I tried for an hour to get into the water and was not able to do it- decided to /kick the task

Anniversary events tend to run from mid-March to mid-April (sometimes to mid-May) each year. They are not available during the "off season".
For an overview and list of EverQuest Anniversary events, see this quest entry. This is an anniversary group monster mission introduced with EverQuest's 14th anniversary. It begins with Piestro in the Great Divide at -1810, -4200 (outside the Eastern Wastes zone line). There are no pre-requisites for requesting this task. Required level and number of players are not confirmed (you may need three actual players to request?). Mercenaries are allowed in this instanced zone, but the shrouds don't come with platinum, so they will suspend themselves once the platinum timer runs out. You say, 'Hail, Piestro' Piestro says 'This was supposed to be my day off! It's [not fair]!' You say, 'Not fair?' Piestro says 'Bristlebane is making a huge stink about how the developers haven't paid him any attention lately, so he kidnapped one of them and stashed them away in the Plane of Mischief. It was supposed to be my day off, but the design team has asked me to find some brave adventurers to rescue the captured developer. I have enough on my hands managing the forums, and I don't really have time for this. Do you think you could [help] me out here?' You say, 'I will help' Piestro says 'Bristlebane has made it his wish that you become one of his minions for this mission. Choose your role and then when you are [ready], just let me know!' You have been assigned the task 'Piestro's Day Off'. Bristlebane has captured one of the developers and has recruited you to his army to help stop them from being rescued. Monster Templates: - Helping Hand (Cleric) - Giant Bunny (Warrior) - Jester (Enchanter) - Fetid Skunk (Monk) - Gorilla Scholar (Wizard) - Ratman Prankster (Rogue) Say "ready" to zone into the instanced zone. You say, 'Ready!' Piestro says 'Here we go!' LOADING, PLEASE WAIT... You have entered The Plane of Mischief - Piestro's Day Off. Speak with Piestro 0/1 (Plane of Mischief) You say, 'Hail, Piestro' Piestro says 'Um, don't be mad at me, but Bristlebane forced me to trick you into coming here. He said he will spam the forums and then trap me in here forever unless I found some adventurers to help him stop the developers from rescuing their friend. If you don't think you are up to this challenge though, I can help you [get out of here]. Oh, oh. I think I hear Bristlebane coming. Man, what a bummer. All I wanted was a day off!' Aw, why so glum? We are going to have so much fun! I have captured one of the developers and they are currently being held in the garden. It seems the other developers haven't taken kindly to this and are trying to rescue them. You are now honorary members of my army and you will stop them!' Speak with Bristlebane 0/1 (Plane of Mischief) You say, 'Hail, Bristlebane' Bristlebane says 'Now that you are one of my minions, you must prove to me that you are strong enough to stop the developers. Since the developers won't revamp my home, I have taken it upon myself to force the imprisoned developer to implement some new tricks and obstacles to prove your worth. If you can pass these trials, we will move on to the finale to stop the developers! Now enter the portal before you and speak with Piestro to start your first trial.' Speak with Piestro 0/1 (Plane of Mischief) You say, 'Hail, Piestro' Piestro unenthusiastically says, 'The wonderful and wacky lord of mischief, Bristlebane has seen it fit for you to take the treasure chest challenge. You must open all of the treasure chests in this room except for the one with the jester in it. Which one has the jester in it? You will just have to figure that out on your own. If you do open the chest with the jester, just tell me to [reset] them and I will spawn a new set of treasure chests. Did I mention that all I wanted was a day off?' This spawns 5x "a treasure chest" in the room. Complete the Treasure Chest Challenge 0/1 (Plane of Mischief) Task Window Says: Open the treasure chest that doesn't contain a jester. If you accidentally open the chest with the jester, just say "reset" to Piestro to get a new set of treasure chests. Five chests are in the room. One of them (a random one) contains a jester. You need to open the four that don't contain the jester. If you open the wrong one, you see... Bristlebane shouts, 'Oops! That's the wrong chest! Now deal with my angry jester!' ...and "an angry jester" attacks (hits for a max 196). If you want to reset it, say "reset" to Piestro (note: if you've spawned a jester, it still remains alive): You say, 'Reset this!' Piestro says 'Ok, have another go at it. Good luck!' Once you open the four chests without a jester: Bristlebane's booming voice echoes throughout the room, 'You have passed the first challenge, now enter the portal that leads to the library and speak with Piestro again. Toodles!' Speak with Piestro 0/1 (Plane of Mischief) Use the big portal in the northwestern part of the chest room to port to the library. Here, you will have 6x "a gorilla scholar" to contend with (max hit: 74), that spawn around the room. These are NOT auto-aggro, so have everyone in your group get close to Piestro so you don't have to deal with all six at once. You say, 'Hail, Piestro' Piestro grudgingly says, 'The great and whimsical lord of mischief, our dear lord, Bristlebane will have you find his favorite bed time story. Find it, and give it to me. I hope someone is moderating the message boards while I am here.' Give Bristlebane's favorite bedtime story to Piestro 0/1 (Plane of Mischief) Task Window Says: Kill gorillas to obtain books and then give Bristlebane's favorite bedtime story to Piestro. What is Bristlebane's favorite bedtime story? You will just have to find that out on your own! Loot "The Book of Blank Pages" and turn it in to Piestro. Use the portal to port over to the maze. Kill some quest bugs 0/6 (Plane of Mischief) Kill some developer's hands 0/6 (Plane of Mischief) Kill the above mobs in the maze. Find Piestro and speak with him 0/1 (Plane of Mischief) Note: Do not rely on the Find feature to find him. Locate him yourself. It's possible he may spawn at a random location, but he is known to appear in the far northeastern part of the tunnels (if you can't find him, you can go back to the zone-in and hail him there as there are two versions of him up at this time). One known location is 690, -1190. Defeat the Ban Hammer 0/1 (Plane of Mischief) Head through the portal into the upside down area and encounter the "Ban Hammer". Speak with Piestro 0/1 (Plane of Mischief) Defeat the Suspended Players 0/4 (Plane of Mischief) Head through the portal and kill the four suspended players. Speak with Bristlebane 0/1 (Plane of Mischief) Note: This triggers the spawn of 4x "a forum troll". Defeat the forum trolls 0/4 (Plane of Mischief) Upon the trolls' deaths, "Spambot" spawns and attacks. Defeat the Spambot 0/1 (Plane of Mischief) Speak with Bristlebane 0/1 (Plane of Mischief) Loot the chest for your reward 0/1 (Plane of Mischief) Open it up to spawn a jester; kill the jester. Speak with Bristlebane 0/1 (Plane of Mischief) Port over to the theater area and find Bristlebane. Say "leave" to exit out. Speak with Piestro 0/1 (Great Divide) Loot the chest for your real rewards 0/1 (Great Divide) Task Reward: 127 platinum, 4 gold Optional Rewards: - #1: 5 AAs - #2: Experience Only (2% in Level 100) Possible Chest Loot (2 items per task + 0-1 aug): Buford's Ring Dragoncry Earring Fire-Singed Cloak Gooey Earstud Little Swinetor's Ring Saggy Baggy Gorget Signet of the Gathering Somewhat Useless Shawl Sword of Wars Blue Stone of Power Green Stone of Power Red Stone of Power White Stone of Power Yellow Stone of Power | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
