Saurek Claws  

Bring Shekar one Claw Beast Talon along with a Wooden Practice Flail in exchange for a Claw Beast Talon Club

Shekar takes the flail and starts placing the claws into it forming a formidable looking weapon. 'This seems a good weapon indeed. Here, you can take it for helping to test my theory of weapon crafting. Safe travels to you friend.'

You receive a Claw Beast Talon Club

You can also buy the wooden practice flails from Kogar in Shar Vahl for 1g 5s 9c

Okay, looks like they changed this up a bit, so here's the text.

[Thu Oct 06 14:37:29 2016] You say, 'Hail, Captain Alim'
[Thu Oct 06 14:37:29 2016] Captain Alim says 'Have you come for training young one? The way of the Beastlord teaches many things about the forces of nature. The [forces] in the thicket are very interesting.'
[Thu Oct 06 14:37:37 2016] You say, 'forces'
[Thu Oct 06 14:37:38 2016] Captain Alim says 'Yes, the force that compels a creature to adjust to their surroundings in particular. The Saurek have seem to have adapted to their environment very well. I am studying the effects of their claws. It seems the different [variety] of Saurek have special enhancements.'
[Thu Oct 06 14:37:52 2016] You say, 'variety'
[Thu Oct 06 14:37:52 2016] Captain Alim says 'Well, for example the Firefall Saurek can attack with claws that burn the flesh, the Deathmaw attack with poisonous claws, the shredder Saurek are especially skilled in fending off the Tegi that threaten them, and lastly there is a more uncommon Claw Beast that is very strong but does not appear that often. I believe I could take their claws and affix them to a weapon to [enhance] it.'
[Thu Oct 06 14:38:20 2016] You say, 'enhance'
[Thu Oct 06 14:38:20 2016] Captain Alim says 'If you would like to test this theory, speak with my trainees, located behind me. I have taught them everything I know about making these clubs. Each trainee specializes in creating a different club, based upon the components they require. Return to them with the correct components, and they will attempt to fashion the claws to the flail.'
~~~
Now you need to talk to the four trainees in the tent:

[Thu Oct 06 14:39:24 2016] You say, 'Hail, Jolneg'
[Thu Oct 06 14:39:24 2016] Jolneg says 'Hello there, young one, has the Captain sent you to speak with me about the [Deathmaw Club]?'
[Thu Oct 06 14:39:28 2016] You say, 'Deathmaw Club'
[Thu Oct 06 14:39:28 2016] Jolneg says 'Ahh, well, since you do not know of the Deathmaw club, then I will tell you about it. Captain Alim has taught me how to make this club. In order to make one, I will require three deathmaw claws, and a wooden practice flail. Return to me these components, and I will craft a Deathmaw Club for you.'

[Thu Oct 06 14:39:45 2016] You say, 'Hail, Ferdrin'
[Thu Oct 06 14:39:46 2016] Ferdrin says 'Welcome Hazan! Have you been sent to speak with me by [Captain Alim]?'
[Thu Oct 06 14:40:02 2016] You say, 'I have been sent by Captain Alim'
[Thu Oct 06 14:40:02 2016] Ferdrin says 'Excellent, I presume you wish to speak with me about the [Firefall Club]?'
[Thu Oct 06 14:40:07 2016] You say, 'Firefall Club'
[Thu Oct 06 14:40:07 2016] Ferdrin says 'If you provide me with three firefall claws, and a wooden practice flail, I am able to fashion them together into a Firefall Claw Club, for you to use.'

[Thu Oct 06 14:40:21 2016] You say, 'Hail, Kylfa'
[Thu Oct 06 14:40:21 2016] Kylfa says 'Greetings, young one, what is it that you [seek]?'
[Thu Oct 06 14:40:35 2016] You say, 'I seek club'
[Thu Oct 06 14:40:36 2016] Kylfa says 'Ahh, so you seek the Shredder Claw Club, aye? Indeed, I am the apprentice to Captain Alim who was trained to make that item. I will craft one for you if you wish to gather the [components].'
[Thu Oct 06 14:40:45 2016] You say, 'components'
[Thu Oct 06 14:40:46 2016] Kylfa says 'Return to me with three Shredder Claws, and a wooden practice flail, and I will attach the claws to the flail and create a Shredder Claw Club for you to use out here in the Thicket.'

[Thu Oct 06 14:40:57 2016] You say, 'Hail, Shekar'
[Thu Oct 06 14:40:57 2016] Shekar says 'I suppose you are here to ask me how to create a Claw Beast Talon Club? Yes, yes, I thought you might be. So many young ones looking for these, my poor claws are sore from all the assembly. Of course, I will make one for you, so long as you return to me with the correct [items].'
[Thu Oct 06 14:41:12 2016] You say, 'items'
[Thu Oct 06 14:41:12 2016] Shekar says 'To assemble this club, I require only two things. The first is a wooden practice flail. The second is a talon from the great claw beasts. They are quite rare, and large, and might be a difficult kill.'

Did the shredder and claw beast club qyests both today with wooden practice flails purchased from Kogar. Both worked just fine. (March 29, 2003)

Does anyone know if this quest has been repaired yet

of course you get nothing for the darkclaw claws, they have nothing to do with this quest, you need shredder, deathmaw, firefall claws or claw beast talons, not darkclaw claws.

its been a couple days for me and of course I havent been on when a GM has been on to see if they will give my parts back.

I liked the old GM system way better.

I tried handing in the Darkclaw claws, got nothing out of it. Be warned.

Where do you get the wooden practice flail? Looked everywhere I could think of, but no luck.

I got this wep in 2 days fighting Clawbeasts at lvl 14/15. I have used it to keep up my 1HB skills, paired with my horns of spirits it is a nice combo that I still use at lvl 30for the str +3 and sta +3 adds. Not as nice as my slime covered harpoon but a great way to keep skills up.

I agree, verant screwed up the drop rates for this quest just like the bloodbulk carapace quest.

There is no way to collect enough of the claws and get the reward at a level where these weapons are at all worthwhile.
