Veil of Alaris Information & Guides: An Overview | Group Progression & Task List | Raid Progression | Visible Armor
This solo task begins with Atleris, Council Pinnacle, in Argath inside the council building on the zone-in level.
Pre-requisites for requesting the task:
- Completion of "This is Argath"
- Completion of "Shoring Up Defenses"
- Completion of "Protect the Arms"
- Completion of "The Riddle of Steel"
- (no minimum skill level in Alaran Language)
You say, 'Hail, Atleris, Council Pinnacle'
Atleris, Council Pinnacle says 'Your [help] has been invaluable to us! Thank you for [speak]ing with Vitesal, but ali disappoints me. Alir failures cost time. We still do not know why the Forge erupted. What we do know is that its increased power must not fall to Erillon. Even now the enemy redoubles their bombardment, pelting our forces with catapults. I would station more archers at the Forge Overlook, but the enemy's projectiles would crush them. We must destroy the catapults so we can push back Erillon's forces and [resupply] the defenders inside the Forge.'
You say, 'Resupply the defenders?'
Atleris, Council Pinnacle says 'Argath's champions guard the Forge entrance. The Forge attendants and channelers labor to contain the Forge's steel well. These Argathians have served bravely without resupply since Erillon entered our gates. Unless we can destroy the catapults and [repel] the Erillons, those inside the Forge will perish of hunger.'
You say, 'How do we repel them?'
Atleris, Council Pinnacle says 'Alassin formed a plan. Al collaborated with Mizzenblast the outsider. Will you [work] with them?'
You say, 'I'll work with Alassin'
Atleris, Council Pinnacle says 'I place little faith in this plan, but we have no recourse. You may find Alassin on the crown. If you manage to destroy the catapults, try to capture any Erillian commander you can find. They must answer for Erillion's villainy!'
You have been assigned the task 'Breaking Ballistae'.
The Erillion catapults wear away at Argath's defenses. Atleris asks you to help Alassin and Mizzenblast destroy them. Atleris also told you to find and interrogate any commanding Erillion officers you find in the valley.
Speak with Alassin on the Crown.
Speak with Alassin 0/1 (Argath)
Alassin is in the building closest to the air ship drop-off from Steamfont, at about 315, 200, 7.
You say, 'Hail, Alassin'
Alassin says 'Yes, I have been working with crazy Mizzenblast. Al is -- what is it called? -- a gnome? Are all gnomes crazy?'
Speak with Mizzenblast 0/1 (Argath)
Task Window Says: Alassin is not confident in Mizzenblast's plan, but it is the only plan.
Mizzenblast is found in a building near Troopwielder Latakan in the northern part of the Arms.
You say, 'Hail, Mizzenblast'
Mizzenblast says 'Blow ourselves up? No! Have you been listening to Alassin? Maybe I don't speak Alaran as well as I thought I did. He's been telling everyone about how stupid he thinks my plan is, but he doesn't even understand it! It's really quite [simple].'
You receive a Mizzenblast Exoblast.
You say, 'Simple?'
Mizzenblast says 'I modified some of my clockwork spheres, reinforcing them with several layers of steel. Within these layers, I wrapped packets of explosive powder. With a reflective coating of Argathian steel near the handle, the bearer of the device can stay safe from any shrapnel. So, we can walk right up to the catapults and [detonate] the explosives without fear!'
You say, 'Detonate, how?'
Mizzenblast says 'This is the genius of my design: The inner steel lining keeps the bearer completely unharmed! See, I'm not as crazy as Alassin thinks I am! Take a sphere and get to work!'
Destroy the first Erillian catapult 0/1 (Argath)
Destroy the second Erillian catapult 0/1 (Argath)
Destroy the third Erillian catapult 0/1 (Argath)
Destroy the fourth Erillian catapult 0/1 (Argath)
The four catapults are found in the lower area of the zone. Get up close to them and then click the Mizzenblast Exoblast (20-second cast) to destroy them.
Subdue and interrogate Intellector Galdon 0/1 (Argath)
Task Window Says: Now that you have cripples the enemy's catapults, find and interrogate an enemy commander.
Intellector Galdon spawns in the central area of the "belly", in the middle of the erupted forge (near Catapult #3). The two soother spawns next to him have a short respawn timer. They are splittable.
Galdon hits for a max ~12,000 and AE rampages. He'll go inactive as he reaches low health:
Intellector Galdon says 'Stop! Do not kill me! I will talk! Yes, Erillion wants the Forge. The Orator has commanded us to sieze it. Why would al not want it? It produces the finest steel in Alaris. And Argath has the greatest defenses. It is the perfect fortress for a great army! No, we did not poison the Forge. I have told you everything. Now please, spare my life!'
Speak with Bursin the Legend 0/1 (Argath)
Bursin the Legend is found at about -160, -500, -400 (outside the main forge area, accessed via the southwestern part of Argath's "Belly".
You say, 'Hail, Bursin the Legend'
Bursin the Legend says 'Halt! What sort of creature are you? [Explain] yourself! Are you a thrall of Erillion? Do you bring supplies?'
