When Anashti Sul, a goddess, entered this Norrath for the first time through the rift created by the arrival of Lady Lendiniara, an alternate plane was formed. This plane is held together solely by her power. But like her nature, the plane created by Anashti Sul has two sides as mirrors of each other, one light and one dark.

Vim is one mob. Vigor is a second mob. Both are located at the bottom of the pit within the raid instanced and are inactive until triggered.

Updated, thanks. NOTE: this is a new version of "Monsoon, Sword of the Swiftwind"? that might actually appeal to a higher level character? (No Lucy entry from the item collector exists for it yet if so).

Thanks. Still no item collector entry on this new version, but I have cross-posted this info to the old item to at least help people see that there is two of them now.

1. Find the handmaiden's coffin
2. Recover the handmaiden's skull
3. Take the skull to the Statue of Eternity and perform the ritual
4. Defeat the fanatics!
5. ....

1. At the secret underground passage entry in the big house in the south section there will spawn a big named when close to the underground doors. It is recommendable to kill the yellow roamer before approaching the underground passage. The way can be found directly via the center area to the south. Mobs have a small aggro range so it is possible to wander the zone without fight. One single mob will stand in the way to the entry of the big house and needs to be dispatched.

2. After approaching the secret door, the big guy spawns and needs to be killed -> you get the skull. He has some AE but with a Dru/Clr/War/Enc/Mag/Bst-config at lvl105 without mercs it is not very difficult.

3. In the pit down in the center dispatch all mobs to have free area. Equip the baton and the skull. But you have to be in the center and if you move from your spot then the whole task fails.

4. After a very short time, 10 fanatics wander and attack. They come mostly in pairs. The last one is a lvl 109 High Bokon Fanatic, all others are Lvl 107 (a bokon, a fanatic citizen/remnant). The mobs are all mezzable but the big guy is not very nice. He casts a spell (assume Spite, DoT HP-25000/Tick, Mana-10000/Tick, AE-Range >200) which makes you empty very fast. In this case again the task failed. The first time the holder stepped accidently a bit in direction of the bridge -> Task failed again.

If the DoT is cured with Radiant Cure than you have a bit more time but he casts it regularly so another Cure should be up. A setup with Cure for the Dot, Mezz for all adds and a usual tank/healer combo should make that task. So if you failed the task, port again into the task and experiment with that setup till it works. Mobs are still up, testing can be done. Then it is not the need to get the whole task again to that point only to find out how to beat that nasty Bokon.

The named reminds me on Arsin the Blaze, only that his DoT/Nuke is surely at about Mana-25000. This really sucks, the only idea so far is endless DPS. Happy luck for all raiders and the group or casual players will be pissed....

This task is a bit overpowered. Like Arsin there is little balance in that progression. While this expansion proofs more and more being a beta with bugs like hell, many items (range/charm/jewelry/weapons) are not possible to equip with decent armor and the new raw-crypt armor misses "Focus Effects" I really cannot recommend spending money on that crap as long as the bugs are not gone and it is possible to get better equipment to "perhaps" be able to kill some of the "Mana-Sucker-Mobs".

After 24 tasks (lesser spirit achievement, 6x 4 different tasks to get that) the so-called expansion (which has not slightly the content to be called expansion) disappoints step by step :(

Heroic Adventure: The Handmaiden

From Mayor Salvador West in Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life.

Mayor Salvador West says 'Ah, welcome to our fair city, Sul Vius! It is wonderful to see a new face. Feel free to explore and have fun. This is a place of infinite life and joy all provided by the lady [Anashti Sul]. Here we serve those that have been [relifed]. They have, after all, earned our respect and are the most worthy of Her followers. All I ask is that you show them the same respect. You may even wish to visit the [dead man's party]. We hold it in the circle outside every midnight. Or are you here to help me with an [task] that needs doing, or perhaps you are interested in a more [heroic adventure?]'

You say, 'heroic adventure'

Mayor Salvador West says 'I don't really know how to ask you this. It's a delicate thing, asking you to interfere with our citizens, but something is wrong. For some reason some of those recently blessed with transition have become, well, upset. They are harming other citizens and they need to be stopped, but frankly speaking, I don't want to ask my guards to raise their hands against our most cherished citizens. Those that have been given the gift of relife have proven their faith, or they would not have been transitioned. Their unusual, poor behavior has put me in a difficult position. Are you that person that came to me about that odd [mirror]? Or have you stopped by to [assist] me with this problem?'

