What you need: 100 or more feathers (can be done with less but they’re cheap so why not play it safe?), a knife, an axe for chopping trees, a chisel and 6-10 wolf bones. You can gain wolf bones from level 64 wolves that are near the quest giver, but if you’re lower level you might consider spending around 4000 gold to buy them from the exchange.
Skill Requirements: 30 cooking, 30 ranged and 5 fletching
The Quest Reward: 2 quest points, 262 fletching xp, 1470 cooking xp, 735 ranged xp and the ability to make ogre arrows and wield them with the ogre bow.
This quest is started by talking to Rantz, an ogre located in an area called Feldip Hills, southeast of Yanille. Look for the quest marker on the map. You can get there easily by using a ring of dueling to teleport to Castle Wars arena then walking southeast (follow the impassable southern wall for a while and turn south when you’re passing Gu’tanoth). Rantz’s first task for you is to make some ogre arrows, specifically a set of six. You will want to make more for the hunting of a big chompy bird later. The only special item you need here is the Achey tree, which can be found just south of Rantz and more southwest around the swamp. The swamp is also a good place for higher levels to gather wolf bones free.
Once you’ve collected about 6 logs from Achey trees, carve them with your knife into ogre arrow shafts. Flight the arrow shafts by combining them with feathers, then use the chisel on wolf bones to make the arrowheads. Finally, combine the flighted shafts with the arrowheads (right click the arrow selection and choose make all to speed thngs up).
When you’ve got your arrows, give them to Rantz and he will tell you that you now need fat toadies. Listen to everything he has to say (click all the questions). When you’ve heard it out, go north into the cave and talk to his children. They’ll tell you they had an ogre bellows that they aren’t allowed to play with any more. It’s in the chest to the northwest. Choose unlock to remove the rocks from the top and snag the bellows. Now head back to the swamp.
Try to use the bellows on a frog and it’ll tell you to try some denser air. Use the bellows on the swamp bubbles (gross) and then try the frogs again. They’ll blow up. You’ll be allowed to catch three of them at once. Return to Rantz and ask him where to put the frogs, and he’ll point to the south. Go to where the marker is flashing and place a frog. Run away and talk to Rantz and let him know you placed the bait, then stay back. He’ll shoot at the bird when it comes. When he misses, offer to give it a go. Equip your bow and arrows and head south and place the bait again then scoot a full screen away. You can adjust the camera to see the bird at long range and lay in on him. You should have the opportunity to get a few shots off. Try using rapid fire or accurate shots. If you need to try more than two times, head back to the swamp and get more toads.
When you’ve finally got the meat, your cooking skill will come into play. Talk to Rantz again to find out what seasoning he would like. He’ll tell you to ask his boys what they’d want as well. The vegetables are in the following locations: Onion, Doogle Leaf and Tomato are west of the swamp. The onions come from the ground and a tomato can be found on the second stool from the swamp. Cabbage and Potato are both to be found southeast of Rantz. Equa Leaves are southeast of Rantz as well, but on a peninsula. When you’ve got all the ingredients, head back to the spit and cook the Big Chompy Bird meal. Talk to Rantz to wrap things up.
