stargrace January 11, 2007 No Comments

Level: 70
Starting Zone: Tenebrous Tangle (Kingdom of Sky)
Starting NPC: Jabber Longwind

– This quest is yet another of the epic Claymore line of quests. It can be obtained from Jabber Longwind once you have completed “The Riddle of Razorwing” in Ascent of the Awakened.

– After talking to Jabber, you first need to find the entrance to The Den of the Devourer at the bottom of the “Hive” on Drednever Crash Site in Bonemire. You should get an update as soon as you near the entrance.

– Next, you need to enter the Den and fight your way through it, finding ten NPC “Tomes” as you progress. These tomes are actual non-aggro Mobs with names such as “Volume I” “Volume IX” “Volume V” etc. They do seem to respawn inside the instance, and the order you kill them is not important. It is important to kill all ten tomes before you kill The Devourer, as killing him is next and last step you will need in the Den.

– Next, you need to kill the following named mobs in the Bonemire:

• The Carnovingian
• The Carrion Mandragora
• The Acrid Mother
• The Humator Harridan
• Haraghur the Deathless

– All of the above mobs are fairly easily killed with a good group, except for Haraghur, who is a 72×2 Epic mob who spawns in the catatoxic stain. He can be one grouped.

– Once you have defeated all of these mobs, return to Murrar Shar in Tenebrous Tangle to complete the quest.

The Riddle of the Razorwing

Level: 70
Starting Zone: Ascent of the Awakened (Kingdom of Sky)
Starting NPC: Triggered Item

– This quest is initiated by examining the statue of Razorwing in the center of the first floor of Ascent of the Awakened. Ascent is a zone populated entirely with Epic mobs, and the mobs you will need to clear to complete this quest are all epic x2, with a LOT of health.

– After you inspect the statue, you are required to harvest a number of ground spawn items on the first, and then the second floor. The items on the first floor are shiny wisps, easy to spot, and respawn fast. Those on the second floor are tiny replicas of dragon fangs that you have seen as decor in many KoS zones, and are extremely difficult to spot. Additionally, you will need to be standing nearly on top of them to harvest them.

– Once you have harvested all the objects that are required, return to the statue of Razorwing on the first floor to complete the quest and open up the next quest, “The Bowels of Bonemire.”

Starting Zone: Palace of the Awakened (Kingdom of Sky)
Starting NPC: Triggered Item

– This quest is the 24th in the Claymore hallmark quest series. This quest is intiated by inspecting a dragon mount bust in Palace of the Awakened, after completing “Six O’Flock High.”

– The dragon bust is on the wall upstairs from where the Skylord spawns. It asks you to find the eyes of aaryonar. If you go to the green dragon tower and climb up the wall and climb 3/4 of the ways up you will see a bust. you need to inspect the bust and take the eyes. We found it easier to climb all the way up and go to the back and inspect it by looking down in first person.

– Once you have taken the eyes you are prompted to get 2 golden feathers from aviak felines. These are the merciless pets in the Skylord room. Then you take the elevator back up and place the feathers to the left and right of the dragon bust of aaryonar. There are two statues on either side, inspect them and you can place the feathers.

– You will then need to slay Naar’Yora Philosophers. These are located in the alcolves with the bookcases. You will need to clear the PH’s until you get them to spawn. Each alcove gives you an update for one book. Death, Arcana, War and Harmony. Once you have all the kill updates you are asked to place the books on the shelves.

– After placing the books you will be prompted to locate the fangs of aarryonar in the gem beds around the palace. The gem beds are the small blue and white vase’s that are around the palace – they look like they have hands rising out of them (or like swans). They have gems in them as well.

– The gems are a clickable update so no more spawning of harvestable items. There are 20 gems.

• 3 Gems are in located in the Skylord room
• 4 Gems are in the Gym Hall (green dragon area)
• 2 Gems in the Hatchery
• 3 Gems on the floor under the green dragon area
• 4 Gems in the Lyceum of Naaryora (think blue dragon area)
• 4 Gems in the Hall to the Blue dragon.

– Once you have the gems return to the first dragon bust. Insert the fangs and the eyes and you are ready for the last step.

– Go up to area where the Enmity of Aaryonar spawns. The floor directly under where it spawns is where you need the update. The trick is once you get the update you need to slay the Enmity. You can either clear around it if its up and then rush to center all get udpate and then kill or clear get update and wait for respawn. Once Enmity is dead speak with the shard and get your awesome reward.

