Starting the QuestEdit

2. Gather 10 dwarven war artifacts found around the memorial. This is ground spawn and does not actually go into your inventory.
3. Return to Captain R.K. Irontoe in Kelethin and give him the artifact.
4. Inspect the goblin caves in Echo Echo Canyon: interact with a strongbox ( 3, -43, -295 ) /waypoint 3, -43, -295 , it is next to Turkrik in the Shroomba Subterrane area of the Greater Faydark. (In caves take first left, and then two rights to get to box. Reverse to get back to entrance.)
5. Interact with another strongbox (which looks like an attackable creature strongbox) ( 284, 61, -143 ) /waypoint 284, 61, -143  in a tent on Orc Hill.
6. Examine the scroll ( 254, 67, -182 ) /waypoint 254, 67, -182  in another tent on Orc Hill.

8. Ring the gong ( 287, 61, -154 ) /waypoint 287, 61, -154  outside the tent.
9. Find and defeat the Crushbone spies by looking for the reddish sparkles and the mouseover infobox, orc scribbling, that mark their spy posts (see the discussion page of this article for more info). In general they can be triggered as follow:
   • by the passageway to Butcherblock Mountains at ( 746, 14, -71 ) /waypoint 745.99, 13.99, -70.57 . He spawns on top of the root above your head, so look up if you can't find him. You may receive the message "The orc spy has not reached his post yet", which means you may need to wait a few minutes.
   • along a branch leading off of the Old Kelethin platform at ( 155, 111, 79 ) /waypoint 154.98, 110.85, 79.11 . Use the Old Kelethin Acorn Lift to get there.
   • underneath Memorial Hill at ( -178, 4, -15 ) /waypoint -177.74, 3.71, -15.06 

10. 

    Speak to The Mushroom King at ( -145, -9, 142 ) /waypoint -144.78, -9.38, 141.77 
11. Go to Tunare's Glade ( -252, 36, 363 ) /waypoint -252, 36, 363  to:
    • Collect 10 a Brook Patch toadstools - they do NOT show up using Track Harvestables but do show up on Tracking
    • Kill 20 Fayflies
12. Speak to The Mushroom King and he will give you the shrool dust.
13. Sprinkle the dust on a strongbox ( 284, 61, -143 ) /waypoint 284, 61, -143  in a tent on Orc Hill.
14. Examine the dwarven ringmail plans and find the nine copies that have been distributed among the various orcish military personnel for safe keeping:
    • Kill the Sullon Brigade warsmith ( -655, 80, -257 ) /waypoint -655, 80, -257 in the first orc valley (1st copy)
    • Kill the Vallon Brigade warsmith ( -750, 70, -75 ) /waypoint -750, 70, -75 in the first orc valley (2nd copy)
    • Kill the Derris Brigade warsmith ( -840, 97, 10 ) /waypoint -840, 97, 10 in the first orc valley (3rd copy)
    • Kill the Tallon Brigade warsmith ( -1080, 115, 205 ) /waypoint -1080, 115, 205 in the second orc valley through the cave to Crushbone (4th copy)
    • Kill the Gullon Brigade warsmith ( -1392, 116, 175 ) /waypoint -1392, 116, 175 in the second orc valley through the cave to Crushbone (5th copy)
    • Kill Crushbone Expedition Leader** ( -746, 80, -194 ) /waypoint -745.95, 79.71, -194.19 in the first orc valley (6th copy) - This used to be in the same spot as the Weaponsmith and is now in a nearby camp.
    • Kill Crushbone Expedition Chef** ( -778, 90, -262 ) /waypoint -778, 90, -262 in the first orc valley (7th copy)
    • Kill Crushbone Expedition Weaponsmith** ( -790, 88, -216 ) /waypoint -790, 88, -216 in the first orc valley (8th copy)
    • Kill Crushbone Expedition Planner** ( -730, 96, -262 ) /waypoint -730, 96, -262 in the first orc valley (9th copy)
      • About the Crushbone Expedition Officers: The officers have placeholders (PHs). The PHs are groups of 3 Crushbone footmen. A Crushbone camp builder or Crushbone supply runner will go through the area stopping to spawn the camps; you'll have a better chance of finding the expedition officers if you leave him alone to do his job. Also, the Expedition Leader and Expedition Weaponsmith share the same spawn points.
      • Note about updates: In order to get the copies off of these encounters, you have to kill the ENTIRE group, not just the named mob. If you need to, you can run to break the ecounter and finish it when you heal up.
15. The quest will then update saying to use the keys to open the lockerboxes in the keep.
16. Enter Crushbone Keep and examine the 4 chests inside the first room. Two chests are to the right on the same wall. Two chests are to the left on opposite walls.
17. Return to Captain R.K. Irontoe in Kelethin ( 136, 112, 98 ) /waypoint 136, 112, 98 to return all the dwarven ringmail plans to him. See discussion page if he is not where he is supposed to be.
