Didn't finish the Part 2 series, as Maricella Slithra refuses to drop her item (Ancient Ornate Combine Dagger). All other dropped items were usually in the first kill, but a few mobs took more than one kill to get the item.
EDIT: Noticed some order problem, fixed it.

This quest is horrible...Do not give 1k for each purchased item. 100pp will get you the item you need from each vendor. If you give 1000pp you will lose your coin and not get your item. Trust me I did this quest and the Npc says they can't sell for less than 1000pp. Just give them the 100pp and youll get your item. Make sure to tell them that you want to purchase a XXX whatever items name is. Good luck.
It is not 1k PP you are supposed to give the NPC, it is 1k GP which is the same as 100pp just to clarify

I'd like to know where people are getting 5-10 hour completion times for this quest. Marci drops the dagger usually at a rate of 1 in 3 kills, on a bad day. It is rather rare for Flerdo NOT to have the signet, and Ebben has always dropped the medal for me. So, start in Shadowhaven with the purchased portrait. Run over (1 zone away) to Paludal Caverns and kill Marci, then zone back to Shadowhaven. Go, by way of Echo Caverns, to Fungus Grove. Kill Ebben. Zone into Twilight and kill Flerdo. Now, you have all the components and should be staring at the Katta zone. This quest takes 20-30 minutes, INCLUDING TRAVEL TIME...1 hour tops if you need to wait on respawn. This quest wouldn't take 5-10 hours if you were snared, encumbered, and walking the whole way.

I looted Dagger from Maricella accidently after maybe 5 or 6 kills (I was killing her for exp) and then went for other items of quest with help of higher lvl friend. Purchased portrait, killed Ebben and he had medal with him.
Then we went for Fierdo. We have now killed him three times but no signet so far. So Fierdo's signet seems to be rearer loot that other quest items but it might just be my bad luck. Is there any lvl cap or lvl required to get the signet from Fierdo?

Has anyone actually aquired this sword? I'm very curious to know because in the description it says not dropping. So, I'm just checking things out!!
Also, if anyone does have it, would they be willing to sell it?

The Long Sword of Ethereal Energy is the old reward for the Raien Taliker quest. Shortly after Luclin was released the risk vs. reward aspect of the quest was re-evaluated and the reward nerfed. The Scimitar of Ethereal Energy is the current reward for completion of this quest.

Communisim is actualy the best for of government...just human nature is to take all, leave nothing (as our world is showing the "tale-tale" signs). Verant does care how it effects the EQ economy; because if it didn't make since, and wasn't fun and enjoyable, not many would invest their time and money into this game.
Most of the designers are gamers just like you an me, and i'm sure most have characters twinked beyond belief, and others who could, but don't twink...BUT, it's not very enjoyable when the there is "ONE-UNIVERSAL" best weapon...in a game like this, you can't have a "best" weapon....the reason EQ is so successful is beacause they have always left opertunities to improve your char, to get better, to advance, and to get new equipment.
Now this item, i don't feel is "dragon" worthy; but pretty close...so verant fixed it, and if you want to do something about it; they do have e-mail address which i've used from time to time, and have "ACTUALY" gotten responces to...They are one of the best consumer friendly companies out there; so instead of yelling at each other, which will have no effect on the outcome of this sword...why don't you just ask them if something can be done lol.

How long had you been playing EQ when you wrote that? SoE (not verant btw) definitly does not have one of the best customer support services, in fact its entirly opposite. They provide their GM's with so many rules and restrictions that they arnt even allowed to help players anymore unless it falls under certain criteria.
The fact that they would even create a server that you have to pay more then twice as much to play on, and its exclusive to actual content is sick, so instead of taking time to develop the game so they can hold similar events on all servers at once they decided to make an elite server for the "Special" people who have lots of green to throw to them.
I have been playing EQ for 4 years now, and through that experience I have come to understand its not the GM's who are the bastards (regardless of everyones opinions) its SoE's rules implied upon them that limit them from doing what they are put there to do, help players.

Ok just some help for you guys doing this quest:
Aeridia Family Signet Ring and Ancient Ceremonial Warhammer drop from the same type mobs in Marus Seru. Recuso Smugglers. They do not always drop, but aren't absolutely super rare. As for where they spawn. They don't spawn IN the recuso camp, they spawn away from the camp against the far west wall. There is one regular Recuso that spawns with a group of 3 Recuso Smugglers. The smugglers are static spawns but the regular recuso will spawn and walk between the camp and the smuggler spawns. So again the recuso SMUGGLERS drop these two items and they spawn straight west of the camp against the zone wall (-1000, 1500).
Mark Blotter, Pietro Guiccini (he is by the bank in the casters guild in SH in the INN there NOT the OTHER 2 banks in SH by the nexus zone and by the Paladin/Cleric guild), and Alchemist Hikel:
To buy the items from each of these you do NOT have to be amiable. I conned from apprehensive to indifferent to get them. You do NOT buy them by clicking on them as the items are NOT in their inventories. Just give them 100pp or 1000gp it doesn't matter which I have done both and they will give you the items you seek.
Also the items dropped in Fungus Grove. All three of the mobs are by each other. No guards or other npc's will help but they will help each other so don't fight or pull one near the other or you will get both. Like the drops in Twilight Sea, these mobs ALWAYS drop the quest items. They are all MELEE ONLY no casters (if I remember right) Same with the mobs in Twilight Sea.
In Twilight Sea the 3 quest mobs never helped each other out when I fought them. One was blue and the others Light Blue. I will test it again to make sure.

