This task is a "sub-quest" in the task Beyond the Barrier and is given to you once you reach the point in the task at which you're given access to Crystallos.

It is given by Laiyken who is located at +1984, -1090, -362 in Dragonscale Hills.


Explore the Ice Wing of Crystallos (0/1) - Crystallos, Lair of the Awakened

/loc is near +360, +1575, +300.

Explore the Fire Wing of Crystallos (0/1) - Crystallos, Lair of the Awakened

/loc is near +1680, -900, -150.

Explore the Air Wing of Crystallos (0/1) - Crystallos, Lair of the Awakened

/loc is near +925, +1880, +200.

Explore the Earth Wing of Crystallos (0/1) - Crystallos, Lair of the Awakened

/loc is near +2550, -200, -375.

Locations for map files:
P -1575.0000, -360.0000, 300.0000, 240, 0, 0, 2, ice_wing
P 900.0000, -1680.0000, -150.0000, 240, 0, 0, 2, fire_wing
P -1880.0000, -925.0000, 200.0000, 240, 0, 0, 2, air_wing
P 200.0000, -2550.0000, -375.0000, 240, 0, 0, 2, earth_wing

This can be completed with a level 70 Goblin Rogue shroud, provided you are aware of the following:

A) The mob "a watchful sentry" (appears as an evil eye) can see through any kind of invisibility, sneak, hide, and possibly the rogue's SoS ability. However, it does not see sneak and hide for as long as the mob is facing away from you.

B) These evil eyes have their own patrolling routes, so it is easy to avoid or run past them. Be aware that they often stop close to doors, and having a form of Eye of Zomm is especially helpful.

C) By the way, monks can mezz these evil eyes.

D) All of the non-named mobs, other than evil eyes, do not see invisible, and rogues can simply use sneak and hide to move undetected.

Completing this task will automatically update the task objective 'Explore Crystallos' in the Beyond the Barrier quest.

This is not true...I shrouded to rogue with hide/sneak and one of the first mobs I saw beyond the evil eyes was An Elder Earth Drake that most certainly could see me. There was another mob beside it which I didn't have a chance to con as I was running the other direction.

Wing of Fire (1st East - Magenta): Approx. 1608 x -924 x -136 (Note - These are game loc's NOT map loc's)
[My guess is anywhere even with the Squire/midway in his room will set this off]
An Elder Fire Drake, a watchful sentry, Squire Alkaa all See Invis.
(Warning note - Do not try to fight the sentries, thinking you will just dispose of one easy mob, all will seem fine at first,then you'll find yourself fighting multiples.)

Wing of Ice (1st West - Orange): 435 x 1585 x 303 [Just inside the door on the left set it off].
{Good fortune in this wing no SI drakes and only 2 eyes (1 of which missed seeing me), plus it was a PH instead of a Squire}

Wing of Earth (NNE - Green): 2620 x -163 x -369 (Came in from the less populated western side, a PH up, only 1 eye on the direct route.)
[Tip - If you're careful you can zigzag your way thru the tunnels avoiding the eyeballs all together]

Wing of Air (WNW - Green) 883 x 1930 x 200 (South middle of the lower half of the large egg-shaped room) An Elder Air Wyvern did not SI but An Elder Air Drake just like Fire did, plus a couple of eyes in the tunnels with no place to go, unlike the nice big rooms in Ice.

The squire in the Ice wing sees through Invis. Makes it tough to get the mark at his feet.

I had the same thing happen, what it was (for me) is that I did not rehail tonas or one of his friends up farther in the list to finish up the brother tasks. Try checking and maybe just rehailing them, then they will say go to Laiken again. Hope this helps !

Laiken won't talk to you unless you have the necklace in your inventory.

did this today as a ranger, only took about half an hour of running around. i kept invis up the entire time and as for the sentries, aka evil eyes, you can use sneak to get around them. as long as you stay behind them/to the side out of their line of sight they won't agro. they path back and forth in certain areas and like to stop right before a door so you may get a surprise when opening some doors. just watch where they go and follow them close with sneak on, you can slip past them all, drop sneak and keep running to the task update locs, which are above are correct.
Necros: this is cake!

All you need is 2 AAs:

-Death Peace 2 (Fast Cast AA FD)
-Cloak of Shadows (Insta Invis)


**Using the 2 DAs (Harmshield/Quivering Veil) wouldn't hurt, but it's not always necessary.**


All you do is run towards the map point until you find an evil eye (or any other SI pathers) and FD immediately where you're standing. Watch them and wait until any/all SIs path out of agro range behind you. Then (while standing) spam you CoS AA button.

You are now a god.

The name of the task as spelled in task window is called Exploring Crystallos. Not Explore Crystallos. Makes it hard to find the quest in Allah's search engine. :->

The locations for Air and Earth are reversed as posted. Other two are correct.

In the quest Access to Crystallos: Beyond the Barrier you get 4 crystals. You need to have these in your inventory, not in the bank, or you won't get this task.

(You may also be required to hail some (not all, i didn't) of the brothers after having obtained these 4 crystals.
Upon hailing, Tonas says, 'I see that you have collected all four of the crystals. Please go out and find Laiyken now.)

You say, 'Hail, Laiyken'
Your task 'Beyond the Barrier' has been updated.

Laiyken says 'I see you have spoken to all of the others and now have the crystals. Place them within this container and you should have what you seek. Remember however, that as long as you are within the barrier you will need to keep the Prismatic Crystal with you. The only thing I ask of you in return is that you return to me once you have ventured past the prismatic barrier and have explored the area thoroughly.'

You have been assigned the task 'Exploring Crystallos'.
Goals:

Explore the Ice Wing of Crystallos.
Explore the Fire Wing of Crystallos.
Explore the Air Wing of Crystallos.
Explore the Earth Wing of Crystallos.

(Task description is blank.)

You recieve Master Crystal Base. Put the clear, glowing, cloudy and lightblue crystal into it and press combine to receive Prismatic Crystal Charm. This is your key to Crystallos.
