Jaled Dar`s shade may be found at +1590, -120. The simple way to get into Jaled Dar's lair is to have a rogue with a 210+ skill in lockpicking to open the door. If simplicity isn't your thing, or you just want the key for yourself, you can obtain it one of two ways: Either a quest offered by Zlandicar or a quest offered by Neb.

Once you've found your way into the lair:


You say, 'Hail, Jaled Dar`s shade'

Jaled Dar`s shade says 'Mortal! You MUST aid me. I will have my revenge, and my rest!'

You say, 'How can I aid you?'

Jaled Dar`s shade says 'You must wake The Sleeper. He is our salvation, he will restore a new golden age to Norrath. It was a terrible mistake to subdue him, jealousy and envy led us to do it. I see all of this clearly now.'

You say, 'Who is The Sleeper?'

Jaled Dar`s shade says 'Kerafyrm, the best of us, what we should be. We imprisoned him in a timeless slumber aeons ago. I know how to release him, but I am no longer of the flesh, so I cannot do it myself. But you can accomplish this task!'

You say, 'What task?'

Jaled Dar`s shade says 'When the tomb was closed and the entry sealed, many dragons participated in the ceremony. They invested portions of their essence into the seal. The seal is part of them now. With the right talismans, I can show you how to make a key that will allow one to pass, as if they were of the First Brood. If you do not wish to do this for the good of all, perhaps you will be willing to do it for material riches. Priceless treasures are stored in the tomb, yours for the taking, once you are inside and have released The Sleeper.'

You say, 'What talismans?'

Jaled Dar`s shade says 'Sontalak, Lendiniara, Klandicar, Yelinak, and Zlandicar are all that are left alive of those who were involved in the sealing of the tomb. Each has a talisman. Bring me any one of these items, or a large enough piece from one of the talismans from a dead first brood, and I shall unlock its power, which will allow you entry into the tomb.'

You'll need to give him either a talisman from any of the five dragons of the first brood mentioned or a Shard of Hsagra's Talisman, which is dropped uncommonly from top giants (King Tormax, Derakor the Vindicator, The Statue of Rallos Zek, Velketor the Sorcerer).

Jaled Dar`s shade says 'Very well done. Here is how you unlock the entry. Seek out a great dragon statue in the Eastern Wastes, and use this key there. Not very different from how you entered my old domain, Veeshan's Peak, now, is it? Haha, yes, I know many things, even dead.'

Sleeper Awakened
# May 11 2002 at 3:32 PM Rating: Good
Is it true that when you kill all four Warders that the Sleeper awakens, the Warder never spawn again, and after the Sleeper has done his wrath on all the connecting continents then despawns and doesn't spawn ever again? I've heard that in order to keep the Sleeper in slumber just kill three Warders of thr four and the rest will spawn again in succession an so forth....If it is true that they despawn and dont spawn again it would ruin the drop rate on primal significantly being they drop the primal like the Warspear, Claidmore, and Battle Axe as well as the Warsword which would benefit me being a Warrior and a Warrior only sword. Can someone confirm this because if it is true future EQ gamers that play on Povar (Triton) and Bertoxx (Prophecy) and any other server that plan to go to Sleepers Tomb are screwed because these warders also dropsome graet itmes that would then become exstinct. Thank You for your time and email me with a response if time permits. ;) ClintLowryFanatic@hotmail.com

One talisman or all?
# May 04 2002 at 11:28 AM Rating: Decent
I wanted to know if you need ALL the talismans from the Dragons of the First Brood or just one. To kill five dragons for one person for one key seems like bulld**t but any help would be gratly appreciated. ;)

#Anonymous, Posted: Apr 24 2002 at 6:19 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) There are several npc's that would waste the sleeper. They are the nexus scions. They always hit for exactly your max hp, no more, no less. always. Granted they appear to be mortal men, they are invulnerable because of the need for ports to Luclin. Despute that you overgrown bunch of argueing fools.
#Anonymous, Posted: May 16 2002 at 1:49 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Your entire post is wrong....I attacked one for fun, I did damage (not invulnerable), and he hit me back (he did manage to hit me for 2k once and like 800 or 900 the other 2 hits)...and I lived....they're permarooted (so some moron cant agro and kite him off and ***** up the ports).
Getting out
# Apr 22 2002 at 7:52 AM Rating: Decent
I am just curious if Sleeper's Tomb is like Seb.
Once in do I need to get to a special room to get out, or do I need a gater?
OR can I just walk right out the way I came in?
Thanks

HE CAN"T BE KILLED UNLESS THE GMS WANT HIM TO!

verant said that less than half the quests in the game have been discovered, and hinted at a quest to make the sleeper killable. at the moment he is unkillable, but there is probally a quest somewhere that we dont know about to make him killable. verant also did not respond to a question asking of begging certain mobs gives you a quest, so that might be how to start, not sure though. that is my best guess from what i have learned.
RE: quests
# Jun 19 2002 at 6:37 PM Rating: Default
Is this the half of the quests that don't work? Or are they refering to the quests that involve mobs on 30 hour timers to receive your wonderful Fine steel longsword and 3 plat. Less than 10 percent of thier quests are worth the trouble.

