Bludwyng's Notes  

Bludwyng's Sandbox
These are notes for myself, to myself.

1.4 - Legacy of the Fallen

  • Girdoom in Miridian and Templar Zim in Sanctum sell the new PvP Rift Ascended Power.
  • New event: Planar Menace
  • What we call The Saga of the Aelfwar, Trion calls Life Saga. I would rather call the Water Saga the Saga of the Abyssal to stay consistent with the other 2 Cult Sagas.
  • New Water Saga Cult Saga Story - Starts in AP (normal or Expert). Talk to NPC after AP zone completion. If you have ever completed AP before you are already flagged. Not sure if you can start this quest series before level 50 but all the quests are 50 and at least two require Expert instances (RotF and RD).
    • Defiant - Faceless Man in AP
    • Guardians - Cardinal Visc in Sanctum

The Saga of the Abyssal - 30-quest series. Completion awards the Crocnard mount (60% or equal to your fastest mount)

    2. Insanity Intelligence - talk to Luminary Yentia in The Chancel of Labors
    3. The Solace Cabal - Group (5): Use the spyglass to observe Veras
      • from this point on you are cursed with Abyssal Madness. From time to time you will be frozen while Veras appears and says something non-sensical
    4. Moonshade Mop-up - Investigate the abandoned Abyssal ritual and assist Scotty
      • Thanks to the Madness you will see Abyssal enemies when you are actually killing Scotty and his Runeguard companions!
  • Act II: Undercover Ascended
    1. Atonement - Pray at the Markers of Thontic off the coast of Freemarch, speak to the Messenger of Thontic, then speak to the Vision of Veras (7545, 5209)
    2. Powers of the Deep - Complete the two sub-quests
    3. A Mad Tea Party - The Value of Art? (talk to Veras) How Deep will you go? (talk to the Stinger of Akylios) Which dragon would you like to be stuffed full of? (talk to Rune King Molinar) (grants Prefix title, Tidelord)
      • if this bugs on you, log out and back in ON the island, then just talk to the indicated persons and choose the most insane choice offered.
  • Act III: Redemption
    1. A Slim Chance - Speak with Rurik in the Chancel of Labors (in the west stacks of the Scriptorium

    2. The Wreck of the Novia - Locate the Construct Heart Plating (Crocodarian), Dragonbone Scroll Case (Bonesnapper), Asphodel's Grave Flower (Laethana), and the Promise not to Charm (Lord Oseptos) (off the east coast of Moonshade Highlands, Laethana and Lord Oseptos are Elite but they are soloable)
    3. Hiding Among Dragonslayers - Seek out Bahram of the Dragonslayer Covenant in Wyrmbane Spire
    4. Last of the Zardonis - Earn Decorated status, then talk to Bahram and travel to Gritsquall Haven to find Atticus Zardonis
    5. Out of the Fire - Group (2): Follow Atticus to the Mask of the Deep and retrieve it
      • Says it is Group (2) but all the mobs are normal and this is easily soloable. At each Air Vent 1-3 mobs will spawn when you click it. 3 vents and then the chest.
    6. A Token of the Fae - Group (5): Seek out Asphodel's grave in the Expert Realm of the Fae
      • talk to Chelius in the cage next to Trickster Maelow.
    7. Enchanted Wood - Group (5): Gather the Bough of Life
      • Chelius will run you back 2 glades to a tree. Click on it to get the bough. Take it to Rurik at Chancel.
    8. Heir of Nyx - Seek out the heir of Nyx in Fortune's Shore
    9. Wishes of a Dominata - Steal an Ethian Sundial, a bottle of Widow Wail's Wine, and a Golden Brazier, place the goods on the Khaliti Goods table, and make sure Kaseem is recognized as a capable leader

    14. The Hidden Master - Signal the Faceless Man at Reclaimer's Hold with a /nod, then meet him in Faering Wood
      The Faceless Man
      The Faceless Man
    15. Rewriting History - Record the 4 entries
      • You MUST immediately click Accept on this quest. If you take the time to read the quest first he will turn and leave and you will be trapped between quests!!!
      • At the bottom of Titan's Well is a Data Recorder. Click on it to summon a vision of Tidelord Lyrr who will tell you some history of the Abyssal and ask a question. Get the answer wrong and fight him! Do this four times. The Data Recorder has a brief cooldown after each use.
        1. To Serve Dragons: Q: Which Abyssal Leader pledged to serve two masters? A: Tidelord Brenin
        2. The Abyssal Plane: In Iron Pine Peaks Commander Calthyx had an innovative means to acquire the tidestone needed. What was it? A: He bargained the Abyssal's magical knowledge to the Storm Legion in exchange for Tidestone.
        3. Meridian: Who betrayed the Abyssal and gave Meridian to the Defiants? A: The Faceless Man.
        4. The Goals of the Blood Storm: Which domains were under Akylios' purview? A: Madness, magic and nightmares.
    16. Fly on the Wall - Capture Veras' spirit
      • As soon as you try to use the Sanctified Bottle on Veras, 4 Insane Hermits will appear. They are easy to kill but they keep coming in waves, preventing you from completing the casting of the bottle. You need two players, one to engage the Hermits and one to capture Veras. Killing Veras or chasing him beyond his tether distance will reset the encounter.
    17. A Conclave of Sages - Complete sub-quests for Null Aximander in Droughtlands at Brigand's Bluff and Luminary Yentia in Iron Pine Peak at the Chancel of Labors
      • The Frequency of the Forbidden - Use the Sanctified Crystal on the corpses of 100 Abyssal cult members of at least green difficulty.
        • Any Abyssal cultists (such as the Deadwaters near Abyssal Precipice) will count. You need to remember to use the Crystal on the corpse after slaying! Do this before looting as looted cultists will vanish very fast and you may miss some updates.
      • The Core of Madness - Retrieve the Ice Core from Icewatch Outpost west of Exile's Den and return it to Null in under 8 minutes without using Soul Recall or a Porticulum, and without dying
        • Not as bad as it sounds, except that you must have at least a 90% mount to do this. When you grab the Core you will be teleported to the Lake of Solace, near the "L", signicantly reducing the run back. Swim north directly to Freemarch near the town, pop your mount and run like hell across Freemarch to the bridge, through Droughtlands to Brigand's Bluff. There is a buff on you labeled Ice Core with the time remaining.
    18. The Influence of Lyrr - Group (5): Disrupt the Cloaking Device, kill the Defiant Technicians, use the Periapt of Water's Bane on the Faceless Man, and kill the Spirit of Lyrr
      • Faceless Man must be below 15% before you can use the Periapt, and this spawns the Spirt of Lyrr. He hits like a freight train off the bat, and dozens of Deep Ones and Seacaps come to help him, but Cyril Kalmar and Borrin Gamult also appear to help you. They will round up many of the adds while you handle Lyrr.
    19. The Madness of Mystics - Learn Joseph's Secret
      • Congratulations on your shiny new Crocnard and your new title, Lord of Madness!
