This is a special raid in the style of the Living Legacy raids, which became available April 13, 2009 as part of EverQuest's 10th Anniversary events. It periodically becomes available on live servers for weeks at a time. For much of the year, it is not available.

In 2014, it will be available from November 12 through to December 10.

It begins with Grusal the Emissary of Rallos in the Plane of Knowledge.

Here, you'll have to kill about 21 dragons total. The description from the 10th Anniversary Website:

Mighty beasts and children of the crystalline goddess Veeshan, dragons have always commanded respect and fear from Norrathian adventurers. For years, would-be dragon slayers have coveted their glittering hordes and feared their crushing claws. Prove your mettle in the newest encounter for the 10th anniversary. Make your way through the dragons of Norrath, starting with Lord Nagafen and culminating with the mighty Kerafyrm. Group and raid-sized versions both promise to test the abilities of all levels of adventurers. Top the leaderboard with your fastest time!

The reward is a Gold Plated Contact Spring Model of varying power, depending on how many dragons your group or raid manages to kill.

There is a second reward, Gold Plated Spiked Gear Model, of varying power that will scale based on the years played by the character.


Dragon Waves:

1. Lord Nagafen

2. Lady Vox

3. a dracoliche

4. Gorenaire

5. Trakanon

6. Phara Dar

7. Lord Yelinak

8. Vulak`Aerr

9. The four warders of Sleeper's Tomb

10. Quarm

11. Kessdona the Enlightened

12. Yar`Lir the Living Storm

13. Ashenback

14. Shar`Drahn

15. Tsikut

16. Vishimtar the Fallen

17. Lethar (the second version, alongside Selay the Brokenwing)

18. Big Bynn I

19. Brood Mother Visziaj

20. Kerafyrm the Awakened

Killed half the dragons the first time thru and only got the Gold Plated Contact Spring Model XII. Did it again and went all the way, killing all the dragons. Clicked the abacus (it poofs) and it did not upgrade from stats for killing half of them to all of them. I then talked to Distribution Facilitator XCV (Living Legacy) in POK right outside the lobby doors and he gave me another abacus. I then destroyed the first spring model since they are lore. When I clicked the Gold Clockwork Abacus again it gave me an upgraded spring but only to Gold Plated Contact Spring Model XXXV. Not sure why it did not upgrade to the final one. The Gold Plated spiked gear shows correctly for the years I played.

105 ranger, 105 bard (raid geared) + 95 shaman bot (RoF group geared) knocked out all 20 dragons. didn't think we'd make it past Big Bynn but it was a lot easier than I imagined. Kerafyrm was a lot of fun and can most likely be ranger/shaman duo'd.

doing all 20 dragons gave us this contact spring aug:
AC: 30, WIS: 0+4, INT: 0+4, HP: +100, MANA: +200, ENDUR: +100

the other (charm) aug is based on your character's years /played.
my account is over 15 years /played which gave this spike gear aug:
AC: 20, STR: 0+3, DEX: 0+4, STA: 0+3, CHA: 0+6, WIS: 0+3, INT: 0+3, AGI: 0+4, HP: +175, MANA: +175, ENDUR: +175

we also did Giants x3 event, got up to Brekt but did not attempt him. have fun!

You would need to be following a chain of instances starting at trivial and increasing in difficulty as you went on. It's not a quest in the sense you are using the word.
Death touch

Tried this today, got to dracoliche and got death touched by Fright in Fear. Beware if you can't take a 100k (-spell shield) hit.

Level 97 WAR and level 96 CLR were able to duo the quest line up to Lethar 2.0. The only real bottleneck in the entire thing was Kessdona, since you need someone with tracking abilities for those stupid golems (this part of the event took over a little over 2 hours of trial-and-error and guessing which golems were the correct ones to kill). Would have killed Lethar easily, but the quest ran out of time.

Mercs are automatically suspended upon zoning in to any one of the zones.

There is a second reward (unknown as of yet) which will be given to players after the event has run its course. It will scale based on how well your group/raid did compared to other groups/raids on your server. Time will be used to break ties.


I think this should be changed to:

This doesn't seem to mesh with the the charm effect for the Gold Plated Spiked Gear Model. Can anyone confirm that this is the case?

Ok, if you already have these augs from previous DDD runs, this is the way they upgrade:

1) The charm aug will update automatically depending on your furthest attempt credit, but the actual aug itself is based off how many years of veteran rewards you have (so 1.1, 2.1, 3.1, etc in /played). So the only time you ever need to delete it and get a new one is after your account is credited with another full year paid for.

2) The other aug does not update automatically, and is based solely on your attempt that suceeded the furthest. It will need to be deleted any time you progress further into the mission.

As for the abacus (clicky) that you get when you join the mission in inventory, you can also get it from another NPC near the GL entrance in PoK. Believe that NPC is up year round as well.

One last note, don't use the normal aug removers, use the one sold by the same NPC that costs 10 plat and destroys the aug instead of removing it. These augs can always be replaced (though i'd get the abacus in hand before deleting myself), and therefore it makes no sense paying alot to remove it when upgrading.

Goodluck

What npc are you talking about? You can't buy or sell anything to Grusal the Emissary of Rallos. I go to guild hall and try that merchant thinking maybe there is a 10pp aug solvent that will destroy the aug. The only thing for sale from that npc that came close to 10pp was Augmentation Solvent which didn't work and class III augmentation distiller which of course did not work either. If your talking about Distribution Facilitator XCV he doesn't sell that augment distiller either. He does give you a new Gold Clockwork Abacus upon hail and then you would right click that to get your reward.

Warning-

Doing the group version of Dragons, Dragons, Dragons no longer provides rewards based on how many dragons you are able to kill.

You are now rewarded with a model augment that is equal to the amount of credited time on your account.

Yes, this means if you have 2 years on your account and your group kills kerafyrm...you are rewarded with model II

Yes, this means if you have 11 years on your account and only kill Nagafen before bailing out...you are rewarded with model XI

It is correct that the only thing that determines the model of the Gold Plated Spiked Gear (charm aug) you get is the age of your account.
However, the model number of your Spiked Gear only relates to the MAXIMUM stats on the augment. Your farthest progress through the Dragons, Dragons, Dragons event is what determines the portion of those stats you actually get for your aug, much like how charms work. For your examples, the person with 2 years on their account that finished out the entire DDD event would have max stats on their Model II spiked gear aug (10 ac 125 hp/mana/end) and the person with 11 years that only killed 1 dragon would have the Model XI spiked gear aug with very very minimal stats (something like 1 AC 5 hp/mana/end and maybe 1 in one or two of the mod2 stats)
Also, the Gold Plated Contact Spring aug model you get is determined by your furthest progress through the event. I've not got good data on the models vs. the progress but I assume the ones you get for raid progress are better than the ones for group progress.

After doing some research, and after running this quest in 2009 and again in 2010, I have come to this conclusion....

Gold Plated Spiked Gear Model (whatever) - is the "Living Legacy" style reward. This item is linked to your account entitlement. Still available to new toons running D3 for the first time. If you did it in 2009 and lost your aug, then hail Distibution Facilitator in pok to get a new one. Or to get an upgraded one (if your time went up) destroy old and hail.

Gold Plated Contact Spring Model (whatever) -- the "scaled" reward. Still available to anyone doing D3 now. No longer scaled supposedly, but purely on how many dragons you kill.

However- In 2009 my guild killed all dragons with 20 mins to spare- this year we killed all with less then 5. Those who did not have the aug previously did not get the ultimate aug but a slightly lower one. So maybe time DOES still play a factor? Is there maybe a bar set per server? Anyway.. more tests to come.


Happy Dragon Killing!

After warders were done - I've soloed them thout a box, they are pretty cake - I got Quarm to 66 pecent. Nothing stuck but lifetaps over time, tash, and lifetap. 5 merc cleric, t5 merc tank, Yozan's animation Rk2, with 78 mage pet gear, and 85 living murderer pet with 2 weaps and a mask.

Chanter mezzed the adds - as well as he could, but they kept despawning, it seemed. Maybe it was just after he reset at 75. Seemed more often though.

Necro and chanter both got a

... Enraged Imp CAN pop from any of the scarelings in Fear during this event. It spawns indifferent, but will assist any of the mobs, and killing it will spawn his nastier cousin, Ireblind Imp.
... This would not be a problem to any of the raids that this event is designed for, but if you're two friends at level 55 and 61 killing dragons for kicks, it is quite an unexpected and painful experience when you're already LOM after clearing out a ton of trash ;-)

I also have done this event 3 times boxing various toons and found a similar problem. But each account i had up received a different rank of aug. Upon close examination i realized that the rank of my aug on each account always ended up being the same # as the amount of veteran rewards i had. I used different level characters each time and each account got same rank reward every time.
