Find Sergeant Johson Popoah and hail him twice. Do not respond or click the link until after the second hail. If you respond or click the link prior to the second hail, camp or zone to clear quest progress and start over.

You say, 'Hail, Sergeant Johson Popoah'

Sergeant Johson Popoah says 'State your business or leave our [compound].'

Do not respond yet.

You say, 'Hail, Sergeant Johson Popoah'

Sergeant Johson Popoah says 'Leave now before there is bloodshed.'

Now you may respond.

You say, 'What compound?'

Sergeant Johson Popoah says 'This is the primary command center for Che Virtuson. We fall under the leadership and guidance of Captain Ryglot. I must now ask you to leave.'

Immediately go see Paralin Notion and hail him. He is with Che Virtuson in the tents near zone-in.

You say, 'Hail, Paralin Notion'

Paralin Notion says 'You're either [brave], or you're [stupid].'

You say, 'I am brave.'

He may not respond. If he doesn't, simply type the following response.

Paralin Notion says 'That you are. Perhaps you'd be interested in helping our [company].'

You say, 'I will help your company.'

Paralin Notion says 'We're a part of the Battalion of Marr. We're soldiers from Che Virtuson. We were dispatched to this part of the Plane of Valor to eliminate an age old target. Unfortunately, due to some recent events our mission has been placed on hold and our [squad] has been asked to remain behind.'

You say, 'What squad?'

Paralin Notion says 'We are a part of Ducee Tapferson. Our squad is known for our bravery. We were successful in capturing this [razorfiend] earlier today. You've shown some bravery as well my friend and that is the reason I request your [assistance].'

You say, 'What about that razorfiend?'

Paralin Notion says 'These vile beasts live in the caves west of here.'

You say, 'I will provide you with assistance.'

Paralin Notion says 'Many of us here are anxious to leave. Many wish to regroup with the rest of our company. Others wish to go back to the Halls to complete the [Trials].'

You say, 'What Trials?'

Paralin Notion says 'The Trials are overseen by the Heroes of Marr. It's these Trials that allow us to rise in rank. Only those who have passed the trials are able to enter the Temple of Marr. Now if you wish to aid us I must ask you to do a few [things].'

You say, 'What things?'

Paralin Notion says 'You must find the Master Sergeant and tell him that you are here to aid the cause.'

At this point IMMEDIATELY proceed to Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln in the bridgehouse. He is on the far side near the wastes. Do not hail him or anyone in between, just walk up to him and immediately say "I am here to aid the cause."

You say, 'I am here to aid the cause.'

Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln looks you over and says in a deep voice 'What could you possibly do to aid our cause. Perhaps you think you can slay [Aerin`Dar] himself?' The Master Sergeant begins to laugh uncontrollably. 'I suggest you go back to whoever filled your head with this nonsense and stop wasting my time.'

You say, 'What is Aerin'dar?'

Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln says 'I don't have time to explain the glass dragon to you. Leave before I get angry.'

Immediately go back to Paralin Notion.

You say, 'Hail, Paralin Notion'

Paralin Notion says 'I'm sorry the Master Sergeant was unable to help you. Perhaps you should [prove] yourself before you attempt to jump 'into the fire' so to speak.'

You say, 'How shall I prove myself?'

Paralin Notion says 'We've been running into a lot of problems lately with the razorfiends and the planarian larvae. Many soldiers have been getting sick because of the infestations that they cause. Capture the hearts of a razorfiend, a crystalline spider and a planarian larvae and bring them back to me. Our squad had enough problems capturing this small razorfiend here. This will become your first so called 'Trial' ______. It should be enough to prove your worth.'

Once you have collected the three hearts and turned them in...

Paralin Notion looks at you with surprise. 'Very good my friend. You've definitely proven yourself. Find the Master Sergeant. He should be able to help you this time.'
You gain experience!!

Immediately return to Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln.

