| Solusek Ro, The Burning Prince with his crown of flame and spear of fire rules the Plane of Flame from his mighty Burning Tower. Fire Elementals, Efreeti, and an assortment of other fire loving planar creatures inhabit Solusek's endless kingdom of blazing landscapes under a burning red sky filled with clouds of smoke, smoldering embers, and fiery rain.
The mortals attribute Solusek with such acts as the raising of the Serpent's Spine Mountains and the destruction of Eldarr Forest, creating the Deserts of Ro and changing the face and history of Norrath. Does this deity, revered by powerful wizards throughout Norrath, serve the will of his father, the mysterious greater god Fennin Ro, Tyrant of Fire and Lord of the Plane of Fire ? Or does Solusek Ro serve his own destructive and power hungry cause ? Level 57 is required to enter the zone without a flag on the live servers. |

In Tower of Solusek Ro, Go straight to wall, You can see dwarf between fire pot and wall.
[Wed Aug 23 10:08:20 2006] You say, 'Hail, Neerin'
[Wed Aug 23 10:08:21 2006] You see before you what must be another adventurer that has fallen upon hard times. Barely able to stand from deep wounds he received in some recent fight he clumsily leans against the near wall. 'Ach, more fortune-hunters! I hope you have more luck than me and my party. Alas, I fear I am all that is left. We were foolish not to heed the warnings of our
elders but our greed could not be ignored. Now here I am, forced to hide as I slowly mend, with nothing but the memories of my fallen comrades to keep me company. But by the look in your eye you're not here merely seeking fame or fortune. No, you're after something else . . . or someone else. Now I wonder, would it be [Solusek] himself?
[Wed Aug 23 10:08:43 2006] You say, 'Who is Solusek?'
[Wed Aug 23 10:08:43 2006] Neerin says 'Yes, this is his tower naturally but let me warn you that to challenge the burning prince himself is pure folly. Not only can he smite you down as easily as you would swat a fly but his inner sanctum is locked to mortals such as you and I. However, we did discover a way to bypass the lock. As I have no use for the information now I gladly share it with you in the hope that you succeed where we have failed. Within these walls exists an enchanted key that can pierce the barrier he has woven. It was split into three parts by Solusek himself. One part of the key can be found on an efreeti noble. The second part can be found on a sun lord. The [third part], however, I am not exactly sure where it may be.'
[Wed Aug 23 10:08:59 2006] You say, 'What is third part?'
[Wed Aug 23 10:09:00 2006] Neerin says 'My party and I found it but we were ambushed by some of his guards. Those that survived the initial attack ran. In the confusion we got separated and thus I don't know who was the last one to carry it. You must search for the bodies of my fallen comrades until you come across the last part of the key. Once you have all three parts bring them back and I can reform the key properly for you.'
a sun lord drop First Part of Solusek's Key. You can find him before warp to Tower of Protector of Dresolik(Most East Tower).
an efreeti baron drop Second Part of Solusek's Key. You can find him past warp to Jiva's tower(Center tower).
https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=33434
You can find skeleton on route to Xuzl tower. You can loot Third Part of Solusek's Key after /open the skelly container.
https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=33435
Hand 3 of Part of Solusek's Key to Neerin.
[Wed Aug 23 10:09:30 2006] Neerin says ''Still alive eh? And what's this? Surely the gods must be smiling on you.' Neerin takes the 3 parts of the key and begins to chant softly to himself. A small but brilliant ball of light begins to engulf his cupped hands. When the light recedes you see the key reformed as if it had never been broken. 'Here you go. Now be off with you! Your destiny awaits.' As you walk away you notice a twinkle in his eye and a slight but mischievous smile across his face. It is not until sometime later that you realize that Neerin wasn't nearly as wounded as you remember when you first met him.'
I did not receive more message and any item. /key and flag message didn't change any.
After a few days, My necro try to enter to Lair of Solusek Ro. But I could not enter with message that 'You do not meet the requirements for entering that zone.'.
My necro have flag with
https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=3018
This quest just bypass kill 5 named flag for holder to regular flag of Tower of Solusek Ro I think.

In days gone by, I remember the flowers and the sky
Aggro range in this zone is huge. Went there to have a break from OoW zones and see how it was... Pulled the two wanderers no problem - definitely easier than level 65 mobs in OoW.
The enchanter then went to try to pacify one of the two mobs by one of the doors, but they aggroed before she was in spell range (pacification has range 200).
She now has Aneuk Vision (+20% range) so we were thinking of trying again.
Does anyone know if 240 range will be enough to pacify without getting aggro?
Edit: Although I've just realised that Pacify spells are flagged as "beneficial" (for some reason), so Aneuk Vision ain't gonna help much :)

I sent my chanter in there last night...as far as I know I do not have an extended range item on...and I was able to pull a single from the guards. It was just a matter of staying close to the wall and taking very small steps until paci would take...
I am an enchie and use Wand of the Ice Storm which has extended range on it and have never had a problem getting singles from zone in all the way to Jiva's door in his tower.
When 2 are near, approach at an angle, paci closest, then pacify 2nd closest, then pull the first one.

Most mobs in this zone are mezzable so just pretarget and mezz the second on on the pull. Can usually pull and get only one or two if carefull.
Has anyone actually found a way to get alt access to chamber? I tried farming the 3 parts and I know a guildee who killed all 5 minis after alt access to Sol Ro, but no chamber..
With the new quest for access to SolRo Tower, what would be the progression needed to be elemental flagged assuming no back-flagging? So far, I haven't seen anything on this topic yet. With the access to the tower can everything be bypassed except killing the 5 minis in SolRo and RztW for access to air, earth and water and then SolRo for fire access? I was wondering if this is correct or am I overlooking something?

