Wizard Epic 1.5 Pre-Quest
| Quest Started By: | Description: | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
This flags you to start the quest for the epic 1.5 if you don't have the The Staff of the Four (epic 1.0).
The Start Find Talwyn Flamecaller, a High Elf at location +2182, -1042, +332 in the Lavastorm Mountains. He's NW of the shadowmen. Or just follow the zone wall SE when you zone out of Lavaspinner zone tunnel and then start looking to the west. You say, 'Hail, Talwyn Flamecaller' Talwyn Flamecaller says 'The fire of destruction burns within you, does it not? I can see that your affinity for destructive magic has served you well in your travels. It has served you so well that it has caught the eye of Solusek Ro. He has created and sent me here to discuss the matter of joining his legions. If you do, you will be granted power unheard of on mortal lands. What say you?' You say, 'I agree.' Talwyn Flamecaller says 'I knew you would. . . What wizard could refuse an offer of such power? Since you have proven yourself only through combat and not yet through adventuring, I require you to prove yourself worthy once more. A small set of tests, really.' You say, 'What tests?' Talwyn Flamecaller says 'The tests I require of you are merely to measure your ability as a wizard and follower of Solusek. They will draw upon the focal points of being a wizard. Through intelligence and its application to magic, you can call upon the elements more often without strain. Through subtlety, you are able to be destructive without calling the attention unto yourself. Through research, new, more powerful spells and incantations are discovered. Through channeling, the ability to concentrate on spells is enhanced, even in the most distracting of environments. Once you have completed these tests, return to me with the results, so that I may review them.' Test of Intelligence You say, 'I am ready for the test of intelligence.' Talwyn Flamecaller says 'Through the intelligent use of magic, we are able to become more efficient at what we do. To prove to me that you have this gift, I will need you to work your way through a set of riddles. These riddles will take you full circle, beginning with me and ending with me. The path between those two points must be discovered by your own mettle. Take this note and do as it instructs. Take care when handling these notes, they are the lifeblood that will guide you on your journey and should you lose them, you will fail the test. I hope to see you back here with the correct answer soon.' Find the following 10 items: Old Pipe (Dagnor's Cauldron: -864, -914 [lake floor]) Worn Turban (Plane of Tranquility: Fished) Red Cloth (Maiden's Eye: -31, -713 [fire pit]) Platinum Token (Plane of Justice: +267, -174) Ivory Bone (Gulf of Gunthak: -34, -513 [on sunken ship]) White Sash (Mons Letalis: +24, +624, +207) Empty Jug (Katta Castellum: -250, -1050 [table in bar]) Emerald-tipped Staff (Gorge of King Xorbb: +220, -1165) Golden Dagger (Skyfire Mountains) Meditation Basket (Warsliks Woods - tunnels leading to Dalnir) Talwyn Flamecaller says 'Excellent work, _____! There was once a time when I thought these puzzles could not be solved, but through perseverance and knowledge, you have passed the test of intelligence.' Receive Rune of Greater Desiccation. Test of Channeling You say, 'I am ready for the test of channeling.' Talwyn Flamecaller says 'In the fortress of the Sarnak, amidst some old bones, you will find a small, cursed trinket that I require you to obtain. I say that it is cursed because any that try to take it are surrounded in a swarm of scorpions. The scorpions are small and not dangerous by themselves, but when a hundred of them engulf your body, you can't stand but to run away. With your proficiency in channeling, you must go and retrieve this trinket for me.' Head to the Lake of Ill Omen and go to the Sarnak Fortress and into the room with Chancellor Of Di`Zok. Kill the skeleton on the table to spawn several scorpions (green, easy kills for a 65). One of them will drop a Cursed Talisman. Bring it back to Talwyn. Talwyn Flamecaller says 'Your speed and concentration impress even me. The Test of Channeling is no easy feat to accomplish, especially with so many dangerous distractions nearby.' He then gives you the Talisman back. Test of Research You say, 'I am ready for the test of research.' Talwyn Flamecaller says 'Our ranks simply cannot be filled with slouches! We need to know that you will take the time and effort to be an effective wizard, not only for your own preservation, but also to be a contributor to our cause. You will be required to create a new spell. The research will be difficult, the runes many, but through cascade, coruscation, flash, desiccation, glint, impulse, synergy, tempest, vortex, and conflagration, you will find the path that burns deep within you. When you have crafted the spell, return it to me so that I may inspect it.' The Runes of Cascade, Flash, Glint, Impulse, Synergy, Tempest, and Vortex are common mid-to-high level drops. They are droppable and can likely be found on vendors or in the Bazaar. The 8th rune is the Rune of Coruscation is a no drop rune. Confirmed