you have someone with lockpick (needed for runic helm and weapons)
- bring two M notes (and some MMDs if you have a habit of dying)
- be prepared for lots of olthoi



Abandoned Mine (34.9N 54.5E) >>> Abandoned Mines To Qalaba'r Subway (34.9N 54.5E) >>> Azaroth Cottages Portal (74.8S 17.8E) >>> Stonehold Portal (85.8N 27.6W)


Talk to the Lugian in the Barn in gold armor. Give him an M note (or two).

Use the gem. Answers to the riddles are: book, mead, shield - in that order.

Talk to the Warden Golem (this activates the ability to get more gems from the luggie at an MMD each)

(Buff for Diamond Golems)
Go behind the Golem, up the ramps to a cafe type area. There are 3 "rows" of the small rooms with tables, in the middle one, you can go really far east or west - go there. Take the ramp up when you find it. All the way at the end of the hall is a locked room (402 diff lockpick) with 3 keys in it. Defender Key is for the Helm, Sentinal for Mace, Elder for UA. Work your way back to the main room with the Warden.

(Buff for Olthoi)
--UA & Mace--
Take the Barracks portal (last one in East hall). Go north out the door, take a left. You'll hit a bunch of evisc on some catwalks. Take the first left and head into the hall. Follow the hall to a large room with 3 doors on the far wall. Take the right door and hit the flaming torch (it's a lever). This opens a door in the middle room. Take the ramp up and follow the hall into another room. Open the locked door (402 skill i think) and go up the ramp to the room with two chests in it. Elder Chest has the Cresent Moons UA weapon, Sentinal Chest has the Sceptre of Thunderous Might mace.

(Buff for Olthoi)
--Helm--
Take the Barracks portal (last one in East hall). Go north out the door, take a left. You'll hit a bunch of evisc on some catwalks. Go straight onto the catwalks and follow them to the next X intersection. Go straight into the hall there. Follow the hall, and you'll reach another set of catwalks that curve around and hit a ramp hallway. Follow that down, and you'll be at a large hall with many doors on either side. The first door on the Left is locked (402 again, i think) this room has the Defender Chest in it. Use the Defender Key on it and TADA, you've got your helm.

(Buff for Olthoi)
--Infusion Orbs--
Take the Catalyst Research Chambers portal. Choose Red, Blue or Aqua. For Red, take a right at the first T intersection, then a right again after the bookcase. If you've got a melee with you, you can clear the olthoi from behind the door. In the room is a pedistal with a light shinning on it. The orbs are there (~10 second spawn). Take one for each piece of armor (3) and one for the helm. For Blue, take the opposite path. Left, then left after the bookcase. For Aqua, take either path and go through the hall on the far side of whichever room you chose (red or blue). Use the orbs on each piece of armor & helm.

(Buff for Olthoi Guardians - piece/acid/slash/blud)
--Making the Armor--
Take the Conveyance Forge portal. Go straight through the door and you will come to a 3 way intersection. Take either the right or left hall, the center one is a dead end. Follow the hall until you come to a series of small rooms with Guardians in them. If you have a melee, clearing the forge room from behind the door will be fairly easy, if no melee, form a wall so they can't swarm you. Once cleared, use the armor pieces on the forge itself (Large mound). You can perch on the smaller forges if need be.
A theory on which type of helm you get says that you should use the armor itself on the forge first, and the helm last. But I don't know if there's any weight to that.