You say, 'mirror'

Mayor Salvador West looks into the fragment of mirror you obtained from the Crypt of Sul. He peers deeply into it for a moment, then you see understanding and shock sweep across his face in equal measure. 'I see truth in this thing, but not a current truth, if that makes any sense. I see myself, but completely different. It's disturbing. I can't tell you anything about it, other than I know it is linked to the Goddess. I can, however, tell you who might know. The Handmaiden would know, if anyone does. But you will have to gather her from her crypt and take her to the Waters of Eternity, if you are [willing].'

You say, 'willing'

Mayor Salvador West says 'You will need to perform a ritual, I hope you are up to it. Please leave through the front doors.'
You received the Baton of Office.

You can get into the HA by leaving from the front door or zoning into Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life.

Objective Instructions

1. Find the handmaiden's coffin 0/1 (Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life)
The handmaiden's coffin is in the main crypt, disguised as a broken, shattered coffin of no note.
Auto updates as you run over the coffin at /loc -685.52, -65.89, -5,57.

2. Recover the handmaiden's skull 0/1
The monster that guards the coffin grabbed the handmaiden's skull! You must defeat it and recover the skull
Immediately spawns a terrible monster (red con) when you get the update for running over the coffin. See through IVU and Invis. Casts Tash and Voidstorm (1: Decrease Hitpoints by 65539, 2: Stun (1.50 sec/999)).

3. Take the skull to the Statue of Eternity and perform the ritual 0/1
The mayor taught yo the ritual you will need. Take the skull to the Statue of Eternity. To perform the ritual you must hold the skull in one hand and the baton in the other while next to the statue. Once you start you must not stop, or all will be lost.
There are five an honored citizen and/or an honored resident around the statue. Cleared them away before starting this step.

4. Defeat the fanatics! 0/10
Defeat the bokon and their servants or they will disrupt the ritual! Do NOT let them force you away from the Statue of Eternity.

5. ??? Because this is where I got my butt handed to me.

Those that have been given the gift of relife have proven their faith, or they would not have been transitioned. Their unusual, poor behavior has put me in a difficult position. Are you that person that came to me about that odd [mirror]? Or have you stopped by to [assist] me with this problem?'

You say, 'assist'

Mayor Salvador West says 'Wonderful! Thank you very much. Head out through the front door, please.'

You can get into the HA by leaving from the front door or zoning into Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life.

Objective Instructions

1. Stop the unruly citizens from destroying the town 0/18 Zone: Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life (you can find these in the south east section of the city)

2. Find some indication about why such exalted citizens are acting so strange 0/1 Zone: Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life (I looted this off the last mob I killed in the about step: A Symbol of Marr).

3. Deliver the item to the Mayor 0/1 Zone: Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life (he hands it back)

Mayor Salvador West says 'What is this? A symbol to one of the lesser gods? No citizen would carry that, especially not one with enough faith to earn relife. This must be from one of you outsiders. But, why would... This makes no sense. The Bokon should not even bother taking one of your kind into the Crypt, much less allow one to transition. This is hard to believe, but I need you to confront the Bokon and find out why they would do such a thing!'

4. Hand the item to Bokon Karass, see if he can explain why intruders are being relifed 0/1 Zone: Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life (found at the first landing going down into the pit)

Bokon Karass says 'What is this? Some trinket? I don't care if you think you found it on one of our exalted citizens. I don't care if that fool Mayor has some ridiculous theory. It is none of his business what we Bokon do. We are the hands of the Goddess, he is just the mouth of the people. We make Her will into action. You should leave now. These priests will show you the way out.'

Task locks here

5. Defeat the Bokon 0/4 Zone: Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life (4 an aggressive bokon spawn, be ready to fight as they see through invis)

Collectibles spawn here.

6. Speak with the Mayor 0/1 Zone: Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life

You say, 'Hail, Mayor Salvador West'

Mayor Salvador West says 'That arrogant jerk! He refused to deny that the Bokon are transitioning nonbelievers. I can only imagine that means that they are relifing the unworthy, which might explain why so many of my people are so disturbed. Relife is a gift, to be sure, but only for the worthy. Others could certainly respond poorly. I must speak with someone about this... But there is no one to speak with other than the Bokon. I am sorry, but I must think about this. Thank you for your assistance, but I would ask you to please leave me now. Please leave through the front door.'
The Mayor, though confused about what you discovered, was grateful to you for your help protecting his citizens.

