Bracers of the Reverent  

Zahal does still trigger Regis...
In the normal course of time Zahal will spawn and, if left alone, will aggro random NPCs and die, this causes Regis to spawn which is why sometimes you see Regis up and never see Zahal. Also the famous werewolf hunting gang that roams the N zone line can aggro and kill Regis thus resetting the cycle.

Your goal is to intercede in this cycle and loot Regis. Optionally you can hunt for Zahal and kill him to force Regis but this is a waste IMO since he will either die on his own or be killed by a player without you doing anything. My method is to simply wait for or check for Regis at the north zone line, there is a /loc in this thread somewhere but basically he's up on the n zone line in a mix of about 4 trees that are a little east of the withered treant spawn (not the xani-whatever named treant.) To get bracers for my cleric alt I camped my mage up on the zone line within sight of the trees where Regis spawns and then played an alt, logging my mage each time I logged in and out of EQ until I found Regis up. To get a bracer for my cleric friend I just checked track with my bard each time I passed through NK until I found either Regis or Zahal up.

Also as stated in this thread the werewolf hunters who roam the n zone line and the treants are KOS to evil races, as I never tried for Regis with an evil character I don't have much advice except that the withered treant is a level 50 druid mob and xani-whatsisname is red at 51 but they don't roam while the werewolf hunters are a mix of mid 30s caster/melee/pet classes that occasionally wander the n zone line and will eventually cross Regis' spawn and sometimes even kill him.

As for the quest, yea there are other wis bracers in the game but for the level to do this quest these are the best ones IMO unless you REALLY can't afford the weight because what they say is true, AC IS king.

i guess i need it spelled out for me how do i use the icon or turn in the plat ingot and icon i could really use some help on this

What kind of faction will i need with the questgiver, warmly kindly ally or is Indifferent enough?

I stayed up late to camp Zahal. I sit there from 2:30 A.M. to around 4:30 A.M. About every minute or so I cast sense the dead. Zarhal comes up, and throws me off, even though I'm ready for him. I cast enstill, panic the dead, sermon of the rightoues on him. No problems there. Expel undead hits once or twice. Enstill breaks and he comes and melees me to death, him resisting every spell I try and cast after that. I leave him at 1/4 health.

I was planning on getting my corpse and leaving, but a druid had finished of Zahal. So I gate back to the Regis spawn, and try to kill him. I screwed up my mouse by putting it on invert, and bounce, so I can't see him and he beats me to half life until I can finally click on him. I would have had him, but he kept healing, so I die again. I spawn at bind and keep nuking him, I die again. I spawn once again and he's at 1/10th health, I nuke him, and for once I'm the one doing the killing.

Cost me 7 blues of exp to get the stuff, but over all I'm happy. I was level 34(now 33), and I had a tough time killing Zahal, due to resists, so I suggest you be a bit higher before you try.

Killing Regis is about as easy (and fun) as killing Kathy Lee. The problem is those goody-twoshoes NPCs Nibs Aleswiller and his sidekicks. Good races complain about them KSing Regis. We Darkies have to worry about them killing US. My DEF cleric 40 was slain PDQ by Nibs and his poisonous blade. Hard to get roots, gate etc. off when getting pounded. DA no help that far from zone. In a subsequent attempt- I barely made it to EK zone alive. The previous poster is correct, Aleswiller has a HUGE aggro radius, and he likes us as much as werewolves/undead.

Moral of the story, get a tank to help you if you can in case these punks show up.