You say, 'Hail, Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln'

Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln says 'I heard what you did for Paralin Notion. That's quite a noble feat indeed. Perhaps we can use your help. However, you'll need to talk to the Captain first. After all, I can't have you walking in the [glass lair] without permission.'

You say, 'What glass lair?'

Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln says 'It's the prison that [Aerin`Dar] has been encased in for many generations.'

You say, 'What about Aerin'dar?'

Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln says 'Aerin`Dar is the crystalline dragon who once roamed the Plane of Valor. During a severe rainstorm it was struck down to the very core of its being. The mighty Aerin`Dar fell from the sky and landed in what is now known as the Glassy Wasteland. Planarian larvae began to infest its body eventually turning its pure heart to evil. Our [company] was dispatched to this region of Valor to eliminate the threat.'

You say, 'What company?'

Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln says 'My squad of men are a part of Che Virtuson. However, we specifically are a part of Ducee Buled. We fall under the command of Captain Ryglot. Our [mission], for the time being, is simple. But we've run into some problems lately.'

You say, 'What mission?'

Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln says 'Not too fast ______. You'll have to speak to the Captain about that. I'm not at liberty to divulge that information at this time. That information is classified. I can tell you, but then I'd have to kill you.' Aaramis laughs. 'Go to Captain Ryglot and he'll be able to fill you in with all the details.'

Immediately go to Captain Ryglot Cupperhide. Don't speak to anyone else on the way.

You say, 'Hail, Captain Ryglot Cupperhide'

Captain Ryglot Cupperhide says 'I am very [busy] at the moment. Perhaps you should come back at another time ______.'

You say, 'Why are you busy'

Captain Ryglot Cupperhide says 'I can't go into any great detail, but the Crystalline Globe was taken from our command structure. It's believed to have been separated into three pieces. Unfortunately, we're having a lot of trouble relocating it. Perhaps you'd like to [help].'

You say, 'I will help'

Captain Ryglot Cupperhide says 'That's good to hear ______. I wish we had more soldiers like yourself willing to help. I'm going to need you to locate the missing pieces of the globe and bring them back to me. After you've acquired the pieces perhaps you'd be able to rally enough people to lend us a hand with another [mission] objective we've been unable to fulfill do to our diminished numbers.'

You say, 'What mission?'

Captain Ryglot Cupperhide says 'Well, I can't go into any details as to our main purpose is, but one of our missions was to exterminate the crystalline dragon. However, due to our company being split we are unable to go forward with this part of the operation. It has been placed on hold, pending the outcome of the [war].'

You say, 'What war?'

Captain Ryglot Cupperhide says 'Unfortunately, that is one of the things that I'm unable to speak of at this time. However, if you are [willing] to help rally some people together I may be able to release some more information to you.'

You say, 'I'm willing'

Captain Ryglot Cupperhide says 'Well, that's good to hear. Bring me back what I've requested and we'll talk then.'

One piece of the crystalline globe drops off of the Luminii Crawler, one drops off frogs near the bridgehouse, and one drops off of the skellies. Once the Captain recieves the three pieces of the globe, he gives you back the completed globe, which is the key to Aerin'Dar's lair:

Captain Ryglot Cupperhide looks up at you in surprise. 'I can't believe you brought the missing pieces back to me so quickly. I have a team of men who have been looking for these pieces for weeks now. That's quite a feat. Unfortunately, I will be unable to make use of the Crystalline Globe at this time. A message has been dispatched to my platoon asking us to return to the Halls of Honor. It looks as if we'll be joining up with the rest of our company fairly soon. Keep the globe. If you're able to rally enough people together to take on Aerin`Dar then perhaps you'll be able accomplish an objective that our platoon was unable to do. I must go now. Good luck to you ______.'

You gain experience!!



