Saving Soles

This is the quest for the Golden Efreeti Boots. It is given by Charly Ashlash in Lavastorm. He roams the goblin area near -323, -130, +355. You must speak the goblin tongue to receive this quest. See related quests for informatoin on how to learn goblin.

Before Charly will deal with you he asks you to destroy some monsters in Lavastorm. You must slay:

50 Crawlers - Lava crawlers just past the goblins 50 Drakes - Volcanu and the lizards near the entrance both give credit here.

After doing this return to him. He will give you an Old Worn Right Boot. Examine the boot and the quest will update.

You must find the corpse of a smelly fish to bait "The Big Squiggly". The fish it is referring to is a level 47 solo fish named "Foulgill the Rotten" who spawns near the docks. His placeholder is "A Slightly Smelly Fish" that spawns at -176, -138, +544 and has a 6 minute spawn time, in the water underneath the docks.

After killing the fish you will be given 2 hours the bait the trap for "The Big Squiggly". This trap is a bit deeper in the zone where a named goblin spawns but not very deep. (-566.25, -112.93, +410.23) It will look like a pile of underbrush. Have everyone right click and bait the trap and "a hungry goblin" will run up to the trap.

Immediately following this "The Big Squiggly" will spawn and attack the group. He is level 48 or 49 ^^. He hits quite hard and has an AE that has a DoT of around 50 dmg, We suggest taking a full group. After killing him you will recieve the right boot.

The next step is to find an Efreeti to make sure the boots are truly Efreeti made. The Efreeti your looking for is Tazgar the Efreeti in the Temple of Solusek Ro in Lavastorm. When you speak to him 4 mobs will spawn. Kill them and speak to him again.

EDITOR'S NOTE: As of LU20 a dragon can sometimes spawn in Tazgar's room. We are not sure if this will stay or be moved.

He will then send you to Solusek's Eye to kill fire giants until you receive a key. This is a semi-rare auto-updating drop. The giants are in deep, past the golems.

Once you have the key you use it to disable the spires in Lavstorm. They are located at:

- Number one is in the goblins area near the first hill and it's guarded sometimes by four epic gobs (-634, -111, 301). - Number two is just past the temple on the way to Sol Eye, in a pit guarded by a bunch of drakes. Easy to find if you just hang a right and hold the wall upon exiting Temple area (120, -5, -465). - Number three is up the final summit past the golems, right next to the gate that leads you to the FGs guarding Sol Eye door (-115, 19, 75). - Number four is at Buglegreeder (-440, -99, 119). - Number five is in the middle of the lava fields area just before the summit to the temple (-567, -28, -410).

It's probably a good idea to finish with number three, since that's closest to The Magolemus.

Once the spires have been disabled you must defeat The Magolemus. This is a new level 50 ^^^ Group x 2 mob who is located outside of Solusek's Eye in Lavastorm. He will not become targetable until after the spires are disabled. You used to have 15 minutes to kill him or he would despawn, this may have recently been changed. He procs a single target knockback on your main tank, so be sure to have his back to a wall.

After killing him an NPC will spawn, you must hail this NPC. You must then reactivate the spires that you disabled earlier. After reactivating them you need to return to speak to Tazgar.

You must then kill Efreeti Lord Djarn. He is located in the Bastion of Flames. This is an access zone which is entered through Solusek's Eye quest by the name of The Efreeti Bastion (see related quests).

After killing Efreeti Lord Djarn you can return to Tazgar for your reward.
