Sultin is a Dark Elf in The Temple of Solusek Ro at location 385, 77, 16.

You say, 'Hail, Sultin'

Sultin says 'I am Sultin - keeper of the three [incandescent]s of power and the [rod] of Insidious Glamour. If you are an enchanter, perhaps we can deal.'

You say, 'What are the three incandescents?'

Sultin says 'There are three incandescent items of power - a [wand], [mask] and [gloves]. Are you [interested] in any of them?'

You say, 'I am interested in the mask.'

Sultin says 'An item of power! The incandescent mask. If you will bring me the components to make another, I will give you my own incandescent mask. I will need a glowing mask, found on the skeletal monk in the caverns of Guk. I will also need all three runes of fortune. One rune can be found on the dark elf Enynti in the chasm below Castle Mistmoore. The other two can be purchased for 50 golden coins, one from Mizr N'Mar in the Neriak City Library and the other from Madam Serena in the city of Qeynos. Bring me all three runes and the glowing mask and I will give you your reward.'




As an alternative to the skeletal monk Sultin mentions (other posters have reported his location), the Froglok Scryer also drops the Glowing Mask (as well as other useful old-world caster items). He spawns in Upper Guk at approximately 256, -454, -14, in room number 15 on the EQAtlas map. Previous posts indicate he may be able to spawn in any of the 3 spawn points near that location. The placeholders are various Froglok shamans whose levels are in the low 20s. They respawned approximately every 8 to 12 minutes for me yesterday and today.

Enynti spawns at 138, -100.70, -237 (according to Allakhazam). She's level 26 and is next to two gargoyles (which should mean little to an enchanter, thanks to our pacify spells). She drops Rune of Fortune (which Identifies as "Rune of Fortune: Bottom").

Madame Serena is in South Qeynos at loc -38, 64, 2, south of the Mermaid's Lure, which is near the docks. She appears as a gipsy-style Human woman with an Enchanter pet (sword and shield). She doesn't respond to hails. Allakhazam says she has religious rhymes, though.

Give Madame Serena 5 plat or 50 gold.


"Fifty gold? You must want a rune of fortune. If you want another one, give fifty gold to Mizr N'Mar in the Neriak library."
You gain experience!!

You receive Rune of Fortune (which Identifies as "Rune of Fortune: Top").

Mizr N'Mar is in Neriak Third Gate, in the Neriak Library, at location 914, -1314, -67. He appears as the standard Dark Elf merchant.


You say, 'Hail, Mizr N'Mar'

Mizr N'Mar says 'Have you come to buy a scroll from me?"

He won't respond to anything you say, but give him 5 platinum.

Mizr N'Mar says 'Ahhh - gold. Here is the rune you desire.'

You receive Rune of Fortune (which Identifies as "Rune of Fortune: Middle").

Give Sultin the Glowing Mask and the three Runes of Fortune.


Sultin says 'Solusek Ro does not believe in half measures.'
Sultin says 'Solusek Ro does not believe in half measures.'

I went from apprehensive to amiable with 40 brandies to Rohand.

Skeleton Monk

The monk is in Upper Guk, loc 752, -28, -150. No faction hits. Tempus will assist the monk by healing it. Don't know if he's more agressive at when attacked with a lower level toon. (49 Warrior) Four kills, two drops for the Glowing Mask. The spawn time is the same as the Heart Spiders.

Just killed Enynti on The Sleeper (previous post was also on Sleeper). I was on the far end of the bridge ledge looking down on the platform. I then pulled her with one arrow and no agro from anything else. (Assuming the bridge platform is clear.) She fell fairly quickly. Dropped some FS weapons, chain cape, and the rune. Took two kills to finally get the rune. I did it solo, (50 War) with Haste V, Skinspikes VI pots. Mage DS helped out a bit too.

Faction hits as follows:
Your faction standing with Mayong Mistmoore could not possibly get any worse.
Your faction standing with King Tearis Thex got better.
Your faction standing with Agents of Mistmoore could not possibly get any worse.
Your faction standing with League of Antonican Bards got better.
Your faction standing with Ring of Scale got better.
40 minutes maybe

Well, completed this quest today, with two of my characters...

I farmed Glowing Mask, runes from Enynti and from Madame Serena with my 51 PAL.

Then, I logged my 15 ENC.
First, I made some faction work :
Went to South Ro to turn some Lightstones to Smith Tv`Ysa (http://eqbeastiary.allakhazam.com/search.shtml?id=3331).
She was apprehensive or dubious to me.
Tried to give her a GL, she took it and i gained nothing (no xp, no faction hits!).
I casted Alliance, gave her a Lightstone, same thing.
So i casted Invis, and then it worked! 13 Lightstones later, I was amiable to her (and had gained 13% xp in the process!).

