Harvest Festival Troves and Trickery
Apparently the goodly denizens of Middle Earth enjoy a good piece of tomfoolery now and then. The antics reach their apex during the Autumn Harvest Festival when adventurers and crafting folk are invited to play tricks on others in return for harvest tokens and four special masks.
The masks are divided racially:
- Dwarf Mask – Bucket Head
- Man Mask – Beaver
- Hobbit Mask – Jack O’ Lantern (Pumpkin)
- Elf Mask – Rabbit
Each mask costs 12 harvest tokens and a mask promissory note you receive after completing a Trove and Trickery quest. You can repeat each of these four quests once per day and each time you complete one you will earn 3 Harvest Tokens. Be careful to only choose the Mask promissory note once as a reward – you only need one note for your mask.
These masks are purely cosmetic and look … pretty interesting. They are non-binding, so you can transfer them to an alternate character or give them to friends if you like.
To complete each of the quests you must find four denizens of that town and perform an emote while targeting them. You can recognize which NPC you need to talk to by a blue ring above their head. Each one will provide you with a clue as to what emote you should perform.
I have listed the appropriate NPC, their location and the proper emote for each quest below:
Hobbiton
You can take this quest from Trickster Egbert Took (29.9S,71.4W), located under a tent on the west side of the Party Tree.
- Porto Brownlock (30.6S,70.7W) /smoke
- Ted Sandyman (30.8S,71.2W) /stretch
- Lobelia Sackville-Baggins (29.4S,71.3W) /faint
- Daddy Twofoot (31.4S,71.1W) /pick
Duillond
The Elven Troves and Tricks quest comes from Trickster Gloreniel (24.5S,93.1W) who is located near the path just outside the area of the Elven festivities in Duillond.
- Lubathred (24.3S,92.5W) /cower
- Fanhir (24.0S,92.6W) /roar
- Nathrowen (24.2S,92.7W) /handstand
- Barchiril (25.0S,90.6W) /whippitydo
Bree
A lot of people miss Trickster Bryony Elmwood (30.1S,51.3W), because they expect her to be near the Bree-land party area, but in fact she is located near the Boar Fountain in central Bree town. All the NPCs to be tricked are also located within Bree.
- Tad Ashmead (31.3S,51.1W) /dustoff
- Tad Leafcutter (31.8S,51.4W) /shiver
- Matt Heathertoes (31.2S,52.5W) /mock
- Lily Sandheaver (29.4S,52.3W) /yawn
Thorin’s Hall
You get the Dwarven Troves and Tricks quest from Trickster Guthlag located to the right of the large statue in the entrance. Finding the NPCs to trick here from a list like this is slightly more challenging because the ;loc command does not work in Thorin’s Hall.
- Fathi, Kaupi or Farmann (Auctioneers in room behind Guthlag) /charge
- Adwyn Flameye(near the hunter trainer) /pushups
- Dwalin(on the throne in very back) /tantrum
- Egil Oldbeard (in Maker’s Hall near a supplier) /flex
