Guide to Pynti-Peldot

By Darkgolem



Pynti-Peldot is a main Lossoth settlement, found right in the middle of
Forochel.  With tasks that are around level 45 for players to
complete, it is a great place to get a level or two in your 40's
quickly.  Most of the quests here happen to the west of
Pynti-Peldot, in areas such as Leijona-kotin, a gorge haunted by
sabre-tooth tigers.  Like other areas in Forochel, to continue
from here to higher level areas in Forochel, you will need to impress
the chieftain here, named Ora.  Make sure to do her quests before
leaving Pynti-Peldot, then head west to the dwarven settlement of
Zigilgund.



Note that some quests list the
"Grudgingly Earned" quest as a requirement.  In this case, it can
mean it requires you have that quest, or it can mean it requires you
have completed that quest.



One thing to note about this area.. your on the edge of the bay of ice
to the north.  Make sure you don't fall into this water.  The
water will freeze you to death in short order.  Furthermore, you
can be made vulnerable to cold by creatures in Forochel, increasing the
damage you take from their attacks.  You can use fires (such as
campfires in Pynti-Peldot, or those made by a hunter) to warm up and
remove the cold vulnerability.  If it is really important to you,
you can go to the hot springs south of Zigilgund (inhabited by deadly
lizards) and gain a hour long immunization to cold, to gird you against
encounters here.



The champion and minstrel of the Lost Fellowship deed are found in
Pynti-Peldot (or at the hunting camp, found halfway or so to Zigilgund
to the west of Pynti-Pelto, at 7.5N, 75.4W.)  Read about the lost

Burgthryth
Pynti-Peldot

7.5N, 75.4W After becoming separated from
the rest of her fellowship by a storm, Burgthryth was pursued through
the wilderness by a variety of hostile beasts. During the course of her
flight, she lost some of her most prized sheets of music and despairs
of ever finding them again.
Find Burgthryth's first sheet



1.  Burgthryth believes the first of her sheets was swiped from
her pack by a Tundra Bear. You will have to hunt them down until you
find the one that stole it -- assuming it has not already been devoured.



Tundra Bears can be found in Länsi-mâ.



2.   Burgthryth told you that the second of her anthem sheets
might have been grabbed by a curious peikko during her performance. You
will have to hunt down the peikko that stole it.



Peikko may be found in Länsi-mâ.



3.  Burgthryth thinks she probably dropped the third sheet of her
anthem when she was being pursued by Gauradan-hunters. You will have to
hunt down the Gauredain and retrieve that sheet before they use it as a
hankerchief -- or worse.



Gauredain can be found in Länsi-mâ.



(Author's note: Bears are found
to the SW of Pynti-Peldot.  Head
west along the road to find Peikko's of Lansi-Ma in a cave across from
the dwarven city of Zigilgund at 9.5N, 80.0W.  Peikko's are 47
mobs so be cautious if your in the 45 level range.  This is a
random drop, so don't be concerned with getting too far into the cave..
any kill will have a chance of dropping it.   Note that
Guaredan thief can have the sheet music, not just hunters.)
