Walkthrough[edit]

Seize a frog from across the river, when you do so you'll gain the effects Fresh Catch.png Slippery Frog, Gliding Disabled.png Gliding Disabled and Mounts Disabled.png No Mount Use. Then you must cross the river back through the paths made of logs that float down the river. You can throw the frog into the soup from a distance instead of walking up to the pot. If you touch the water you'll lose the frog.

Dialogue[edit]

Before event begins
Tempered Flame: Eh? Not nearly as good, I think. Missing something to break up the flavor. Herb's got the broth tasting all wrong.
Tempered Flame: Frogs. Yeah, frogs. That'd do it... Just too bad I don't feel like wrestling them into the pot myself.
Tempered Flame: Went straight over the falls last time. Fading Aurora still owes me a remedy for the back pain... Getting too old for that.
Tempered Flame: Not a hassle I want to cope with today. Plus, the soup'll burn. Council will put me on cub storytellin' for the mockery.
Approaching the event
Tempered Flame: Oh? Ah. The wayfinder.
Tempered Flame: Oh! The wayfinder! You're supposed to be making friends with Auld and the council, aren't you?
Tempered Flame: Bet you're having real fun with all sorts of mundane tasks, eh? Say, I've got friends in high places. Help me; I help you.
Tempered Flame: This frog stew? Auld's favorite. Just missing the frogs. Too bad I can't step away from my pot to grab 'em myself.
Tempered Flame: So, what do you say? Lend a paw, make the Claw's day. Just avoid the river. Get too close and you'll slip in. Frog'll get away.
Event trigger
Tempered Flame: So, wanna help me with the frogs? Just need to nip across the river right quick, grab one, and throw it in the pot. Easy as can be, right?
Talk ready option.png Sure. Not the strangest request I've gotten.
Talk end option tango.png Sorry, I'm strictly a toad catcher.
Talking to Tempered Flame during the event
Tempered Flame: Frog grabbing is an art, you see? And you can get over the river any way you want---the logs, your mounts, that weird mushroom, even the bridge. Creative thinking is key.
Talk more option tango.png What about once you have a frog?
Ah, that's the tricky part. Enter the water, and they'll slip out of your hand. Move too far away from water, they'll panic and escape. Lose them, and they'll be down the river before you know it.
Talk end option tango.png Sounds tricky, but I'll try my best.
Talk end option tango.png I guess that's straightforward enough.
Adding a frog to the stew
Tempered Flame: Good catch. Plump as harvest's first pumpkin.
Tempered Flame: Fair to admit you're doing just fine.
Tempered Flame: There you go. Broth thicker than a bog.
At 2:30 time remaining
Tempered Flame: Ah, stew's gonna go bad if it's on the heat much longer. Sure you can't go any faster? Be a shame to lose the whole batch.
Event success
Tempered Flame: Ah, that's perfect now. Take a good, big smell of that pot. Good enough for the Night Sun Festival.
Tempered Flame: You're a real friend of the bearkin, aren't you? When I serve this up, I'll tell the council you helped make it.
Event failure
Tempered Flame: There it goes. It's too bad, but there'll be other brews.
Tempered Flame: Don't sweat your boots off. I made catchin' frogs sound like a game. Far from it.
Tempered Flame: Looks like kid's work, but we were taught as cubs. Second nature to the bearkin. Appreciate the effort, though.

Notes[edit]

  • The event restarts 5 minutes after its last completion (success or failure). Tempered Flame will spawn near the bridge northeast of Valravn's Perch and walk until he sets up the soup pot, at which point the event can be triggered.
  • The theme of frogs and crossing a river through a path made of logs is probably a reference to Frogger.
