In the second earring this text is wrong.
Quote: When you give him the crunchies you get a note or something to Torsten then you run back and forth relaying messages between the two.
Bregun gives you a "Bixie Charm" which in turn you give to Torsten. You then give a Note back to Bregun, then a Book back to Torsten with your first Earring to get #2. (just to clear that up, as I was confused myself).
If you do not wish to make the Bixie Crunches to get the charm, simply kill Bregun and loot the Bixie Charm yourself.

EZ_MiriamelePrester
02-12-02, 04:23 PM
Wolfform works for the hand-in, BUT wolfform is KOS to everyone else in Sseru. (So I just used Egress to get out).
The guard that attacks was only hitting me for 50 half the time. The other half he just missed. I could of rooted him then gated but was in a hurry.

I got the bixie charm off bregun (by killing him) and gave the charm back to Torsten and got nothing in return. I did get the message saying "here is the note, ect" but I did not get the note. I killed bregun again and gave Torsten the charm again with the same result.
I used sneak for the turn in...Do you need a high faction with Torsten no matter what to actually recieve the note?
EZ_Tynk Mindrifter
02-12-02, 10:39 PM
use minor illusion
wolfform works as well
have someone invis you AFTER you opent he trade window to the file cabinet
then press trade
use hide sneak
this guy who spawns to kick your arse; guard harlgar summons and hits rather hard but can be mezzed
perhaps charmed
he cannot however br slowed or feared

Abbu: I had Indifferent faction turning in the Bixie Charm, and got the Note in my inventory.
Also note, Custos Armorum etc. are all level 60. They can triple for 127 or so. Most are hasted as well. That's a HUGE jump in difficulty from Earring 2 to Earring 3. However the stats are a HUGE jump as well. 2 to 6.

I recently did the second earring with a cleric friend. Being a druid, I invised him after he opened the trade window with the File Cabinet. Then I invised myself. He clicked trade, got the report, the guard popped, but didn't attack because he couldn't see us. I laughed my head off. Save yourself the grief by taking a druid with you to do the exchange and have the druid invis himself as well as you and you won't get a scratch.
Personally, I don't see the earring being worth the trouble. I killed the four mobs in Seru with one of the top guilds on my server. It's way too much trouble for an earring no better than an Ivandyr's Hoop.
EZ_Fenchu
02-13-02, 01:26 PM
hmm not sure how Ivandyrs comes remotely close to the 4th earring...
First off you dont need to kill the Head Praesertums for earring 3....this earring is somewhat comprable but can you upgrade Ivandyrs hoop to an ac15 with buku stats ear??
So while the lower earrings may not "seem" worth it, they lead to a much more desireable ear slot then the hoop so many people want to compare this to..

how do u kill the consilliums? i have the 2nd earring and am now apprehensive or dubious. i have realized after i kill a few consilliums i will be KoS to seru. having heard the rare drop rate of the reports i realize i may need to go back several times. i have checked each building and some things see invise so all i can think is to use a coth mage or a raid scale invasion to each building. peopel say they duo with a shammy and melee, but once u are kos thats not even remotely possible without a coth.. need info guys

I "think" Torsten is on Katta faction, but I wouldn't swear to it. Would make sense though, since he is from Katta.
EZ_Tramddark Luxdeorum
02-21-02, 04:02 PM
Torsten is Validus Custodus faction.
EZ_Abbu
02-21-02, 04:32 PM
The general consensus of the first two threads was that Torsten was on Heart of Seru faction. People talked about killing rescusos on hours on end to raise their sseru faction. With some knowledge of the story behind this quest one would conclude that this is false and killing the rescusos is not needed. It would seem logical to me that Torsten is on Katta Faction, perhaps Validos Custodus.
As far as faction needed. I have tried to get earing one twice now. I was threateningly with torsten and used sneak (im a monk) to raise my faction to indifferent. I gave the bixie charm to torsten and got his text saying "here is the note to bregun" but the note did NOT appear in my inventory. I then did the quest over again with the same faction and got the SAME result. I'm thinking you MUST have indifferent or higher faction to get earing 1. Indifferent without invis/sneak/hide that is.
I'll be working on the 4reports FIRST before I get the first earing. Why? I need Validos Custodos faction for the first earing. Killing the guards the drop the reports im assuming give +validos custodos faction and therefore I'll be killing two birds with one stone.
P.S-I would not read the previous threads on this topic. They will confuse you more then anything. The only thing I'd like to add is that you can kill bregun for the bixie charm. I think everything else is pretty nicely summed up in the first post in this thread....
Locations of the quest mobs here-
www.phank.com/veracityprintable
Update: Double check your bank for a note to bregun dory. I killed mobs in echo caverns and looted this note, before I heard of this quest. I forgot I had it , and this was the reason why i was not recieving the note back. It had nothing to do with sneak and sneak does work for earing 1/2. I got them being scowl, and using sneak.

