Lore & Legends: A Comprehensive Guide

Comprehensive Lore & Legend Guide

Below you will find the hunting locations for all 33 enemy types that are needed for the Lore & Legend quests.  These are the quests that your Enemy Mastery is now tied to, as the Master Strike/Smite/Rage skill/spells now get better after finishing an L&L quest.

The following list contains not only the locations where each of the mob types can be found to hunt, but also the level required to start the quest (if applicable).  At the base of the guide will be the Title/Rank information for Hunter/Slayer/Destroyer and where to find those enemies if they are not listed in the L&L section.

Lore and Legend books are scattered throughout the lands of Norrath. Upon examining each of these 33 books, you will recieve a quest to collect 8 enemy body parts for that specific type of creature. The first three of these enemy body parts will be auto-drops which you will get at a random time after killing an unspecified number of the creature in question. The remaining five body parts will be body drops; you can loot them off corpses or buy them on the broker. Completing each of these quests will give you a furniture version of the quest book and a weapon you can mount on your wall, in addition to a nice amount achievement experience.

The EQ2Map addon is very helpful for finding these locations, in addition to a map for every zone!
This EQ2 Timeline link is another option for book locations, and approxamate levels you might get them at.
This link is a PDF document of the timeline, provided by another of our players, that also lists book locations and a handy check-off list. (GU31)

Hunter/Slayer/Destroyer Titles plus a PDF document for all others:

After many hours of looking through various forums for information, and coming up with very little, I've decided to try to compile a list of all the places to hunt the various enemies that are added to your kill count towards titles & Lore and Legend kills to get study drops.

25     = Killer
100    = Intiate Hunter
250    = Accomplished Hunter
500    = Master Hunter {Hunter of xxx} - 'Title'
1,000  = Intiate Slayer
2,500  = Accomplished Slayer
5,000  = Master Slayer {Slayer of xxx} - 'Title'
10,000 = Master Destroyer {Destroyer of xxx} - 'Title'

Here is the PDF of the complete list of attainable titles you can wear!

Thanks to Erve for bringing all this information together and everyone who has contributed information, many of which were on the old forums.
