If you are KoS, it's impossible to get to Yelinak by yourself, because there is a raid mob in the way that will banish you back to the zoneline when you try to walk by him. FYI.

I stumbled across the four mobs in a hidden room which can only be entered through a hidden pit trap in the floor. Exit from the room is via a one-way passage through a wall.
[Fri May 01 10:04:44 2009] You say, 'Hail, Savtek'
[Fri May 01 10:04:44 2009] Savtek says 'Egad, you've found my secret little hole in the world! Hmm, you don't look like a ruffian, and I can tell by your. . . ahem, stature, that you're not a giant. Just make sure you don't cause any trouble, because I wouldn't want to send my golems, [Drilsh and Drolsh] after you for disturbing a shrine member.'
[Fri May 01 10:05:13 2009] You say, 'who is Drilsh and Drolsh ?'
[Fri May 01 10:05:14 2009] Savtek says 'Well, yes, the two golems right there. You'll notice they actually have names, unlike all the boring collective-esque golems running around 'protecting' the shrine. If I had it my way, I'd make sure they all had goofy names, just so we could remember who is who. I take pride in the fact that I was able to reprogram these two to have somewhat more of a personality, though they still [don't speak] much.'
[Fri May 01 10:05:43 2009] You say, 'why don't they speak ?'
[Fri May 01 10:05:43 2009] Savtek says 'Not yet, but I'm working on that! When I finally do get finished with them, they'll be able to recite poetry like none other; they'll have the ability to praise and be praised, hold a meaningful and heartfelt conversation, or simply just offer you suggestions on what it is you should eat for the day. I'm really quite proud of what I've done so far, and when I'm finished, they'll be the most intriguing golems ever created!'
I could not get any further response from Savtek, despite numerous attempts to regurgitate his last comments.
[Fri May 01 10:06:43 2009] You say, 'Hail, Keshkov'
[Fri May 01 10:06:43 2009] Kehkov says, 'This is no time for talk, this is time for strategy!'

Didnt kill any so have no links of the loot, but all 3 conned white at 70, and went through the same quest texts as though they were the Quest NPCs. Will send in some screenies soon.
Tilanar Fe`Dhar is the scavenger hunt NPC in Skyshrine. His loc is approx. +216, +392. (purple globe in center of maze transports near his area) I was able to get the quest with amiable CoV faction even though I'm KoS to Yelinak. Hail him and follow dialogue to receive: Scaled Collection Bag and A Scaled Clue Book. There are 10 clues in the book, 1 per item to collect in the bag. I haven't started the searching yet but will try to update any info I get. I've had trouble posting today. Here are clues in the book. 1-Not a return, but a singular instance. 2-The call of the depths could lead you to these. 3-Feeling Lucky? 4-A verminous tribute to the bones. 5-Visit their underground home for a closer look at this. 6-Both home and currency for these folk. 7-One of four from the twice horned. 8-A storied part of the snow. 9-A sign of a big head. 10-Primitive experiments in art receive a cold reception. Good luck all!

How do you get TO the maze to get to him? I cannot find an entrance from CS or WL entrances. Directions or locs or even landmarks npcs would be of great help. Thanks!
this sucks i cant find the entrance to the maze either, i got the quest the other day and then filled the bag but i dont remember how to get back to the quest giver. i can get tthrough the maze if i could ever get back to it.
I just got through the maze today 3/30/05. I found the B portal on the lower level took me to around "I" on the upper level. This "I" portal is very picky. There is a flashing diamond shape on the floor. Just keeping walking around and it will port you to the "I" on the lower level. I don't know exactly where I was when it ported me, but it does work. Once you find and port through the "I" portal, then go north to the "C" portal, west to the "D" portal which is the end of the maze.
It is confusing and frustrating, but it's a great feeling when you get through this #$%^&* maze! Good Luck!
Thanks for the info. I just got throught the maze finally. Its like you said 'B portal on the lower level took me to around "I" ' B takes you to I so all you have to do is step off the port square and back on and you get ported to the right spot.
Whisperwing was not up when i went to see him... A merchant was there tho, so i was able to unload at least.. But how can i make him spawn so i can net the key?
The maze was behaving badly. "B" zoned me to the "I" teleport, but the "I" teleport was not working. I was not able to traverse the maze and had to port out.
I just zoned into Skyshrine and all the human allies are gone. Each one was repalced with a chromodrac\farie dragon looking mob. They all still say the same thing.
Is there any way, anyhow to be able to enter Skyshrine without being KOS, as far as faction is, what can i kill at lv 30 to raise my skyshrine faction?? I love dragons/wyverns/gargoyles and I would LOVE to be able to hang out there...