Quote: Appolohades: Instead of being an ass you should realize the first two 10+ page threads on this quest did nothing but CONFUSE people. Posting that link will only confuse people more. Perhaps that is why we are seeing so many questions, on this pretty simple quest.
Now go read my post again. Exactly where was I being an ass?
Let's start with a few things: One, School is a good thing. Learn to spell moron. The name is Apollohades. Simple enough if you've ever picked up a single book that had oh... mythology in it. Bulfinch is a good start, but I think it's beyond you and Curious George books.
Two: I asked for links you inbred twit. If you had graduated from the 4th grade you may have been able to decipher that with your batman decoder ring.
Three: It's my understanding that the mods don't like it when people bring up the same thing in several different posts, hence, number 2, my asking for those links. I wanted to go through what people had to say myself. Unlike you, I decided to skip out on eating lead paint. I like to think for myself.

Ok guys, we understand that the reports in the consilliums for earring 3 are rare. How about some clue as to how rare? On my server, the estimation is that the various guilds working on it have killed appx 700 of these mobs between them, and not a one of us has gotten a single note. Is this really how rare they are or do we have some sort of loot table issue going on? We've been trying for notes for 3 weeks now. No one has gotten a single one.

I'm not sure why it's taking a majority of you so long to get a report. You say you camp them for x amount of hrs and x amount of NPC's. Are you killing the right mobs? It took me maybe 4 total hours to collect all 4. I have the 3rd earring now, and working on my last 2 shards. If yer questioning whether or not you're killing the right mobs, just focus on those mobs that guard the two portals in each consillium. Kill the 2 on the bottom, then move to the top floor and kill those mobs by the portal. Each consillium holds a different amount of report NPC's, with Heart being the most frequently dropped. Good luck to you guys.

02-23-02, 05:58 AM
Heya Xeffo! Xev is treating me well, hope things are going well on Povar. Anyway, as far as I can tell, you need Universus Concillium Faction to get more UC faction via quest. However, I just read a post on these very boards that shows you can kill Seru Heart folks to raise UC faction thru the good ole fashioned way of slaughtering mobs. Just my luck, I had killed, Eye, Shoulder, and Hand guards but not Heart guards so I wasnt sure how to fix UC faction.
pub35.ezboard.com/fthesaf...4203.topic
Once back to dubious, I'll do a few quests for the UC folks. Theres a gnome who wants grimling picks(sets of 4 I think) and a few other quests that arent too hard to do. .

02-25-02, 05:47 AM
A few answers that may help. Apologies as some will be in thread already somewhere perhaps.
Yes you can kill Bregun for the charm. If he isn't up then go buy the cider in Sanctus and hand to the correct guard. The Guard isn't always up it seems, there are 3 up usually, dunno if he was killed or despawned tho. Helps to have a tracker to find Bregun of course, if you don't he pops in Trog caves in a corner junction and is small
Bregun made me work damn hard to kill him as a 57 Epic ranger. He has alot of HP but not particularly MR. No Faction hit.
Euzan was to be found on the 2nd floor of the building at that location, in a little room by himself facing a bookshelf.
Yes the Filing Cabinet can be tracked (Picture it now, Ranger stops, gestures to his party...i have spore..it seems to be quite fresh from the dung..its..its..a FILING CABINET!!)
Sneaking or wolf form works for the hand in. Unless using the partner to invis you a guard will attack, easy kill at 57 tho he did summon me. No Faction hit.