drops: A Sambata Tribal Advisor in Dawnshroud, Hynid Howler in Kodtaz, Pulsating Pool of Magma in Solusek C, high risk LDONs. The 9th rune is the Rune of Greater Conflagration, which has been known to drop during high risk LDONs and off Shar Vinitras in Akheva. The final rune is one you'll already have: The Rune of Greater Desiccation received previously. Combine the runes in a lexicon to get a Spell: Electrical Charge, required skill 190. It has ten charges of Electrical Charge. Hand this spell to Talwyn. Talwyn Flamecaller says, 'The test of research wears thin upon you, but with this parchment I hold in my hand, you have proven your worth as a contributor to the cause.' You will receive the spell scroll back. Test of Subtlety You say, 'I am ready for the test of subtlety' Talwyn Flamecaller says 'In Steamfont you will find a friend of mine, Yama Twerik, with a bit of a dilemma on his hands. He was able to bring a non-functional clockwork back to Ak`Anon from the Plane of Innovation. He is by no means a wizard, so he needs help recharging the battery of the clockwork to get it working again. Go see, he will discuss with you the details of his predicament.' Find Yama Twerik in Steamfont at location +1260, -1760 outside the minotaur caves. You say, 'Hail, Yama Twerik' Yama Twerik says 'Just in time! Talwyn said he might be sending me someone to help me with this particular predicament. You see I need help with this guy here, his battery has gone dry and we cannot find a way to recharge it. We think the clockworks of innovation are powered through some kind of magical energy, different from what is stored in normal batteries. I would like you to use your best electrical magic to try and resurrect his battery.' You say, 'I will resurrect his battery.' Yama Twerik says 'Ok good, but here is the thing, we have to be really careful. I don't want to overcharge the battery, and you will have to cast on it while I am holding the correct wires together. If you don't do it at the right time you will either fry me, or it will be a waste and we will have to start completely over. Let me know when you have cleared your mind and regained your magical strength, and are ready to start.' You say, 'I am ready.' Yama Twerik says 'Excellent, then I shall begin performing my work.' Yama Twerik says 'Stay sharp, young wizard, I will give you cue to begin to infuse this creation with your magics. Take care to put just the right amount of effort into the spell, otherwise we may overcharge the battery, or you might cause me harm. If you miss your cue, it will be a waste and we would have to start over.' Follow Yama.. Yama Twerik says 'I'm almost ready for you to make the first charge. . . Just another second. . . Ok, wizard, give it your best shot.' Click your Spell: Electrical Charge. Inactive clockwork feels static energy spark over them. Yama Twerik says 'Wonderful, I knew this would work. C'mon, let's see what we can do here.' Yama Twerik turns some bolts and twists some wires before saying, 'Alright, give it another shot.' Click the spell again. Inactive clockwork feels static energy spark over them. Yama Twerik says 'Great, this appears to be working, I can barely contain my excitement' Yama Twerik grabs a new wire and attaches it to a small bundle of wires inside the clockwork. After several seconds of making some modifications he says, 'This looks to be working, a couple more blasts like that and we'll be up and running in no time! Go ahead and give me a good, solid charge.' Click the spell. Inactive clockwork feels static energy spark over them. Yama Twerik says 'This should be the last one, wizard. Put everything you�ve got into this one and lets see what happens!' Click the spell again. Inactive clockwork feels static energy spark over them. Yama Twerik says 'I appreciate your help there, young wizard. Send Talwyn my thanks for sending such a capable young recruit to help me out here.' Head back to Talwyn Flamecaller. You say, 'Hail, Talwyn Flamecaller' Talwyn Flamecaller says 'You have completed the four tests of your abilities, but your journey to joining Solusek's legion is far from complete. You must now assemble a wand to help further focus your energies. In the lands of Discord, power surges and fades in an awesome display, the fluxing power flows through all things on the landscape. Go, investigate the lands of Discord; return to me with a fluxing rod, gem, rune, and ore. With them you will be ready to take your first steps as a new soldier.' You've completed the pre-quest. You can now go on to your Epic 1.5 quest. Need logs of all dialogues (these are transcriptions). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The reason why people are spending "days" in Veksar is because only 2 of the 7 runes actually drop there (Flash and Cascade). The rest you can find in Vxed. Pay attention to level ranges so you're not "those guys" and it will take you a couple hours tops.
Kind of a PITA.
He's way up in the northeast on top of a mountain. You have to run up and down to find him.
He's NW of the shadowmen. Or just follow the zone wall SE when you zone out of Lavaspinner zone tunnel and then start looking to the west.