I had recently took up this quest, LSoEE or SoEE, didn't matter to me. So I quickly got the Combine Dagger, the portrait, and the medal. I went to Twilight and was seeking help from someone to dispatch of the halfling fellow. We got him down, and when I tried to loot him, all I got was coin. I was very disappointed, since I've been trying to conceive of a way to single pull or somehow take on the three by my lonesome. Tough as hell for a 32 ( was 33 ) SK....so to update, they do not always drop the quest item, at least not in Twilight.

So does anyone know how to get the Long sword if it's still possible somehow? Maybe a 4rth quest?
The LSoEE has been removed from the game as a reward for doing any of these quests. Those already gotten before it's removal are still available for sale in the bazaar at times. It was replaced by the Scimitar of Ethereal Energy.

Posted: Aug 01 2002 at 6:17 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) the LoEE was better than the SoEE WAY BETTER
36 posts
Even though the LSoEE is a better weapon than the scimitar, with the difficulty of this quest it is still a good item. Gonna go through a quick run through of how I did. First I went to FG to kill Ebben, he is 40 war, con'd even so i figured i give him a try. He hit me upward of 110, usually hit in 80's but he hits fast. I simply asked for one of the 40 lvl 60's in there to give me a hand which one did, I've found higher lvl chars are more than willing to help ppl, if only to show their superiority. Then I went to SH to buy portrait, Guccini is near the Mage/Monk trainer upstairs to the left in the second room. Then went to PC and got Dagger from Maricella on first try, lucky me. Ran to twilight to find Flerdo, conned dk blue to me at 40. There are two other NPC's there which carry items for the other weapons. Just cast harmony and he single's easy and dies pretty quickly. Then go to Yurddle hand in the four items and he handed me the dagger and ring back, plus a crate "Talikar's Remains". He tells you to hand the crate to the ghost of Talikar which spawns right next to him. This quest took me about 3 hours to do, it's not the LSoEE but still a good item for time and effort put into it.

Ok, forgive the ignorance, but after tracking every town but shar vahl in luclin 3 or 4 times, I still cant find Ebben....what town is he in?

He's in fungus grove, in the outpost there. He's inside the bar sitting at a table, half elf in chainmail.

Dropped off Flerdo Brigged. I'm assuming it can drop off any of the 3 standing there.

He's the only one that drops the ring, the other two drop items for the other two weapons.

Actually not all lore items are quest items. An item may be lore to prevent you from having more than one at a time. For instance you cannot have more than one Heros Bracer at a time because they are lore.

Just to clear my own mind up. All lore items are quest items right? So is it possible, or maybe im missing it, that these three things turn into something bigger? They are all lore. Hmm just a thought I suppose.

The answer to these nerfing issues is so easy, I just don't understand why Verant doesn't do this:
Give players one week to sell their "farmed" item, once percieved to be overpowered. They can announce on their MOTD that the item is going to be changed to NO DROP at a specific time. No excuses for not dealing with it. This will serve two purposes. First, it is assumed that Verant has decided that players are making too much game money off farming the item. Rather than drive the prices UP on the item (as removing the item from the game entirely does), the players will be in more of a rush to clear multiple or unusable items out of their inventories, thus helping (if only a bit) to keep prices on the existing items DOWN until it's all over. Second, if the weapons are NO DROP, their effect on gameplay is minimal. If they are so unbelievably powerful, then they are obviously going to help that ONE character level faster, minimizing its "contact" on the game world. For instance lets say the Warrior breastplate from plane X has far too many stats to it, but it's no drop. By the time plane Y (read: tougher than plane X) is opened to gameplay, the problem is fixed. Oh sure, we'll have the typical "Hey! why did warriors only get a bp with 5 more ac on it than their last plane bp?" comments, but as characters progress, the items are neutralized. I know players who have destroyed their whole Hate armor set. If this sword is so uber, it will only hurry its owner to a better (ToV presumably ) weapon, and then who cares? Not me. Leave it in the game.....make the quest a bit harder if you like...but leave the item in the game. How hard would it have been for Verant to change the quest to include new quest components, but still accept previously gotten components for the old reward? Cummon, Verant..........<------makes irritated fidgety movements.

