Growler and Seers

I found Growler at 7110, 2711 and killed him before speaking with him which does not advance the quest. He respawned at 8545, 2469, so he may move around a little. Both times he was East of the Carrion Drakes. He cons blue at level 13.

Also be careful running up the hill north from the tower in salisbury there is a group of Druid Seers at the top of the hill that you won't see until you've cleared the top of the hill and almost run into them. The Druid Seers conned orange at level 13.

If You kill Growler rather than doing the Growler necklace side quest, Sgt. Alain will send you on a different side quest titled; "Growler Mace Quest."

A quick run down follows:

Sgt Alain sends you to kill Cyfwich Difwych. (Loc- 50043, 12549) Cyfwich is blue at 13 and BAFed (Brought a friend) two other mobs, a green bandit thaumaturge and a grey bandit.

After you kill Cyfwich and get the item you go to West Downs in Salisbury Hills, to deliver an item to Beria, Apprentice Smith. Note- Her full name is, "Beria, Apprentice Smith" I didn't see her at first as I was looking for an npc with the tag Beria which is much shorter.

Beria gives you something to take to Contyth, Apprentice Smith in Humberton, Black Mountains south. Contyth gives you something to take to his father, Mathien, at Snowdonia Station in Black Mountains North.

Mathien sends you to kill Erick Redbeard. He only spawns at night in a camp of Red Dwarf Matrons. Sorry forgot to get a loc, it is directly east of snowdonia station you go up a very small hill and then there is a depression filled with trees. You can't miss it at night because of the matrons.

One of the Matrons is linked to Erick Redbeard. Both conned yellow at level 13, so be prepared for a fight.

After killing them Mathien sends you to the Guards Armorer with something else to deliver. The Guards Armorer gives you something to deliver back to Mathien.

Finally you get the Growler Mace, All told I got about 3 to 4 bubbles of experience at 13.

Kill tasking, and getting a spellbound azure mace for 6 auralite might be a faster method. The Azure Mace does a little less damage, has one less bonus to the crush skill, and 4 more strength. It also maxes out at 5.7 DPS whereas the Growler Mace tops out at 5.4 DPS, so the Azure Mace will last a little longer. Growler does more damage.