Aerin`Dar hits for ~1,400, is slowable, and has a proc on a -150 MR check, that does 3k dd, and 45% melee slow (SK tank advised). He also has nine mobs in his room that add as you fight him, and are unmezzable. He also has a fear AE with a strong DOT... it does 700 as a DD when hit, then 500/tick until you break the Fear. During the fight, numerous untargetable Mindless Minions will assist (becoming targetable), and finally a named minion, Rahlgon, will assist and become targetable as well.

When he dies, a planar projection spawns. Hail the projection to receive a temporary character flag (it will not give you the yellow "You have received a character flag!" text). You must then proceed directly through the trap door and down the tunnel and actually click on the halls of honor zone in at the end of the canyon. You will receive your permanent flag upon zoning in. If you have not gotten the temporary flag by hailing the astral projection, it will tell you you lack the will to enter the Halls of Honor when clicking on the zone in.

Very buggy quest.

Took me 2 hours to pharm all the drops, with a full group. Could be solo'd for sure at 65 but would take longer, naturally.

The dialogue part is very buggy! Do not do any turn-ins unless you get exactly the right responses. I even broke the quest when I evac'd to save me time running from castle to the tents. I followed the walkthru on eqprogression.com religiously and succeeded. But it is nervewracking when the responses aren't exactly right, or the NPC just nods instead of speaking, and the temptation is there to do the turn-ins anyway hoping to hustle him along. This will NOT work and you may have to reacquire the quest pieces and surely you don't want to have to do that!

I have read the walk troughs on several sites, but I cannot get past the below dialog with Paralin Notion. I cannot get him to respond to "brave" or "I am brave" and get the response 'That you are. Perhaps you'd be interested in helping our [company].'

Paralin Notion says 'You're either [brave], or you're [stupid].'

You say, 'I am brave.'

He may not respond. If he doesn't, simply type the following response.

Paralin Notion says 'That you are. Perhaps you'd be interested in helping our [company].'

I have tried it clicking "brave" and manually typing "I am brave." I have logged off and re-logged back on to reset the encounter, and I have tried it with and without clicking "brave." I have tried it just typing "brave" and/or "I am brave." Anyone have any idea's?

Just did this quest tonight and received the Crystalline Globe. Clicked on the lever outside Aerdin'Dar's lair with the globe in my inventory. Received red text "Crystalline Globe has been added to your key ring." Clicked lever again and the door opened. Went inside and clicked on the globe and ported into the lair with Aerdin'Dar.

At no time did I need to have the globe on my cursor. Did /key and Crystalline Globe shows on my key ring.

I received character flag in yellow after hailing the planar projection. I also ran to the end of the tunnel and found I was unable to get out at the end. I oirted out using a fellowship fire and have not yet ran to see if I can get in to HoH.

From what I remember, there was a certain place you had to click at there at the end to be ported out.

Finally got my key for this and got stuck right in the area that has the blue crystal ball with the dragon inside it. Couldn't click it to get over to the lair. Couldn't find out what I was supposed to do to actually get into his lair.

You should be able to click on the crystal ball with the dragon in it to port down. All the key does is let you into the area that let's you click down.

I remember this, it's much like the Plane of Water entrance in Plane of Tranquility. You have to find that sweet spot on where to click it.

Did the whole Quest and got the success message:

Quote:
Captain Ryglot Cupperhide looks up at you in surprise. 'I can't believe you brought the missing pieces back to me so quickly. I have a team of men who have been looking for these pieces for weeks now. That's quite a feat. Unfortunately, I will be unable to make use of the Crystalline Globe at this time. A message has been dispatched to my platoon asking us to return to the Halls of Honor. It looks as if we'll be joining up with the rest of our company fairly soon. Keep the globe. If you're able to rally enough people together to take on Aerin`Dar then perhaps you'll be able accomplish an objective that our platoon was unable to do. I must go now. Good luck to you __________.


I got back the Crystalline Globe. For what is that stupid thing good for? Never thought that THIS IS THE OMINOUS KEY!