just curious, how big are the faction hits when turning the items in for 1 and 2? I'm dubious to 2 of the factions and don't wanna screw up my faction there just quite yet.
Lenardo
02-25-02, 07:52 AM
faction hits are not that bad - 3rd earring is where the factions start to go kos-since it requires killing.
and 4th forget about it-requires killing the minibosses.
there are 4 mini bosses one in each of the "guild buildings"
go inside the building to the top of the steps then go around to one of the 2 corridors walk to end and click on the translucent shield to get to floor 4 in the center is a door with 2 guards inside door is a conference table, and another door, thru that door is the miniboss - all the buildings are pretty much exactly the same.
boss names:
rhugol
matpa
vantorus
bikun
the fights require strategy since:
1: the boss will NOT path out beyond the conference room
2: boss has a dain like process-bout 1 player every 12seconds or so.
3: walls are BAD---poofing problems in seru and fighting against walls.
oh and the reports drop from other spawn than the 4 listed.....
but...
unless you have earring 4 basically done you cannot get to where they are. Edited by: lenardo at: 2/25/02 10:55:35 am

I was unable to get Bregun to respawn after killing him for the Bixie Charm. After I got the charm I took it to Torsten Reidan and received the note to Bregun, but he wasn't up (since I killed him), so I decided to try to spawn him with the Cider. I got the 'he is in the Trog caves somewhere' message from the guard (Dalanai (sp?)) he didn't pop. I thought that I broke the quest until the next server restart when I killed Bregun.
I also redid the first part of the quest where you take the two bark potions and two crystals to the guy in Marus Seru to try and get the guard to spawn to no avail.

EZ_Anville
02-25-02, 04:17 PM
Did the first and 2nd earring lastnight for a friend. Dalini depops and pops in place of other guards. There is no need to kill them. Just wait a bit and you'll see them change.
As for Bregun Dorey, just have whoever is doing the quest buy 2 Dawnshroud ciders. One is to spawn Bregun after handing into Dalini, then killing Bregun to get the charm. The second cider is used again to spawn Bregun after the fact you killed him It worked lastnight, and took us a little under 1 hr to do both 1 and 2.

Easy way to skip a lot of steps on the 1st earring:
Kill one of the Scounds in plate armor in Echo Caverns in front of the SK/Warrior/Rogue guild. They are easy.. hit for 120's, 8.5k HP, and very small MR. They drop "Sealed Letter to Bregun Dorey" for some odd reason. Whether it's a bug, I don't know, but they do drop it. Hand a Cider into the Legionnaire in Netherbain to spawn Bregun. Turn in the letter, lalala you just skipped a bunch of steps.

Not sure why your Mith Marr Paladin was KoS...
My Erollisi Marr Paladin and Tunare Cleric are not KoS anywhere in Sanctus Seru or Katta for that matter.
Dubious, sure... but not KoS.
EZ_Tyknee
02-25-02, 08:12 PM
Just something to lend to the discussion:
Assuming you are KoS to both Katta and Seru factions (which means your probably worship Inny or Cazic, if my theory is correct) the best way to go about this quest is to jump straight to killing the 'report dropping mobs'. This will do 2 things. First, factions in Seru are wierd, killing one faction may raise others. You will also be raising Katta factions as you go.
After mindless hours of killing these guys (at least that's what it sounds like, I personally havn't tried yet), you will most likely be non KoS to some Seru factions, and hopefully non-KoS to Katta as well. At this point, head out to Mars Seru (The zone that is right outside Seru, not Dawnshroud, the other one), and kill Recusvos. The only faction you don't get from doing this is Citizens of Seru (which isn't really important because the merchants are on Shoulder) and Seru (who cares because your going to be killing him anyway, that is why your doing the quest, right?).
You need Katta to get the quest from the NPCs and Seru to be able to walk into the city. As someone else posted before, yeah you could go on some sort of psycho killing spree and kill everything in the zone, therefor not having to get Seru faction, however if your server is like the one I just quit because of, half the people don't know where Seru is, nor who Katta is, or why they hate each other.
DISCLAIMER: Please note that I have not done step 1 of this quest because of the Katta faction requirements. I am not basing my post off of knowledge of the quest, just off my knowledge of the faction system on Luclin.

could anyone post faction hits recieved from each house?
EZ_Malherim
02-27-02, 01:57 AM
Killing in Heart (or any one) lowers faction with that house and with sseru, and raises it with the other 3 houses and katta. The faction pluses are much worse then the minus' though, after fighting for a few hours in eye consillium i was max kos to them and amiable to the rest.

Yesterday was my first run for the report ... we was fighting in the Hearth temple and we killed approx of 15-16 guard and no guard dropped report ... The report is supposed to be VERY VERY rare ?
And i was wondering how much peep does it take to kill the temple leader ? 2-3-4-5 group ? How many hp ? How hard they hit ?
There 9-10 of those guard per temple right ? i just want to be sure im killing the good guys...
Thx

go hit one, then go from there about formulating your strategy on fighting, how many to bring, , etc.

Thanks to all that have posted so far. I don't think there are many folks on my server doing these quests as Sanctus is ALWAYS empty. Anyway, just a little info to add and 1 question. After doing most of the Sanctus Quests, Eye of Trust, Praetors Blade, Zelniak Meat x 500, etc. and also doing most of the Katta quests that I couls as well, I am now KOS to the Arx. I was hit by one of those guardians as I was walking through and it took me by surprise. I imagine these are on thier own faction, as I don't see them linked to eye,heart,hand, or shoulder.
My quesiton is what lvl are the earring 3 mobs? I mean the ones in the 4 houses that drop the reports, and how many people are needed to take them out. They con red to me at 51, and was trying to figure how many I should bring..I imagine they would be good exp.
Thanks again for posts til now and any info forthcoming.

They are lvl 60
Unstuntable
Unmezzable
They quad for around 170
Tash + slow + cripple = gimp guard
Took 5 peep there 3 lvl 60 2 lvl 58
2 60 warrior
1 60 wiz
1 58 cleric
1 58 Shaman
The guard was very easy once they were slowed. Alot of hp. The only thing sucked is when you go upstair to kill more guard then the 2 who spawn on 3rd floor there a couple of roamer guard who can add to the fight so that can be a pain since the guard can be pally chanter (well in hearth temple)
So far i killed 20 guard and no report so i ll be back this week-end

A few friends and I got our second earrings and decided we'd try for the 60th mobs to get the reports. We had a 60th Warrior, 60th Cleric, 59th and 58th Rangers. With defensive up the max they hit me for was 116, the rest were in the 80-100 range but they hit fast.
We took them out fairly easy but with the cleric down to 1m after each one. The other mobs on the floor will not aggro through the doors, so your only concern are pats in the hallway. The mobs wearing the robes dispell so I would suggest you crap buff before attacking those. I would also suggest that you have a full standard group for these as to reduce downtime and to be prepared for any adds.

Thank you, of everything I've read on the quest this was the most helpful info at all, since this info tells me I need not bother. I may do up to earring 2 just for faction/fun but thats it
I'd actually have trouble getting people from my guild to go there and kill these 4 people anyway, since non kill in seru in the first place, but to do it for 30 hours is definately out of the question. The third earring is very nice, my 55 druid would use it, but its not worth this. As I say I'd go for it if people were doing seru for xp in the first place, but I don't know anyone who is.
I guess I'll hold out for the various rare earrings that we seem to be getting sometimes on big luclin or other boss guild raid mobs.

After camping reports on a few diffrent occasions in a couple diffrent houses and not getting any luck i researched this thread again..
I noticed somone post that he got 4 reports in 4 hours killing the mobs near the portal in each consillium. After reading that my group clicked on the porter zone to the portion of the consillium where we we'ren't fighting (the side your on when heading towards the exit from sseru) and killed the guard there. Not sure if it was just luck but the first one we killed dropped a report. This was in the eye consillium and the mob who dropped it was chealed about 7 times through the wall.
Our group then broke up to go to a raid and i haven't been back since, but I was wondering if other ppl noticed that the guards right next to the portals dropped reports more frequently, or if anyone had gotten a report off a diffrent guard. These may be less rare then we think if we kill the correct mobs.

The above log was Linina attacking from inside the room. When I attacked from outside the room (on the table) I got sent to the dungeon. Then I gated her back to the table room and he came out and killed Linina again.
Here is the log in case it may help:
Here is me nuking from the second room:
[Mon Mar 04 13:06:20 2002] You begin casting Scoriae.

