This flags you to start the quest for the epic 1.5 if you don't have the Water Sprinkler of Nem Ankh (epic 1.0). Find Tavon Vastsea in Nedaria's Landing near the magus.

You say, 'Hail, Tavon Vastsea'

Tavon Vastsea says 'Greetings ______. I am afraid that I need someone that I can [trust] with this task, these are dark times, and it is hard to tell friend from foe.'

You say, 'Trust?'

Tavon Vastsea says 'Hmmm, well I think I have a task I can entrust you with. Speak to my brother, tell him that I sent you to him. Earn his trust, and you shall have mine.'

Head to Timorous Deep and find Omat Vastsea at -11565, -2225.

You say, 'Hail, Omat Vastsea'

Omat Vastsea bows deeply. 'I have been expecting you, ______. The waters have foretold your arrival. I am High Priest Omat Vastsea of the Triumvirate missionaries. Please feel free to enjoy the quiet solitude of this inn.'

You say, 'Tavon sent me.'

Omat stares at you. 'I received word from my brother that you would be coming. I have just the task for you. I am sure you heard of the [Plasmatic Priests]'

You say, 'Plasmatic Priests?'

Omat Vastsea says 'The Plasmatic Priests were worshippers of Fennin Ro. Their numbers were all but destroyed by adventurers, and with the silence of the Pantheon they no longer draw power from the Tyrant of Fire. However they are still a danger, please find the last remnants of their order and bring me proof of their [destruction].'

You say, 'Destruction?'

Omat Vastsea says 'They are in hiding, the few alcoves that I managed to find were shrouded and hidden. Take this signet and find the keeper for each alcove. Show it to him and he will drop the veil. Strike fast and exterminate the camp before he is able to cloak the camp again. Return the talisman to me with proof of the deaths of the three remaining high priests. Once you have done this, I will send you to my brother with my blessings.'

You receive a Talisman of the Plasmatic Priests (identifies as "The world shall burn").

Head to the Lavastorm Mountains and find Laura Rako on the biggest magma lake, at +1670, +115. Give her the Talisman of the Plasmatic Priests. She gives the item back to you and respawns as High Priestess Shima, along with five Plasmatic Priests and Priestesses, then attacks.

High Priestess Shima says, 'Traitor! You will burn before our might!'

The High Priestess hits for a max ~775 (has ~40,000 hps) while her adds hit for under 100 (each have ~25,000 hps). Loot the Head of High Priestess Shima (identifies as "High Priestess Shima's Head") from her corpse.

Head to The Scarlet Desert and find Jimmic Adle in a small hut, at -1710, +1470. Give him the Talisman. He respawns as High Priest Valon and 4 Plasmatic Priests and Priestesses, then attacks. The mobs here are of the same difficulty as the previous encounter. Loot the Head of High Priest Valon (identifies as "High Priest Valon's Head") from his corpse.

Head to The Great Divide and find Gavon Morant in a hut, at -6115, -490. Give him the Talisman. He respawns as High Priest Maltan and 4 Plasmatic Priests and Priestesses, then attacks. Loot the Head of High Priest Maltan (identifies as "High Priest Maltan's Head") from his corpse.

Give the three heads and talisman to Omat Vastsea.

Omat Vastsea says 'Excellent. I think this was the last of the organized Plasmatic Priests. You have done well, I will send you to my brother with my blessing. Thank you for your assistance.'

Congratulations, you've finished the pre-quest.

First Fight- High Priestess Shima
Quote:
Any dialogs in here?

Nope.
[Thu Jun 09 17:54:38 2011] Normann says, 'Hail, Laura Rako'
[Thu Jun 09 17:54:46 2011] Normann says, 'Hail, Laura Rako'
No response. I was not invisible, she just has no response. Upon handing her the talisman, she respawns as the high priestess along with 4 adds, not 5. I got 3 Priest's, 1 priestess, and High Priestess Shima. They all say "Traitor! You will burn before our might!" They don't say anything when they die.


Quote:
(fight info?)

High Priestess Shima has about 40k hp's. Didn't hit my Warrior for anymore than 265, spent most of the fight trying to cast. Average hit was 117.
Her max hit is 733 on cleric with very little ac and zero defensive aa's, but average about 380.
Adds have about 25k hp, but vary in level, and about 5% in hp. They're absolute pushoever's, averaging hits for 78.

Quote:
(did you get it back after handing it to Laura Rako, or do you go back to Omat Vastsea and get a new one? if the latter, what do you say to get one?)

Yes, she gives it back as soon as you hand it to her, it shows up on your cursor.

Fight 2- High Priest Valon
Quote:
Any dialogs in here?

no, same as Shima.
Quote:
(fight info?)

When I handed him the amulet, he stays as the static Jimmic Adle, and 5 of the adds spawned (bug I guess). When I handed him the amulet again, 5 adds spawned and he respawned as High Priest Valon. All mobs the same strength as previous fight, and con dark blue to a lvl 68.

- and the Talisman he gave you. If you try to turn in only the 3 heads, it will say You must turn in all the quest items at once in order to complete this quest.

fyi

The quest definitely still does work, despite the 'Status: Removed' tag under the title; my cleric alt just began and finished it today.

For the bolded questions in the walk thru:
~/loc of Tavon Vastsea is pos1025 pos1525, just to the Magus's right.
~There is no dialog at all with Laura Rako, Jimmic Adle, or Gavon Morant.
~On giving the amulet to each of these 3 npcs, it is immediately returned to your cursor.
~Fight info: Same for all 3 fights. The npc you give the amulet to despawns and priests/priestesses immediately spawn in place, surrounding you. After the last priest/priestess is killed, the High Priest named spawns in the approx location of the original npc, does not engage immediately. All of the mobs were immune to runspeed changes, none of them summoned. All of them, including the high priests, hit for ~100-500... no parse so that's a ballpark figure.
~At the end, the walkthru states "Give the three heads to Omat Vastsea.". You must also return the amulet to him in the same hand-in.
Still works, give talisman too.

As of today it still works for me. I gave all 3 heads and it said "You must turn in all quest items at once in order to complete this quest" so I added the talisman given to me early to spawn the preists. That did it, so total of 4 items to turn in. The three heads of the preists and the talisman you were given at the start.

Good luck!
Still works, give talisman too.
