Stonehand Armor Quests
Newbie armor quest for all human monks. All items drop in EC, WC, Nro, and can be bought off local vendors in those zones and all Freeport zones.
The quest is initiated by speaking to Klom Jysun, in the West Freeport monk's guild. He is near the entrance. Hail him and talk with him, and make sure to let him know that you are [interested]. He will give you the fighter's loom, 10 slot/ 10 wt. container which you may combine items in. Additionally, when you want to get a pattern to craft your hides with, simply inform him, "I want to craft a XXXXX".
When the stonehand hide and the correct pattern are placed in any sewing kit (small, large, or loom), the items will combine and you may use them.

Notes:
-Make sure, just as with quest turn ins and other combines, that items are unstacked.
-Giant scarab egg sacs and giant spider egg sacs have the same graphic, don't confuse them. Same as young plains cat scalps and matted lion pelts.
-While the bracers are not lore, the stonehand bracer hides are. Make an entire bracer before making a second one.
-Giant scarabs and the woodland lions are the most difficult mobs to handle. I would be at least level 10 for lions, and perhaps 11 for scarabs, solo.
-Quests can be done by an agnostic monk, with no faction work. No faction hits are given for completion of the armor.