Tried then to go into the Lair and always got the response: Its locked and you are not holding the key.
Killed the four guardians and tried to give the eyes to Guardian Reloios but that didn't helped either, he didnt took it.
Toon tried the Quest with the four eyes, but didnt worked either.
Using the handle in front of the dragons lair gives also: Its locked and you are not holding the key.
Have done the Time-Raid and have Time-Access. Wanted to do the fabled dragon but no chance to go into that damn lair....

So I tried to lockpick it with picklocks on a Bard but that cannot be lockpicked.
Went back to Plane of Tranquility: Elder Fuirstel and Hailed him: Got a character flag!
Tried again: Its locked and you are not holding the key!
So I got hold on an old friend who had done the whole PoP-Progression up to Time including all flags for time: the same - Its locked and you are not holding the key!

How EXACTLY do you use the KEY? I got no key and assume I should have now the flag as key. But nothing shows on the /key (keyring).

------ For all who got stuck on that part, here some missing intel:

YOU GET A CRYSTALLINE GLOBE AS A KEY. Gods, what a stupid idea to give back a item you need for the quest as a key. You have to hold the Crystalline Globe and push the lever at the lairs door, then the door circles open and everybody can enter to get to the dragon, regardless of being in raid or having mercs! So you can let anybody enter who needs the backflagging / key to HoH (for completion of the Planar Power AA).

The Planar Projection does not stay very long, so get all your flags first. You can bring in your toons for backflagging even after the dragon has been killed but you have to be fast. The head to HOH to make the temporary flag fixed. You can use fellowship inside but the port to the fellowship will be only to the door of the lair. From there on you are in a kind of preparation room to look down into the big cave. If you click the orb in front of the window then you disappear in the lair and Aerin'Dar will engage. YOU DONT HAVE A POSSIBILITY TO GO BACK TO THE PREPARATION ROOM. The only idea is: port back with fellowship, open the lair with the key and then enter again (e.g. for bringing toons inside etc.).

HOW TO GET TO HOH? The man with the key (Crystalline Globe) seems the only one to get to the big platform in the middle of the cave and click on it. This platform will turn and you can fall/levitate down and run along the cave to the HOH-Entrance. A bunch of 10-20 mobs have to be slain to get to the porting pillars to HoH. At the end there are non-KOS guards and to get into HOH you have to click one of the two pillars near the guards.

IS FABLED AERIN'DAR REALLY SO HARD? No if you are at Lvl105 with a Rogue Merc then the dragon is history very fast. Because some posts argued about the 10s fear: only Druid and Enchanter (Lvl105) got feared once or twice, the Warrior never. It was complete overkill. But the Level 69-78 at this little raid had their fun in running. If you want to have a bit more thrill then choose your main tank a lower level ;)

But many of the 70er guys where really happy about the drops and their upgrades.

KEYRING: after using the key it was possible to open the lair from the inside lever to leave but it was not possible to open it from the outside. So that key does not go to the keyring. You always need that stupid globe to open this lair :(

Updated Walkthrough 2013-11-29
# Nov 29 2013 at 5:11 PM Rating: Decent
While attempting this quest I discovered some errors in the original walkthrough. This version is updated to include campfire clickies, Call of of the Hero and clickable text links.

Find Sergeant Johson Popoah and hail him twice.
DO NOT RESPOND OR CLICK THE LINK UNTIL AFTER THE SECOND HAIL! IF YOU RESPOND OR CLICK THE LINK PRIOR TO THE SECOND HAIL CAMP OR ZONE TO CLEAR QUEST PROGRESS AND START OVER.

[Fri Nov 29 16:13:43 2013] You say, 'Hail, Sergeant Johson Popoah'
[Fri Nov 29 16:13:44 2013] Sergeant Johson Popoah says 'State your business or leave our [compound].'

DO NOT RESPOND OR CLICK THE LINK YET!

