Background
To receive this quest, you'll need to pick up the quest
Batiri Bargain from Vadin'ya in Samargol, and you'll need to negotiate with the batiri in the Shattered Spear Tribe cave, rather than attack them.
Walkthrough
You'll meet Cuamogh, the leader of the batiri tribe, in the back of the Shattered Spear Tribe cave (#5). When you ask her about the
Flawless Gem that Vadin'ya is looking for, she'll make you a deal. If you can retrieve an ancient relic -- the spear that gave her tribe its name -- then she'll trade you the gem for it.
You'll find the relic in the Ruined Temple to the south. The temple can be rough. Inside, you'll have to deal with yuan-ti holy guardians, spider constructs, and traps. Assuming that you survive, you'll find a
Scimitar +2, a
Ring of Resistance +2, and more on the remains of the temple's defenders, and you'll find the
Shattered Spear in the temple's vault (#9).
When you deliver the spear to Cuamogh, she'll reward you with 1600 xp, plus the
Flawless Gem for Vadin'ya. "Cuamogh shall be chieftess, matriarch for always!"
Note: If you attack the batiri, then Cuamogh will drop the
Flawless Gem when she dies, and the other batiri will drop some minor items, like
Hide Armor +1 and a
Handaxe +1.
Another Note: If you kill the batiri at the Shattered Spear Tribe and at the Stone Knives Tribe, then you'll receive the Bane of the Batiri feat. The feat doesn't do anything, though.
1 - Batiri Guard
When you enter the cave, this guard will challenge you, and you'll have to make a decision. If you agree to negotiate with the batiri, then you'll be able to explore the cave (and loot all of the containers) peaceably. If you state your intention to attack the batiri, then all of the batiri in the cave will descend upon you, possibly giving you a tough fight.
2 - Weapon Rack
Inside this weapon rack you'll find a
Spear +1 and 99
Arrows +1.
3 - Weapon Rack
Inside this weapon rack you'll find a
Batiri Club and a
Light Shield +1.
4 - Chest
Inside this chest you'll find an
Amulet of Natural Armor +1, plus some gems, potions, and spell scrolls.
5 - Cuamogh
6 - Locked Door
In order to open this locked door (#6), you'll need to pull the lever to the west (#6a).
7 - Bookshelf
Inside the bookshelf, you'll find a
Ruin Fragment, the
Sauringar Tome, and several spell scrolls. You'll need the
Ruin Fragment for one of
Volo's quests.
8 - Locked Door
This door has a DC of 40, but if you can't pick it with your rogue, then you can always bash it down. Just be careful of the trap on it.
9 - Treasure Chamber
Inside this room you'll find two trapped chests containing
Bracers of Armor +1, a
Wand of Fireball, a
Shattered Spear, and more.
Exits:
