stargrace January 8, 2007 0Comment

Level 27

– Starts from Dragoon K’Naae in the East of Nektulos Forest (-1373,-1336).

– The first order of business from the Dragoon is to acquire 60 Owlbear Meats in Nektulos. These drop on the Ash Owlbears in the zone. After doing this return to K’Naae. You can find the owl bears moved now, to the south eastern corner of the zone, close to the commonlands entrance.

– He will then ask you to collect 60 Undead Skin Scraps. You can obtain these from the undead and patchwork men near the entrance to Nektropos Castle. After acquiring all 60 return to Dragoon K’Naae. You used to be able to use the skeletons that were along the banks of the river beside the commonlands entrance, but they no longer give the updates now.

– He will then give you a flask of water which you must fill at Behemoth Pond (-226,-237) in Nektulos Forest and return to him. The return is timed, you have 9 minutes to run it.

– You will then be asked to kill Captain T’Sanne at the Gul’Thex Citadel (+666,-719) to recover a weapon from him. Captain T’Sanne is a triggered spawn from a short ring event. If you enter the citadel and you see some skeletons inside at the bottom level, kill them. After the skeletons are cleared a time or two Captain T’Sanne will spawn. He’s a level 29-30 ^^ Group mob who comes with two guards. After doing this return to Dragoon K’Naee. If the ring event isn’t up (you walk in and see no groups of skeletons along the bottom floor) just be patient and wait, someone must have cleared it before you. The event is on a two hour timer.

When you get near Dragoon K’Naae you will be ambushed by three Ebon Mask Assassins. Kill them and speak to Dragoon K’Naee to complete the quest.

The Return of the Light (Greater Lightstone)

stargrace January 8, 2007 0Comment

Level 20

Starts from examining “Burned Out Lightstone” which is a body drop from the Lightbringer Wisp in the Commonlands. The wisp hangs out around the druid ring at (684,-96). Your level does not matter since it’s a body drop.

– The first thing you need to do is find someone who needs this lightstone. The person who needs it is Cannix Silverflame in the Commonlands (-310,-362).

– The first thing Cannix will ask of you is to touch the Mourned and the Forgotten with the lightstone. After completing this step return to Cannix.

• The Forgotten (+172,+260)
• The Mourned (-590,-632)

– Receive Reward: Faintly Lit Lightstone

– Cannix will then ask you to kill Rama’nai in the Commonlands. Rama’nai is a named lion at the Ring of Nature, near where the Lightbringer Wisp spawned. To spawn him kill the place holder, it should be a roaming or wandering lioness. After killing Rama’nai return to Cannix.

– Receive Reward: Dimly Lit Lightstone

Your next task is to kill two Orc Captains in the Commonlands. After killing the orcs return to Cannix.

• Captain Gaer (or his placeholder Reag) spawns about loc (-855,+670)
• Captain Ogof (or his placeholder Fogo) spawns about loc (-475,+678)

– Receive Reward: Softly Lit Lightstone

– The next step is to kill the High Priest of Val’Marr in the Commonlands. He is found at the Ruins of Val’Marr (+448,+574). The old method of spawning him required you to kill the groups of skeletons surrounding bone piles, however, this has been changed. You now need to clear the top of the towers around the ruins. Any tower can spawn the priest, so it’s best to keep them all clear. Return to Cannix afterwards.

– Receive Reward: Glimmering Lightstone

– He will then send you to kill General Drull. He can be found in Bloodskull Valley. The access for BSV has been removed, and to enter you no longer need to do the lengthly access quest. You can hail the npc located behind the rock to the right hand side of the door, and they will let you in. The encounter is also no longer epic, but is heroic. When you enter you will be rushed by various waves of orcs, just keep squishing them all until Drull spawns. Once he’s dead and you’ve gotten your update you can evac and leave the rest of the orcs up if you’d like.

– After completing this task return to Cannix and he will attack you, not wanting to give up the reward. Characters from Qeynos will not have to kill Cannix at the end of the quest. Instead a group of bandits will kill him. You must then kill the bandits to receive your reward.

Receive Reward: Greater Lightstone
Receive Reward: 30,000 Status Points

War and Wardrobe (Robe of the Oracle)

stargrace January 8, 2007 0Comment

Level 35

– This quest starts from a brooch dropped by the aquagoblin oracle in Butcherblock, just swim out to the nearest island from the docks, he stands on a raised platform on the island.

– Inspecting the brooch starts the quest and tells you to find a high elf that might know something about it. Glavarius Marud (+293,+94) can be found in a house in Kelethin.

– Next you need to find the Circle of the Unseen Hand for more information. You need to talk to Fippy Darkpaw the 4th in Crows Resting Place in the Down Below. He will refuse to tell you anything at first, but if you pick up a card from a table in the other room, slip Fippy the card and he will tell you about Villanous the Small ( note, the named in the instance don’t give you any aa )

– Next you need to go to a castle in the northern part of Nektulos. This is Nek castle, and in the basement you will find an Empty Crate Note (-41,-56). Inspecting the note reveals that the contents of the crate were stolen by the Ebon Mask in the Foreign Quarter of Neriak.

– Go to Fallen Gate and you will find Zannas K’Val’s Chest (+167,-81). Harvest to get Tessa’s Contingency Plan. Inspect for update. You may notice some new mobs up, traps as you examin these pieces.

– Now you need to find an emergency fallback point in Faydwer. This is a stone of the chessboard in Butcherblock (-788,-16). Harvesting this will give you Tessa’s Hidden Notes for Zannas and will also trigger a trap spawning 4 triggered guardians. Read the note, you don’t have to kill the guardians.

– You now need to find one of Tessa’s gems. She used the aquagoblins to deliver them. Kill aquagoblins until you get a gem. Inspect the gem for update.

– Go to Crushbone. Outside the keep there are three caves. Enter the one on the right; all the way back there is a punished magi apprentice (-1619,-30). He will send you inside the keep to get cleric hate helms. A good room for these is the magi room on the second floor, almost everything in there is a place holder. Go back to the magi apprentice after getting the helms and he will tell you where to find the Oracle N’Mare.

– Back into the keep and go to the D’Vinnian throne room (-59,-41). A level 25-35 instance. Oracle N’Mare is located on the east side behind two locked doors (+781,+220). Kill the sentries in each area for the keys. There is a movable wall behind the second door. Oracle N’Mare is in the Gladiator training hall (-84,-178).
