Where does one get the quest to get to Ando-anca (Wyrdiumal)?

The Town of Nan Taurduin

If you look at my map, it's the middle Grey Mountains map. Head inside the tavern and talk to one of the 3 guys standing together.

u need to talk to ALL 3 "scientists" and u need 7 or 8 items (need to check) and bring the items back to them.
Got a list on a char (journal) of which item is dropped in which area

A list would be most helpful. I have the quests but so far have only found the dragon gland.

i checke the list on my char: here are the information in detail

axe: in cave of Khuzadrepa (old ando anka spot) (skull pile or rumble in NW of area)
tooth of glaurung: dropped by galurung himself...
armour: in chest with key to get to glaurungs cave in the tower nearby
manuscript: rock pile/rumble in cave where 2 fellbeasts are (attention the item is completely black on a black background, so u cant see it. u need tu turn view angle to have the cave in your char's back)
(special) ord: in the pond of the mini undead temple in NW of glaurung-tower area
gland: dropped by a Bairanax just N of the village
journal: in a rock/skull pile in Anguruth cave

PLEASE REMEMBER: u ONLY can find these items when quest is activated. If u open a chest without the quest avtivated the items will NOT spawn and u will have to wait 60 mins until content is wiped and reloaded by script

you are the man!, er Elf!, er Maiar!

Thanks Thorgal!

Also, the DM's need to get some other monk options in the game! Perhaps I need to re-name my monk Slim Pickens. Smile

hey guys, sorry if this confuses people! but i made a couple changes to the dragons with the latest update. i've been reading the MERP modules these are taken from, and found out that Ando-anca is actually the Cold-drake that slew Dáin I, so:

• Wyrdiumal (old) has been renamed to Ando-anca (new) - no other changes
• Ando-anca (old) is renamed to another drake, Khuzadrepa (new) - no other changes except given a couple more abilities
• Uruial is an undead dragon (new) - should increase in difficulty somewhat
* Glaurung given undead properties (new) - balanced his new undead properties with a small decrease in HP

i also added cool back-story (on examine) to all the Dragons Smile

i edited the posts here with the updated info.

Wow awesome. I wish I still had all my old MERP modules, do have a few left along with the hard back rule book. Of course, I have all I could find in PDF Wink

i did Ando Anca (old Wyrdiumal). in my opinion the boss at the end of the drake quest should be made much stronger.

and will there ba a new Wyrdiumal in the grey mountains again?

Has his difficulty changed then? Cause when I last did him he was hard enough...

Thorgal · Joined: 10 Feb 2007 Posts: 706 Location: Switzerland

i think he is as strong as old ando anca - or a bit stronger.
i made three runs and in those runs he could not heal more than 2 times.

i remember he was really strong, and took long to beat him. And now it was so "easy" (fast).

on the other hand i faced him with:
- a caster which casted non-stop IGMS,
- the casters mummy and
- a ranger/scim wm (crit range 10/20, with bane of the enemy: dragon)
both melee were buffed with courage, hope, heroism and greater heroism for increasing dmg.

so either my chars just rule (which i belive they do - but not in those dimentions!) or ando is weaker.

could anyone else check, plz?

yeah i think your characters just rule Razz

i didn't change this dragon at all except the name.

i edited my post above which should clarify the dragon changes.
