possible theory

when camping these to flag my alt wiz, I noticed some things. I did not stay to test my theory further because I disliked the camp, But I thought someone might find this information helpful or useful.

4 pieces of the talisman,
4 diaku classes- each drops different section (I didn't record which diaku dropped which piece, sorry)

they come as warrior(wears chain), rog(wears chain), shaman(only one to cast), or SK(only one to wear plate)

what I noticed killing the rocks PHers was that It seemed the different classes would Pop different diakus.

The rock classes were
Rock Storm(Wizard)- seemed to pop the Shaman/SK
A violent sandstorm(rogue)- Probably pops rog/warr, I killed more of the whirling which worked for me
A whirling sandstorm(warrior)- popped the rog/warr diaku for me

So just remember which diaku classes you looted for your first 2 or 3 sections from and try to kill the right Rocks to get the Leftover diakus you need to pop.

Great Theory Dukelatan, using this theory, my Son (57 ranger) and myself (65 magician), were able to duo our way to the end of the quest.

You are corect, but this is extra stuff we found ...

Rock Storm --> SK Diaku (wears plate) --> drops Top Left emblem
Rock Storm --> Shammy Diaku (wears Chain & casts) --> drops Bottem left emblem
A Violent Sandstorm --> Rogue Diaku (wears chain & backstabs) --> Top right emblem
A Whirling Rock Storm --> Warrior Diaku (wears chain) --> Bottom right emblem. Note Warrior Flurries a lot!!

Hope this helps

Great info, thanks.

I'm working on this at the moment, and I just wanted to add that the Shadowknight version of the raider DOES cast, despite what was mentioned above.

He managed to fear my warrior once, for a few seconds.

Edit: I'm not totally sure that all the info above is correct. I think the drops are correct - the 3 I have have come from the classes mentioned. However I am missing the drop from the rogue, so I started killing only the Violent Sand Storms (I was the only one in the zone). After about an hour a raider appeared on track. I found him, and he was wearing chain, but when I pulled him he started casting shaman spells.

I'm certain I didn't kill any Rock Storms, as I avoid them if I can. So I'm pretty sure the Shaman popped from a Violent Sand Storm placeholder.
