Horror of the Hills - Quest for the Shield Left Half

[WrathMonkey]

A door, placed neatly on the wall of an abandoned looking shack. It's features were but one - wood. Nothing intricate, no signs of any important. Just a door. And yet, this was the door.

 

A hand carried a small brass figure towards an opening in the handle. Entering and turning slowly, the key unlocked the door. A ladder was placed conviently to one side, a table on the other. Varrock's commerce wasn't close enough to be a bother for the ears. The person, clad in in a blue with a small bit of white tint, meandered down the path into the ground.

 

From behind came a blow, a large figure holding the club that did it. As the human that had been hit turned to see what had attacked him, another strike knocked him to the ground, and with him, his shield. The shield cracked in half down the middle, it's picture of a beautiful yet deadly dragon destroyed. The giant retrieved the left half, and wandered away, daring anyone who came close to steal it from him...

Okay, down to serious business. I hope you liked the intro (which referred to the Hill Giants and the Dragon Square Shield). What I'm questing for is the Shield Left Half, and from easy kills - the Hill Giants. I'll keep a log of what I get in drops, levels, etc. Hopefully I'll get that shield!

Okay, so when I was fightin' those Hillys, I admit, I was sneaking peeks at other blog. I was reading Leester's KQ head Blog (boy do you wanna get a bug's head on your wall :P), and I was wowed by the way his stories were so intriguing! I couldn't stop readin' it, even though I was supposed to be killin' Hillys. It's good, keep it up Leester!

 

And about the Hill Giants. It's pretty crowded, I'm using World 79. :\ But I refuse to switch! Hehehehehe...

 

Well, my Limpwurt Roots came in handy. Some guy was givin' me 1 cooked lob per limpwurt root. And since I don't like to go fish for my food, this was quite the deal for me. 21 Limpwurt Roots for 25 Lobs (he was generous). And then I traded those lobs for 12 Big Bones. Score!

Please no flaming, hi-jacking, etc. This is for the enjoyment of me and anyone else who is curious in how long it would take me to get a Shield Left Half from Hill Giants. Since this work is boring sometimes, and I don't want my readers to be bored, I might have a bit of a story line as to the adventures of killing Hill Giants and takin' that shield - so be prepared! If you don't like the stories, or don't want to read them, you don't have to. Thanks for anyone who's interested!

Good luck and nice intro.

 

 

 

 

 

But I suggest that you have a ROW because getting left half is rare enough with it.

[WrathMonkey]

XD

 

 

 

Thanks, I completely forgot that.

 

 

 

The big idea is not for the shield left half (which I probably won't get anyways :P), but to raise my combat and to have a load of bones in the end to raise my prayer.

[oilertay]

Crazy goal. Should be fun :P

[geoffreak]

I sure hope you have done legends as you can NEVER get a d half without doing the quest :-w

 

 

 

EDIT:

 

I looked you up and you have certainly NOT DONE LEGENDS.

 

You MUST DO LEGENDS for a dhalf to drop! :XD:
