New PoH Quest ?

[EZ_Escado]

Was in PoH Yesterday to look around. Got an Item I cant remember, so I guess its new.

Minor Signet of the Dark Knight.

Someone got some useful Infos. Sounds like SK Quest..

[EZ_Javan Transient]

In Greater Faydark, just outside the spires are 2 new NPC's.

[Wed May 14 15:48:47 2003] You say, 'Hail, Seana Marsinger'
[Wed May 14 15:48:47 2003] Seana Marsinger says 'Hello, my name is Seana Marsinger. I am here representing my loyalty to the League of Antonican Bards. It matters not to me whether you support the League or loathe it propaganda is not my objective. Everyone must find their own truths in this life path, so says Quellious. To business then, are you [familiar with the Plane of Hate?]'

[Wed May 14 15:49:00 2003] You say, 'I am familiar with the plane of hate'
[Wed May 14 15:49:00 2003] Seana Marsinger says 'Good, I need someone that has a bit of an eye for how things should look up there. My brother and I have been studying Innoruuk and his intricate dealings for years. Being raised in New Tanaan may lend us certain neutrality towards all people, yet the values our parents have instilled in us do not allow us to let him go unwatched. In fact, I have begun to believe that my paranoia may prove useful not only to the League, but to the Citizens of Tranquility and New Tanaan itself as well. We have received a simple [piece of intelligence] that may conceivably upset the entire balance of the Pantheon and have most dire repercussions here in Norrath.'

[Wed May 14 15:49:57 2003] You say, 'what piece of intelligence'
[Wed May 14 15:49:57 2003] Seana Marsinger says 'An old friend of our father's in Qeynos, Jusean Evanesque, has been very busy sorting out the information that is coming to him in droves. The first clue came from Kardin Nillic in Gunthak, and then in bits and pieces from many travelers moving through Qeynos. Piracy on the seas has grown, and somehow the Broken Skull Clan has gained power that should have been out of their grasp. Our informants there say that it can only come from Innoruuk. I am afraid that the Plane itself has shifted with this power. I do not believe that we will be able to uncover all that we need [alone] in time to warn people of the dangers.'

[Wed May 14 15:52:48 2003] You say, 'why are you alone?'
[Wed May 14 15:52:48 2003] Seana Marsinger says 'Our parents are back in Qeynos assisting Jusean with all that needs to be verified and ensuring that the League's network contacts are all still viable. They will need to stay there in case we must get the word out quickly. I do not believe that any of the residents of Tanaan would approve of our little quest, and would view it as biased. Thus we are here alone. Does this type of project you?'

At this point it diverges based on class.

Wizard, Enchanter, Mage get :
[Wed May 14 15:53:13 2003] Zyramus says, 'I am interested'
[Wed May 14 15:53:13 2003] Stefan Marsinger takes a moment to size you up. 'You appear to be a practitioner of pure magic, am I correct?'

[Wed May 14 15:53:30 2003] Zyramus says, 'you are correct'
[Wed May 14 15:53:30 2003] Stefan Marsinger says 'I believe it is safest if you study those who have similar interests as yourself. Travel to the Plane of Hate and observe the revenant, the ashenbone drake, and the loathing lich. They seem to be the main practitioners of your art in the least dangerous area. My interaction with these creatures has been mostly at a distance, and I am not as familiar with them as I would like. If you survive long enough to uncover some type of signet that proves you have been studying these creatures, and truly wish to aid with this cause, bring it to me along with some vampire dust and a diamond. I can craft you protective item and may have some further work for you to do.'

Cleric, Shaman get similar asking for stuff from Cleric of Hate or Spite Golem + Vampire Dust + Diamond

Warrior are asked for Abhorent, Repulsive Rat, or Kirikuei + Abhorent Powder + Jacinth

Ranger was asked for Ghast, Scorn Banshee, or Haunted Chest + Abhorent Pwder + Jacinth.


Thats all the classes I've run through. Never seen a signet drop (was going to try the armor they drop, but now that a signet was found, I guess that means its just rare). [i]

[EZ_Javan Transient]

Addendum. My cleric has:

"Ghast Fingerbones"
Magic, Lore, No Drop
wt 0.0
None/None

When I gave it to quest giver she replied with "I don't need that". So either this is not the signet for the Ghasts (for rangers) or it *is* but the quests are not MQ'able.

[EZ_Perciful Pellinore]

Paladin was asked for Ghast, Scorn Banshee, or Haunted Chest + Abhorent Pwder + Jacinth.

Maybe true for all hybrids.

Yeah, sounds like it's divided by pure caster, pure melee, priest and hybrid.

[EZ_Teaamilie]

Got two signets this evening after goofing off for an hour. Dropped off ghasts so we had the paladins present loot them.

Paladin tried to turn in jacinth, powder, and signet. NPC ate the powder adn jacinth, returned the signet. Edited by: Teaamilie at: 5/18/03 5:24:38 pm

[EZ_Darkedge Thornblade]

Rogue is asked to hunt Abhorrents, Repulsive Rats, and Kuraikuei's.

They want rogues to collect a minor signet, Abhorrent Powder, and a Jacinth. Just need the signet for me, anyone know what signet they mean?

-Darkedge-

[EZ_Javan Transient]

From what I can dig up, its a 3 step quest. Its broken down, as expected, into Priest, Caster, Hybrid, Melee.

First step listed above.
Second step you get a "greater signet" from the higher level versions of the same mob.
Third step you get a book from either Maestro or Inny.

Thats all i could find on Lucy and Magelo at the moment. Item id 54027-54029 are priest rewards, 30-32 are hybrid, 33-35 are melee, 36-38 are caster. I'll keep an eye out for new ones. Edited by: Javan Transient at: 5/18/03 7:03:07 pm

[ShadowCross]

Gah, why range slot?

As if there weren't enough stupid range-slot items already! *sigh*

But interesting quest.

[EZ_Pootlepennypincher]

and exactly how is this stupid?

I would shave off my foot hair for that item. FT3, and great stats... AND Saves! (on a PvP server, the more saves you haev on your normal gear the better)

[ShadowCross]

What I meant: There are already dozens of great range-slots items out there, and you can only use one. And us melee's are screwed with non-weapon range items too.

I'm not saying those items are bad.

Oh, and don't forget.. for the 3rd stage you need an item from Inno/Maestro.. which seem to be quite kick-ass... so I guess you need to be in a at least Tier3 or even Tier4 PoP-Guild to kill them.

[EZ_Teaamilie]

Second step takes the signet and another item, is that right? We had pure melee loot the Kiraikleui flesh.

[EZ_Javan Transient]

Right, step 2 = step 1 gem + greater signnet + "something"

The "something" seems to vary, Kirikeui flesh, hatebone, etc...

then step 3 is just step 2 gem + book

[EZ_Kenolas]

Kinda silly for a Ranger to do that quest. i mean what self respecting Ranger is gonna bag his bow for that and do less dmg with his blades? hmm just a though

[EZ_vidyan13]

along those lines, I have to agree that melees and rangers would be silly giving up their range slot, and casters already have tons of range items... if they're making these neat little things for us, and they're no drop, and lore, and all.
why not make them charm slot? since I only seem to hear complaints about charms, that would be a usefull alternative for a place to put a nifty buffing item like these. eh, just my 2cp.

[EZ_Sighkox Blumpkin]

Put a mob against a wall and a ranger's bow is worthles. Still seems like a lot of work if the best rewards are 75/75 range items.

[EZ_coruscare]

Yeah, as a ranger that would slightly piss me off. I don't want to swap stuff any more than necessary.

It should be made so that you could wear it as jewelry, Ear/Ring/Neck/Range.

[EZ_Siderius]

Be carefull of what you give in.
I am a pure caster and was asked to give in a signet to show i had done research on the creaturs and Vampire Dust and a Diamond.

I gave this items in and she ate Diamond and Vampire Dust. Gave Signet back telling me she didnt need that item.


Sid

[EZ_Vanidor Silverbranch]

A couple notes, there are Signets asked for but its not really clear if you have to have it
in inventory since some quests now require that.

Those classes needing the tradeable Vampire dust also need the more expensive Diamond versus
the rarer Jacinth + nodrop abohorrent powder.

Tested: Wizard had a Signet of the Dark Sorcerer from an Ashenbone drake. He had it returned
while vampire dust + gem was eatten. Similar to what Teaamilie posted.

Tested: handed in a regular bone chip, was returned. So she should only eat items she wants.


Suspect that the quest isn't quite as Javan has it, more like the following:
1st level: nodrop item from mobs + required powder + gem, possibly with a signet in inventory
2nd level: first level reward + signet
3rd level: second level reward + book from Maestro/Innoruuk


Hybrid
------
Study: Ghast, Scorn Bansheee, Haunted Chest
item + abohorrent powder(nodrop) + Jacinth

Known items from the above mobs:
Ghast Fingerbones (nodrop) (it was eaten/used according to one safehouse poster)


Int Casters
-----------
Study: Revenants, Loathing Liches, Ashenbone Drakes
item + vampire dust(tradeable) + Diamond

Known items from the above mobs:
Hatebone ??? (not really known by me, just mentioned in one spot and presumably from Drakes)


Priests
-------
Study: Cleric of Hate, Spite Golem
item + vampire dust(tradeable) + Diamond

Known items from the above mobs:


Pure Melee
----------
Study: Rat, Abhorrent, Kiraikuei
item + abhorrent powder(nodrop) + Jacinth

Known items from the abvoe mobs:
Kirakuei flesh (nodrop) (mob did eat/use it, not sure if the right one though)

[EZ_Javan Transient]

Quote:If you survive long enough to uncover some type of signet that proves you have been studying these creatures, and truly wish to aid with this cause, bring it to me along with some vampire dust and a diamond.

The item that drops for priests is:

"Minor Signet of the Dark Priest"

The NPC specifically asked for the signet + dust and diamond. I'm thinking the script got busted between test and live.

Update: On terris thule, the quest NPC returned the Hybrid signet and Caster signet, however the quest worked as intended for me as a priest. signet + diamond + dust = Gem of Faith. Edited by: Javan Transient at: 5/19/03 8:41:51 pm

[EZ_Vanidor Silverbranch]

Thanks Javan, after seeing Teaamilie's post and having watched what Siderius was trying I assumed it was only that the text was misleading, not that the caster/hybrid parts were broken.

WTS 'working as intended' quests to other multiplayer games and WTB just plain 'working' quests.

[EZ_Javan Transient]

Mystery solved.

It seems the old restraint in sony's quest engine is still in place. One NPC can not give 2 quests that require the same items (this was a problem in the Dozekar tear quests). since both caster and priest need vampires dust + diamond, it'll only work for one. Likewise melee and hybrid both want abhorent and jacinth.

An enchanter friend gave thet signet, dust, and diamond to the npc standing, and she ate the dust/diamond and returned the signet. Same with SK friend.

So, with a leap of intuitive faith, I had my wizard give the signet of sorcery, vampire dust, and diamond to Stefan (the nnpc that is sitting down). BINGO, got the caster gem.

So, net result:
Priests and Melee give to Seana Marsinger (the one standing)
Casters and Hybrids give to Stefan Marsinger (the one sitting)

Even though they BOTH give the SAME text asking for items from ALL 4 class types. GO SONY! Edited by: Javan Transient at: 5/20/03 10:39:27 am

[EZ_Escado]

Gave Stefan Marsinger Minor Signet of the Dark Knight, Abhorrent Powder and Jacinth.... he gave me Gem of Courage.... hybrid Quest item ..... just the problem I am Rogue

[EZ_Javan Transient]

Dark Knight = signet for hybrids.

Dark Soldier = signet for melee.

Dark Sorcerer = signet for casters.

Dark Priest = signet for priests.

[EZ_NiacinEQ]

Ok I've been stumped over this for a while and today finally me and some people figured it out.

Part 1 of the quest:

Give the Minor Signet + Diamond/Jac + Powder to one of the dudes.

**IMPORTANT**
As far as I know and from what I've tested:

The one sitting takes Hybrids/Casters.
The one standing takes Melee/Priest.
**IMPORTANT**

1st part recepies:

Priest = Minor Signet of the Dark Priest + Vampire Dust + Diamond

Hybrids = Minor Signet of the Dark Knight + Abhornet Dust + Jacinth

Melee = Minor Signet of the Dark Soldier + Abhornet Dust + Jacinth


Receive: Your first reward.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Part 2:

Give your first reward + a "crest" from the higher lvl versions of your mobs you had to kill for the signet + some mob dropped item.

2nd step recepies:

Priest = Gem of Faith (first reward) + Vengence Dust (off vengence golems) + Crest

Hybrids = Gem of Courage + Ghast Fingerbones + Crest

Melee = Gem of War + Khurikai (spelling) Flesh + Crest

Recive your second reward.



Stay tuned for 3rd part.

[Cattiliriel]

yay, melees get veng 3, casters ft3 .... why do i feel shafted again ?

[EZ_locospider]

Seems me as a wiz went and had same problem eat my dust but then i went back and looked who said they would craft me a item if i gave them the signia diamond and vampire dust, the male bard DID say it not the female , names are similar thow and its confusing =) FYI , belive same on hybirds, gm also did it and female bard replied to her

[EZ_locospider]

Whats 2nd piece for casters, the gem of sorcery , what els sorry didnt read when she said it , was speaking with a gm and missed it =\ guess i should of /log on

[EZ_NiacinEQ]

Whats the trigger for the 3rd part of the quest? The 2nd trigger is "what work?" But I need to know what the 3rd part is to know if this Tome of Dark Healing I got off Maestro is the part I need. Almost got part 2 done, just need a crest (which I blew yesterday trying to figure the first part out :\)

[EZ_artebus]

The text for the final quest is "I am ready for the final reconnaissance errand", although "I am ready for the final" works (and probably, "ready final" works).

Seana Marsinger asks for the Tome of Dark Healing from priest classes, and Dissertation of Dark War from pure meleers. Stefan Marsinger asks for the Compendium of Classic Torture from hybrids. Not sure what he requests from casters, although it's not hard to find out. So the piece NiacinEQ got off the Maestro is going to make some priest happy, I imagine.

Here's the quest text that I received as a bard (after the preliminary stuff about who they are and all that):

Stefan Marsinger says 'I believe it is safest if you study those who have similar interests as yourself. Travel to the Plane of Hate and observe the ghasts, scorn banshees, and haunted chests. They seem to share some qualities of your art and lie in the least dangerous areas. My interaction with these creatures has been mostly at a distance, and I am not as familiar with them as I would like. If you survive long enough to uncover some sort of minor signet that verifies you have been studying these creatures, and truly wish to aid with this cause, bring it to me along with some abhorrent powder and a jacinth. I can craft you protective item and may have some further work for you to do.'

Stefan Marsinger says 'Wonderful. Return to the plane and continue your studies of the hybrid demons. With the new information you have brought I believe we have a good framework of reference for the lower rankings of these beings, however there is a higher echelon of power that I will need to be familiar with. Seek out the Teir`Dal knights and grave lords of hate. All of these creatures should be within your area of study, but take care! Make sure to keep your protection with you at all times. Some of them should have a kind of Knight's crest symbolizing their rank; bring me this crest and some ghast fingerbones, along with your Gem of Courage. If you succeed in this task you are more valuable than I could have imagined, and I may need your skill with a final reconnaissance errand.'

Stefan Marsinger says 'In my personal studies I have heard rumor that there are four archaic tomes that contain some of Innoruuk's darkest secrets. I cannot ask you to uncover all four, I am not even certain that they exist. The fabled tomes are the Compendium of Classic Torture, Texts on Pain, Writ of Agony, and Tactical Hatred. If they do indeed exist and you manage to find them, you are far grander than I. The tome that I do seek will most likely lie in the hands of one of Innoruuk's own confidantes, and they seldom seem to show their faces. It is possible the Prince of Hate himself holds the tomes close. Find me the Compendium of Classic Torture; return it to me with your Gem of Courage and your work is finished.'


Each class type gets 4 books listed in the quest text, but oddly they are different for the different classes. Consulting with my guildmates, priests get books A, B, C, D listed (don't remember full name) and Seana asks for book A, and casters get E, B, C, D (that is, the last 3 books are the same, only the first differs) and Stefan asks for book E (naturally). I know that some of the books listed for meleers and hybrids also overlap, and the two books they are asked for are completely different from any of the books listed for the first two classes.

Basically, the complete quest text for all four classes mentions at least 10 different books, but only 4 of them are specifically requested. Are the other 6 books red herrings, or do they have some use? The text would seem to indicate that they'd care about the others, but that would assume that quest designers are sensible. :)

Also, has anyone gotten the requested books off mobs other than the Maestro or Innoruuk? The quest text seems to imply that other mobs might be able to drop it (the priest version even more so: "The tome that I do seek will most likely lie in the hands of one of Innoruuk's own priests, and they seldom seem to leave their studies.", and Maestro isn't a priest).

[EZ_Vanidor Silverbranch]

A poster on the Steelwarrior site for warrior discussions said that he saw the named Warrior Mini in Hate drop a Slowstone and the Dissertion of Dark War though he didn't know what the book was for.