I would love to discover more quests. even long quests are worth the fun. But with rewards that match the difficulty of the quest. And what the hell is with making us sit on the game next to a computer that's doing nothing just to wait for a mob that may or may not drop a piece that we are waiting for. I think they honestly expect us to play this game as a profession.

2,000,000,000 hp with 100,000 hp regain that is really funny . Verant in there wrong mind might have something un killable . I have one question for this entire Forum. . . how do you all know so much about the sleeper ? even if you were all level 60s You probably couldn't get the key so . . how do you know is my question

Getting a ST key isn't THAT hard. ATM my guild is in the process of farming ST for Primals. Sadly, because we're on a sleeper awakened server its slow progress.

# Mar 07 2002 at 9:38 AM Rating: Default
In my opinion, the sleeper probably, although highly unlikely can be killed, so long as the programing is there for it to take damage, and if it was to be, the server would mostly likely crash. Do to the fact no design is perfect. For the most part, it probably will never be done til verant is ready for it, and when that happens the world of everquest will probably change in one big event. I have read all the arguements from all you different people and seems funny to me that you would do so over a program (although a fun one). GET A GRIP peace

Reality bites doesnt' it

As a demonstration at a fanfair event two level 60 SK's run by GM's had their Harm touch delays removed. The 2 SK's chained HT's for 15 minutes straight and the sleeper's health barely moved. He is not invulnerable, so yes he is killable, but Good luck to the 300 person group its going to take to bring him down.

A GM event a couple months back against a dragon in DL on the luclin server, proved little problem for 300 people in the 50's. But an AE Fear spell or AE mez sure takes alot of the people out of the fight quick.

Conquest
# Mar 03 2002 at 9:36 PM Rating: Default
First Conquest did NOT kill the sleeper, and they did not "exploit". What hahappened was they were doing "to well" on the 4th warder and a GM woke the sleeper to wipe them out. evn brad later on in posts about it with him trying to use monitored guild chat could find no evidence they were trying to cheat. The guild ban was lifted but most members said "***** you VI" and left anyway.
RE: Conquest
# Mar 11 2002 at 5:31 PM Rating: Decent
yer wrong, brad posted a log of their guildchat in which they clearly stated they were going to 'sploit to make it happen. as for whether or not they were allowed back i cannot argue, but i saw the posted guildchat log <via brad himself on the sony boards> and they CLEARLY knew they were exploiting, they attempted the warder with 24 people, and the guildleader even commented that it was an encounter designed for 40ish, which brad agreed with
RE: Conquest
# Apr 10 2002 at 8:49 AM Rating: Default
Brad posted a log from guilchat, yes. The time and date from the guildchat was cut away though, so there was no way to tell when it was from. In my opinion a very WEAK evidence, since it obviously could be a very old chatlog. Also, Brad DID kinda admit that it wasn't obvious they were exploiting, and if they did, they probably weren't aware of it.

I read that log, i also read their defense and explanation from when they got in trouble. They were sploiting, they were counting on the clerics not being able to be summoned because of an exploit in NPCs not being able to understand where players were cause of some screwy z-axis thing that occurs when you placed the clerics in a certain spot. There is no arguing about the fact it was an exploit, the only reason they were not perma-banned, guild deleted etc was because of the nature of the bug itself not the exploit. However anyone else who tried the exploit afterward could expect a one way ticket out of EQ which was part of the reason Brad posted the log.
RE: Conquest
# Jun 08 2002 at 4:26 AM Rating: Default
..and the sploit DIDN'T WORK!!!! They were loosing against the warder!!! All healers dead!!! If it had worked it would have been an exploit, since it didn't work they didn't benefit from it so it can't be considered an exploit.

