Need dialogues.

You have been assigned the task 'Eminent Impressions'.

To find the patterns that will inspire you, you will need to kill strong sentinels in Thundercrest, and flameweave menders in the Nest. The patterns you will need are the engraved patterns on the chest of the sentinels and the embossed patterns on the bracers of the flameweave menders.

Kill 20 Strong Sentinels (0/20) - Thundercrest Isles

Make impressions of the chest engravings on strong sentinels (0/5) - Thundercrest Isles

Kill 10 Flameweave Menders (0/10) - The Accursed Nest

Make impressions of the bracer engravings on flameweaver menders (0/2) - The Accursed Nest

Make impressions of the chest engravings on strong sentinels (0/(how many?)) - (zone?)

Make impressions of the bracer engravings on flameweaver menders (0/(how many?)) - (zone?)

Need hand-in dialogues, faction hits if any.

I'd killed nearly 20 Flameweave Menders in OW Accursed Nest while on this step. I had the book on me but never got any yellow text to indicate the game didn't see the book, I got credit for the 10 kills as I should have, but never ended up with an update to the book. Sent a message to EQ's support and they said it sounded like a bug and to /bug it in game. I'm going to keep trying to get updates to this task every day but so far dropping 2 or 3 more a day hasn't gotten a single task update for making the 2 impressions needed. I'll update this post if I hear anything from support or if I get a task update and find out I've just been exceedingly unlucky.

Steps:

Make impressions of the chest engravings on strong sentinels (0/5)- Thundercrest Isles

Make impressions of the bracer engravings on flameweaver menders (0/5)- The Accursed nest

Delete these, you have them duplicated above:

Make impressions of the chest engravings on strong sentinels (0/(how many?)) - (zone?)

Make impressions of the bracer engravings on flameweaver menders (0/(how many?)) - (zone?)

The last step is missing here it is:

Deliver the impression book to an artisan of your race (0/1) Zone= ALL. Being human, go back to Freeport and hand in the impression book to

The missing parts above...

Make impressions of the chest engravings on strong sentinels
Make impressions of the bracer engravings on flameweaver menders

All you need is the Eminent Impressions book in your inventory (not in the bank!!) and with each kill of the correct type of mob there is a random chance that it will also make an impression.

5 chest engravings
2 bracer engravings

The strong sentinels are by far the hardest part even though the spawn mechanics for both mobs for this quest are similar. The strong sentinels share spawn with 3 other types and a named. However, the area where most sentinels spawn also has a spawn with 3 tempest dervish that can roam the corridors. They disspell, starting with HP buffs. Using a 74 druid with J1 tank merc and 68 mage with cleric merc, I still had to use exodus a number of times (granted, the druid is low on AA and spells in the 70-74 range). The best strategy is long pulls in a cubby that doesn't get agro from the corridors. There are a few of those in the corners only. The ones that on the side of a corridor still will get agro from roamers.

For the flame weave menders it is simply time consuming, but the strategy is a lot simpler. Get to the bridge with the lava. Break that camp, setting up in just looking inside that room. That room has 3 goblin spawns and a visitor, each of which can turn into a mender.
You can also setup just past the bend over the bridge. You can then pull the room and the corridor before the room marked "hatchling room". There will be another spawn over there, but keeping up with the respawns and still being able to get to all the goblin spawns will be a lot harder.

Last but not least, this still isn't a quest you can molo at level, it's even hard to 2-box and because of the spawn mechanics you won't get this done in an typical 3-4 hour exp group.
