Halloween quest - INFOFollow

Get the collection question from Old Man Draykey in Kithicor Forest.

Gives you a backpack, and a book with the following info:

Hiding in the bushes of hte dead house - Unrest?
The pinnacle of enlightenment - Erudin?
He's not Slate, but he's close - Sergeant ragus, WC, Rock Candy
wanders in the pit in a land of his kind
A short man in an icy land, food can be found in his hands - Halas?
Lurking in the forest near a feline retreat
He found out the hard way that drinking and swordplay do not mix
Hidden away in the caves of his lair
Toiling in the fields of the gnolls family
He's fallen down the stairs, but it's been kept under wraps

seems to be the same as last year, at least in part. that being the case, here's the spoiler thread from last year. happy halloween!

There are a lot of other NPCs with quests too, 2 in PoK, a Wizened Hermit = reward Summon sporali familiar (will email details to Railus)

Please tell me we did not go through 8 hrs of patches for candy. There has to be more to the events. Looking forward to see if the rewards are better this year they seem to be doing better loot since TSS.

Correction to you it is not about the reward. If it was just about the fun at the end it you would get a pat on the head rather than a reward.

Does anyone have any information on what is going on in Kith? As a Paladin, I can't wait to smite the evil undead, even without a boom-stick!

I am still pretty new to this, can you tell me where these three people are found? Tia! (the three in CR)

Bonecollector, Sally, and Jack are all by the Dbl waterfall by the dragons. Cannot find Julliana, any help with her?

Anyone seen Wraps in befallen? He isn't spawning in the same spot as last year.

Im not a big fan of the rewards for most of the quests. I did a few in kithicor forest and got the candy. The fact it is labeled as a snack means it won't last long and will be easy to lose if you don't constantly force feed. I also don't see the point of the stat food quests when you can buy a 25 str 25 sta 40 hitpoint snack food off vendors for free. I was sure to buy 2 backpacks of that stuff and stash it in the bank.

I would like to do that earring quest, but good ole SOE likes to have players fight with each other during these events I guess. Stat wise its pitiful, but can't go wrong with that familar. I ran around for about 20 minutes in Tox forest trying to get those mushrooms. I actually found 1 spawned and by the time I seen it 2 other people was running for it. So as far as I am concerned they can keep that freakin earring. I don't see any "Fun" in running circles in a newbie zone fighting with the rest of the server over ground spawns. Should have double or triple the spawns on those mushrooms IMO. I might try this quest again later on, but im not going to spend hours fighting with craploads of people for the thing.

I found a mob near the lake in kithicor who seemed to offer a task, however I couldn't accept it because I did not have enough people in my group ( I was solo ).

OH BTW what are the 3D glasses for? They don't show up on you when worn? Do they do anything at all?

I was hoping for something better than a lukewarm rehash of last year's Halloween event :( Reckon I'll pass this year.

Anyone remember who/where the npc is for the mask quests?

So has anyone actually done the quest to its end and received the final reward?
