This task begins with Emissary Farith at the Butcherblock Wayfarer's camp. Emissaries have been spotted elsewhere, so this task may be initiated by others as well. (Confirmation needed, if so.)

You say, 'Hail, Emissary Farith'

Emissary Farith says 'Ah come seeking information about the troubles with the sun have you? Of course you have, what other reason would there be. Now, its not my place to say but I think we're in real [trouble] here. End of the world type of trouble if you know what I mean.'

You say, 'What trouble?'

Emissary Farith says 'From what I've overheard the Brotherhood have been finding these sunshards on the undead they have destroyed. To hear them talk the undead have been found to have these as well. Perhaps these sunshards are what is causing their increased activity? I would be indebted to you if you were able to [obtain] some of these shards for me.'

You say, 'I will obtain some of the shards'

Emissary Farith says 'I'll need at least four of the full sized shards to do any meaningful research on them, but I think I might be able to assemble the larger sections from the smaller pieces if needed. Bring me any you find and I'll see what can be done.'

One of the four tasks you can choose from is 'Greater Corrupted Sunshards'.

You have been assigned the task 'Greater Corrupted Sunshards'.

Emissary Farith should be able to assemble proceed with his research if you can bring him four greater corrupted sunshards.

Deliver 4 Greater Corrupted Sunshards to Emissary Farith (0/4)

Greater Corrupted Sunshards drop off the agitated skeletons found throughout the lands (the drop probably depends on the skeleton's level, as they vary anywhere from 10th level all the way up to around 70). Greater Corrupted Sunshards are a reward from the lower level task, so those may work here as well..

Thats crap I just went to the geyser and killed 15 undeads and not one sunshard, so you musta been there right after server came up. This quest is not worth the effort for a 10% slow.

Super easy to get these off the Vampire and Mummy models around guiser in Sunder. Four of them dropped with 6 kills total. I was camping the Steamvent Ruby.. which is not quite so common.

Where did you get them?
Spawn Location

Nice. Took a little less than an hour to get 64 Lesser Shards in Iceclad. They aren't 'static' but you can sit in the spawn point and kill them as they pop. Loc 5294.61, 740.44, 95.26 Just up from the docks where the succor point is. Have to kill the undead that roams very close - there were a couple I killed and just followed them back until I had the spawn point.

there has to be more to this btw the mobs are in differnt zones ive seen them in black feather and goroku mesa now ..they seme to be slowly spreading ..also seen in the hive ...the sun turns red and then the mobs appear they are faily powerful whiel the sun is red in the sky but once the sun is clear they are easier to kill
Well some info

well drop rates have been increased dramatically.

also Found a static undead spawn in iceclad next to the rare big bird ( thingy that drops the map pice) on the utter msot iseland that repops 10 seconds after the undead PH is killed.

didnt take very long there.


You need one of the following nominations:

4 greater shard
16 corrupted shards
64 Lesser shards
256 minor shards


4 of 1 tier can be haded in to get 1 of the above tier. The above numbers are what you need to complete the quest line by just farming 1 tier or shard type.

10% slow that doesn't stack with bard, chanter, beast or shaman slow, lasts 36 seconds max and takes 3.0 to cast with a 5 minute reuse.

Only positive I see is it seems to be unresistable. Not sure if the time spent clicking it is worth the time lost meleeing or casting.

please you know how eq works,

there is a bunch of other drops with this event too, for all we know it could be a part of a bigger and better item.

True. This will negate haste on an undead target, with no save. Sounds like it might be useful against a few specific mobs.
