Quest: Lynuga's Gem Collection
One of the cheapest quests to attempt and one of the best tools in the game: a Midnight Mallet slow on demand, so you can cut a hard-hitting enemy's attack speed even with no other way to slow it. The catch is that the turn-in gives a random reward, and Ivandyr's Hoop is the ultra-rare result, so it is a gamble each time. Turn in one ruby at a time; handing over several at once can eat the duplicate rewards.
It is an ear item (AC 6, WIS +6, INT +6, HP +6) with a clicky Midnight Mallet effect, an on-demand slow that cuts a target's attack speed. It is one of the best cheap tools in the game because it hands you a slow without needing a Shaman or Enchanter. Usable by all except Druid, Monk, and Bard.
Buy a single Ruby (about 130 platinum) and hand it to Lynuga in Innothule Swamp near the Guk entrance. She returns a random reward, and Ivandyr's Hoop is the rare result, so you may need to turn in several rubies to get it.
No. The turn-in gives a random reward and the Hoop is the ultra-rare outcome; the other results are weapons. Turn in one ruby at a time and repeat until you get it.
