Jack's rings

Profession specific quests

Introduction

There are 12 NPCs scattered around Rubi-Ka that give out unique quests. The rewards from these quests are profession specific. Every profession can talk to any of them, but unless it's their designated NPC, they won't get very far!

Each NPC wants your help in retrieving a specific item from Jack "Leg-Chopper" Menendez. The real Jack doesn't actually drop any of the requested items though. Instead you should locate one of his 5 clones that are scattered around Varmint Woods. The clones spawn with placeholders, Soul Swappers, (15min spawn) and have close to a 100% drop chance on one of the quest items. The drops are random, so you might spend some time looking for right one for your profession.

A couple of tips before you start:
  • Get your profession specific item prior to pulling the quest.
  • Only the middle Soul Swapper in a camp is a place-holder; you can ignore the rest of them if they don't attack you first.
  • Try to circle around several camps killing the placeholders; you'll get more chance of spawning a clone.




Soul Swapper


Jack "Leg-chopper" Clone


Jack Legchopper Clones can be found at the following locations:
  • Jack Legchopper Clone #1
    Varmint Woods - 2830x2720

  • Jack Legchopper Clone #2
    Varmint Woods - 2170x1100

  • Jack Legchopper Clone #3
    Varmint Woods - 3750x1005

  • Jack Legchopper Clone #4
    Varmint Woods - 2515x440

  • Jack Legchopper Clone #5

Clones are no push-over. They spawn in ql 150-160 range. If you plan to do this quest at intended level, you definitely need a team. Or an end-game friend. But the reward, at least for some professions, is worth the troubles. With different base abilities and even treatment, these rings are interesting even to players with expansions. For each profession's NPC, item needed and reward, please consult the lists below.
