This task follows the Skylance: The Oubliette task.
Since you have recovered the Egg of Tallongast, Ao has learned more about the scrykin prototype. The reason Tallongast was never hatched is because he bears an advanced version of the weakness common to all scrykin. He will absorb power from the plane of magic like a lightning rod and this power will drive him insane far faster than a normal scrykin. Within Tallongast's first few seconds of life, he will become a monster. Within a few moments more he will become unstoppable and completely out of control. This is why the Egg of Tallongast was never hatched... Go to the laboratory of Skylance and follow these instructions to hatch the egg of Tallongast. You know what you must do from there to recover the Chime of Ayonae Ro. Make it quick. The person who gets this task is given The Incubated Egg of Tallongast. Spirit of Ao th Forth Born says "Good luck, ____. Once you find your way into Skylance Tower, speak with my student, Arkahn. He is waiting for you there." Head into Skylance. This is an instance. You have entered Skylance. You say, Hail, Arkahn' Arkahn says "Greetings, ____. I am Arkahn the Gatekeeper of Skylance. Ao has instructed me to wait here for your arrival. I cannot help you overtly, but I will serve as your guide while you remain in this tower. Tell me, where are you headed? The [oubliette]? The [library]? The [laboratory]? Or perhaps [Daosheen's study]? I can direct you to all these chambers. You say, 'How about the Laboratory?' Arkahn says "The laboratory lies beyond the second portal up the ramp. Follow my familiar to the gate. Mind the equipment. Many skrykin artificers have created guardians to protect their workspace." Head into the lab. Go to the center table and place the egg on your cursor. Hit your 'use' key to spawn the egg on the table. Three lab attendants spawn, coinciding with an emote in red text. This text can be directed to its own chat window by specifying Filter -> Other. If it is in the same window as combat spam you risk missing it - or having it scroll off the log before you have finished killing the lab attendants. Every time you successfully answer the emote's directions, a single level 70-72 lab attendant will spawn. These mobs are KOS and wander the upper area where the equipment controls are. Every time you fail.... The machines in the lab, hiss violently and spit steam. You're pretty sure that was the wrong switch. ...and a zombie spawns and attacks. You will then have to start from the beginning. There are eight emotes, and all eight need to be done correctly and in order. The emotes and their translations are as follows: Remove the necrotic portions of the tissue. On the north platform, click the table with tools on it (farther from the center of the zone). Use the Trans-Injector to infuse the essence of magic into the egg. On the north platform, click the pedestal (closer to the center of the zone). From the ether, call out to the spirits willing to aid you in this experiment. On the east platform, click the pillar with the dome on it (farther from the center of the zone). A good dose of ethereal goo needs to be applied next. On the east platform, click the pedestal (closer to the center of the zone). The Dispenser has the next critical component. On the south platform, click the device that looks like a gumball machine (farther from the center of the zone). Switch on the Hyper-Manipulator to align the proteins into their proper sequence. On the south platform, click the pedestal (closer to the center of the zone). Distill the magical spirits into their purest form. On the west platform, click the still (farther from the center of the zone). The Gaze-O-Rama should be used to confer the egg with greater sight. On the west platform, click the pedestal (closer to the center of the zone). Once the 8th emote is handled, Tallongast the Discarded will spawn. It hits for upwards of 2000. Tallongast the Discarded has been slain by ____. Your task `Skylance: The Laboratory' has been updated. Amongst the sludge of the scrykin's contorted body, you find a small metal chime caked in tar. It will need to be cleaned by Ao the Fourth Born before it can be properly used. Your faction with Fledgling Scrykin got better. You have been given: Tarnished Chime. Among the loot it may drop: Gem of Scrykin Magus Pendant of the Overspirit Scrykin Caster Blade On handing the Tarnished Chime to Ao the Forth Born.. Ao the Forth Born cleans the chime that you received from Talongast (sic) the Protytype. `There,' he says. `This should be much more useful for you now.' You receive Harmonic Chime. If you have completed this quest arc, you will also receive a spell/skill/discipline appropriate to your class: Bard - Spell: Aura of the Muse Beastlord - Spell: Spirit of Oroshar Berserker - Skill: Bloodlust Aura Cleric - Spell: Puratus Druid - Spell: Moonshadow Enchanter - Spell: Mind Shatter Magician - Spell: Iceflame Guard Monk - Skill: Master's Aura Necromancer - Spell: Mind Flay Paladin - Spell: Blessed Aura Ranger - Spell: Elddar's Grasp Rogue - Skill: Poison Spikes Trap Shadowknight - Spell: Decrepit Skin Shaman - Spell: Ghost of Renewal Warrior - Skill: Champion's Aura Wizard - Spell: Chaos Flame This task has a 45-minute lockout timer from the time the task was requested. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I just did this mission last night.
I had to do the library and oubliette, because in my 3 person group ( 80 dru/war/clr i boxed the dru and war), no one had done these missions before.
If you say 'group' to spirit of ao the fourth born, you get a list of missions to choose from, if you have done the first two, you can do any of the first 3 missions. So get someone who has done this before to skip the first two missions and just do the laboratory, which is the easiest of the three.
So how hard was this quest with my group of 3? Fairly easy, for max dps, the clr tanked with her ds self heal proc, tanked all the mobs and the named. We just plowed through and killed the attendents as they spawned, without slow.
This mission was fairly easy. The previous two were harder. especially since the library mission spawned 30 book worms at the end. but I will post about those missions under their threads.
(The reason I do mention is it can be misleading.)
So it looks like you must now do all 3 to get the 70spell/aura
Our guild actively farms this for people as they require it.
Only 1 person in our guild has completed all 3, the rest are just task added for the final kill.
One thing to mention is that you can not have any copies of the spell/skill in your bank/shared bank or on your person. You can however have the spell/skill memorized. If you have a copy you will not receive a new one.
The person leading the group will get the egg, and is the person who will be doing the clicks, so plan ahead for that.
have the 1 person zone in, tell the guy at the bottom /say laboratory and his familiar will lead you to the door. click in, walk up to the table, and with the egg on your cursor press "U". the egg will be placed on the table and you will get your First click emote, there are 8 possible. Click the correct button/object according to the red emote message, and then zone out. Check off on your list which button you just pressed. When you press your first succesful button, you will get the next red emote for the next object. But first, zone out. Zone back in, and complete your second button. zone out again, do third, and so on, zoning out after each button press.
Once all 8 are pressed correctly, tallongast will spawn. The one person will zone out, and tallon will stay on his table. Zone back in, buff up, and engage/kill talongast on his table. Watch push carefully and you will Not get any adds , and you won't have to bother trying to pull him to the zone in. make very Sure when you fight him that Everyone in your group is on the table- or they'll most likely aggro adds.
Here is a screenshot for you all, to see which buttons are which, check it out.
Copy and paste this checklist to a notepad file so you can check off the buttons as you complete them. Easy-Peasy.
[]NECROTIC - North far
[]TRANS INJEC - North close
[]FROM THE ETHER - East far
[]GOO - East close
[]DISPENSER - South far
[]HYPER MANIP - South close
[]DISTILL - West far
[]GAZE O RAMA - West close
wonderring Which button is NF? which is NC? check out this screenshot and see.

