It starts with Hakon, the bow merchant in Huginfell, at 20th. He will tell you that he can make you a good bow, but he needs some materials to do it.

First, he needs Steel Strand Arachite Silk from a great tingler and a Perfect Willow Branch from a weeping willow, both near Gna Faste, Myrkwood Forest.

Once you bring those back, he tells you to go get a Muspelheim Fire Ant Digestive Sac from a
Muspelheim Fire Ant in the northwest corner of West Svealand. /loc 11283,
4514 - up the hill almost in the snow.

lvl 26 awarded:
You are awarded 3,500,000 experience!
You are awarded 26 silver and some copper!


Lvl 24 received 2,000,000 experience, 26 silver

I am doing this quest on 4/25/05

The first 2 items are Ssteel Strand Arachite Silk from a great tingler and a Perfect Willow Branch from a weeping willow, both near Gna Faste.

The 3rd item I needed to get is Muspelheim Fire Ant Digestive Sac from a Muspelheim Fire Ant in the northwest corner of West Svealand. /loc 11283, 4514 - up the hill almost in the snow.

The Willow Wind Bow is now:
Dex 16
Quick 16
100% quality
3.9 weapon speed
8.4 DPS
Don't Bother!

For the work involved...DON'T BOTHER with this bow! Consider this...

You have to get items from...
- A Great Tingler
- A Shrieking Willow
- A Woodeater King

The tingler and willow are easy enough. but then you gotta HIKE all the way over to Mularn and kill the Queen (to get the King to spawn), then kill the King and LIKELY get killed yourself cause the ENTIRE royal guard (which are blue to level 20) attacks.

ALL THAT WORK for a bow with:
6.5dps, 3.9spd and +6 to Dex and Qui

Sounds good right? WRONG. 6.5dps is your damage cap at level 20! That means this bow, that you can ONLY get once you're level 20, is already at max power at 20...Once you hit 21 (and your damage cap is 7.0), you're better off getting a different bow!

Plus the damage cap will only raise 0.3 per level. Noob. ;P

You're only better off when you find a 7.0 bow that's 100% quality.

My lvl 6 Hunter got a digestive sac drop from a regular wood-eater. :)

I had a perfect willow branch and sold it by mistake. Question: I've killed 10-15 willows but have not received a perfect willow branch again. Is this a normal drop or quest specific? Do I need to appeal or keep fighting willows?

Thanks

FOR HUNTERS ONLY

BEFORE ANYONE ELSE SAYS IT AGAIN. THIS IS A HUNTER ONLY QUEST AND THEREFORE CANNOT BE DONE BY ANYTHING ELSE. JUST HUNTERS, WHAT THE HELL IS A SPIRIT MASTER GOING TO DO WITH A BOW??
Hakon
# Feb 13 2002 at 2:24 AM Rating: Default
The NPC is named Hakon not Hakan, and this quest was not available to a level 21 spiritmaster.

Jeez, for the second time on this thread, this is a HUNTER only quest. Why would you want a bow as a reward, when you cant even use one? Of course, you could help someone with it. It only says Hunter only, and people have posted it. The exp wouldnt be worth it if you could do it anyway.
King or Young King?

is that mob called 'Wood-Eater King' or 'Young Wood-Eater King'?
RE: King or Young King?

Young Woodeater King will also drop the digestive sac. He will it for the quest and as a normal drop. Nice amount of coin recieved for just selling the sac, well at least for lvl 20

Its the Wood eater king. y\the yound one isnt the correct ant. You can also get the king to come to you by killing the wood eater queen. From Mularn, go out past the fort and to the hills. turn south to the tipof the hills and you'll find the point of the hill covered in woodeaters. Kill altes till the queen spawns and off her. (shes like level 8-10) 2-3 minutes later the king and the royal guard will charge up the hill after you. I did this quest at 20 and managed to kill the king, but the guards got me. The death was probably worth the bow though : )

Woodeater Young Kings
# Jan 06 2002 at 10:50 AM Rating: Default
will give you the digestive sac, which can be found near the hill with woodeater soldiers and alates. The young kings con green at lvl 16, ez to beat. He will have two grey woodeaters with him. He is near that guard tower leading to vas, I'll try to get more info for you. This is not the Hunter epic, though. The lvl 20 hunter epic is lieutentant salurne, or something like that.

The woodeater young king is in the Vale of Mularn, if I forgot to mention that. I have not done the quest, I'm only lvl 16, but I'm sure to keep the sac. Nice bow for reward, was just lookin at the stats. Hope it helps =)

Anybody have a more precise location for the Woodeater King? I've been wandering around but can only find a soldiers and one other big guy that I can't remember right now.
#Anonymous, Posted: Nov 21 2001 at 8:34 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) yes, it is because you are not a hunter that you will not get this quest. The quest is part of the hunter "epic"
#Anonymous, Posted: Nov 20 2001 at 12:42 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I'm afraid I think this quest is a hoax.
quest for hunters only
# Dec 26 2001 at 8:08 AM Rating: Default
as you already mentioned, you are no hunter. therefore you won't receive this quest
Woodeater King

I consistently see the Woodeater King further north, more between Mularn and Haggerfel. I've never seen him towards Vasudheim.
