Ask Tallis about them. Read up on the Immortals. Learn Uncurse, or find someone who can cast it for you. Ask for help from someone with roughly double or triple your combat ranks, plus a hefty amount of perception and skinning.

I do not. There a number of people who'd be willing to take you on both quests, though, and who also know the entire thing backwards and better than the back of their hand.

Try posting in General Discussions, and wait a day or two for people to drop in with replies.

I've taken several clerics down there for the infusion. I'm always looking to get access to lachs anyway. Gweth when you get to Ilithi, I'll help you out.

yeah what Hanyru said- there are a considerable collection of clerics in Shard nowadays and most of us would be willing to take you down to the infusion quest area and help you out. I won't figure it out for you- well mainly because I forget this stuff too quickly and that can result in some pain for those I am helping...but getting you there and helping you with the combat stuff, skinning stuff- just gweth in Shard that you want to do the infusion quest and you shouldn't have too hard a time getting some aid.

But do as Diarik said first- do all of your research. Don't rely on other people to be your brains, just your brawn.

Hanryui- likewise- you ever need anyone to help you get in, just shout and if Flavius is around will be glad to at the least uncurse the door for you. Probably go on down there too.

If you kept TM and skinning up you don't need help, just CJ.

They aren't all that hard to kill or skin if you use a little caution. They also don't require that much perception to see.

Alternatively you could just ask someone to bring you three lach claws and skip that step entirely. Then you just need to grab yourself an invisibility ring and do your homework.

Ditto what Flav said. Look me up as well for the infuse quest as I'm in Shard. Also don't wear alotta fluff, just the basics..makes dying a whole lot easier!

Reene has a point- you don't need help doing the quest, though I think it is more fun. And also, you don't really need CJ's either, you could just train to the point where you can do it all on your own. I think thats much more doable for the infusion quest than the resurrection quest, but either is possible.

As basic requirements for infusion on your own, no cj's I would suggest roughly:
a) Have Uncurse
b) Bring a lockpick
c) Bring a skinning implement
d) skinning- maybe 100? 120?
e) TM- probably should be fine with 150-180- lower if you also have PS
f) perception- living dangerously, you can go down there with any level of perception- lachs are running around unhidden alot. However, I would recommend more than 140 perception, or some boost to go over that. Do not choose Revelation simply for this quest.

And such is why I don't attempt to tell people how to do the quest....I always forget stuff. Another apology to the player of the last character I "helped" out with the quest....

Can't learn uncurse without bless anyway.

I was rarely getting claws at 100ish skinning. You're looking at 130, realistically.

Killing lachs with 150-180ish TM is very easy if you have a way to disable them. PS does the trick nicely and I highly recommend it.

Don't go in if you don't have around 150 perception or a way to raise yourself to that amount, getting coldcocked sucks and will lead to your imprisonment and/or death.

It's a little steep for 25th circle, but with some preparation and forethought it's very much doable solo. Going in with a group can be very fun, though, especially if it's you and a couple of other 25th circlers doing the quest together. I just recommend against looking for someone to just drag you through the entire thing and do everything for you. It's not as fun that way.

Plus, I know Pfanston has escorted a large number of clerics on the Infusion quest. So do I if you can't find anyone else.

And when you get ready for the raise quest here's what you'll need as a minimum along with a capable guide:

Swimming: 30+
Climbing: 80+ or a CJ booster or a friendly ranger willing to tag along and cast Spider Climb
Pilgrim's badge if you have one since there are two badge altars on the way.
Goblet from Tallis, colored ebon via a puzzle in the Crossing Temple
Altar Candle with lighting tools

And Redarch is great at it also. Just wanted to throw that out there. He helped me through it and even though my climbing hindered me, I was still able to make it through.
