The Explorer Society Quest/Spoiler

This is a very difficult and time-consuming quest. Parts of it can be worked on at any level, but some of the missions require you to pass through some very difficult places, such as Dwacatra and Ulderek's Rock.

Method
To begin this quest, visit the Tibian Explorer Society in Port Hope (here) or Northport (here), and ask to join.

Prove Your Dedication - Obtain Dwarven Pickaxe

 * Go to Kazordoon, and talk to Uzgod, the weaponsmith (beneath the Depot). Ask him for the "pickaxe". He will tell you that his order book is * full, but if you bring his stolen Family Brooch, he will give you the Pickaxe. The brooch is in Dwacatra, the prison under Kazordoon.


 * To enter Dwacatra, you need to first get the key. But in order to do that, you need to get two other keys near the throne room.


 * The first key (Key 3800) is down a hidden passage.




 * To get the second key (Key 3801), use Key 3800 on the door, and open the chest.


 * The final key (Key 3802) is below the throne room, in the General's private quarters, near the armory. You will need to use Key 3801 to open his door.


 * Once you have Key 3802, you can enter Dwacatra.


 * The entrance to the Kazordoon prison is located near the main entrance to Kazordoon.




 * In Dwacatra, you need to go down a hole near a well. You will have to face a large number of Orcs, Orc Spearmen, Minotaurs, Minotaur Archers, Dwarves, Dwarf Soldiers, Dwarf Guards, some Cyclopes, and maybe even a Minotaur Mage or Orc Berserker. Take it slow, and you might not get swarmed.




 * Once you are done, go back to Uzgod, and tell him you have his "brooch". He will then give you the Dwarven Pickaxe.


 * Go back to the Explorer Society, and give him the "pickaxe".

You are now an official member of the Explorer Society

Rank of Novice
The following three missions are for novices of the Explorer Society. Once all three of these missions have been completed successfully, you will advance in rank.

Ice Delivery
This mission requires that you use a special Ice Pick, and retrieve some Ice from beneath the Island of Folda. The ice melts quickly, so you must hurry once you have the ice. It is reccomended that you get this mission from the Explorer Society in Northport, since it is closer to the Ice Islands.


 * Take the Ice Pick, go to Folda, and enter the main cave (here).


 * The following maps show the shortest route to the ice. You will face Frost Trolls, Rotworms, Minotaurs, Minotaur Archers, and maybe some Slime. Kill everything on your way there, and if you are fast enough, they will not spawn behind you to slow you down on your way back.




 * Take the ice back to the Explorer Society, and tell him you have an "ice delivery". If the ice melts before you make it back, talk to the guy there anyway, and he can give you another chance.

Butterfly Hunt
For this mission, the explorer society is looking for fresh specimins of certain butterflies. For each butterfly you will be given a Butterfly Conservation Kit to collect a fresh corpse of the different butterflies.


 * First, you will need to find a Purple Butterfly. These are the most common, and can be seen all around the swampy area just north of Port Hope, the grassy area south of Port Hope, as well as many other places all over Tibia.


 * Second, you will need to find a Blue Butterfly. These are more difficult to locate, but are found near Port Hope, usually with Purple Butterflies. They have been seen along the coast north and south of Port Hope, along the outskirts of the Tiquanda Jungle north of Port Hope, and along the river inside the Tiquanda Jungle.


 * Third, you will need to find a Red Butterfly. Most people have a difficult time with this one. There does not appear to be "normal" spawn places for red butterflies, but they can be seen near on the edge of the jungle north and south of Port Hope, in Trapwood near town, south-west of Banuta, and along the river in Tiquanda.

Plant Collection
For this mission you need to collect samples of three different jungle plants in a specific order. For each plant you will be given a Botanist's Container to use on the plant to collect the sample.


 * First, you need to find a sample of a jungle bells plant. These can be found on the ground along the south side of Port Hope very close to town, and just within the Tiquanda Jungle north of Port Hope. Some have been seen here and here.


 * Second, you need to find a sample of a witches cauldron plant. These are found slightly deeper in the Tiquanda Jungle. The easiest to locate is along the river. Go east of Port Hope on the north side of the river, and follow the river as it turns north. A witches cauldron plant can be found just north of a camp with Skeletons in it (approximately here). Others have been seen approximately here.


 * Finally, you need to find a sample of a giant jungle rose plant. One can be found near the river on the way to the witches cauldron plant described above (approximately here).

Rank of Journeyman
These three missions are for jouneymen of the Explorer Society. Once all three of these missions have been completed successfully, you advance in rank.

Beholder Secrets
The explorer society is looking for evidence that the Beholders originally built the "dark pyramid" north-east of Darashia (which is now occupied by Minotaurs). This is a fairly difficult place to go, so bring a good blocker and a mage shooter with plenty of Great Fireball runes.

To complete this quest, you need to go into the dark pyramid and retrieve a wrinkled parchment covered with strange numbers.


 * Go to the Minotaur Pyramid north-east of Darashia (here) and go down the steps.


 * This first level below the surface has plenty of Minotaurs and Minotaur Guards. Head west and go down another level.




 * This level has quite a few Mintaur Guards and Minotaur Archers. Head east and go down again.




 * This level has a large number of Minotaur Guards, Minotaur Archers, and Minotaur Mages. Head to the north and go down the steps.




 * This room has only one Mummy. Go down the steps.


 * There are no creatures in this room, but open the door and "use" the box behind it to receive the wrinkled parchment.


 * Take the parchment back to the Explorer Society and tell him you have found the "beholder secrets".
