Hands and Coffers
I really really don't want people changing this information, so I'm going to lay out what is known, and why I (and the other admins) take this stance regarding the connection between the Hands quest and obtaining your coffer AF pieces.

Our little taru admin, Nynaeve, has experience proof of the connection, and I will lay it out here for all to see. She is a natural WHM and has leveled not one, but two WHMs past 60 (one hume, now her taru as well). The second time around, she was able to complete her starting AF quests (Messenger from Beyond, Prelude of Black and White, and Pieuje's Decision; aka AF1, AF2 and AF3). She then obtained an appropriate coffer key, went to open one of her coffers, and got nothing. To her dismay, she realized she hadn't activated the hands quest yet. She activated it, obtained another key, and successfully obtained her coffer at that point. This was before she had "finished" the hands quest by defeating Dark Spark and obtaining her hands, so the completion of the hands quest is not necessary, only the activation.

To keep as much information on the individual pages without flooding it, we merely put the quest the coffer pieces are linked to (Borghertz Somethingsomething Hands), and the coffer you get it from in parenthesis. Changing this information to just the coffer (without discussing it) will result in immediate reversion of your edit. If you have convincing contradicting information regarding this, I'm willing to listen, but unless that happens, I consider this case closed. Thank you for understanding. --Chrisjander 21:16, 24 January 2007 (EST)