[EZ_Apothes Drudoll]

I know what it is for now and damn I should have kept quiet on drops and let everyone think it dropped only off inny and maestro nopw if only I could have gotten the hybrid one hehe

[EZ_Voronwe Nimbrethil]

how about CHARM slot?

anyways, as a ranger, disappointing to see it as a range slot item. but at least i wont be tempted to do the quest

[EZ_Javan Transient]

Ok, finally finished getting all the text together and whatnot.

mywebpages.comcast.net/ma...erview.htm

Complete site to walkthrough all 4 versions of the quest with mobs to look for, drop names (and most images) and result names (and 7 of 12 gems with images).

Note: there is a typo in the hybrid text. Quest giver asks for the book and 'gem of courage' for the 3rd reward. Gem of Courage is the 1st reward, I'm assuming he wants 'Gem of Daring' instead.

[EZ_Zoaly]

Very nice walkthru Javan
...well done

[EZ_Ishwar2]

So the melee version give up 75 mana, 5 int and 5 wis over the hybrid, and gain excatly NOTHING?

Im I the only one who is getting sick of current trends in item design. Edited by: Ishwar2 at: 5/28/03 12:43:35 am

[EZ_canvashan]

I completed 1st quest for casters.

I have Etched Sorcerer's Signet and Concordance of Black Magic from Maestro. All I need is a hatebone drake bone and I'm done with entire quest. =D

It seems like hatebone drakes are scattered south of the zone. It'll be a bitch to hunt them down... /sigh

[EZ_Faerwynd Corpserunner]

Post the stats for the second caster one when ya do it please.

[EZ_canvashan]

Duh... It really sucks to hunt down hatebone drakes... My ranger with uber tracking was able to track only eight of them in zone. Yes, they are spread out thin...

Edited by: canvashan at: 5/29/03 12:28:33 pm

[EZ_Apothes Drudoll]

Weird I tried to post and it said I was banned but it will let me now lol. and yeah the hatebone drakes are rare as heck and the bones even rarer all I need are the bones to get one of my pure casters the second part of the quest.

[EZ_Aapox]

So the warlords and assassins drop the melee crest? Ive been killing everything by inny, including those, for 4.5 hours and havent seen one

[EZ_canvashan]

melee crest dropped off assasin two days ago.

[EZ_eezyt]

tactical hatred (a book mentioned by the quest giver but not actually asked for) dropped for us off of Warlord Sumthinsumthin in the far south area of the zone.

Wish I knew what it was for...

[EZ_Javan Transient]

According to the spoiler on alla, if you turn in the 3 "unasked for" books along with your 3rd gem, you get a 4th and final reward:

Marsinger's Glimmering Gem
LORE ITEM MAGIC ITEM NO DROP
AC: +20
Str: +15 Sta: +20 Wis: +20 Int: +20 Cha: +10
MR: +20 FR: +10 CR: +10 PR: +10 DR: +10
HP: +100 Mana: +100

Effect: Aura of Regeneration
Focus Effect: Spell Haste IV


I can not confirm this with any in game task, and considering the last text I get from quest giver is:

Quote:"Find me the [book]; return it to me with your [3rd reward] and your work is finished"

I'm not quite sure whether to believe it or not.

[SincroFashad]

Extremely sorry to bump this one...

Looking at the 4th reward, the stats are awesome, but for melee it appears to have lost the +ATK component of it for a spell focus effect. Does anyone know if there is in fact a second version more designed for melee, perhaps with Aura of Daring/Bravery instead of Aura of Regen and spell focus?

-Sinc

[EZ_Kaesa Rex]

Im already at the third and final step. What i was wondering, is if any of you guys know if for sure some mini bosses or named can drop book needed for 3dr part.Or only inny and Maestro can. From what the npc says there is a possbility for others to drop it but im wondering if any of you guys have looted one from any mini boss. Any information will be good

[Thwick]

Wow, i've got to get myself up to Hate.

[EZ_Pyrah]

I've spent the last few weeks working on this quest and have completed the first two. I can confirm that the books do drop off of other named mobs aside from Innoruk and Maestro. A mob named Arcanist V'Gimis dropped some decent caster gloves and a "Book of the Dead". I cannot confirm other books.

PS <Darkblood>

[mikebridge]

guildee (priest class) got 4th reward yesterday and added it to magelo, and from trolling thru item numbers up and down from it, it looks like yes, this is the reward for ALL classes. i'm rather disappointed in it, losing the +15atk for 3regen, and casters losing 3mana for 3regen/spellhaste, overall the stats are better, the effects just suck. also goes back to the planar charm where melees get shafted on the stats for the charms compared to hybrid/priest/casters.
