Nice dedication, and grats! I'm curious what equipment you ended up with. Looks like a good bit of chain. Was crafted armor (quest I mean, not tradeskilled) not soloable?
I am wearing crafted gauntlets, arms and legs. I tried to make a go at crafted breastplate but it was too difficult to sneak into Mistmoore Castle, even with levitate. I didn't opt to try for the other pieces. Because my base STR is so low as a Dark Elf, I had to prioritize strength gear and low weight - hence the Topknot Headband, Bracers of Erollisi and Hero Bracers. I spent a long time (2+ months) leveling in South Karana and managed to kill three Quillmanes (and died once to one), one of which had the Pegasus Feather Cloak. Most importantly for the build was the Axe of the Slayers and the Mithril Plated Girth (a five-week camp for me) from Grazhak the Berserker in Rathe Mountains and a Runed Oak Bow from SK for kiting, which became essential in the later levels after I could no longer stand toe-to-toe with mobs that gave exp.

Imagine if you just like , drove Uber or something productive with all that time. You'd have ten thousand dollars
I live in a rural area, so no Uber. I have a modest-paying but high-stress job that is fulfilling. I often play at sporadic times, so grouping is hard. I also really like soloing, and soloing is a great way to unwind.

Yes, I am curious about what gear you ended up with, and would love to hear some of the highlights of the quest.
I listed most of the gear there earlier, but some of the highlights included grinding for days in Kithicor Woods off of orcs to get enough Highpass faction to hunt a PGT, killing that Quillmane for the cloak, helping a bunch of people in EK figure out the Hill Giant spawns (need to add that to the wiki eventually), and beating Trazdon in Najena for the pants with 10 HP remaining.

Also getting glorious revenge on Tarn Bearcrusher many, many times.
