Dlammaz Stormslayer may be found at -1174, 1619, -145. He is on King Tormax faction.

You say, 'Hail, Dlammaz Stormslayer'

Dlammaz Stormslayer says 'Welcome to the castle of King Tormax. It is quite an accomplishment for one of your kind to have lived this long in the service of our great King Tormax. You must be powerful indeed. My power is like a storm - I may rage and destroy my foes with great fury.

You say, 'What foes?'

Dlammaz Stormslayer says 'The dragons are the greatest threat to Kael Drakkel. For some reason they believe that this land we inhabit is holy and should not be tread upon. I cannot count the number of wurms I have beaten back from the gates of Kael Drakkel in the past. We giants will live on, though, for each year their numbers thin and ours only grow. With the help of mercenaries such as yourself we may be able to eradicate them from the face of Velious.

You say, 'Eradicate?'

Dlammaz Stormslayer says 'I dream of the day when the only dragons in Velious are the ones whose skins line my boots. Some day my dream will come true. Until the day I can gather a force powerful enough to assault their homes, I will slay whatever foul beasts tread near Kael Drakkel.

You say, 'Assault their homes?'

Dlammaz Stormslayer says 'That is an aspiration of King Tormax. One day, it may be possible for us to do so. Encountering so many dragons at once may very well be suicide though. Enough of my banter about dragons. What is it that brings you to Dragon Death Keep? Do you seek more challenging tasks?

You say, 'I seek more challenging tasks.'

Dlammaz Stormslayer says 'If you are as mighty as I believe you to be, travel out from this city and fight off the draconian menace. For the head of an elder dragon you will be handsomely rewarded.

You say, 'What reward?'

Dlammaz Stormslayer pats the huge axe at his side and drapes his shimmering cloak over his shoulders.

You say, 'What axe?'

Dlammaz Stormslayer says 'My axe is named Frostbringer. It was given to me by the great King Tormax for my service to him. Serving the king can be quite advantageous.

You say, 'What cloak?'

Dlammaz Stormslayer says 'The cloak of the Maelstrom allows me to rage like a great storm. It is but a simple possession - the head of an elder dragon would be worth far more to my kind.

Dragons in the Western Wastes sometimes drop heads when killed. There are two types: Great and Greater.

A Great Dragon's Head results in the Cloak of the Maelstrom.

A Greater Dragon's Head results in Frostbringer.

Upon hand-in:


Dlammaz Stormslayer says 'We shall hang this head from the halls of Dragondeath Keep and sing your praises, ______. Take my axe as a reward for your great deeds. You are a true hero for Kael Drakkel!'

Easy way to raise faction to do Tormax faction quest is to kill the dain a few times in Thug. Kill him and a few of the guards around him to raise Tormax faction. Its that or do alot of stupid quests that take you a year to raise faction just one bit. I turned in over 100 dwarf heads to Capt in the bank<forget his name> and it hardly moved my faction, I killed a few royal guards in Thug and bam Amiably now.


Give dlammazz a
Greater head for a Frostbinder
Great head for a Cloak

Give the other guy dont know his name a great head and you get the boots or the shoulder items

YOU need Kindly or better for tomax quests

how much faction you need?

Don't turn them in here, they give no Tormax faction.
Getting Frostbringer
# Apr 30 2001 at 9:51 AM Rating: Default
Ive just done this quest this weekend. To get a Frostbringer you need KINDLY faction with King Tormax and a GREATER dragon head that you give to Dlammaz Stormslayer.
It took me 131 coldain heads from Eastern Wastes to get to Kindly faction, and believe me its as boring as hell.
Ive heard that a quicker way to do it is to kill Royal guards in Icewell Keep and to hand in their heads. Need a couple of high 50's groups to do this easily though.

I completely agree getting this faction is boring as hell! I've been killing dwarfs in GD for the past week and im still dubious to Tormax after turning in probably 50 to 60 coldain heads. Oh and if anyone on Terris Thule reads this and wants to sell any coldain heads send me a tell in game, im paying 75pp for each head!

Ok, there's too much misinformation here - I can't stand it. Here's the deal:
There are two mobs in Kael that want dragon heads: Kyenka(in Tormax's room) and Dlammaz Stormslayer(near Gleed, by the ice bridge)...

Kyenka wants a Great Dragon Head, in return you will randomly receive either barbed dragonscale boots or barbed dragonscale pauldrons. Don't worry, neither are lore and both are tradeable, so you can do this quest as often as you like.

Dlammaz Stormslayer wants either a Great Dragon Head or a Greater Dragon Head (don't worry about his request for an elder dragon head, there ain't no such thing). For a Great, you receive the cloak. For a Greater you receive the axe. That's it.

Are these heads no drop?.... Also How many people does it take to kill these dragons... Thanks
Ummm wtf?
# Apr 06 2001 at 11:48 PM Rating: Default
Ok from what Ive been reading on web pages was that turning in a GREAT dragon head would give you a Frostbringer. With Tormax faction at kindly, I turned in the great dragon head to Dlammaz and got the cloak of the maelstrom. Is this supposed to happen? I thought it wasnt random and I would get the frostbringer for it. Argh!