7. Open the chest 0/1 Zone: Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life

In the chest was Manual of Severity and Lesser Essence of Life.

Reward: 225 platium
2 AAs
500 Remnants of Tranquility

This is a Heroic Adventure which is all you need to do to merit the achievement Partisan of Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life. The requirements for various achievements are weirdly very very variable. Some require just ONE relatively easy mission; others have as many as 24! For example, Lesser Spirit Armor requires performing 4 missions SIX TIMES EACH. THIS is one of those missions. And you need to complete this to be able to get Heroic Adventures in the Crypt of Sul. I'm not even remotely close to this and before I tackle the mind-numbing task of doing these 4 missions 6 times each I'll need to read some good pitches as to why I will care about Crypt of Sul HA's.

For THIS mission, the steps are as follows:

Kill mobs in different parts of the instanced DemiPlane of Life to collect between 1 and 5 of 3 different items that the quest-giver wants to stock his shop, evidently. The drop rate is rather low, probably around 20%. The worst thing is the "drop zones" are rather imprecise. The game text mentions parts of the city which do not appear on the in-game map and the walk-thru on EQResource, which is about the best we have so far, is incomplete and not entirely accurate. Like the task step to acquire items of clothing from the NPCs in the theater. Well, I cleared the ENTIRE theater, audience AND stage and got only 2 of the 3 I needed. Fearing I was working on a bugged mission I moved "upstairs" in a building which did not really appear to be part of the theater. Killing there I acquired all 4 of the drops from a DIFFERENT step which ostensibly are supposed to fall in the SOUTHWEST section of the zone. (This upstairs area is distinctly NOT southwest.) Still needing one theater drop, I reasoned that since the theater is accessed from "the pit" (a name which appears nowhere on the map or the in-game mission guide, but is so described on EQResource) I would just slaughter any mobs in the pit---essentially anything below ground level---and sure enough on the 4th kill I got my last drop.

Once you get all the drops you have to return to the quest-giver (his instanced persona) and turn them all. Be forewarned, however, when you do so the named mob whose death is required by the last step spawns immediately. He spawns and attacks the quest-giver, both of whom are ON THE EVAC SPOT. So if you do what I did, send one toon to do the turn-in and then evac the rest of the group to move them there you will be in combat immediately upon touchdown.

4 AA's the reward for completing this, and that's with LotD ON. I should have turned LotD during the mission and skipped having it up for the final turn-in. Mobs give 40-50% of an AA of XP with no XP enhancement and since you have to kill probably 30-50 mobs to get all the drops, you can expect to earn a lot more AAXP's from this slaughtering than from completion. Which is a 360-degree reversal of what EQ was doing with HA's prior to this xpac. Weird, that...

We got the in-game notification that 4 "shining lights" (collectibles) had spawned. Now, after spending 2 hours doing this mission (albeit longer than it could have been, but I was watching Game of Thrones at the same time) I wasn't about to try to locate the 4 tiny needles in this ridiculously gigantic and convoluted haystack of a zone. Not to mention there are see-thru-all-invis mobs scattered hither and thither throughout. And I'm still trying to figure out how the tunnels and corridors all work. Since people craving progression will need to do this mission SIX times I'll bank that collectibles will appear in the Bazaar, and hopefully at reasonable prices.

5 more times for this mission.... somehow I doubt I'm going to be up for that "challenge." It's not really a challenge... just a timesink. I have a feeling DBG has designed this expansion as a giant timesink, with mission repetition requirements and hugely expensive AA's in order to keep even the most dedicated players on the treadmill until the next xpac. But stuff like this feels like makework. Instead of designing 24 distinct missions, they just build 4 and force you do them 6x each. It's fun to do 24 different missions, particularly with a generous reward at the end, like was the case with TDS. But this timesink burden doesn't have close to the same good feeling.

I believe the 24 missions have to be completed to meet the requirement to request certain raids. So some GL is going to be assigning some raiders to this grind, you betcha. The day those assignments are made might be a good day for a raider to have RL commitments keeping him off-line. If you get my drift. Smiley: sly
