I have the Scepter of Shadows, however, when clicking the door with it on my cursor I'm told the item is no drop, no trade, etc.

I've also tried with it just in my inventory but I can't seem to get past the door.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

This item? https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=21138

What level are you? If you're 55 or higher, you don't need the key. Most likely it's trying to click instead of using the Use key (U by default). You shouldn't need it on your cursor, but can have it there and use the U key. This is especially likely if you're not getting an error message when clicking without it on your cursor.

Also, check your /key ring for Palace Key (Vex Thal) EDIT: The Scepter of Shadows, as I remember as soon as you make The Scepter of Shadows, you get it on your key ring. If it's on your key ring, you don't need it on your cursor, or even on you at all.

I am level 83 now. I wasn't using the "U" key which may explain it. I checked /key and that one is not listed.

Going to try it again, hitting U this time...

Do you need to be in a raid to get in?

UPDATE: I tried "U" at the door with the scepture on my cursor and it said the door was locked. I am guessing you must be in a raid to get in? Why? Would like to see Sony fix that as I am sure it's almost a forgotten zone at this point. I'm just after a very specific drop, the Wand for summoning water. I have the orb already. :)

Thanks for answering!

You don't have to be in a raid, I've went in solo many times, unless this is something new. EDIT: Solo today.

Anyway. just to make sure, you are talking about the zone in door in Umbral Plains, and not the 1st Castle door inside the zone? That door requires a key (Palace Key) dropped from Va Dyn Khar.

I'll go check it out, and get back.

EDIT: Had no problem, almost got in without aggroing Rumblecrush :) Also on an 83 Rng without The Scepter of Shadows.

Explains some of the key droppers, but Rog / Bard (200+ Pick Locks skill) for some of them.

considering this zone is 9 expansions old..and.. about 5 yrs old.. the fact that you're complaining the gear sucks is stupid. of course it sucks compared to current gear, but when it was ***NEW*** it was the best out there.

Been running a kill group through here(for clickies) for the past couple of months whenever it is up and we are on(all 70 alts from a demiplane guild).

Been running Warrior, Bard, Necro(me), Rogue, Shaman, Cleric. Have grouped everything inculding AHR easily.......takes a while on the names but the hardest part is clearing to them.

Coth Point

Is there a safe spot on the second floor of VT to coth to? Please give good directions if so. Thanks

-me
#REDACTED, Posted: May 31 2004 at 2:23 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Well, it is sort of safe. On the 2nd floor there are 3 nameds with alike rooms, DXXT DXV and DXX. To the west and east of each mob there is a door, there is a torch in both corners of these rooms, and that is where you usually plant the coh bot. Only 1 mob roams and it does not see invis.
RE: Coth Point
# Aug 03 2004 at 4:53 PM Rating: Default
I think he meant any CoH points from TVK onward. The spots at blob 1 and DXXT (and DXV/DXX for that matter) are well-known. The spots after that are either non-existent or are not widely disseminated knowledge.
#REDACTED, Posted: Aug 16 2004 at 4:56 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) oh and I meant if you like wanted to leave 1 aten blob and aten up. its very unsafe because of warders and aten blob itself if it is up.
#REDACTED, Posted: Aug 16 2004 at 4:56 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) ahh gotcha. well /shrug if u wanted to kill 1 aten blob and camp a mage there, that place is safe.

VT
# Dec 04 2003 at 2:09 AM Rating: Decent
Vt aint that hard to get to if you got the time to get shards, and my guild has killed the Emp in Ssra many times for the rifts, easy kill, almost always flawless kills, several guild on 7th that farm emp, and VT, although only 1 guild on server in PoTime, PoP God's gotta be harder if 4 guilds in VT and 1 in PoTime.

just 2cp
#REDACTED, Posted: Dec 10 2003 at 11:14 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) the gods arent that hard just everone gets stuck on corinav fighting in water is hard btw
hard to get into
# Sep 21 2003 at 7:24 PM Rating: Default
[/Gold]First of all. i believe this is the 2nd hardest zone to get into, besides PoTime,

secondly, thsi zone is almost useless unless u have a raid with u 24//7 PS. is there a zone that apecializes in good paladin items? (only lvl 43 but better to knwo early and get it soon then wait til im 65 and find out there was uber no drop in some place that i could get at lvl 40[Gold]
#REDACTED, Posted: Oct 20 2003 at 8:49 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) VT is not so bad. The key for VT can be done in less than a week of on and off playing. I doubt the same could be said for Elemental Planes. As for Sleeper's, it's easy, but it takes time, only so many dragons up at once. Veeshan's Peek is a joke by today's standard, and the loot is **** poor. That key can be done in a day or two.
#REDACTED, Posted: Sep 28 2003 at 7:21 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Hmmm well...
#REDACTED, Posted: Oct 12 2003 at 4:17 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) ST as in Sleepers Tomb? You kill one mob, turn in talisman and blam OR if your rich, u buy Zland's talisman and turn in.
#REDACTED, Posted: Nov 22 2003 at 4:50 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) All sharbs are soloable by a 65 druid except the ssra one. Had a 62 bard come in and we got 2 shards in about an hour.
#REDACTED, Posted: Nov 24 2003 at 8:54 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) is it just me, or is the highest lvl mob in this place a rock with eyes??? it out lvls the aid encounters here... is there a boss to this place?

Use cold on: Senshali, Va Liako, Thall

Use fire on: Zethon, Centien, Liako, Va Dyn

Excellent post, you're exactly right; except you may find that you can use ice as well as fire on the Va Dyns. Boss mobs aren't particularly resistant to either fire or ice, but they have a ton of hitpoints.

Question
# Apr 23 2003 at 4:43 PM Rating: Default
Would it be possible for a single group of 6 level 65's with a crap-load of AA's and HoT armor (or slightly better) to kill effectively non-named mobs here? Basically I am asking, did PoP's level 65 cap and all the AA's and spells that came with it significantly lower the difficulty of this zone to something a small force can do? (I know named are out of the question). Anyone who has extensive experience in this zone please respond. Thanks

I think the answer is 'No'. Like Obeenor said, the exp sucks. Secondly, there are too many non-mezzables that will add and cause the 6 of you to wipe.

Don't forget that you have to kill the Ssra Emp for part of the Vex Thall Key Quest. You will certainly need a good guild to help with that, and it's unlikely they let you loot the key quest items from the Emp if you are just on the raid as a guest.