Went then to Neriak, where outer and inner guards where still Dubious to me.
Went to 3rd Gate, Library, and gave 50 gp to Mizr N`Mar => got the last rune.

Then headed to temple of Ro, found Sultin, and camped in front of him.

Relogged my Pal, went to Temple of Ro, found Sultin, activated the quest by saying "I am interested in the mask".
He replied the text asking for the components.
I handed him the mask and 2 of the runes, all at a time.
He replied the same sentence 3 times, saying that some components were still missing.

Then i logged out, relogged my ENC.
Gave the last rune and voilĂ !, Incandescent Mask!
(not No Drop by the way). Gained 11% xp for the turn in...

Last thing, my PAL was Amiable to Sultin, My ENC only Indifferent.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the info on MQ, I will give this a try tonight. I had been wondering whether you could MQ by logging off/on with different chars, without keeping the trade window open with the npc.
It seems this would mean that if someone else comes and and does an MQ while you are getting your second char in, they could end up getting the item (a pleasant surprise for them, but not for you :)
No faction for buying runes.

There is no longer a Beta Neutral faction increase for buying the rune from Mizr N`Mar or any other quest so far as I am aware. Verant removed all faction hits for that faction, whether positive or negative, so far as I am aware.

It Works!
# Aug 28 2002 at 12:21 AM Rating: Good
For those people who are wondering how to gain faction with Madame Serena there was only way of getting it. I tried charming and at lvl 52 it doesn't work. I tried going in casting Benevolence, and Human Illusion, and that doesnt work, she still "dubiously". Even tried going in with invis on, and nope, that didn't work. The one thing that worked was giving "Captain Rohand" who is in the building Madame Serena is standing by, nothing other then Brandy. It took me 80 Brandy total to get my faction to amiably with her. Then i gave her the 50gp, and there you go she gives you the Rune of Fortune.
Word to the wise make sure when giveing the brandy make sure you out 1 in each of the 4 slots, not 20 in each.

Good luck

Before you give all three runes and mask to Sultin in Temple of Solusek Ro, cast benevolence which will make him con as amiable, he will then give you the mask.

Quick observation:

If your're KOS to Frogloks, and want to get the Glowing Mask, Skeletal Monks in Unrest also look like they drop them.

Hope I save a few ppl deaths/worry when getting this part of the quest.

I did this the easy way, whacked Enynti(sp) in MM, whacked monk in U. Guk, then had my chanter get runes from Neriak and commons, gave mask and rune with monk, gave other 2 runes with chanter, got mask and 1.5 blues of xp at 26 :)

Mistmoore and Upper Guk
# Jan 20 2002 at 8:29 AM Rating: Excellent
I did this quest with my pally, and let my enchanter loot the stuff, so she could be the one to go into Neriak.

For Enynti, she's lvl 26, and is flanked by two gargoyles, around her lvl also. There are dire wolves nearby, but they will not aggro. I suggest taking a couple folks with you, running invis to Enynti's spawn pt., kill her till she drops it, then gate, or invis and run out. As long as you stay on her platform, you shouldn't have any adds.

For the glowing mask, it's NO RENT so do this part last. The skeletal monk is level 25, but he is accompanied by a DE necro named Tempus (lvl 25 or so) and his 20th lvl pet. You'll need to go to the spider pit room in Upper Guk, and you'll see a ladder that goes down into the water. Jump into the water, and swim around till you see an underwater tunnel. Swim through that to get to your guy. Sometimes it takes a few times to get the mask to drop.

Multiquestable
# Jul 24 2001 at 9:58 AM Rating: Good
You do not take Neriak faction hits for hunting in MM nor killing Enynti.

You can multiquest this. The Runes of Fortune are no drop. Thus, whoever turns in the last of the quest items should receive the mask.

I believe that Mizr N`Mar in the Neriak Library is on Beta-Neutral faction, like most of the vendor mobs there. Thus, if you can get to the Library invised, you should be ok to hand him the pp to get the Rune, assuming you haven't totally trashed your Beta Neutral faction.

I'm going to castle MM today to kill this DE chick. I sure hope my faction doesn't get hurt with the dark elves of Neriak since I'm a darkie myself. I would like to maybe get some help from a high level peep in castle while I'm there if anyone is interested give me a tell. My name is Druil. I'm on Terris-Thule server. I'm a 27 DE chanter. See you in game all.