...and since the log mentioning the sploit didn't have time and date, it is NOT a valid evidence in this case.
RE: Conquest
# Jun 29 2002 at 4:30 PM Rating: Default
If players are keeping a log of something, they can just edit it later... And also my GM friend says Kerafrym and The Sleeper have been killed before from an exploit, and thus the guild was disbanded... Sounds a heck of a lot like Conquest

Sleeper pops UNLEASH UBER POWER DIRECT DAMAGE ~resisted~ WHAT?!!? or .. um Not Resisted. sleeper Dies epic event Ends. ) that should Be a Great Storyline . again Later on You have to Consider more uber weps more uber Armor.. all that garbage. /yawn/ well..

Sleeper Awakened on Vazaelle...
# Feb 27 2002 at 1:44 AM Rating: Default
Why exactly did CC kill the 4th Warder and release the Sleeper on Vazaelle? Morbid curiosity out of abject, stark mad boredom? Or out of a sense of pure, mean spite because they are a bunch of weenies in RL who's only real accomplishments in life are their level 60 characters and an over-exaggerated sense of self-importance?

Thanks for ruining ST for everyone else on the server, gimps. Of course, I should be equally contemptuous of Verant for programming the zone that way, but they didn't release the Sleeper so that nothing ever spawns in ST again.

So congrats, CC, for being known as the guild who ruined ST on the Vazaelle server. Way to go, ya bunch of hemorrhoids. :(
Caer Cardan and Sleeper
# Feb 24 2002 at 6:34 AM Rating: Default
First of all !! The sleeper was NEVER killed by Conquest!! Conquest killed 4 warder (as first guild) with a exploit and Kerafym spawned as Human model (maybe because of no model) He DT them all before they was summon to the Arena for around of warning ect.

We (Caer Cardan) killed 4 warder with 3 wizards 3 rangers 1 warrior and 5 clerics and some spot healers. Toke long time due to his hp, but got him with no deaths.

Kerafym is made so he cant be killed, he hits for to much and got a nice zone single target DT.

We was around 50 ppl in ST when we killed 1 warder to trigger him, and all just there to see Kerafym and eat the DT..... but the zone crashed -sigh

From www.vazaelle.dk
Outside the Temple of Veeshan, Ventani the Warder was killed for the first (umm?) and last time on Vazaelle, and the sleeper was released. Well, okay, so Ventani was /killed by a GM afterwards, when the sleeper script caused the zone to crash, and the warders to repop. That doesn't matter to us though, as long as we get to ***** the rest of the server over like the evil, cruel nasty people we are.
^^ - nice guild eh?

# Feb 24 2002 at 1:59 AM Rating: Default
If a mob is unkillable, and spawn when u killed some mob, then all character should be killed. That is not logical in Game design. IF VI banned ppl they killed it, VI is cheating. All ppl will resign EQ.....
Killed the SLEEPER??

"(Apparently, when he spawned in the above instance, he doubled spawned, one with a dragon model and another a human!)"

In response to the above quote. I was thinking that possibly the if the human form were slain, if there was any human form to begin with (which is probably some stupid rumor, anyway), the dragon would fall as well.

You have to hand in 5 amulets to Jaled's Shade right? but theres only 4 spot to hand in so do you hand in 4 at once and right after that open screen again and hand in the 5th?

Quote from the quest description above:

"Jaled Dar's Shade wishes you to wake the Sleeper, who is encased within his tomb. He needs a talisman from any of 5 different dragons of the first brood in order to open the door.
"

Notice he say from any of 5 different dragons. I think this means you hand in only one talisman, any one, from any of the 5 dragons.

Alsas I am not yet at the point where I can even think about joining a guild that can kill these dragons, so I dont have first hand knowledge...

Likely that is a typo (only need 4) or he gives you a container of some type to combine them in. Considering the general difficulty of the higher quests on Velious (not speaking from much experience here) I'm leaning towards "5 amulets in a box."
#Anonymous, Posted: Feb 20 2002 at 10:49 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Today on Vazzale the 4 Warders where killed by Caer Cardan a Guild of 50+ only and Mainly 60's i Am not sure how many people was actually Their. I Was told it Took (1 Hour just to kill the 4 warders) Then The "Sleeper" came and His script Was bugged and He Crashed the zone When the Guild got back in the zone the "Sleeper" was Gone and no where to be found. i think they Should Get another Chance to kill him They were Robed and deserve another Chance. I Dont think the "sleeper can be killed but if it can be Caer Cardan is The one's who can Do it. When i logged i Seen Solid 60's and at the End it said your Request was to long. All on i seen was 60 and all in the Sleeper. i asked how many was their they Said 500 people Was Their ) they Stood a Chance.
