Tired of sitting at home fighting only boredom?
Tired of being the only active stablehand on the farm?
Tired of just dreaming of life, not living it?
Well if you are, then the Armed forces wants you! Go see your local recruiter (in either Hebian-to, Zaikhal, or Cragstone), and you can help them build a better tomorrow.

New Recruiters!
--
Lieutenant Kenneth - Cragstone - 25.8N, 49.1E (by blacksmith)
--
Shosa Kiroji Matanui - Hebian-to - 39.0S. 83.2E (by Serenity Tower)
--Ufet, Prophet of Blades - Zaikhal- 13.9N, 0.7E (by smith)


Shosa Kiroji Matanui tells you, "Greetings! My name is Kiroji, and I am a Shosa in the Sho Army. We must rally to deal with the Virindi - Tumerok alliance. We must not allow Hebian-To to fall! I will reward any who bring me the banners of our fallen enemy." 

Ufet, Prophet of Blades tells you, "Good Day. My name is Ufet, and I am here to organize the defense of Gharu'ndim from the depredations of the Tumeroks and Virindi. If you grant me any banner, I will reward you for your heroism. The more developed the banner, the more of a reward I will provide."

Lieutenant Kenneth tells you, "Hello, my name is Kenneth. I'm here to help direct an organized resistance against the Virindi and Tumerok attacks. If you give me a banner, I will gladly reward you, as it is proof of your heroism."

Tumerok News!
While running along the beaches just north-east of Eastham, I noticed a small band of Tumeroks along the left side of the beach. I wasn't too impressed until I noticed that they were carrying weapons that greatly resembled Quiddity Spears (!). So, as I charged into the fray, swinging my brand-spanking new Atlan Dagger, I also noticed a new breed of tumerok that hadn't been mentioned in your beasties section.

I'm not sure whether they're new in this most recent update, or whether you just hadn't gotten around to putting them on the list, but I fought a Tumerok Standard Bearer. And he was fighting me with... well, a standard. :P

So both the Quiddity Weapons and the Standard Bearer are my contribution to the great site that is The Kick-Ass Jack Cat's page.

-Tesij the Deft

Note:
the Quiddity weapons wielded by the Tumeroks are of lesser quality than the quest weapons. 

Correction: Bae Skubber of FF reports that the Dires Tumeroks carry the more powerful Quiddity Weapons.

Balister of the Quiddity

A weapon made of strange pulsing energy.

New Quests!
Collect the trophies dropped by the Tumerok Clans and create 6 different types of weapons. Banners are attached to Hafts (2 quailites: regular or reinforced) and topped with either a Spearheads, Symbol or Crest. Your final weapon will be a spear, a wand (magic staff) or a crested weapon. Weapons can be turned into the Recruiters for rewards. The higher level crested weapon can be turned in for an Assault Weapon (see quest details below).

New Quest -  Assault Weapons!
Quest Details: Assault Weapons

I met up with Enclave to get more information on how to turn a Banner into one of the new assault weapons. Here is the report!

In the Direlands between the Lightning Vault & AB Tumerok spawn: Lieutenants, Majors, Controllers, Commanders and Standard Bearers. The Standard Bearers drop Banners.

First he got a Mask Banner off a Standard Bearer.
Then a Perfect Haft off a Major.
Then a Mask Crest off a Tumerok Controller.

Use the Haft on the Banner for a Hafted Banner. 
Use the Crest on the Hafted Banner to get a Spear with 1 damage.

Give the weapon to one of the 3 Recruiters (info listed above) for a Staff Token. Give the token back to the NPC for the Assault Weapon.

Different types of Tumeroks spawn in different areas of Dereth and they drop parts from the 6 different Tumerok Tribes (see location information above).

Shreth = Assault Mace
Reedshark = Assault Axe
Mask = Assault Staff
Gromnie = Assault Spear

The Serpent and the Falcon do not give weapons. If you use a Symbol instead of a crest you will get a wand instead of a weapon, but you cannot then turn it in for a coin to make an assault weapon.

There's a 3 month timer on the tokens. The final weapon may be dropped or given away. Hafted Banners cannot be given.
