Quest Name: Tools of the Trade
Triggered: When you reach the Monastery
Given by: Charsi the Blacksmith
Location: The Smith\'s room in the Barracks
Reward: Charsi will imbue an item for you. This means take any normal item and make it into a Rare with random stats, based on your character level.
Quest Priority: Not a mandatory quest, but the reward is very valuable. SAVE IT UNTILL YOU ARE A HIGH CHARACTER LEVEL, AS THE IMBUE WILL GET SKILLS AND OTHER MORE USEFULL STATS!
When you get near the Barracks, Charsi will be activated to ask you to retrieve a smithing hammer she had to leave in the Monastery when they fled the sudden invasion of demons lead by Andariel. You need to find the inner room (in a random location each game) of the Barracks level (first level inside the Monastery) with the forge and the hammer on a stand. It is guarded by the Smith, a large boss monster reminiscent of the Butcher from Diablo. He will pursue you at a high rate of speed and is a pretty nasty fight. He hits very hard and has a lot of hit points. You however do not need to kill him, you can just dodge around him and grab it from the stand. Once you return to town and click on Charsi she\'ll claim the hammer, even if you have it in your stash.
Tip: The Smith can\'t open doors, so if you are a ranged attacker and can\'t take him toe to toe (which is pretty likely unless you have extremely good equipment for your level) you can lead him through the Barracks to one of the barred walls or corners, such as the one around the steps leading down, and close the door. He\'ll pace on the other side of it, but won\'t open the door, giving you free shots.
Reward: The Imbue. This one should be executed at specific levels, depending on which type of item you are going to Imbue, and what you want on it.
