Naming convention

Any chance you can change this to xth (ex: 8th) instead of spelling it out (ex: Eighth) in the Alla's database to better match the way it is referenced in-game?
That will also keep the naming convention consistent for all the anniversary stuff. So when searching for the quests and/or achievements it would show up, altogether when searching a single term (ex: 8th).

I kept search for 6th trying to find the actual 6th Anniversary task but it's listed as "EQ Sixth Anniversary Scavenger Hunt". In-game and on Allah's, the achievement is called "Achievement: 6th Anniversary Task". But on Allah's the task is called "EQ Sixth Anniversary Scavenger Hunt". However in-game, the achievement itself refers to it as 6th: Complete 6th Anniversary Scavenger Hunt

Just trying to keep things smooth and consistent.

8th Anniversary Quest Nexus - Luclin Starts in Nexus
(Pre Looted)
with what I know now, this is the way I would run this quest

POK== >
1. Shadeweaver's Thicket. == >
A Collector's Crude Stone Idol - gor taku,
SouthCentral west of PoK Book

2. Paludal Caverns == >
A Collector's Fungal Fiend Flesh - plerg fiends,
Collected as you go to Hollowshade Moor zone line

3. Hollowshade Moor == > Grimling Forest == >
A Collector's Grimling Toe - bone cracker, We killed Grimlings didn’t say bone cracker as I remember
NorthEast Corner by The Tenebrous Mountains zone line

4. The Tenebrous Mountains == >
A Collector's Sonic Wolf Ear - dire sonic wolf,
SouthWest Corner on way to Katta Castellum zone line

5. Katta Castellum == > The Twilight Sea == >
A Collector's Elemental Focus - elementals,
Center, middle island, near 0/0

6. The Scarlet Desert == >
A Collector's Sun Revenant Veil - sun revenant,
Killed on top of spire in SouthEast corner but camp west side south of the Greys zone line

7. The Grey == > Mons Letalis == >
A Collector's Polished Stone - stonegrabber,
Killed in canyons on way to Marus Seru zone line

8. Marus Seru == >
A Collector's Rockhopper Hide - greyhopper,
Killed in NorthEast corner heading to Netherbian Lair zone line

9. Netherbian Lair == >
A Collector's Netherbian Claw - netherbian,
At the 4 way stay straight (heading west) from Marus Seru

10. Dawnshroud Peaks == >
A Collector's Lightcrawler Shell - lightcrawler,
Right inside zone line may have to kill random mobs to spawn.

Now if you completed the Pub Crawl and have your stein - port to POK run to nexus stone,

other wise
Netherbian Lair == > Nexus get bag combine and turn in destroy book. Cast Familiar

This is the way I would perform this task if ever done again. The way I did it was to follow dschenk’s guide to start with and then a buddy wanted to try it also. So he started in Dawnshroud Peaks. Running it this way == > DP, NL, MS, ML, TG, SD, TS, KC, TM, GF, HM,PC,ST, Pok, Nex (me I try to limit ZL’s I cross LD during Zoning which I didn’t do it this time). Plan a quest, raid, mission, or anything in EQ with minimal zoning. Everything is a minimum of 5 zone crossings CampFires help but have to get there to set up (3).

This is the easiest one of the first few Anniversary collection quests. From PoK you can go either direction, but most folks would want to use the Nexus stone and pick up your collection bag there to start. Then go from zone to zone in the following order:

PoK to Nexus -->
1 Netherbian Lair -->
2 Dawnshroud Peaks --> Sanctus Seru -->
3 Marus Seru -->
4 Mons Letalis --> The Grey
5 The Scarlet Desert -->
6 The Twilight Sea --> Kartta Castellum -->
7 The Tenebrous Mountains -->
8 Grimling Forest --> Hollowshade Moors -->
9 Paludal Caverns -->
10 Shadeweaver's Thicket --> PoK --> Nexus --DONE

Since the last patch, the A Collector's Sun Revenant Veil - sun revenant, The Scarlet Desert item seems to be missing. I and a friend spent 4 hours killing sun revents yesterday. (we were getting good xp as we are only lvl 50 toons so we hung out to see what dropped.) But never saw a veil of any kind during the whole 4 hours. Finally gave up.

Wondered if anyone else had the problem? Also /bugged the event with SOE.

I want to add that doing the quest during the 9th anniversary i was able to do the quest on 3 toons..BUT during last few days ( patch coming up in 3 days from today) the drop rate is dramatically less. I am trying for the 10th item on list from PC and have killed like 200 mobs and no drop. With other toons it was after 2nd or 3rd it dropped the collector. It is also the 1st item i am trying to collect on this toon. So, if you are doing quest it seems best to do it soner than later as sony cuts drops off bad. BTW i am doing quest w/ a 63 rogue..and my 68 cleric did it in about 1 hour..it has been 1 hour at least on the damn fungal flesh:(

it is not bugged. drops only from the revenants on the ground, not the mesa top ones.

The collector's item can drop from any sun revenant anywhere in the zone. I've had them drop from sun revenants near the zone to Twilight Sea and also from sun revenants atop the mesa.

I found mine before the patch.. however.. it might depend on where you were killing them at. I made two full rounds of killing every one of them at the temple-thingy where they were all concentrated, and never got a drop. Giving up, I killed two more near the zone out, and the second one dropped it.

Patch -could- have broken it, and it's worth /bugging anyway, if only one or two of the right mobs in the zone will actually drop it.