Kill frost giants in GD or go to Kael Drakkal and just ask groups fighting there if you can wack there mobs for faction hits but be carfull if you get agro there your dead...:)
Found this mob in the courtyard past Ziglark (the one with the stairs up in it. Only dropped coin. Hmm... perhaps he was a quest NPC? Dark Blue to 48, Green to 64. Hit really hard compared to other mobs in the area.
Has anyone gotten a Square Helm since the revamp of the zone? I have killed many mobs repeatedly with no success. I am just wondering if anyone has gotten one since revamp and what mob it dropped off of.
The mob that used to drop it Jaelk, is no longer in the zone.
Would be nice to see a the revamp done here on thsi site.

Sentry Armor still only drops from the sentries. After killing the and a bunch of other mobs in the old key room, it seems that sentry armor only drops from the sentries( I was told earlier that they droped from all mobs) and that the drop rate is about 1 an hour if you are killing the entrence sentries.
Big changes in Skyshrine since the little issue with "the Chromatic" and the escalation of the war with the giants. I've explored as far as the maze entrance so far, and almost all old mobs are gone from this section - about 9 old timers remain. Enemies who would hunt the Claws of Veeshan beware: all of those remaining are now higher levels than listed by Illia here; I presume that they're toughening up for these trying times they face. I'm surveying the place and submitting a whole slew of updates, so expect them to trickle in.
The gateway quest for faction now is through Torm Wenrar, a barbarian friend of the dragon-kin who is upstairs not far from the Wakening Land zone. At amiable he was the only being in the zone who would speak freely to me. I collected Mercenary Brooches from the Kromzek sellswords of various races in Wakening Lands, and turned them in three at a time to him. Each time he rewarded me with a no drop 5 does Potion of Draconic Rage, a nice little drink that gives your weapon a 65 direct damage fire proc for 10 minutes or so. Each time my faction also went up, and I'm now kindly considered by the Claws of Veeshan. A few more quests have now opened up for me, but most quest givers are still tight-lipped, so I'll be turning in Brooches and raiding Kael Drakkel until they're more confident of my trustworthiness.
As an aside, I've found nobody yet that will accept the Mercenary Assignments that drops with the Brooches. I'll keep looking, and post and further information I find.
Does anyone know which npc to give the mercenary assignments to now that the zone has changed? I found the guy to give the brooches to, but he won't take the assignments. It isn't Lt. Milven either.
I recieved a potion of draconic rage for 3 brooches. 5 charges of draconic rage. Anyone know what this does? I used one charge on myself and saw no stat or resist change. Didn't have time to try in combat.

FYI -- All the quest NPCs in Skyshrine have been moved!
After a little searching I found where they have been moved to:
As you progress up through the tower, go through the maze as usual, and as soon as you exit the maze you are placed at the beginning of the long winding hallway that goes all the way around the periphery of the tower and up for several levels. Take the first door on your left once you are in this hallway. This will open up to a library-like room which contains all the quest NPCs for each class.
Also note, the NPC for customizing your SS quest helm was moved as well, he is in the last room you go through prior to entering the old NPC room near the top of the tower.
Sentry Kale is now a Drake (just talk to him and he will tell ya all about it), and is in what used to be the first see invis mobs, area just past the fountain.
Side note: there are now only 4 wurms that see invis all the way to the new SS armor quest area. well, that were up at the time I looked anyhow.
I saw a couple of crusaders and were able to speak to a few of them. The quest dialog was broken from what I saw on two fo them- sent in a petition and who knows what will happen. Would like to find out more what is in store.
It seems that in today's (11/19) patch, someone is going to talk to Yelinak about something called "the prismatic." With a message in a patch back in September describing Kerafyrm's (Sleeper) awakening, only this time he is going to meet someone, plus the fact that Kerafyrm seems to be a multicolored dragon, AND there's a dragon in the Plane of Valor named Aerin'dar who looks exactly like Kerafyrm (check it out), any noticeable changes to this zone?
Uh, yeah...so i was running to Kael today, and zoned into SS. Before I could realize what happened, my 60 rogue dropped dead with about 10 mobs on me. Looks like verant really @#%^ed with this zone. New mobs EVERYWHERE. For ever mob that was there, they added 3 more. Guardians are nowhere to be found, and I was told that guardian armor now drops from guards. Very few old mobs are still around. Most were replaced by new mobs: drakes, statues, gargoyles, wyverns, and humans (YES humans). The poolroom now has about 20 mobs in it, and 3 are right at the zoneing from CS, so be careful. You'll need to be invis now when you zone in. The entrance to SS from WL is now guarded by 4 mobs instead of 2 as well. Gonna go in there and hunt tomorrow to see if there's any new drops.
Good luck getting guardian now. Every room has like 20 mobs in it now. *sigh* stupid verant.

