Regardless of your race and even if you're high level, you can do the Ivy quest. The reward might seem pretty awesome (to some people). So I decided to make a formal guide that will explain the steps needed to successfully complete the quest. I plan to put those zerk scrolls to good use!

Credits:
Hajime Saito posted a rough guide created by Illumi. I used that as a basis to create this one, adding in missing details etc.

Shahad’s Mail:
The Ivy Quest begins in Sarmakand with the Hunter Guild. Speak with Shahad He will give you a letter to deliver to Constantinople, you must ride a horse or walk to Constantinople and deliver the letter to General Ratchel, who stands south of the Stable, at the Military Camp.
REWARD:
21,000 Exp
2,700 Skill Exp
6,000 gold

Ivy 1
Recommended level: 25
Speak with General Ratchel again to accept the next quest, she will tell you how to capture a Closier Informant. But before you go running off to find these, you must go do Adventurer Demetri to get the traps. He stands to the right of storage in Constantinople.

Demetri’s Quest:
You need 20 vine stalks. You get these from killing Evil Order Soldiers at Haran's Tower. You need approximately 45 small knives that are dropped only by the soldiers. To turn these into vines you need to run to The Pond Ruins because it only works disjointing here. You can disjoint these like you did with the charms at the Taoist quest (right-click on the items). If you do not get 20 vines, just go back and kill more soldiers for more small knives. After you collect 20 vine stalks, run back to Constantinople and speak with Demetri, he will give you your reward and 5 traps.
REWARD:
60,000 Exp
8,000 Skill Exp
15,000 gold

Ivy 1
Recommended level: 30
Now with the traps you got from the Demetri’s quest, find the Closier informants that are in front of the Amphitheater. They will have the yellow/orange quest icon above their heads. Right click a trap so it's laid on the ground (red kind of net thing) you need to lure an Informant into the trap, easiest way is to PUNCH it (without weapon) then run over your trap so it follows you. When you have one Closier informant imprisoned, run to Constantinople within 30 minutes. Running, not riding on a horse or transport because: On the way Closier Guardians spawn. You must kill 15. They spawn approximately every 60 seconds. After the 15 are killed, run into the city and deliver the quest to General Ratchel.
REWARD:
24,000 Exp
2,800 Skill Exp
5 Repair Hammers

Ivy 2
Recommended level: 35
- Must be in an Exp / Item share party with at least 2 members (leader and a friend)
- Party leader must have Ivy 2 quest.
Talk with General Ratchel to get Ivy 2. You get 5 horns when you accept. Now, you use these horns @ Harans Tower, Cleopatra’s Gate and Amphitheater. There you must activate a horn at certain places (usually at the entrances, just keep trying hehe). A Closier Leader will spawn if you activate the horn in the right area. Kill the monster, it will drop a sign for each party member in the proximity, however only the leader needs the item. When the leader has all the signs from monsters of the 3 places, then you kill Punishers at the Amphitheater until it drops Punisher's Blood.

When you get the Punisher's Blood, right click it and all 3 stones will become a key. With this key you must go to Evil Fortress into the center of the 'Den'. When you stand here, all other party members must be away from you so their faces are 100% blue on the party bar (only if they are not fighting with you, otherwise you should stay near each other so that you both with teleport). You now right click the key and you will be teleported to a private area. Captain Ivy will spawn after a short time in your proximity. Within 20 minutes you must kill Ivy. After you kill her you get a hair. A blue teleport diamond thing will appear, teleport , go to Constantinople and deliver the quest to General Ratchel and receive your reward.
REWARD:
40,000 Exp
4,000 Skill Exp
20 Memory of Red Hair (zerk scrolls)

Misc. Info:
-With successful quest you get 20 Scrolls, which will completely fill your berserk immediately when it's empty and not in use.
-If your party member has already completed the Ivy 2 quest, he/she can teleport with you to fight Captain Ivy.
-If you die while fighting Ivy, you can still complete the quest if your party member(s) kill Ivy.