[Fri Nov 29 16:13:46 2013] You say, 'Hail, Sergeant Johson Popoah'
[Fri Nov 29 16:13:46 2013] Sergeant Johson Popoah says 'Leave now before there is bloodshed.'

Now it is ok to respond.

[Fri Nov 29 16:13:49 2013] You say, 'compound' <FROM TEXT LINK>
[Fri Nov 29 16:13:49 2013] Sergeant Johson Popoah says 'This is the primary command center for Che Virtuson. We fall under the leadership and guidance of Captain Ryglot. I must now ask you to leave.'

IMMEDIATELY go see Paralin Notion and hail him.

[Fri Nov 29 16:14:12 2013] You say, 'Hail, Paralin Notion'
[Fri Nov 29 16:14:12 2013] Paralin Notion says 'You're either [brave], or your [stupid].'
[Fri Nov 29 16:14:15 2013] You say, 'brave' <FROM TEXT LINK - PARALIN NOTION DOES NOT RESPOND>
[Fri Nov 29 16:14:23 2013] You say, 'company' <MANUALLY TYPED TEXT FROM PREVIOUS WALKTHROUGH>
[Fri Nov 29 16:14:23 2013] Paralin Notion says 'We're a part of the Battalion of Marr. We're soldiers from Che Virtuson. We were dispatched to this part of the Plane of Valor to eliminate an age old target. Unfortunately, due to some recent events our mission has been placed on hold and our [squad] has been asked to remain behind.'
[Fri Nov 29 16:14:28 2013] You say, 'squad' <FROM TEXT LINK>
[Fri Nov 29 16:14:28 2013] Paralin Notion says 'We are apart of Ducee Tapferson. Our squad is known for our bravery. We were successful in capturing this [razorfiend] earlier today. You've shown some bravery as well my friend and that is the reason I request your [assistance].'

At this point, IMMEDIATELY proceed to Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln in the bridgehouse. Do not hail him or anyone in between, just walk up to him and immediately say "What is aerdin'dar?"

I used a campfire clicky without any issues.


[Fri Nov 29 16:15:49 2013] You say, 'what is aerin'dar' <MANUALLY TYPED TEXT FROM PREVIOUS WALKTHROUGH>
[Fri Nov 29 16:15:49 2013] Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln says 'I don't have time to explain the glass dragon to you. Leave before I get angry.'

At this point IMMEDIATELY return to Paralin Notion in the tents. Do not hail anyone in between. I used Call of the Hero to return to the tent area without any issues.

[Fri Nov 29 16:16:17 2013] You have been summoned! <CALL OF THE HERO>

Turn in the hearts.

[Fri Nov 29 16:16:52 2013] You gain party experience!!

At this point IMMEDIATELY return to Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln in the bridgehouse. Do not hail anyone in between.

[Fri Nov 29 16:18:10 2013] You say, 'Hail, Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln'

That information is classified. I can tell you, but then I'd have to kill you.' Aaramis laughs. 'Go to Captain Ryglot and he'll be able to fill you in with all the details.'

At this point IMMEDIATELY return to Captain Ryglot Cupperhide in the tents. Do not hail anyone in between.

