Walkthrough

1. Starting out. Enter the top floor of the Watchtower. It is possible to use another player's Watchtower portal to get here. Use World 330 (House Party) to find a host, look for the "Yanille portal". Otherwise, use the Nightmare Zone Minigame Teleport or use fairy ring. Climb the trellis outside the Watchtower and climb up the ladder to the second floor.
2. Getting the relic pieces and the first crystal. Talk to Og north-west of Yanille to receive Toban's key. Fairy ring and head west. If you use a ring of dueling, teleport to Castle Wars and head south past the bridges and then north-east until you find a tribe of ogres.
3. The Skavids and the second crystal. Enter Gu'Tanoth via the path on the north-east corner of the hills, then head west towards the gate. Enter by talking to the Ogre Guard with the ogre relic in your inventory. Go south-east to the market in the central area and steal a rock cake from the counter on the southern side. If you need a pestle and mortar and a vial, buy them from the Ogre merchant before stealing the rock cake.
4. The magic ogre potion. Go back to the Watchtower wizard and talk to him. If needed, fill a vial with water at the fountain in front of the watchtower. To create a vial of water add in the following order (do not use the ground bat bones first or the water will evaporate and you will need more bones):
5. Getting the other crystals. Prepare to defend yourself against the various ogres and a blue dragon in the Ogre Enclave. Don't forget your anti-dragon shield. Return to the market square of Gu'Tanoth. Use your nightshade on an Enclave guard to enter the cave again.