Also should i be able to do this solo on my warrior at 75? Except for named at end? Or should i bring at least a cleric? Thanks
Heres how this mission works
1) In general do nothing while any mobs are up and you wont get any more mobs.
2) There is no timer on the emotes. There is no penalty for taking an hour to act on an emote. Have one person filter others to a window and use this page to decide which to click when the time is right. There is no hurry.
When you enter and start the script 3 mobs will spawn they take something in the ballpark of 15 minutes to respawn (no thats not a time to live by I am just giving you the sense of it).
You do nothing until they are dead. If you do nothing after they die no other mobs will come until they respawn...
After they are dead the person that has others filtered clicks the appropriate click. Only then will you get one mob (or zombies if that person cant follow instructions). Do not use multiple people for clicks. Do not use memory. Do not use a hastily written list. Do not use a drunk guy. Dont use the guild pot head. THERE IS NO HURRY TO CLICK. Refer to either a printed out list or as I do just alt+tab to this page before clicking.
So you kill 3 and most of the time you never have more than 1 in camp and you can med as long as you need really. And on the 8th single mob you get the named. The hardest part is the 3 when you start the script or the moment they repop depending on the bounce (for example if your dps is in the "wrong" range you might have them repop on the named) Obviously a level 75 mezzer helps a ton.
If you do this mission correctly its alot easier than library.
2 blades
2 Pendant of the Overspirit
2 Gem of Scrykin Magus
looks like they're all common drops.
Easiest way to do this mission is get a bard or monk, others can do it as well but better off with these two.
Copy/paste the mission emotes or print them out from this thread. Now just have your group afk outside and have the person run in and do the emotes to spawn Tallongast. Once hes spawned have group zone in and do buffs, med up. DI the tank and get ready.
If its a bard have him goto the portal and wait for cleric to say DI on or something. Then use kazumi's notes of preservation, go into the portal wait for tallongast to agro then run out fast and jump down the ramp to bottom. If you get an add he will probably get down before tallongast, if this happens fade and kill the add - then wait for kazumi and pull again. Otherwise burn him down and you win. I have no idea what kind of disciplines monks have to avoid damage - but basically the same routine with monk.