From the beginning when this quest was solved it was a candidate for a BIG Nerf. This sword is awesome + the quest was SOOOOO EASY. I camped the dagger a bit more than 5 hours plus killing these EASY Kills makes around 6 hours for this REALY AWESOME Weapon.
Only thing Verant was able to do would have been
1.) to make it noDrop and let it drop off a dragon like Mob (Price would be 0pp then cause NoDrop just as add). A Weapon with up to 21/29 plus Ac and stats is really Dragon Drop worth
result: Uberguilds have a chance to get it and none other.
2.) Nerf all existing LSoEE (e.g. LSoEE gets stats of the Scimitar you get now)
result: Many people CAMPED for this Sword... plus waiting for the Campspot to get (plus this my camping rounds up to around 10-12 hours) Does anyone want these People who camped and invested that much time to have quasi no reward... If anyone thinks this is the best option, I beg you get a Single PLayer Item Nerf on you :-p
3.) Existing solution, Remove the item as quest reward.
result: You still "can" purchase it and the price is worth the item (not now, but in a few months the price will go down, as new weapons from Luclin will be discovered which are the same class or even better) LSoEE is still obtainable for everyone (trade) and the peeps who camped it still have their item.
Well, I think 3rd one was the best solution. Sure, they should have announced it, but this would have resulted in a masacre and a KS-Wave at the dagger Mob.
I still think it was the best solution to balance this item. It was crazy to make a defenetly 55+ Weapon obtainable for 30s.

Don't be a jackass.
Driving the price of the LSoEE is EXACTLY what needs to be done. It is clearly of that calibre.
What better way to deal with a KILLER item selling for dirt cheap than to no longer have that item be created by the server. Basic econ 101. Scarcity and value dictate price. It HAD the value before, but due to lack of scarcity, the price was unbalanced. How do you cure that? Rather than punish those who saw a wonderful weapon and went for it, they just made it so that further farming was not possible so that scarcity would rise and increase price to reflect the true market value of this sword.
What else does this do? Sure as hell helps out some other weapon sales. Now they just need to nerf down the drops of Centi Longswords and Centi Shortswords.

Shame you have to go there.....it just seems that we have different goals....you apparently think the world economy should be the primary focus of EQ, whereas I think it should be supplemental to adventuring. Basic econ 101 doesn't come into play if the item is unsellable, as I advocate. You think the guy who farmed 5 of these is getting ripped off if he's given a week to sell them? It's already been agreed upon by almost everyone that it was too easy to get for the weapons stats. AS to the weapon's caliber....any lvl 55+ using it needs to get to work on skills other than wheeling and dealing farmed items in Greater Faydark. Since this weapon will realistically be more valuable than a buyable epic would be, it might sell for as much as 100k in your world. Now...what is more fair?...the guy who hogged the spawns to get 5 of these on his twinks before they nerfed it now gets to have 500k in the bank, or future players have a chance to get ONE? Mind you, I don't hate farming...we all do it...but it shouldn't be the only lucrative tactic in the game. I think someone wants his 10k item to go up ten times in value by no effort on his part...sound about right?
Well to be honest with you, some of what you say makes sense. But what would you have them do? Make them NO DROP but continue to let the quest go on? How is that going to make things any better?
Here is my point in a nutshell. You had a 16/29 15ac sword selling for 4k yes that's right I saw them for 4 flipping k on my server. What does that do to the economy?? Every other sword previously thought good drops dramatically in price. Sure some folks are getting rich now from having farmed this thing, but that's the way the **** hits the fan. Were you even playing when Rubicite stopped dropping? The next day...25k for Rubicite BP. Is it fair? Maybe not, but people paid it. The fact of business is something of this caliber should not be as easy as it was to obtain. Level 30s were camping this item as well as 50+.
And what of making it NO DROP? Other swords might stabilize a little bit, but the rarity and quality of this weapon will surely do a much better job of that. If you want to pick a culprit for need of NO DROP, go ***** about centi longswords and shortswords. Those should have been NO DROP from the beginning.
And furthermore, I have only ONE of these items. Yes ONE. I camped the stupid NPC in Paludal for 7 solid hours to get that stupid dagger, so don't even think I didn't earn mine. And if you think "someone wants his 10k item to go up ten times in value by no effort on his part..." then you can jump in the river, cause my warrior will use this item til he's 55+ more than likely.
I think the real issue at hand here is the fact that you didn't finish the quest in time and you've decided to ***** to any and all who will listen.

this weapon is for sell on my server (TM) for about 20k atm, this is an awesome sword and should be made just nodrop. who cares about the little twinks that run around with them
I think no drop is the dumbest thing in the game... somehow the npc was able to give it to you but you magically cant drop it... :-p anyhow... makeing it no drop would be stupid... yer just jellous couse you dont have one.