I was passing through the karanas last night, and while in NK, noticed the zone was nearly empty. Cast sense the dead to see if regis or zahal were up. It targets regis the reverent. I shout to see if anyone is camping him, and they are not. I head up the hill east of his spawn point (to avoid the werewolf hunters), and cast expel undead to pull him. Plan to follow with a stun, then root. Spell hits for full 264 damage, and I cast my stun, which hits for full 75 and stuns him. Then I notice he is still running toward me. Well, one of him is, because for some bizarre reason, I got a double spawn. Anyway, I had the one I already cast on stunned, but the other interrupted my root, so I got both of them meleeing on me. I got one down to 20 life, and was at 3 bubbles myself, so I figured I was gonna at least be able to kill one, divine aura, loot, and then run (had sow). Well, the healthy regis healed the other one up to about 70% life, and I decided to run. They followed me toward the EK zone, but stopped when I zoned. When I came back in, after medding and healing, they were still sitting there. I couldn't take both, so figured i would split them up, zone again, and hope they sat still after I zoned again. I creep up to max spell range, root one, and head straight for the zone. after zoning out and back in, I find the one I did not root right at the edge of the bridge, I root him, and Expel repeatedly. He cast smite several times, which I partially or fully resisted each time (mr at 80 with buffs). He died, I looted the items, then sat and medded up. Get to full mana, and shoot over to where I rooted the other. Still there, so repeat the root, expel. Stun whenever root breaks, and then reroot. Killed him too. by this time there are 13 people in the zone, so I shout for a cleric. Only one in zone is lvl 51, and doesn't need, but decides to take the items anyway when he finds that they are rotting.

BTW, This was with a lvl 35 cleric. Regis is cake for me at this level, unless something bizarre like this happens. Has anyone else ever gotten a double regis spawn?

I feel like a complete idiot but must ask -- now that I have all the stuff: the enchanted platinum bars, the icon...WHAT DO I DO WITH THEM???? I can't find in the quest description how these items become the bracer.

BTW -- Went looking for Zahal, prepared to wait four hours, and found him WITH the flute in just five minutes. Hehe...just had to gloat about that a bit. Still need an answer to the question, please.

And, thanks.

I killed Regis twice yesterday within an hour. Killing the undead at the monolith seemed to spawn him... sometimes. Happened for me 2 times in an hour, of course that could've been really lucky.

Neither time did Zahal spawn first (or if he did, he died before I could find him on my Ranger's 51 tracking or my with Cleric's Sense Undead).

I think Zehal might not spawn anymore. I used to see him from time to time while running through NK or hunting there, but not lately.

To do the quest will I require good gypsy faction?Because the majority are dubious to my DE clr.

Maybe im reading the spoiler wrong but i dont see where the Ingot comes from, can anyone point th sout to me? thanks.

Well to start off, Zahal spawns in 2 spots, one is by the gypsy camp and the other, is at the loc that is mention in the quest (location - 1800, 200). I haven't seen him spawn at the undead camp and I camped him 2 days straight, but I wouldn't put it past him. From what I noticed, Regis will spawn not matter who kills Zahal (even if the guards kill him), so don't waste the mana trying to kill Zahal. Also, Zahal's spawn timer is very close to 4.5 hours, but showing up 30 min early wouldn't hurt.
Regis's spawn loc is correct. I would suggest having another caster there to help deal out damage, but if you attempt to solo him, wait until around 34.
If you do solo, be prepared, and have full mana before he spawns, waiting to med when he has already spawned, will only allow the npc's to ks you. Attack Regis right away, get his helth to half way down, then fear, stun, nuke, repeat. If you're lucky, he won't run into some other npc (like the named treant that hangs around the area), that's why you stun him. Fearing him will keep him from healing himself.

Finally finished the darn thing today. Must admit most cleric quest armor is easy aside from a freakin' spawn you have to wait for, in this case, Zahal the Vile. I'm a 52 ranger with 198 tracking skill, so it pretty much covers the entire zone and with /tracksort set at normal, the tracklist shows the most recent spawns on top of the list.

With this in mind, I parked myself in the North part of the zone, just North of the gypsy camp where I was told he usually hung out by some shakily reliable source. From there, I started chacking track every minute or so. After about an hour and a half, there he was, finally, Zahal the Vile. I ran right to him and was very surprised to find him at the druid ring, the lil bugger spawns at the undead ruins, and not in the North part of the zone as I had been informed, he does head there after a while however, but if you want to make sure to get your paws on him first, I'd recommend parking your behind at the ruins instead.

The rest of the quest is easy, I hope this proves helpful to some.

This quest walkthrough is great. But there is one thing missing...

What is the location of Lianna Ferasa? I'd post it myself but I'm still trying to get the last component for the quest from Lianna.

Trust me =P This would be very usefull information for us DE clerics.

So far, My attempts at finding Lianna In Rathe Mnts. has gone something like this...

1. Approach a hut.
2. Swing door open.
3. Scream "OMG! That's not her!!!"
4. Run like hell to the zone.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 on the next hut.