I don't see it posted elsewhere here, so I'll give the final dialogue with Talwyn in its entirety:
You say, 'Hail, Talwyn Flamecaller'
Talwyn Flamecaller says 'You have completed the four tests of your abilities, but your journey to joining Solusek's legion is far from complete.

It's not really necessary to the quest write up, but it's nice for completeness. There is no indication, btw, that you've received a character flag.
The most tedious part of this entire thing was raising research skill to 190 for the rune combine. I'd been saving up mats, but I ran out of those and ran Bazaar dry before I got those last few skill ups and had to go farm more.

I camped Veksar for a few days, to only have two of the 7 tradable runes drop over and over. Decided to do Vxed, and had 4 different runes, all ones needed for this pre-quest, drop. Vxed repops too. So I went through it completely once, then just started back around for a 2nd lap to get my last tradable rune, and it dropped. I feel like this was the easiest way to collect the runes. GL!
Few things I learned while doing this pre-quest:
1. This pre-quest will take you longer than the 1.5+2.0 combined (yeah if you get past this part you are pretty much there, as long as you can get help with the raid fights. Nowadays they are all pretty much soloable if you have a high level friend. I've been doing these old epic raid fights with my bard since around 90, and never really had any problems)
2. For research skill-ups I started with making Oil of Vitrol and then moved on to Aqua Fortis. That gets you to 102 research skill. After that I moved on to Enchanted Spell Parchment recipes. Those are pretty easy since everything is vendor-bought except for the powders: either farm those or check the bazaar. Low level ones are pretty easy to come by, but once you get to binding powder/intricate binding powder and higher these things get pretty rare. I went through 5-6 stacks of intricate to get from 100-190 skill. This is literally the biggest time-sink of the whole epic right here...
3. The runes were pretty easy: just go to Veksar and kill for awhile. Rune of Greater Conflaguration was pretty easy too, but might want to bring a friend to help with that guy in Akheva Ruins (assuming you are doing this at a lower level). The worst part for me was farming the hard LDoNs for Rune of Coruscation: that one took me about 5-6 clears to get one. The killing itself was easy, especially with mercs. The hard part was finding the right characters to get the right level dungeon. You need 3 characters minimum to get a LDoN mission, and mercs don't count. They also need to be within 5-6 levels of each other.
4. Honestly, as it's been said before... you really should consider just doing the 1.0 quest. This quest was really quite painful (and I've done alot of epics in my time).
If you get past this part, congratulations you pretty much have your epic 2.0 already. It literally took me a week to do my pre-quest and the 1.5/2.0 combined took me maybe 2 hours if that. I already had an anguish orb but even if you have to go get one it's really no big deal anymore.