[Fri Nov 29 16:19:11 2013] You have been summoned! <CALL OF THE HERO>

[Fri Nov 29 16:19:21 2013] You say, 'Hail, Captain Ryglot Cupperhide'
[Fri Nov 29 16:19:21 2013] Captain Ryglot Cupperhide says 'I am very [busy] at the moment. Perhaps you should come back at another time __________.'
[Fri Nov 29 16:19:24 2013] You say, 'busy' <FROM TEXT LINK>
[Fri Nov 29 16:19:25 2013] Captain Ryglot Cupperhide says 'I can't go into any great detail, but the Crystalline Globe was taken from our command structure. Its believed to have been separated into three pieces. Unfortunately, we're having a lot of trouble relocating it. Perhaps you'd like to [help].'
[Fri Nov 29 16:19:26 2013] You say, 'help' <FROM TEXT LINK>
[Fri Nov 29 16:19:26 2013] Captain Ryglot Cupperhide says 'That's good to hear __________. I wish we had more soldiers like yourself willing to help. I'm going to need you to locate the missing pieces of the globe and bring them back to me. After you've acquired the pieces perhaps you'd be able to rally enough people to lend us a hand with another [mission] objective we've been unable to fulfill do to our diminished numbers.'
[Fri Nov 29 16:19:28 2013] You say, 'mission' <FROM TEXT LINK>
[Fri Nov 29 16:19:28 2013] Captain Ryglot Cupperhide says 'Well, I can't go into any details as to our main purpose is, but one of our missions was to exterminate the crystalline dragon. However, due to our company being split we are unable to go forward with this part of the operation. It has been placed on hold, pending the outcome of the [war].'
[Fri Nov 29 16:19:30 2013] You say, 'war' <FROM TEXT LINK>
[Fri Nov 29 16:19:30 2013] Captain Ryglot Cupperhide says 'Unfortunately, that is one of the things that I'm unable to speak of at this time. However, if you are [willing] to help rally some people together I may be able to release some more information to you.'
[Fri Nov 29 16:19:31 2013] You say, 'willing' <FROM TEXT LINK>
[Fri Nov 29 16:19:32 2013] Captain Ryglot Cupperhide says 'Well, that's good to hear. Bring me back what I've requested and we'll talk then.'

One piece of the crystalline globe drops off of the Luminii Crawler, one drops off frogs near the bridgehouse, and one drops off of the skellies. Once the Captain recieves the three pieces of the globe, he gives you back the completed globe, which is the key to Aerin'Dar's lair.

[Fri Nov 29 16:19:51 2013] Captain Ryglot Cupperhide looks up at you in surprise. 'I can't believe you brought the missing pieces back to me so quickly. I have a team of men who have been looking for these pieces for weeks now. That's quite a feat. Unfortunately, I will be unable to make use of the Crystalline Globe at this time. A message has been dispatched to my platoon asking us to return to the Halls of Honor. It looks as if we'll be joining up with the rest of our company fairly soon. Keep the globe. If you're able to rally enough people together to take on Aerin`Dar then perhaps you'll be able accomplish an objective that our platoon was unable to do. I must go now. Good luck to you __________.
[Fri Nov 29 16:19:51 2013] You gain party experience!!

After Parallin says, "You are brave or stupid," if he doesn't respond to you, give him the next line as written above.

This, Agnar and Saryrn are still worth doing before Fableds. Many people want a crack at these mobs and they are still keyed. However, the Aerin`Dar key dialogue and turn in is very buggy. Just keep camping, feeding them their lines until you get through. Do not give hearts to Paralin Notion until he tells you to prove yourself or he will eat them.

OK here's the deal with this quest. You can do it if you're already flagged - that doesn't matter. HOWEVER, I found that if you zone during the dialogs, you're screwed. That includes using abscond or succor. I would run to the castle and do a hail, succor back to hail again and it would reset. Lost a whole set of hearts doing that. So the best thing to do is get all 6 quest pieces before you even start the dialogs. Then do them all at once without zoning. Worked for me then no problem...

I started the quest exactly as written, everything was fine until I went to the Master Sargeant, when I said "I am here to aid the cause" he just turned and nodded, no dialog other than that. Redid it in case I had targeted soething else, same result. Not sure what to do now.

Exactly the same problem here ... Zoned in and out a few times ... but no cigar.

Ok here is the deal. I JUST got done this quest. You CAN do it if you are already flagged. I am EP flagged and I did it. Here are the steps:

-Hail Sergeant Johson Popoah at loc -973, -538, 54 Twice. Do NOT respond to his compound prompt. Just hail him two times.

-Behind Sarg Popoah is Paralin Notion. Hail Paralin Notion and follow the prompts.

The rest of the quest is listed above correctly.

