yes it is supposedly an unsolved quest, along with dozens of other quests that were never solved on live. I would guess that:

A- the quest was broken, like so many other live quests and never fixed

B- nobody made any progression with it because no one wanted to run around handing in a super rare item to an NPC only to have it eaten

or C- the devs are full of shit and wanted to fuck with people

either way, since no one ever found any real information about a quest involving the item, it certainly has no quest on this server and therefore is best not handed into any NPC

I concur on the hundreds. Dev's stated a long time ago that there were over a hundred classic quests that had never even been started. And as someone who rewrote most of the classic quests here (and poorly I might add), I can confirm there was still a TON of them.

I asked Smed this on an AMA,
he confirmed GBS was never used in a live quest and just a rumor to me.

Norrath was ripe with UNFINISHED quests by the team, however, look at iksar pike line etc and references but unable to complete.

I spent over a year on that goddamn quest line. A goddamn YEAR.

I understand it was eventually fixed but by that point I'd already jumped ship.