Dungeoned here - then I gate back up with him still mad.
[Mon Mar 04 13:06:33 2002] Praesertum Vantorus glares at you threateningly -- what would you like your tombstone to say?
[Mon Mar 04 13:06:37 2002] You begin casting Gate.
[Mon Mar 04 13:06:42 2002] Praesertum Vantorus says 'Odd. You look far less foolish than you actually are. No matter. Legionnaires, to me! '
[Mon Mar 04 13:06:44 2002] Praesertum Vantorus says 'Odd. You look far less foolish than you actually are. No matter. Legionnaires, to me! '
[Mon Mar 04 13:06:44 2002] Praesertum Vantorus says 'Odd. You look far less foolish than you actually are. No matter. Legionnaires, to me! '
Those messages are him inside his room pissed off. I am in the outter room. Then he pops onto linina (in the table room) and the door guards run in to kill Linina:
[Mon Mar 04 13:06:48 2002] You can't reach that, get closer.

He sends you to the ones down near the PvP arena. A bit of a walk back to him. Very funny infact.

Assisted my druid and he popped out of nowhere and attacked me cause i hit him. Zoned came back and i could see him /shrug.

I do not see any explaination to kill the prae's. I see a few comments on what they do, but no answer to avoid the jailing, or to stop them from doing it. Resist biting peoples heads off please.

What items are no drop in these quests, and are the earrings themselves no drop? Also wondering if anyone knows what those faction hits actually translate into (ie. kos in... or what?) Thanks to anyone who might be able to clear things up for me a bit.

cannot coh in the zone-well the arx building atleast
coh really is not mana efficient for getting people back to the fights.
it WOULD work, but at 12 seconds PER cast + the recharge, takes a bit too long.
my problem is..while my guild has the most keys on the server, NOONE wants to hunt the reports..... Edited by: lenardo at: 3/13/02 3:12:14 pm

you obviously have not spent nearly as much time here as you should.
If you have, you would know that CoH does work in this zone, just not in Seru's Arx building. If you didnt know this, you probably shouldnt be attemping to kill one yet

03-18-02, 05:28 PM
Ok, I'm a bit confused. I've done the first 2 earrings no problem, and now I'm on to the third.
From what I understand, I need to kill one particular mob in each of the 4 consillium buildings (the Hand/Heart/Shoulder/Eye buildings surrounding the Arx, in the center of Sanctus Seru).
I was exploring the consillia yesterday. They all seem to be identical in layout, with a few minor differences; on the top floor of each is a hallway that leads to a mob guarding one of those translucent teleporter panels. If you click the teleporter panel, you are teleported into a warren of tunnels beneath that consillium, inside which you will find many more of that type of mob. For example, on the third (top) floor of the Consillium of the Heart, you will find a Lictor of the Heart guarding the portal, at coordinates (-727, -624, +122). If you click on the portal he/she is guarding, you will find yourself in a maze of tunnels filled with many many more Lictors of the Heart.
WHICH OF THESE MOBS DROPS THE REPORT? The initial post indicates that the guardian NPCs on the third floor are the ones that actually drop the report -- but many of the posts in this thread indicate that the reports drop off the mobs from the underground mazes. If I only have to kill 4 NPCs to do this quest (3 of them conned even at 60, and one conned red), rather than farming them for endless hours, my faction will not go down nearly as fast, which is (to me) preferable.
If anyone has PERSONALLY killed the 3rd-floor guardian NPCs I've referred to, and had them drop the reports, then answer me this: Do they drop the report every time, or am I better off farming underground? What's the respawn time? How hard are they (HP/max damage)? Do they cast any spells? Will other NPCs assist them? What's the safest way to kill them? Pleased be detailed and specific
Thanks in advance.

