Walkthrough:

1. Head to the Ogress Town of Oo'glog, south of the Feldip Hills. Talk to Chief Tess north of the bank. Ask her what's going on, then about the business venture. Offer to help.

2. Go south to the bank and talk to Balnea - offer to help.

3. Go north of the bank and talk to Chargurr by the firepit.

Exit the town to the west (be careful as this is a multi combat area).

Cut 10 eucalyptus logs (165 xp per cut). Take these and 8 achey tree logs and use them on Chargurr.

4. Talk to Chargurr again. Use one of 4 spears on Chargurr then use one of two raw chompys on her. Finally use a tinderbox on the fire pit.

5. Head back to the bank and talk to Balnea again. Agree to talk to Snurgh. Leave the bank and go 2 buildings east. Talk to Snurgh and offer to get some feathers.

6. Take a bird snare and go just north of Oo'glog (just outside).

Catch 1-2 Tropical wagtails to get at least 8 stripy feathers. Take these back to Snurgh.

7. Head back to the bank and talk to Balnea again. Say

a) You need me to go to the salon right?
b) Yeah sure, I'll go to the salon

8. Enter the building east of the bank and talk to Kringk.

Offer to help. Take a knife, wc axe and teasing stick to the Larupia hunting area north of Oo'glog. Catch Larupias until you have 8 furs. Kill 4 wolves and take the bones. Take all these items back to Kringk.

9. Talk to Balnea in the bank again. Next enter the building north-east of the bank and talk to Seegud.

You must now burn the correct things at the pools around Ooglog:

Every fire needs a Eucalyptus

Long brown rock - Eucalyptus
Green lump shaped rock - Fever grass
Red round rock - Primweed
Yellow egg-shaped rock - Tansymum
Orange, squarish rock - Stinkbloom
Tall purple rock - Lavender

All the trees and herbs are just outside Oo'glog to the west.

Take a few of each one and use the right ones with a fire pit by one of the pools. Light it to find out the rocks have been switched.

10. Talk to Seegud again to find out that the child ogres have switched what herbs the rocks represent. You must now use process of elimination to work out which rocks represent which herbs.

11. Start with the thermal pool just north of Seergud as this only needs one herb.

Then do the following (write down what herbs match which stones as you go along):

East to the mud bath
West to the salt water spring
West to Sulpher spring
Southwest to Bandos pool

12. Go back and talk to Seegud then return to Balnea at the bank. Agree to go hunting and talk to Chief Tess (where you started the quest). She tells you how to catch diseased kebbits, wimpy birds and platypodes.

13. Head out of the city and get the following herbs: 4 lavender, 4 fever grass and 5 tansymum.

14. Return to Oo'glog and un-equip your weapons. Set up a box trap north of the bandos pool and light lavander with a tinder box to lure 4 platypuses into the box trap.

Next go to the platypus holes to the north-east of town and "release" the 4 platypus' you caught.

15. Now in the same way hunt (but no need to release):

a) 5 Wimpy birds west of the general shop using a bird snare and smouldering tansymum
b) 4 diseased kebbits near the salt water pool using smouldering fever grass.

(extra herbs to burn may be required)

16. Report back to Balnea in the bank.

A cut scene follows and it's quest complete!

 

Reward: 15,000 firemaking xp, 15,000 hunter xp, 15,000 woodcutting xp, access to spa facilities, Oo'glog hunger area and platypus pet.

QP Reward: 1

Note: you can now use the pools to gain the following bonuses

Bandos Pool - "favour of Bandos" stops bandos followers attacking you for an hour at Godwars

Sulpher spring - Re-charges prayer and gives 8 extra points.

Salt-water spring: Restores run energy and gives unlimited for a period of time.

Thermal bath - seriously increases hp and also makes you immune to disease and poison.

Mud bath - Raises your hunter level but not above the maximum level 99.


Note: you can also charter a boat from the peer at the east end of Oo'glog.