I have handed in more Coldain Heads than I can count. I have Dlammaz to Amiable, but he still wont continue dialogue from 'what foes'. Tormax is amiable as well, and he has no problem giving out the quests he has. WTF?...Do you need to be Kindly?
This is how the quest works:
# Mar 10 2001 at 5:57 PM Rating: Default
There are 3 types of heads from Western wastes, I dunno wtf a greater and lesser head is... The three heads are A great dragon's head, a greater dragon's head, and a elder dragon's head. The heads can be given to 1 of two different people, there names elude me atm, but they are the two people that are on the sides of Tormax (not the guards that are RIGHT next to him, the ones near the walls, on the sides). The great head gives barbed dragonscale boots OR a cloak of maelstrom. The greater head gives barbed dragonscale pauldrons OR a frostbringer. Im not sure what the elder heads yield, but the result is NOT RANDOM, it just depends who you give the head to, there are 2 npc's that ask for the heads.
Faction.

Wrong heads and wrong npc, this quest is done with Greater heads given to dlammazz.

The boots come from Kyenka and great dragon heads.
Which TYPE of head?
# Feb 20 2001 at 4:44 AM Rating: Default
Which type of head does he want. Great / Greater or a differnet type?

RE: Which TYPE of head?
# Feb 20 2001 at 4:18 PM Rating: Default
in my time hunting in WW I have only seen the greater dragon head drop twice... never seen a great dragon head drop yet.

the Greater dragon heads both droped off of lvl 55 or lower dragons and seems like a rare drop. maybe a Great dragon head will drop off a dragon in WW that cons higher than lvl 55 as a rare. I could be wrong. personally I don't think there is such a head.
RE: Which TYPE of head?
# Feb 22 2001 at 10:37 PM Rating: Default
Well I have a GREAT dragon head which i got of bravatar i think though im not quite sure all i know is its a great giant head not a greater and not a lesser right now im tryin to figure out what quest it is for.
RE: Which TYPE of head?
# Feb 25 2001 at 4:10 PM Rating: Decent
Well, I have a GREATER dragon head. I am working on my faction still, and when I turn in my head I will post here what happened.
Kyenka gives this quest aswell...
# Feb 19 2001 at 12:18 AM Rating: Default
Kyenka inside the Kings chambers gives this quest as well... I did the quest with him and got Barbed Dragon Scale Pauldrons AC9 +5 STR +9AGL +10STA +15PR wt. 2.5 magic. I am doubous to the king faction giants so I didn't want to risk loseing my greater dragon head to Dlammaz Stormslayer.

I will most likely do this quest again with Kyenka and see if I get the same Item again. the item is dropable and not lore so I have nothing to lose.

RE: Kyenka gives different rewards is all
# Feb 20 2001 at 4:09 AM Rating: Default
The rewards are different for Kyenka. Also what makes a diffence here is the type of dragon head returned. Great or greater dragon head.....
RE: Kyenka gives this quest aswell...
# Feb 19 2001 at 12:19 AM Rating: Default
opps... forgot to say its useable for all races and most classes... pure casters can not wear this Item.
The Axe..
# Feb 14 2001 at 4:44 PM Rating: Default
I have done this quest and got a cloak once and an axe twice(got lucky, axe is very rare from what I hear).
The axe is called the Frostbriger, stats = 12dmg, 22delay, 7AC, proc: frostbite (proc= 60dd with some minor debuff to stats and cold resist)

Ok.. Our guild has a few "Greater Dragon heads" and we really want to get some of the frostbringers for our warrior.

So lemme get this strait, dont wanna mess anything up...you turn in "Greater Dragon heads"
to Dlmaaz Stormslayer and you recieve the axe?

Also, what kind of faction is required?

THANKS!
So, where is this guy??
# Jan 31 2001 at 9:00 PM Rating: Default
I've looked all thru Kael, even just after patch, and haven't found this guy, havne't even seen him on tracking.... where exactly is he??
RE: So, where is this guy??
# Feb 02 2001 at 7:35 AM Rating: Decent
He is near the Tormax area, and you have to kill a LOT of dragons to raise faction with him.
Just head towards the south most part of Kael to find him.
Need Fraction Info ?
# Jan 29 2001 at 7:45 AM Rating: Default
Anyone can tell me how to raise the fraction with Dlammaz Stormslayer, i thing the reward is really nice...
RE: Need Fraction Info ?
# Feb 05 2001 at 6:56 PM Rating: Default
He is on King Faction, So Raise King Tormax Faction and you Raise faction with him.
NEED MORE INFO!
# Jan 27 2001 at 10:16 AM Rating: Decent
If anyone finds out more info on this please post
RE: NEED MORE INFO!
# Jan 27 2001 at 1:52 PM Rating: Default
You get the Great Dragon Head, and Greater Dragon Head from named Dragons in Western Wastes. IF I'm not mistaken, Glati, Mraaka, and a few of the other Dragons drop these heads. I'm interested to know if you hand him a "Greater Dragon Head" or a "Great Dragon Head" if he will reward you with two different items. Any info on this would be great.

(I currently have 1 of each kind of Dragon head, but still have yet to bring my Giant faction above "Threaneningly".)

If you kill him, does he drop both items?
I think that would seem logical so that other people can get the cloak too..
RE: NEED MORE INFO!
# Jan 28 2001 at 2:01 PM Rating: Default
Dlammaz drops that cloak when killed. I would imagine that he also can drop that axe he talks about.
RE: NEED MORE INFO!
# Jan 29 2001 at 5:10 AM Rating: Decent
Thanks a ton...but I am only after the cloak for now...
Anyone have any real prices on it?
RE: NEED MORE INFO!
# Feb 01 2001 at 10:23 PM Rating: Default
you can hand either head in, one will get you some boots and one will get you the cloak. but dont hand both in at once
