The Search for the titan key mold
For those interested in working through the clues.

Equip the following toys on an action bar: Idol of Ohn'ahra, Torch of Pyrreth and Tricked-Out Thinking Cap. Turn off the buff for the Tricked-Out Thinking Cap until later.

Bobby Carlisle in the Rotten Ram gives you A Key Story which directs you to Weaponsmith Koref. (Turn right as you leave the Rotten Ram, walk down a nearby set of stairs and walk across a plaza. Enter the round blacksmithing building.) The Weaponsmith gives you the tale of The Blacksmith and the Apprentice.

The tale

Deep in Cloverwood Hollow, swallowed by a sylvan glade, worked a smith with his apprentice. One day their forge was attacked by thieves. The smith told his apprentice to hide their most treasured crafts, including the mold to an incredible key said be crafted for Keeper Tyr himself. The smith then went off to hold off the attackers.

With little time, the apprentice cast a spell to obscure the mold by blending it into the masonry. To find it again, she magicked a stone table to react to their torches and display the location of the mold. As a last precaution, she ensured that only those with the eyes of Ohn'ahra would be able to spot the Mold against the masonry.

The key words in the tale are "she magicked a stone table to react to their torches and display the location of the mold."

The question is: Do you need to find the clue which contains Cogs & Bogs coordinates to complete the quest? Because once you have the coordinates, you can ignore them and follow the beam of the Idol of Ohn'ahra to the rubble.

The Torch interacts with a stone tablet/plaque near a small broken table. Clicking on the tablet reveals a clue that contains the coordinates for the mold.

1	Use the Idol of Ohn'ahra and Torch of Pyrreth to find a stone tablet/plaque near a small broken table. Walk around the pavillion, staying close to the columns. Near one of the columns, the flame of Torch of Pyrreth show a halo around it. As you walk closer to a small broken table, flame will shoot from the torch to a tablet/plaque on the ground next to the small table. (See screenshots.) The tablet has markings on it. Click to decipher the clue: "Hastily scrawled numbers are visible on the enchanted plaque. (-3, -2). Did the apprentice know about coodinates system the titans used?" Equip the Tricked-Out Thinking Cap. This resets the location of the tablet to (0, 0) Cogs-Bolts coordinates. If you've been wearing Tricked-Out Thinking Cap all along, click the cap buff at the top of the screen to turn off the cap. Then re-equip the cap to reset coordinates.
2a	Use the coordinates to find the key mold. The coordinates (-3, -2) mean the key mold is close. Wander across the pavillion, watching the yellow coordinates at the top middle of the screen. You'll end up near a column and an open book. Search the stone rubble around the base of the column. Mouseover the area, watching for a cogwheel.
2b	(Easiest) Use Idol of Ohn'ahra to find the key mold. The Idol projects a blue beam that always points to an open book near a large table. Search the rubble at the base of the column near the open book. There are orange flowers near this column. Mouseover the rubble, looking for a cogwheel. It's there. Click and you have the key mold. (See the screenshots with the orange flower.)

What to do if you can't find the ruined pavillion?

Open the zone map. Search the area under the letter "H" in "Cloverdale Hollow". This will be a wooded area in the Sylvan Glade.

This mission doesn't appear for me at the inn, but I did all the previous ones. I've already logged out and even disconnected, but it still doesn't appear. Does anyone know the reason?

Thanks

A Key Story

Seek out Weaponsmith Koref and interview him about the key.

Description

Here for the latest? Well, have I got news for you. A weaponsmith was just here visiting Tithris. Koref, I think? Couldn't help but overhear their discussion about some sort of ancient key. Might be of interest to you, what with all your artifact hunting. Weaponsmith Koref was headed back to the Obsidian Enclave. You should head there and get the scoop about this ancient key.