Enjoy!

Nice work

Omg i soooo want those scrolls! Zerk Thief FTW

Nice guide

Thx all

And yea thanks to those zerk scrolls, I finally got Isy last night over a crowd of full 8th degree peeps. (im only 64) And saving the rest for Yarkie.. if I ever get to 75+ lol.

Grats ^^
Did ya get any screenies?

Nope but there is a video in my sig

That video is awesome

Nice guide. Me and my friends are going doing Ivy 1 right now. Also, quick question, Does your friends only have to be in the party in order to join in the fight? Or do they have to have the Quest also? Also, does Ivy give exp at the end of the fight? Because it would suck if it was only 40k exp...

Your friend has to have the Ivy 2 quest or completed the quest already to go with you. As far exp for the kill, you do get it, not sure how much tho.

Nice guide. Sure helped me with the quest.

wow its about time someone made one Nice job.

now i can tell all the guild/union members that have asked about this quest to use this guide. thanks.

Great guide, off to do it! ill edit later and tell you all how it went

btw im lvl 44 ^^

well im lvl35 so ima do those quest just for the zerk scrolls
and Ivy i guess

The guide was great followed it all the way and killed her ^^

pics!:

She had ALOT of hp, but did like 40 dmg on me >_>



Yay she's dead! And a whole 4 mins left



And ofcourse i dc'd right after i get teleported and have to run to constantinople -.-



Was fun though

She does have a lot of hp! Good thing is she doesn't spawn any elites or giants Gratz to all who completed the quest!

lol i missed that quest.

aw i want more experience
i just finished ivy 1 quest and the second is facing her
BTW: im lvl35 not lvl 44 like others

I'll be lvl 45 soon (44 74%).I would like to know if she will give me any xp(more then 1xp and 1sp,something like a couple of k's) when i'll kill her and if i can kill her alone..don't know how much dmg she can give but i guess since she's lvl 30 and i'm 45..i'll pwn her.The question is if she will give me any xp after i kill her(not the reward ,that's another thing ).
I'am a full str warrior(obvious that i'm full str).I hate those traps that r there,in my inventory, since the closier informant quest..thx in advance.

Thanks for the guide

Did it on both my 80 and 7x char xD The quest is awesome for when you're a bored high level <3

Hi Lia (Sylar_ here )
could i do this quest as a lvl 35 ?
what lvl is captain Ivy ?

ok im also lvl 44 (~53%). She did about an average of 20-40 dmg on me (wearing garms)
And i did it on my own, easy but she has a lot of hp >_>
No you will get crap exp from here lol 0.11%
The traps you can just use anywhere outside a town to get rid of them.

So all in all, to do this quest its just for respect and the rage scrolls ^^

[edit]:



You can probably do is pretty easily at lvl 35, but i would want a party
because of the time limit.

Captain Ivy is a lvl 30 unique. But doesnt spawn anything, often does
knockback, knockdown and stun though.

that video was insane ill do it later on when i can do more dmg =D im lvl 30 so ill wait till lvl 40 by this time ill have strong bow =D

Thanks, and great guide. You should post this on SRA

I sure will

And as far as the exp goes for the kill itself.. its based on your level. I honestly can't remember how much I got, I was lvl 64 at the time.

Captain Ivy is lvl 30.

So far I've done the trap quest, needed 33 quest items.
My brother is also done with it already
soon we'll do the icy 1 party :p

just finished lvl 28 :/ 640k of xp with 60% xp helper

Screen or it didn't happen.
Anyway, missed it the first time... my bro didn't get the items so we had to aboadon the first try... now he'll get that blood and then we can hopefully do it...

Here we go




And then... the end...

Level 37, gap 5...

Weird... o.O

wtf to do with the rest of the informant traps, can't sell em
actually says Reward: informant trap in the quest guide, are these for something other than capturing informants?
