What does this information mean?
Materials Required[]
- 20 dewpalm lumber
- 1 flitterfin tang
- 20 iridium cluster
- 15 nimbic hide
- 10 panther meat
- 60 reef cluster
- 63 silvered fleck
- 62 strangler root

Notes[]
- Bringing along portable work stations (or having the AA ability to summon them) is helpful.
- Helfa Lightleaf in the Salt Breeze camp ( 3644, -1018, 1669 ) sells fuel if you need some.
- Click the mining cart down the southwest tunnel at ( 252, 0, 33 ) to obtain the recipe for Tinkered Explosives. Explosives clear rock and dirt faster, but are dangerous both to make and use (gnomish things that go BOOM!).
* You must be adventure level 20 or higher to use the Live Capture Net on "a monstrous beast." I petitioned it on 2/16/2024. < This comment has already been moved once to the appropriate discussions page >
Steps[]
- Enter and investigate An Unfinished Mine [Solo Tradeskill] Zone in at ( 3834, -1021, 1886 ) .
- Craft some Sturdy Shovels and Sturdy Picks on the anvil at ( 179, 9, -164 ) just inside the mine.
- These tools degrade as you use them, they can't be repaired.
- There is a lot more rock than dirt. Craft four picks for quest; optional one shovel.
- ALL crafted implements will disappear from inventory once the beast is captured and the instance exited.
- Equip a tool and start clearing your way into the mine caves.
- Wearing your harvesting gear speeds up the clearing process.
- Not every rock and dirt pile needs to be removed, just enough to clear your way down the southeast tunnel.
- at ( 103, -4, -30 ) you hear a "SCCCRREEEEECHHHH!!!" from a monstrous beast
- Locate a monstrous beast at ( 12, -15, -59 )
- Step into the beast's area and the Recipe Scroll: Live Capture Net will pop-up.
- scribe the Recipe Scroll: Live Capture Net and create a Live Capture Net on a Work Bench.
- Can be crafted on rhe anvil at the entrance at ( 179, 9, -164 )
- Target the beast and use the net.
- Put the beast in the cage outside the mine ( 3848, -1019, 1852 ) .
- The mine exit is at ( 167, 8, -159 ) .
- Speak again to Whilhelm Nam'terin at ( 3822, -1020, 1863 )
.
- Craft some Sturdy Shovels and Sturdy Picks on the anvil at ( 179, 9, -164 ) just inside the mine.