Six O’Flock High

Level: 70
Starting Zone: Palace of the Awakened (Kingdom of Sky)
Starting NPC: Triggered Item

– This is the 23rd quest in the Claymore hallmark quest series. It continues in Palace of Awakened. You being this quest after completing “A Star to Unlock.”

– For this quest MAKE SURE you do not have any gems that came from the dragon room numbered 1 – 6. You will need to go to your bank and destroy them before doing this step.

– Go to the green dragon room. Inspect the banner in the room. Then inspect the book on banners in the same tower. Clear the room until you have LOOTED all 6 gems. Gem number 5 only drops off the dragon so be prepared to camp this for awhile for a full group. You will then need to place the gems in the correct order in the banners. This is an important step. If you mess it up you will have to recamp your gems.

The order is 1, 2, 3, 6, 5, 4 from left to right in that exact order

– After placing the gems in the banners, inspect the book on eggs on the west side of the room. Examine the key. Go down to the floor under the dragon and clear to the NE corner room. Inspect the chest inside and get an update and egg. Examine the egg. Kill Bloodscale Councilors for the egg crusher update.

– Once you get the update inspect the egg and crush it to receive the Fang of Aaryonar.

– After getting the fang it asks you to locate the second circle of naar’yora. This up the climable wall behind Iron Fang. The circle is in the center of the room. Once you have that update it will ask you to slay the mob that guards the circle. This is Skylord Stormclaw. He is either a 15 to 25 minute spawn with a PH. We found it easiest to just clear the room a few times.

– Once Skylord is dead talk to the shard that spawns in the circle. Quest complete.

A Star to Unlock

Level: 68
Starting Zone: Palace of the Awakened (Kingdom of Sky)
Starting NPC: Triggered Item

– This is the 22nd quest in the Claymore hallmark quest series. You can begin this quest after completing “The Maiden’s Reception” and receiving a fragmented star key. As the previous few, this quest takes place in Palace of the Awakened, Barren Sky.

– You are asked to find a source of information on how to assemble the star key. The source is a is a book on the hanging bookcases behind the blue invisible wall on the 3rd floor. Kill the flying tomes to gain access (we just cleared the entire floor). Mouse over the middle bookcase should be the second shelf from the bottem you will be able to inspect.

– It asks you to reforge the key, go to the Workshop at the end of the hallway (the hall leading to the dragon). You need to kill serveral crafters, tinkers, and the taskmaster (ph for Warden) as well as the Named Warden. He is on a 25 minute timer IIRC with a place holder at the bottem of the climable wall. You will also need to harvest some gears off the tables. These respawn fairly quickly.

– Once you have the gears and the kill updates you will need to use the table in the workshop to forge the key. Once you have the reforged key inspect it. It will give you a clue of roses. Go back to the 2nd floor and inspect the two statues that you didnt need for the Maidens quest. (Second floor, near the climbable wall)

– Go back to the 3rd floor and inspect the book of Arryonar with an A. This will begin a series of tasks.

– First task is to collect crystals from the baths. The baths are the long pools in the wings of the first floor and the ones in the hallways of the dragon towers. The crystals are harvestable. The only issue with crystals is there a time sink if everyone in your group needs as they do not respawn right away. Once you harvest one it spawns in a different area in the palace. Be prepared to spend time on this step. We found it easier to just run from bath to bath kill all the mobs in between.

– Once you have all of your crystals you will need to kill Iron Fang. Iron Fang is on the 4th floor once you come up the wall – he is the snake that spawns in the center caged room. You will need to clear the ghosts in the right and left rooms, 25 minutes later either Iron Fang on PH will spawn.

– Once Iron Fang is dead you will need to kill some Defenders of Naaryora. These are on the very top floor where the Enimty spawns. The Defenders can be found in the alcoves.

– After that update is complete it will ask you to place the 4 crystals. You will need to head to the green dragon tower. In there is a Deliberation chamber (just look for another circle on the floor). Walk into the circle and get your update. It then asks you to kill a powerful advisor. He is the named bird at the bottom of the climable wall.

– Once you kill the Advisor speak to the First Shard of Aaryonar that spawns in the circle. Your quest is now complete
