Soulbound Weapons (Osteth)

To receive an Osteth Soulbound Weapon, you must first acquire a Moonstone Activation Crystal and an Osteth Weapon Emblem. The Moonstone Activation Crystal is obtained from Asheron's Cache. This chest is opened using Asheron's Sigil, and can be found inside the Fiery Crypt (5.6N, 16.7E) or the Warder's Hideout (20.6N, 14.0E), via the Warder Cache portal.

There is a chance you'll receive Asheron's Sigil as a random drop, but the easiest way to complete this quest, is to follow the Drudge Insurgence quest line. There are parts of it you don't need to complete, but it is beneficial to complete the entire quest line. Completing this quest line will also grant you access to the the Warder Cache portal inside the Warder's Hideout (20.6N, 14.0E), which contains an Asheron's Cache and an Order Cache.

I'll try and make this guide and straight to the point as necessary.

Rescue the Shelter Hold: This is the first quest in-game that you'll encounter and is relatively straightforward. Additional information on this quest can be found here.

Arwic Obelisk Search: You'll receive this quest from the Arwic Explorer (45.6N, 7.8W). Take the Arwic Ringway Portal, and double-click the Ruby Obelisk. Continue on the Arwic Ringway, activating the Sapphire Obelisk, and the Emerald Obelisk, then return to Arwic and speak to the Arwic Explorer (45.6N, 7.8W).

Lost Wish Obelisk Search: From Arwic, take the Kehan Portal (43.9N, 6.8W). You'll receive this quest from the Lost Wish Explorer (43.9N, 11.2E). Take the Lost Wish Ringway Portal, and double-click the Ruby Obelisk. Continue on the Lost Wish Ringway, activating the Sapphire Obelisk, and the Emerald Obelisk, then return to Kehan and speak to the Lost Wish Explorer (43.9N, 11.2E).

Esper Obelisk Search: From Arwic, take the Millstone Portal (44.2N, 6.9W), then take the Esper Ringway Portal. You'll receive this quest from the Esper Explorer (45.5N, 14.6W). Take the Esper Ringway Portal, and double-click the Ruby Obelisk. Continue on the Esper Ringway, activating the Sapphire Obelisk, and the Emerald Obelisk, then return to Northeast Esper Outpost and speak to the Esper Explorer (45.5N, 14.6W).

Arwic Mines and Crafting Quest: Speak to the the Arwic Mines Overseer (44.0N, 6.1W) located in Arwic, then set out for the New Arwic Mines (45.6N, 2.6W). I'd suggest fighting your way to the dungeon, and upgrading your weapons on the way. Missile weapons are expecially convenient at lower levels.

Once inside the dungeon, stay to the right and you'll come to a room full of Drudge Outcasts. Go straight, and you'll run into the Drudge Taskmaster and an Order Cache. Fight Drudge Outcasts until one drops a Crude Flat Hammer, then return to the Arwic Mines Overseer (44.0N, 6.1W). Drag-and-drop the item to hand in.

Open Skill Panel (Anvil Icon), then the Craft Tab, and scroll down to Quest Recipes. You should have a recipe to create the Arwic Mines Short Sword. Using the 20 Iron given to you for turning in the Crude Flat Hammer, create the Arwic Mines Short Sword, then hand it back in to Arwic Mines Overseer.

Kehan Windmill Quest: From Arwic, take the Kehan Portal (43.9N, 6.8W), and speak to the Miller of Kehan (42.5N, 11.2E). You'll be given a Surveying Map. At approximately 40.3N, 11.7E, you'll want to start using the map to survey for Stone. Once you find a Stone node, you can mine it up to three times. Split your stack of Stone by dragging it to a new inventory space, and return 1 Stone to the Miller of Kehan (42.5N, 11.2E). You’ll receive a Massive Gear. Take it north and hand it to the Drudge Windmill (47.0N, 11.5E), then head back to Miller of Kehan (42.5N, 11.2E).

Additional information on Surveying can be found here.

Drudge Outcast Camp Quest: After completing the Kehan Windmill Quest, you are sent to Millstone to speak with the Esper Warder (37.5N, 19.9W). You will need to craft a Drudge Cadre Slayer Weapon using 25 Bone, acquired from Butchering. The reedsharks and vermin in the area will sometimes yield Bone when butchered. Once you have a Drudge Cadre Slayer Weapon, head to the Drudge Outcast Camp (33.4N, 18.6W). Either from Millstone, or from the Southwest Esper Outpost.