On another note...
If you're looking for Legionnaire Dalini in Netherbian, he can spawn at either of the two static guard posts right next to the Marus Seru zoneline. There are 3-4 other guards who can spawn there, also, and there's no faction hit for killing these guards -- they respawn in about 12 minutes, so if Dalini's not up, just start smacking them down until he respawns. (The wandering guard who paths from Marus Seru down toward the central pillar is not a placeholder for Dalini.) Giving the items to Reothe in Marus Seru does NOT trigger Dalini or have any apparent affect on him, so you can skip that part of the quest completely, if you're so inclined.
Also, Bregun Dorey does not despawn when you give him the Bixie Crunchies or the Note to Bregun, so once Bregun is up, you can have any number of people finish that part of the quest. Killing Bregun is not hard, but it's also unfriendly, especially since Bixie Crunchies are so easy to get (triv at 46, and bixie parts drop commonly -- any vendor in Misty Thicket is likely to have some on them that they bought from a player).

Where are You found the reports please ?
EZ_metopious
03-19-02, 12:41 PM
As stated on the first page these are the mobs that drop the reports:
Heart Consilium: Lictor of the heart (N 727, N 624, P 122)
Hand Consilium: Signifier of the hand (N 839, P 62, P 122)
Eye Consilium: Vigilum Cohortis (N 124, N 643, P 122)
Shoulders Consilium: Custos Armorum (N 19, P 67, P 122
Its endless farming, there is no single mob that "always drops it". I'd say report drops are like 1 in 50-75mobs killed will have one.

Thx useless ambiguous replies la ~
My whole friggin' POINT was that ONLY ONE MOB spawns at the coordinates given in the first post (which I have now read about 30 times) and repeated a couple posts prior to this one. Do the mobs down in the maze drop the reports AT ALL, or do ONLY the mobs on the 3rd floor guarding the teleporters drop the report, and you just have to wait for them to respawn over and over, or can you go down into the maze, and farm all the mobs down there for the reports?

EZ_Nalilya
04-05-02, 10:14 PM
Ok, I havn't even gotten this far in the quest so am just throwing my own thoughts in.
Santus Seru is a city, therefore you could bind there. If everyone binds and a wiz waits in the dungeon, couldn't he just TL banished people back to bind, which could be right back at the fight?

You might not be able to bind in/near the conference rooms though...will have to check on that. If so, that is a nice idea - a lot easier than a CoH mage in each group.

yes you can kill the ones in the underground maze, no they dont drop them every time, in fact your eyeballs will fall out before one drops, yes others assist them, yes some cast spells

The 4th floor mobs have an hour spawntime, which means even with the minimal report camping group (tank/cleric/yawn) you'll be sitting around for at least a half hour at a time.
I reccomend hititng the video store first.

Just a note, when you turn in the modified reports to the file cabinet, minor illusion does not work, atleast it didn't for me. However, he was light blue to me at level 57, hit me for 53 max (only hit me 4 times) and I had no trouble mezzing him. I'm sure casters could root and run, chanters should be able to mez easily. Melee's will have a tougher time...I'd say use the invis trick, or just kill him if you can.

Update, that little guy in Neth, Hes not a push over, almsot kicked my butt at 59, ended up kiting him up and down hall, lucky i had a tolans bracer to summon arrows, so its not a pushover like a previous post about a 57 ranger taking him. Took me too OOM and down to one bub of health before i bolted and did this many times before i killed him. I dont want to do that again. Also after the first ring I was trying to find the filing cabinet and conning all mobs and this yellow pop right on top and starts beating me so be sure and start conning after u start the faction goes fast espically if ind or dub.

Where can I look for Lcea Katta and Elnerick Augustleaf? I thnk they are in Katta, but have searched all likely upper level buildings, 'cept the Caster building with no luck. I am not certain, but it appears as if EA is on the "caster" faction in Katta?
EZ_Talras Prexus
05-03-02, 11:31 PM
EDITED: Lcea Katta spawns in the same building where Phenic resides (building with a garden in the front yard) Go up the stairs and take a left and then another left, and then a right before you reach the church area with the empty peus (sp) and the Alter.
Elnerick Augustleaf spawns in the same building in one of the rooms on the first floor.
You may find Lcea's room empty for one simple reason: people kill her almost immediately after she spawns, because she has some decent loot for an easy encounter. Not sure exactly what her spawn time is, I've heard 3 days, 7 days, and random.
Hope this helps, good luck. Edited by: Talras Prexus at: 5/4/02 12:34:53 am