Just do the 1.0 its faster and cheaper. This pre-quest will cost 50k in Research skill ups. Numerous Veksar runs I am currently at 20 or so and still have 3 runes to go.
Or you can shell out 2k and do 3 fights for the 1.0. But you have to wait for phinny and VS to be up only problem.

I got every rune except for cascade and vortex in Veksar. I just trained the zone over and over till they dropped. I was working on getting LDoN points around the same time for the dodge aug and I did get a couple runes to drop in Everfrost but most of them were not the ones needed for this prequest. On the advice of some of the comments below and in the rune entries I did a few dozen Takish, Rujarkian, and Mistmoore LDoNs in the hopes of seeing them drop. I saw 3 runes of coruscation in Mistmoore, and one rune of vortex in Takish. But I saw none of the other runes in those zones. In the 8 runs I did in Miragul's Menagerie I only saw vortex over and over.
Finally after almost giving up on getting all the runes I got the last 3 I needed in Veksar. The rarest for me by far was Rune of Synergy which I finally got off of one of the undead monk mobs in the arena area in Veksar.

I used a spell research kit to do the combine. A lexicon and the sorcerers lexicon don't seem to have buttons to do the combine with.
Spell research Kit can be bought in POK from Eric Rasumus for 10pp.
Make sure you have the right runes. There are 10 total.
The 8th rune is the Rune of Coruscation is a no drop rune. One of the confirmed drops: A Sambata Tribal Advisor in Dawnshroud (this guy is in the back of the caves on the left, but remember, the sambata tribe only comes out at night. Just kill those rockhopper placeholders for awhile and the Sambata tribe spawns will eventually spawn.

Test of Subtlety
Don't worry too much if you mess up. It took me several tries to get this part right. IF your scroll runs out, you can get another.
You will want to target the inactive clockwork during the test of subtlety. Make sure you have a clear line of sight, the pillar can get in the way.
When Yama gives the proper emote, click on the scroll of electric charge.
Rumor has it that if you run out of charges on the scroll you can go back to the quest giver in Lavastorm with the scroll in hand (on your pointer), hail him, and he will refill it for you or something to that effect.
Also, it says above to follow Yama. Instead just wait at the entrance of the cave, when he comes back and bends down, get ready to click. Careful on the emotes, one or two will just be compliments and not requests for scroll clicks. If you fail, Yama resets in a few minutes.
Finally, watch your spelling when requesting this event, subTlety and resurrection are both easily misspelled.

Is this bugged? I have all the runes but when I combine in spell research kit I get the msg. "can not combine in this container type." The lexicon and sorcerer's lexicon doesn't have a combine button since research revamp. I also went to lake of ill omen and killed the skellie on the table but no scorpion's popped. What's up with the 1.5 prequest?
All of the spawn locations listed are *possible* locations. If you've gotten to the exact loc and the item isn't there, start looking in ever-widening circles from that spot. Eventually you'll find it (although the alternate locations listed in these posts can be helpful too). Note that they won't always spawn on the ground; the Pipe spawned for me at the top of one of the pillars just outside the entrance to Veksar.
The alternate spawn location for the Ivory bone is indeed on the beach, although I found mine on the far western side. The bad part of that is that is that undead mobs there called "Greysong Pirates" are standing right on top of the spot. I had to bring my 85 ranger in to clear them before I could loot the bone (they conned LB to an 85).