Slay a Drudge Cadre, and loot the Drudge Cadre Bone. Return the Drudge Cadre Bone to the Esper Warder (37.5N, 19.9W).

Additional information on Butchering can be found here.

Old Cragstone Excavation Quest: From Millstone, take the Cragstone Portal, and speak to the Warder of Cragstone (32.2N, 12.5W). You'll be heading east to the Old Cragstone Excavation Portal (32.2N, 7.1W). Each type of Drudge inside this dungeon drops a seperate seal fragment. You'll want to collect all three fragments.

Jagged Seal Fragment Small Seal Fragment Sharp Seal Fragment

Once you have one of each fragment, fuse them using your Quest Recipe to create the Cragstone Library Seal. Use the Cragstone Library Seal to enter the Cragstone Library Portal within the dungeon. It is located in an off-shoot of the main room, and is guarded by Breeder of Pestilence. Be careful! Once inside, loot the Cragstone Blueprints and return them to the Warder of Cragstone (32.2N, 12.5W).

The Warder Scout's Notebook: From Cragstone, take the Rithwic Portal (31.2N, 12.6W, and speak to the Warder Scout (25.0N, 3.8E). Head north to 28.1N, 3.9E, and slay the Drudge Slinker Bandit, then loot the Warder Scout's Notebook. Head back to the Warder Scout (25.0N, 3.8E) and return the notebook.

Isle of Tears Drudge Fort: After completing the Warder Scout's Notebook quest, head out of town and speak to the Warder Corporal (22.7N, 1.4E). You'll be asked to investigate the Drudge Fort (26.6N, 0.6E) on the Isle of Tears. Swim out to the island, and fight your way into the fort. Be careful, slaying the Drunken Drudge Sentry will spawn 2-3 Secret Drudge Militia. Find and loot the Manuscript in the fort, then take the Underground Tunnels portal. This dungeon is linear, and at the end you'll need to slay a Profound Drudge Mystic to advance your quest. Once done, you can return to the Warder Corporal (22.7N, 1.4E).

Drudge Potion Raid: Head to the Warder's Hideout (20.6N, 14.0E) via the Drudge Citadel Ringway in Cavendo. You'll want to head to the Northwest Drudge Citadel Outpost, and run from there. Once inside the dungeon, stay to the left all the way through until you reach the Warder Captain. She will give you the Drudge Potion Raid quest. Take the surface portal, and head back to the Northwest Drudge Citadel Outpost, then follow the road to the Drudge Fort (19.5N, 21.1E). Slay a Drudge Potion Guard. Loot a Drudge Potion Chest Key. Use the Drudge Potion Chest Key on the Drudge Potion Chest. Loot the Drudge Potion.

Time to head back to the Warder Captain in the Warder's Hideout (20.6N, 14.0E) and turn in the Drudge Potion!

The Illuminated Manuscript: Next stop, Shoushi. From Shoushi, you'll run to Dantry the First Warder (7.4N, 15.4E) who will advance the quest line and send you to the Illuminated Drudge Cave (4.0N, 16.7E). Inside, you'll fight Inferno Drudges, who have a chance to drop Osteth Weapon Emblems. I'd recommend staying in the dungeon until you fight the Osteth Weapon Emblem specific to your class. There is an Illuminated Drudge at the end of the dungeon, who protects the Illuminated Manuscript. Loot the Illuminated Manuscript and return it to Dantry the First Warder (7.4N, 15.4E) to receive Asheron's Sigil.

Soulbound Weapons - Osteth Once you have Asheron's Sigil, you'll need to open Asheron's Cache back at the Warder's Hideout (20.6N, 14.0E). It can be found in the Warder Cache Portal near the Warder Captain. Once you unlock Asheron's Cache, loot the Moonstone Activation Crystal. Once you have the Moonstone Activation Crystal, you can head back to Shoushi. Take the Prosper Ringway Portal to the Western Prosper Outpost.

From here, you'll run east and speak to Tamar (6.0N, 6.2E). After you've spoken with Tamar, head to the Osteth Weapons Golem (5.9N, 8.4E) and turn in the Moonstone Activation Crystal, then your Osteth Weapons Emblem.
