[Dokken]

Difficulty level: Medium

Start location: Reldo, Varrock Library (in the palace).

Required:

Items: A few gp (100 should be enough)

And a friend

NPC: Reldo

Walkthrough Hide/Show:

The book: After starting the quest by talking to Reldo in the Varrock palace library, search around the library bookcases until you find a book titled "The Shield of Arrav" (By A R Wright). Read the book and decide what side you will join.

>>> Phoenix Gang: If you want to join this gang, go back to Reldo and talk with him about where you can find the Phoenix Gang. He doesn't know. Talk with the fur trader Baraek in Varrock Square; give him 20gp for the information on where the Phoenix hideout is. Head over to the hideout, it's in an alley in the south of Varrock. Head down the stairs and talk with Straven.

VTAM Corporation: To join the VTAM Corporation you'll need to kill Jonny the Beard in the Blue Moon Inn (west of the hideout) to get a report for Straven. Straven will give you a key to the hideout. The shield half is in the back in a chest.

>>> Black Arm Gang: Talk with the Tramp just west of the south entrance to Varrock. Ask him what's down the alleyway, and he'll tell you that it's the Black Arm Gang's hideout. Follow the alleyway and talk with Katrine. Tell her that you know about the gang, and that you won't tell who your source is. Tell her to try you out to prove that you're trustworthy.

Getting the crossbows: Now it is time to ask your friend for some help. She/he will have to give you the key for the armour room. Once you have the key, go a little east of the Phoenix hideout and find the locked door. Go in and up the stairs. You will be attacked by the Phoenix master of arms. Kill him and take two crossbows. Go back to Katrine and give her the crossbows, go upstairs in the hideout, and get the shield half from a cupboard.

Finishing: Ok, hope you trust your friend, or your friend trusts you, because you will now have to give the one shield half to your friend (or take his shield half). He will have both halves (or you will). Go to Curator in the Varrock Museum located east of the palace you started in. Talk with him, and get the two certificates. Give one to your friend, and then head off to the king in Varrock palace, give him the certificate, and you'll have completed the quest.