Just my experience with the 7 droppable runes needed......they have either GREATLY decreased the drop rates of all of them, or perhaps nerfed some of them totally.
I have spent well over 20+ hours killing every possible undead mob on the east side of Veksar with only 3 runes so far....i have yet to see these runes drop: cascade, flash or synergy. If you read the mob and rune posts, you may also find discrepincies like i did...i believe that some of the info on these runes have been misposted or have become obsolete since the introduction of the vendor fodder series of dusted rune types. It seems as though these trash runes have replaced the normal drops of the runes needed for the wiz 1.5-pre.
So far, i have had to "buy" impulse,vortex, tempest and cascade runes in bazaar, (at an avg. of 2.5k+ each....) which is cheap compared to the wasted time i've spent farming these runes, only to have them NOT drop.....
Admin...PLEASE update the 7 droppable runes listed above to RARE or VERY RARE...for there is no common or uncommon about them anymore.
After killing 50+ of a certain mob, .i.e.; ' a rotting hunter'....and no rune drop whatsoever...i'd say that classifies as RARE..as a minimum...
just a F.Y.I if attempting the pre-1.5 for a wiz....either save urself alot of trouble and buy it, if possible...or try another zone mob to get it to drop...for Veksar is not the place to get them.

Same problem, he pops out; just up and dissappears. Now there's an inactive clockwork about 2 steps away, but if you wait for a cue you won't hear one. Instead you'll hear the fail message "I can't believe he sent me this flunkie..". If you shock it randomly then he dies. When Yama dies he appears to be standing there again, but youcan't hail him. If you zone then he's gone. Re: spawn time, he was back the next night at least.

Can someone post exactly what needs to be done when ya get to Yama Twerik? From what I understand, after you go through the dialogue with him, you are supposed to follow him and click on your Spell: Electrical Charge when he tells you to. I have figured out that after you go through the dialogue with Yama Twerik, you need to target the Inactive Clockwork(I think). After I go through the dialogue with Yama, he disapppears and repops somewhere in the walls of the caves(or on top where I can't go). If I go into the cave, I can sometimes see the text where he is telling me to click on the spell but then I can't see my target. I have tried several different ways to continue from here and have actually used 6 charges so far(4 more left). Any help would be appreciated. feel free to ask me about any other question in regards to the quest. My main is Keebo and I am on Maelin server.

I had no luck in Dawnshroud so I went to Kodtaz and play a warrior, cleric, wizzy combo there for a while. At the same time, I took my druid and beastlord and killed the mobs in Veksar for a couple hours. I kept the Kodtaz field clean and the mobs in the caves in veksar clean. The Veksar drops are few and far between on ANY runes it that area. I was able to get the Rune of Coruscation from the Hynid Howler finally. I only pulled the mobs in the first field to the right of the zone-in from Natimbi. It took me a couple of hours to get the rune.

Have abandoned the pre-quest - no rune of coruscation. Camped in veskar for two weeks - did multiple High Risk NoRo LDON's, killed the Sambata Tribal Advisor repeatedly and no luck... they seem to have this rune in the loot table with all the other useless spell research crap - very low odds of getting it.
Will take my chances with the plat farmers whoring up Finny and Venril

Finally found her up in the north!
Seems that the rampage is AoE - and the range is such that you would have to get so far away you will attract adds.
She has pretty high regen rate.

Seems that the rampage is AoE - and the range is such that you would have to get so far away you will attract adds.
She has pretty high regen rate.

The research combine has a required skill of 190 if you could update that. I verified this the long hard and painful way lol.

Can anyone confirm if the rune of greater conflagration is still dropping in hard ldon ef and tak? ive done about 10-15 of each and the only rune the drops is coruscation. I'm tired of the prequest and thats the last thing i need to finish but im bout to give up and do 1.0.

I don't believe it does (or ever did?) - this rune is the drop from Shar Vinitras. It's his ONLY drop. Why would there be a mob in a quest with no other loot at all if he wasn't the only place to get it?
Shar Vinitras is also, of course, the only even mildly challenging bit of this whole prequest. Ignore all the stuff about his dreadful slows, caster fight only etc - did him yesterday with just warrior, rogue and cleric, very easy fight, just keep good disease cure (or Potion of Immunization X) handy in case the DoT hits you.

If you fail the last part of this quest you can go back Talwyn Flamecaller and have uncharged scoll on cursor and hail you get a new one

Also the reasearch part would not let me combine at skill of 180 but did at 185