Only thing I might add is that the Lumini Crawlers are NOT common. Took two hours of clearing near the lever to get one of these to pop.

Sergeant Johson Popoah says on the second hail "State your business or leave our [Compound]" you say "what compound" he then says "This is the primary command center for Che Virtuson. We fall under the leadership and guidance of Captain Ryglot. I must now ask you to leave."

edit: after I went over and hailed Paralin Notion and got "Paralin Notion Stands at attention." I went back to see Sergeant Johson Popoah and when i hailed him again i got the "Leave now before there is bloodshed." message. Also after saying "I am willing" to Captain Ryglot Cupperhide he responded with "Well, that's good to hear. Bring me back what I've requested and we'll talk." before handing in the pieces.

This quest is definitely fixed. I have AD flag and just did the quest today verbatim as stated above. Quest works fine and I now have my AD key. Careful when going to open the DD now. Several watchmen KOS yellow con to lvl 70 standing outside. They don't see invis however.

Still broken for me too. Everything stopped when I hailed Paralin Notion after talking to Master Sergeant Aaramis Daryln.

I tested this last night. 2 petitions later the GMs decided that I need to delete my character with 309 days played on it and start a new one if I wish the key.

Tried to do this quest as directed above dialog stopped when I returned to Paralin Notion for second hail. Attempted to restart and now no one talks.
By Pass This...
# May 02 2005 at 3:34 PM Rating: Default
Could you by pass all this by just killing AD without getting any of this stuff and still be Ele flagged...?

Or do you have to get all this crap, then turn it in so if 23 people wanna get to AD, 23 people needs all this stuff...?

Also:

Can you by pass any part of the quest, like the hearts? Or will he give you an item in return, so it then begins to be impossible to skip anything?

RE: By Pass This...
# May 07 2005 at 10:47 AM Rating: Decent
You only need the above mentioned items to get the key to AD's lair. Only one key is needed per raid.

So, to answer your question .. yeah you can skip it, but someone in your raid will have to do the quest so you can get to AD to kill it. Once you kill AD, a projection will pop, hail that prjection and you will get a flag that counts toward planar progression Smiley: yippee
RE: By Pass This...
# Sep 27 2005 at 9:46 PM Rating: Decent
Actually, you do not even need to kill AD for elemental access. All you need AD for is to gain access to Halls of Honor (which you get at 62 or 63) and for access into the Temple of Marr. You can complete the 3 trials (required) and get piggied into Temple of Marr for LMM kill.

Along the LMM chain all that's required is a single PoJ trial, the three HoH trials, and LMM kill.

Just for clarification - the globe that identifies as "A Crystalline Gem" drops from the skellies, the one that identifies as "A Crystalline Orb" drops from the crawler and the one that identifies as "A Crystalline Staff" drops from the frog.

Some of the posts here indicate this key is a single use.

I'm collecting the pieces on Tunare with my 70 BL so I can get my 66 DRU the AD flag. Is the AD key one-shot use or can you use it multiple times?

This fellow starts the quest. He is in the tent 250 meters ENE of the zone out stone at location -968,-536,54. When hailed, he says, "State your business or leave our [compound]." Player replies, "What compound?" Sergeant JP replies, "This is the primary command center for Che Virtouson. We fall under the leadership and guidance of Captain Ryglot. I must now ask you to leave."

Note: When I did this, Paralin Notion was on top of the same tent as Sergeant JP. I had to attack the ones on the ground to get him to aggro and come down, then zone out and start all over again. Tried levitation, SOE, etc. to get on top of the tent, but after 45 mins of attempts with some good help, that just wasn't going to happen.

Group or Individual

Can anyone advise if this flags just the individual doing the hand-in or the whole group?
RE: Group or Individual
# Nov 06 2004 at 8:53 PM Rating: Decent
This is a key to open a door. Once the door is opened, anyone may enter. Only the person completing the quest will receive the key.