Most of the time Tallongast comes solo but about 20% of the time he comes with adds. THIS is the thing I can't figure out, why sometimes the exact same pull strat generates adds. I do believe the difference is in the second or two extra it takes Tallongast to proximity-aggro the puller the way I described it above. I think once any player toon is in the Lab, every mob in the Lab has a chance to aggro but I think there is a slight timing delay based on proximity. So if you're lucky and Tallongast aggros quickly, you just get Tallongast. If Tallongast takes his time to aggro, you raise the chance that the Lab Assistants will notice a player is in the Lab and also aggro.
After 15 wins, that's my hunch...

We tried that last night 4 times and we kept getting adds.
We decided to pet pull. I loaded up 50'ish Monk pet and we buffed him to the teeth. I went through the portal and FD as soon as I went through. Within a few seconds I pulled the named out through the portal solo. Stood and turned toward portal up while sending in pet and when pet took first stint of damage I started backing out of room and backing off pet. I dropped down off ramp to the floor below and named came by itself. We pulled to camp in front of exit portal and burned it down!
For the tagging parts the group stayed outside the room. I got to run around and tag everything up. When things would get too busy or spread out, someone from the group would run in, agro the mobs and then pull them to the zone out giving me time to run to the next platform. Closer to the end I died about 3 times due to casters or AE's standing me up.

As I said below I've been avoiding killing anything but Tallongast. But the scrykins can drop a nice 40% haste augment, so decided to kill some and see how rare this augment must be. Dropped the egg and got the usual 3-spawn. Was able to single-pull 2 of them and killed them near the zone-in. Checked track, one scrykin left of the 3. Paused to rebuff and I camped out one toon (to check my log since I had missed the message for the first set of directions.) As my toon is logging back in, the 3rd scrykin aggros on his own.... coming all the way down to the zone-in. This takes me by surprise but I'm able to deal with it... barely. So the scrykin dies and I load my buff spell sets on my toons... assuming, of course, that there are no hostile mobs left at the moment.
A minute later THREE LAB ASSISTANTS aggro and attack us at the zone-in. I evac. After a minute I zone back in and check track. THREE LAB ASSISTANTS up.
This makes no sense. I had killed the three original lab assistants, the most recent within the last 5 minutes. Surely they can't respawn inside of 5 minutes?
Very strange...

Through 15 wins I've seen:
x5 Gem of Scrykin Magus
x9 Pendant of the Overspirit
x1 Scrykin Caster Blade
One more blade and I'm done, and frankly, I'll be glad to see the last of Tallongast et al.... ;)
I don't kill anything in the zone except Tallongast so I won't have any idea how often the Scrykin Farseer's Stone drops. But that's a fine item and I wouldn't mind hearing from someone with experience concerning how often that drops off the trash. Maybe it's often enough to justify the time it takes to clear them??