Posted:Jul 24 2002 at 3:16 AM, Rating: Unrated, (Expand Post) WHY ISN'T YELINAK LISTED ON THE MOB SELECTION????????????? HES THE MAIN DUDE IN SS
What I wanted to say, definatley kill storm giants for factions. After several hundred frost giants, I was dubious. After 23 storm giants, I was apprehensive.
Just a wee note on faction. This is a guide not fact so dont quote me please. Max faction is 3500 Scowl to glare 2000 glare to app 2500 app to dub 2800 dub to ind 3000 ind to kindly 3175 kindly to warmly 3350 warmly to ally 3500 OK I made all these up but it is sort of what you can expect and it is why you took so long to get off Scowl then everything gets better so much faster once you do.This is not to say storm giants do not give more faction per kill just that it gets much faster as you get liked more 8)
does any one have an idea who drops this earing looks great cant find anyone selling one so i may just have to go farm one for my self thanks for any help
Be safe and allways travel with a song in your heart
I got 2 so far camping Lararith/Jaelk area. The wurms did not drop it, but one of the close by Fe'Dhars did (they're wyverns). I can solo the camp, but without malo I can hardly land a spell worth a damn :( Mobs in Skyshrine have abnormally high resists, and even with malo mobs resist first slow attempt 1/3 of the time. I've gotten up to 5 resists once after malo, of course I died :)
I got a pair off a Fe'Dhar (wyvern), same as focused ethereal earring. All wyverns have the same loot table, and that loot table is enormous, but there is one catch - the good drops range from rare to super rare. Took me 3 days of nonstop campage to obtain them, but my monk is VERY happy with the greaves and the earring :)
I have recently proven myself trustworthy enough to walk among the hallowed halls of the Skyshrine. One day, as I was looking with awe at the tapestries on the walls and not paying attention to where i was going, I ended up in a most peculiar place. It was a cavernous maze, filled with the cubes the dragons seem fond and wary of, abundant twists and turns, and several teleporters. I have since visited it many times, and each time have managed to exit it, but I was wondering if anyone knew what lay hidden within? Perhaps dragons of even greater wisdom and power then the ones in the more accesible areas? Or, dare I say it, the great ice dragon Yelinak himself? Please, post a reply here or, if you should happen to be on the Luclin server, send a tell to Sars. I would be most greatful for any help you could offer.

You have tougher mobs like the Laochs I believe (wyverns), but the maze also leads to the quest room for velious armour (raw armour pieces being dropped in Halls of Testing in Temple of Veeshan).
I love this place and fight here whenever possible. If you came here for just loot think again. The armor has VERY low drop rate but it is worth the wait. Since i enjoy fighting here it isnt a waste of my time to spend all of it there. If you want armor go to the pool room. If you have fought in SS before then you know where i am talking about. And for all you many ppl who want to know if you need a key to enter SS the answer is no. You need a key to get through it to CS. I have found that it is completely random on armor drops and you get about 1 drop in 30 kills. But for my current lvl of 41 the armors stats on incredibly hard to beat and if you dont have SoL then the graphics on the armor are unbeatable until uber quest armor and planes. (Even then I still prefer some pieces!) The sentries and gaurdians are very hard for their lvl but like i said before the drops are fabulous. Sentry is for me, a rogue, and SK's love the gaurdian. I just cant wait to kill the wyverns!
