Shield of the Devout  

You say, 'Hail, Gavel the Temperant'

Gavel the Temperant says, 'May the fires of Solusek Ro warm your innards! I am Gavel the Temperant. I work with Sister Blaize to forge the most elegant finery for clerics known to man or beast. Because we have no need for material wealth here in the temple, we ask that you retrieve [ingots and icons] from the lost or fallen brothers and sisters of our order. When mixed with some enchanted, [galvanized], [vulcanized], or [magnetized] platinum into an alloy, the items I can forge are splendid indeed!'

You say, 'ingots and icons'

Gavel the Temperant says, 'The ingots and icons are all named after the virtues of the cleric who held them. The virtues I require are those of the [reverent], the [constant], and the [devout].'

You say, 'devout'

Gavel the Temperant says, 'Nebbletob the Devout was once a slave in the mines of Meldrath. The Minotaur Sentry there was particularly cruel to him. He was in the expedition to Everfrost when Brother Theo drowned. When trying to rescue Theo, he came upon some caves under the river. He also narrowly escaped death when a great white beast attacked him. He never saw what the beast was, but it shredded his pack where he kept his icon. Bring me the ingot of the Devout, the icon of the Devout, and 2 vulcanized platinum bars and I will forge them into a reward for you.'

You say, 'vulcanized'

Gavel the Temperant says, 'Enchanted platinum bars can be galvanized by Genni, vulcanized by Vilissia, and magnetized by Ostorm. Just give them the enchanted platinum bar and they will do the rest.'

You say, 'Hail, Vilissia'

Vilissia says, 'I am Vilissia, chosen of Solusek Ro. I am a practitioner in the wizardly arts, and keeper of lore for the [runescale cloak], [Tishan's kilt] and the [acumen mask].'

You offered 1 Enchanted Platinum Bar to Vilissia.

Reward: Shield of the Devout

I MQed this yesterday for an alt on the same account. My main(52 Paladin) has no trouble getting the ingredients for the quest, but my low level cleric cannot get them solo. So, what I did was aquire both ingot and icon with my paladin, turn them in to Gavel, log out of my paladin, log on to my cleric, which I already had in the temple of sol ro, and have her hand in the bars of vulcanized platinum, and recieved the shield.

My paladin has amiably faction, and my cleric has indifferent. The time frame between paladin log out and cleric log in is was short. I am not sure how long you would have before the quest resets, perhaps till someone else turns something in to Gavel.

Also, to find the Glacier Bear, I brought a low level ranger alt for tracking, which was fortunate, because the bear was up, but inside a wall, or below the world. It agroed on my paladin regardless though, so all worked out. Dropped both the pelt and the ingot.

Anyway, just thought I would share my experience. Good luck to all attempting this quest.
