 | Griswold's Edge |
This is a simple FedEx type quest, one that requires the player to find the Anvil of Fury and return it to Griswold. The Anvil is always on a peninsula of land in the middle of a large lava lake on level 9, and always surrounded by a squad of goatman archers and a number of Obsidion Beast chargers.
Strategy Tips
This can be a fairly difficult quest for some characters, since the goatmen archers are dangerous in numbers, and there's no way to go after them with all of the Obsidian chargers clogging the island. Rogues can pick off the enemies from over the lava, and mages usually have Firewall by now, which they use to cook the monsters from a distance, but melee fighters must face the thicket of arrows at close range.
For melee characters, it's best to clear out the rest of the level, or at least that area, and then venture slowly up the peninsula, retreating as soon as a few enemies are sighted. The chargers and goatmen will pursue you away from the open land, and they can be dealt with more easily in the cramped, shadowy corners of the level. This quest is often quite important for warriors (who have the most trouble completing it) since the sword reward is usually a solid upgrade over whatever weapon the warrior is using at that point.
