Halfling Shire is the home of the Halflings and reside in the Great Plains. They generally are a peaceful race, but do not like people who do no enjoy a variety of food or who are too ambitious.
Finding their home is pretty easy. From the Great Plains' teleport spot, just go North twice and the Shire entrance will be to the West.
So basically to avoid being attacked you want to have
- As few Quest Points as possible and/or
- As many different foods as possible and/or
- Not be Xtrocity, cause halflings just hate him.
Quest Points DO affect getting into the Shire, the lower number, the less foods types you'll need to be safe. At 100 QP you need at least 12 foods, at 200 QP its 14, etc.
No requirements are needed to exit the Great Plains and stand at the first spot of the Shire. If you don't meet the number of foods to Quest Point ratio there will be a chance that first guard can attack you, though it's pretty low. You'll be denied entry at that point unless you are carrying enough food types.
I was able to enter with 258 QP and 9 different food types. I then spent quite a bit of time trying to get them to attack me, to no avail. Just collect at least 16 different types of food, an easy feat at just about any level, and you'll be fine.
When you walk in, its pretty uneventful until you get at the 6 way in the middle.
- If you go Northeast, you will run into another Food Shop, and if your a member of the Thieves Guild, you can join the Daggermaster guild. Moving to this spot, regardless of what guild or specialty guild you are a member of will automatically take you to the Daggermaster guild's new location in Dwarven Stronghold. Don't leave the Daggermaster Specialty Guild area if you don't have the gold requirement either on hand or in the bank.
- Going Northwest takes you to the Bank and Armor Shop where you can get Halfling Village Armor.
- Going Southwest takes you towards the Trinket Exchange, where you can send and receive amulets and rings. At the end of the road is the Bored Guard.
- Going Southeast takes you to the Amulet Shop, where you can buy an Invisibility Ring and/or a Shining Pendant.
- Going West takes you to another Food Shop, the Courier Corp that is nothing more than an empty spot, and the Weapon Shop.