Okay, I'm a lvl 27 DE chanter. How hard would it be for me to kill this lady and loot the rune of fortune and will my faction with my own kind go down from killing her? I have everything else I need for quest except this rune. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Druil of Terris-Thule 27th season.
No drop

Are all the various runes of fortune no drop? If they're like the incandescent gloves quest, one of 'em shouldn't be (hopefully the one in neriak).
Multiquest
# Jun 14 2001 at 4:11 PM Rating: Default
Can this quest be done as a multiquest like Jboots? My enchanter is too low a level to go into MM, but I have a 55 necro for which this would be no problem. I'd like to do the MM part with my necro, and buy the other two with my enchanter, have the necro give MM piece, and then my enchanter the others.
Neriak faction
# May 27 2001 at 10:53 PM Rating: Good

I've gotten my Neriak faction up high enough that even in my native High Elf form the merchants con as allies. Combination of the red wine quest, and turning in lightstones in Desert of South Ro. Admittedly, I had to start out using gnome illusion (didn't yet have DE illusion at time) to get around without being killed. But now I'm at least dubious, and often much better everywhere in Nek and Neriak except Third Gate without illusions or alliance type spells.
How to do this quest
# Mar 23 2001 at 2:29 PM Rating: Good
Hi all..
I, 35 druid of Tunare, how completed this entire quest. Not too difficult. Couple of stumbling points, so I thought I would share them with ya. Hope this helps.
Went to lower guk to get glowing mask, and first tried the scrye. Foret this one... takes forever if you can get him to drop it. Someone told me he might be broke. So we went to the monk room. You have to go underwater and up into his little room next to Tempus. Dunno what Tempus is about, but the monk doesn't ask like most skellies. You hit him and he will run and jump in the water and swim for it. This is really a drag. Root that little ^%&* and nuke the crap outta him. Or whatever way you use to kill.. if you are to melee, well, he doesn't swim real fast, but he sure climbs ladders fast and you will lose him if he gets a good head start. He drops the mask quite often from what we found. Although, that could just be us.
Next, off to Qeynos and Madam Serena. She spawns in the Mermaids Lair near Captain Rohand, the building is on the docks. She is a real ******. My faction with her started at apprehensive and she wouldn't give up the rune. I did the brandy quest, go to the bar just north of the docks, buy about 4 stacks of brandy and give them four at a time to the captain and your faction will go up. His went from apprehensive to warmly but hers only went to amiable. She then completed the quest and I got my rune. Note, this must make your faction with the qeynos rogue go way down cuz they attacked me right after, and the guards won't do anything!
Next step was Neriak. Ack... scary place for a druid of tunare. Well, since Mizr N' Mar is of faction beta neutral, you have a chance of completing this if your faction is ok. I just invised and hauled butt inside. Stay invis, I approached from behind, and give him the 50gp (make sure you have the 50gp before you go in, don't try going to the bank!!) He coughed up the rune without a "Hey, who are you" and I gated out asap. Make sure you are outta sight from anyone when you gate as invis will drop!! Whew!
The last rune is found on Enynti in the chasm behind Caslte mistmoore. Another scary place. At 35, she is still blue. As are the grinning gargoyles guarding her. The bloodwolves right next to her are way red! However, they don't seem to aggro if you don't mess with them. I did this the easy way. I have a 49th lvl druid friend go in with me and knock her out and we got the rune first shot. I know I cheated, but, Oh well...
Got my mask and thats what counts!!

She is located in South Qeynos OUTSIDE and at the back of the Mermaids Lure building positioned near the dock.

Actually monks can wear it, the stats aren't a lot of help for a monk but the 7 CHA is kinda handy for merchants.

High elf enchanters can have relatively ease sneaking into Neriak with illusion Dark elf and invisibility.

When you get all the way to the 3rd Gate in Neriak and go into the Neriak library talk to Mizn whatever, his faction is beta nuetral, it'll go up a hair after you give him the 50gps, and you'll have one of the needed Runes of Fortune.


Essentially, if your to chicken to try and sneak in after you get invis, wait until level 12 and use illusion dark elf, simple as that
RE: highelf enc to neriak?
# Feb 20 2001 at 10:27 PM Rating: Default
Don't forget to stay invis as much as possible. And GATE out of there when you done is best way to avoid any baddies
RE: highelf enc to neriak?
# Feb 16 2001 at 3:59 AM Rating: Decent
buy your illusion Dark Elf in Felwithe or in Freeport if you are already on Antonica. I hope you are an agnostic Enchanter, if you are not you may have a problem. My first enchanter worshipped Erollsi Marr, I got the required component in Neriak but then died to a guard who didnt like my religion. Needless to say I have created a new enchanter, and he is agnostic.
RE: highelf enc to neriak?

You seem to forget the ever usefull Illusion: Gnome spell. Thee Dark elvesdon't care about the little buggers running around. Just be sure to use Alliance before you talk to anyone.
RE: highelf enc to neriak?
# Feb 27 2002 at 1:31 AM Rating: Decent
Haha! My enchanter IS a gnome! He was dubious in his true form before doing the greater lightstone quest, but I haven't been back since. I don't think this will be a problem at all for my 'little bugger'!
