    Find Wraithguard Thentil Strongarm in Valdeholm at location -1510, -1070, 85.

    You say, 'Hail Wraithguard Thentil Strongarm'

    Wraithguard Thentil Strongarm says 'What brings you to these forsaken peaks? My people are fighting a losing battle against the shades of our own fallen kin. We lack even the [supplies] and [new weapons] to stage a proper defense.'

    You say, 'Supplies?'

    Wraithguard Thentil Strongarm says, 'We draw most of our resources from the surrounding glaciers. Any of you can gather would be much appreciated.'

    You have been assigned the task 'Runic Ivory'

    Thentil Strongarm has a large order of spears to fill. Unfortunately, he is low on Mammoth tusks used to create the special spearheads used by the Wraithguard. He will need a new supply of Icefall Mammoth Ivory if he is to be able to complete the order.

    Deliver 4 Icefall Ivory Tusk to Wraithguard Thentil Strongarm - Valdeholm

    Hand in the four tusks:

    If all that's required in a task is "Deliver..." then yes, the items involved should be pre-lootable. It's been quite a long time since this quest has been entered/updated, and there has never been mention of a lockout timer (which would obviously affect mass turn-ins, if there is one), so you would be well off to try it after collecting eight of them instead of... 800 of them.

    Preloot worked fine, no lockout timer(from handing in 2 sets, anyway.) For those interested in the numbers:
    +50 Wraithguard Leadership
    +60 Wraithguard

    Currently doing this quest over and over again with my lvl 72 druid to try and reach kindly faction to do the Staff of Frozen Flame quest.

    Rather easy for a 71+ druid to solo...

    Snare 2 mammoths, cast glamour of tunare on them (seems to prolong charm) charm one, have it attack the other... haste the pet (savage spirit)... continue charming ur pet as charm breaks until ur pet is at 5% or lower... can break charm with innate camo. from here 2 nukes should kill ur pet or u can dot if u wish. The other mob should be around 50% give or take 10% or so.

    From here snare another mammoth to use as ur pet, repeat method above... at the end, both mammoths should be pretty low health and u can finish both via nukes/dots.

    One important note is that ur pet's damage is mitigated by what seems like 50%.

    Also, dont bother healing ur pet :)

    Have fun with this!

    i used this runic ivory quest over and over several times, Getting my bravers forst, then several others for other CLASSES that were notrades well, so i just would destroy them.. THE REASON i choose this was i was at an overnite group, collecting these tusks in my turn and had about 12 whgn i first turned in to get the wrists ( BETTER than TSS dru Ancient leather pattern wrist WITHOUT a powersource, ill change one of the bands off when i get powersources..checked faction with gaurds at ashengate ZI and was still indiff,....after the nite was over i turned in, at least 5 more sets of 4, and destroyed the items, and i was THEN IMMEDIATEABLE ABLE TO WORK the SHIELD Quest.!
    https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=55180
    and is a result of this EASY QUEST!
    https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=3939
    VERY EASY to do....i was lucky and had a group stationed where the ivory fell about 1/3 or 1/4 per mobs killed, and an all-niter really did all of my group well in there TSS factioning basics & new wrists, and the stsrt of the HAESGRINS' #1 Quest(above).... 73's

    Getting Past amaible ?
    # May 27 2007 at 9:47 PM Rating: Decent
    I was able to get to amiable easy. However I have turned in at least 20 more tusks and I am still amiable. Is it broken or are the faction levels now just harder to get through ? I have not done all of the tasks in the set... still missing shades bane... since it looks like a PITA I would rather not do it.. anyone know if its required to do the set in order to progress with faction past amiable ?

    amiable is the biggest faction level youll face is why it seems like it's not working, but it is

    -100 to -1 ...looks your way apprehensively (100)

    0 to 99 ...regards you indifferently (100)

    100 to 499 ...judges you amiably (400)
    500 to 749 ...kindly considers you (250)
    750 to 1099 ...looks upon you warmly (350)
    1100 to ~2000 ...Ally faction

    TO GO FROM APP TO ALLY = 1200 FAC POINTS

    im not sure how many pts this quest is worth, but i know construction of shadows was 50.

    From the first moment i hit kindly it took 5 further tasks to hit warmly. This supports your faction table and task faction given that kindly is 250 faciton hits, and 5 of these tasks at 50 each would match the 250.

    Doing this quest 7 times got my wizard from Apprehensive to Amiable with Wraithguard. Which works pretty nice since I got the tusks in the course of camping Taruskor for boot armor drops. You can get the tusks first, pile them up and then do the quests so it's an easy relatively painless way to build up this faction.

    Did they change how much faction this adds? Have done this quest 6 times..still at dubious, was told I only needed 3 times to go up a faction by countless people.

    You can do this as many time as you want now... I have not done the 4 "Character Flag" quests... as of the new patch. you can continue to do them over and over... I did these at least 20 times so far to get ally...

    # Mar 28 2007 at 7:20 AM Rating: Decent
    The way to get this more then once is to do all 4 task in the set for a "character flag"

    Armor Supplies, Runic Ivory, Construction of Shadows and Runded Diamond....then you can repeat this....turned in over 60 tusk and with bracers done 8 times I am ally.
    repeatable

    I was able to get this three times with dubious faction handed in 12 tusks and 8 pelts, still con at dubious as well. Not sure what to tell you
    Repeatable
    # Jan 22 2007 at 2:46 PM Rating: Decent
    I have done this quest one time so far and Thentil will not give me this quest again. When I say "supplies" all he says is "Sorry ________, I dont have anything for someone with your abilities". If this is repeatable then why cant I get the task again? Any help would be appreciated =).

    Looks like this quest is not repeatable, at least at dubious faction.

    At first I thought it wasn't repeatable, but when you ask for the quest again, you find it is repeatable. Hope this helps! :)

    for this quest, you say "supplies" not "new weapons"

    "supplies" works at dubious, the weapons quest won't

    You say, 'Hail Wraithguard Thentil Strongarm'

    Wraithguard Thentil Strongarm says 'What brings you to these forsaken peaks? My people are fighting a losing battle against the shades of our own fallen kin. We lack even the [supplies] and [new weapons] to stage a proper defense.'

    You say, 'supplies?'

    Wraithguard Thentil Strongarm says, 'We draw most of our resources from the surrounding glaciers. Any of you can gather would be much appreciated.'

    You have been assigned the task 'Runic Ivory'

    Thentil Strongarm has a large order of spears to fill. Unfortunately, he is low on Mammoth tusks used to create the special spearheads used by the Wraithguard. He will need a new supply of Icefall Mammoth Ivory if he is to be able to complete the order.

    THe last paragraph is the task description.

    You can hand the Icefall Ivory Tusk one at a time, and you can also hand in ones you looted before you got the task.

    Also confirmign that I received this task at dubious, but "new weapons" got me

    The task 'Runic Ivory' comes as an option from saying 'what supplies' to Thentil Strongarm. You get 2 options of tasks, one is for Icefall Grizzly Pelts which rewards you with the bracer, the other is this quest which rewards you with experience and faction.

    The 'new weapons' task is not attainable at dubious faction but the two supply tasks are.