The only way to have access to the elemental planes is to either progress as you had before the alternate access was available or kill the god in the zone. ie. if you kill Fennin Ro, you no longer need to be willed in to the plane of fire, or if you kill xegony, you will be allowed into the plane of air without will in. remember, the intent of alt access quests was not to make it so that anyone can get into certain zones, it was to enable people in EP/Time guilds to access the zone without missing the 85%/15% cut.

There is a new mob here called "A sun lord". I think he was lvl 70, he was red at 67. He dropped "First Part of Solusek's Key". Found him in the room with the stone to get in the tower you get to by taking all rights from zone in.
lvl 65 Shaman slowed
65 War tank (5309 hp 68aa)
Mob did 128 dps
Max hit 1375
Avg hit 514
Mob took 85,298 melee dmg (total health prolly 90-100k hp depending if the shaman dotted. Cleric/Shaman/Ranger were the only spell casters with us (spells not counted in mob's dmg taken)).

If he's inside how can he be for the new access since you need access to talk to him.

There is a different quest for access to Sol Ro's tower. Talk to the new drake outside of PoFire (Ronar Flametip) and he sends you to WW to collect a heart from an Efreeti there. This new npc is problaby to do a quest for access to Sol Ro's chamber.
in theory, you get 85ed in then unflagged turns it into him and gets full access or so i have been told
a guy named "Neerin" is in the northwest corner of main zone in room, cons blue to 67, when hailed says "I have nothing for you right now. Be gone from my sight!", he cons indiff to me regularly and in wolf form, and does not attack, probably for alternate sol ro access

Anyone know what the key to enter Sol Ro is called now that the patch has come out so we just need an item dropped off a mob to enter it? And any other keys to planes for that fact lol.

All trials named are red at 70? Were these mobs buffed up on release of OOW?
Until now, one could never be 100% sure what the mobs levels were. Just that they were 68 or beyond since they were red to 65's. Now, with 70, we're going to find some mobs we thought were 70, but may have been higher.
Set up camp just below the middle ramp that goes to solro chamber and jiva stairs... 2boxed these guys and the guards and roamers.
What I got, only 2boxing, in 7 hours:
2 ornate helm mold
1 ornate greaves mold
1 ornate vambraces mold
2 ornate chain helm pattern
2 ornate silk bracelet pattern
1 ornate silk sleeve pattern
No lie... camped it 8/29/04 for 7 hours and got all that. I'd reccommend this camp to anyone. The focus of sol seemed to have about the same drop rate as the guards for ornate, but were a lot faster to kill. Bring someone to dispel them if you plan to camp there, they have a decent damage shield that they instantly cast upon spawning just like the lava guardians in solb. Also, every mob at or near that camp summons except the little dc mephit on the right.
by far the best nate farmin day I've ever had. I would also say that my results are not typical. I usually get 1-2 pieces in 7 hours.

The other day in The Tower we killed The Protector of Dresolik, and 4 "warders of Dresolik spawned back one room from The Protectors, (farther away from the pot). We were there for the flag so we ignored them, but I was wondering if anyone knew what they were for? It seems odd to me that there are 3 types of mobs which are guards for some guy named Dresolik but he is not in the game. I thought maybe you keilled the 4 warders and he would spawn but im not sure. Any info would be appreciated.
Warders are there to keep others from sneaking up and taking flag - they'll DT anyone who goes near them.
The Dresolik is the stone in the center of the room, it holds a part of the power of the elemental plane of fire that was siphoned by Solusek.
The entrance to zone in is at the stone circle (through the archway just past Plane of Justice) in Plane of Tranquility. It is the center stone.. the one to the left of Halls of Honor. EQ Toolbox released new maps a few weeks ago, very accurate.

To enter this "plane" you need saryrn, bertoxx, mith marr, Keeper of Sorrows, Carprin, Grummus, Terris Thule, Hedge Maze, PoJ trial, HoH trials, Manaetic Behemoth, Vallon Zek, Tallon Zek/
Ornate armor has a chance to drop from every mob in the zone, only thing that doesn't drop are robes/BPs.
All the mobs summon, most aren't rootable/snareble, most are mezzable/charmable, they hit 600-700ish, about like kriegers in BoT, slowable.
Towers can be good exp if you have the group to do them with, some of the mobs in them hit quite hard and/or AE, so beware.
The only zone out in this zone is after killing Solusek Ro, a trap door opens that either zones you into PoFire, or 20ks you, depending on if you are flagged or not.
Mobs are about 3/4 blue aa per kill, or 3%. the yardtrash, give or take depending on the mob con.

Was told all mobs now summon in this zone, and is no longer soloable? is this true, any help is appreciated.
Pretty much everything summons. There was an exploit what allowed people to nuke from a spot and not get hit, so they changed it so that everything summons. Potentially you could still solo it as a mage or chanter charming an elemental, but it'd be your *** when the charm breaks. Best thing to do is bring a decent group, once slowed a single group can take about 4 mobs at once depending on their capabilities.
You get about 1 AA per hour there steady killing at 65.
Nothing there can be snared, most if not all are immune to root. Most things you will come across grinding will be mezzable.
-Drachine, 65 Mage <Drinal>

It is sad reading this considering that in the new Serpents Spine expansion you can solo red level 75 mobs all day.
Why would anyone want to go to these old zones with such unforgiving mobs?
