I'll clean this up at some point since I'm doing the quest - right now I'm collecting the comments when you ask the second time about exp, if we can find the comment the first time you ask from the guildleaders besides Kssarh and Lomtaun I'd like to include it.--[[User:Mozzik|Mozzik]] 08:07, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

Rename article?

This is a pure walkthrough as opposed to being an article that describes the quest, so I think it should be renamed "100th Circle Moon Mage Quest walkthrough".

The link on the Moon Mage page should also reflect this IMO. I'd do it now but I can't quite figure out an elegant way to indicate that. In the best case there would be a main article about the quest which gets a link from the guild page, then the walkthrough article would be linked from that. --Farman 23:32, 20 February 2008 (CST)
