| == Quest Overview ==
| |
| This quest is for the Prismatic updrade only. You must have already completed the [[Shadow Armor (Quest)|Shadow Armor]] quest beforehand.
| |
| The first part of this quest is essentially medium [[Harbinger Quest#Medium Version|Harbinger]] where you first kill the Essences to weaken him, killing the Harbinger for this quest, however, is not necessary.<br>
| |
| | |
| == Walk Through ==
| |
| | |
| === Step 1: Arcanum Research Facility ===
| |
| <font color=green>'''Optional'''</font> Speak to [[Ciandra, Arcanum Alchemist]] in [[Xarabydun]] (41.8S, 15.8E).
| |
| # Head to [[Al-Jalima]] (portal in Arwic) and run to the [[Arcanum Research Facility]] at 5.9N 6.3E.
| |
| # From the drop head through the north east or north west doors to reach the rooms with the Decanters. Each person needs 4 [[Enchanted Decanter]].
| |
| # Now you have the Decanters you must make your way to the Tunnels to the Harbinger in [[Yanshi]].
| |
| | |
| === Step 2: The Tunnels to the Chamber of Essences ===
| |
| * Make sure everyone from your fellow has a [[Harbinger Quest#Harbinger Item|Harbinger Item]] (see below) before starting.
| |
| | |
| # From [[Yanshi]], run to either [[Issk]] @ 12.9S, 46.5E or [[Vincadi]] @ 12.6S 46.7E.
| |
| #* '''Note:''' Each NPC offers the same quest, however the lore is different for each. Flagging with one will prevent you from accessing the other, so be sure your whole group flags with the same NPC. | |
| #* '''Tip:''' Soft tie to the surface portal @ 13.0S, 47.3E for convenience. If you die, you'll want an easy way to get back quickly.
| |
| # When your group is ready, everyone should hand their [[Harbinger Item]] to the NPC (either [[Issk]] or [[Vincadi]]) and then use the nearby [[Tunnels to the Harbinger (Issk)|Tunnels to the Harbinger]] portal to begin.
| |
| # Once inside, the dungeon is linear to the bottom (keep heading down). The only obstacles are a series of 4 jumps that must be made.
| |
| #* '''Jump 1: Acid Pit''' - Full jump ahead (land on invisible platform)
| |
| #* '''Jump 2: Lava Pit''' - Jump into the pit and take the hallway to the North
| |
| #* '''Jump 3: Ice Shelf ''' - Shift-jump down onto the platform above the ice shelf, clear the spawn, and wait for your group.
| |
| #* '''Jump 4: Ice/Acid Pit Combo''' - Dispell, then shift Jump down onto the ice shelf and '''quicky''' run to the edge and full jump across the acid pit (land on invisible platform). The ice ''hurts'', so be quick.
| |
| #* '''Jump 5: Staging Area''' - Shift jump down and quickly move to the south (near the portals).
| |
| # Take the [[Essence Chamber]] Portal on right, NOT the portal on the left unless you're are prepared to fight the Harbinger!
| |
| # Kill each of the 4 Essences, the [[Essence of Strife]], [[Essence of Enchantment]], [[Essence of Artifice]] and the [[Essence of Verdancy]]
| |
| # Each will drop multiple Crystallized Essences.
| |
| # After all 4 are killed, a portal will spawn to the [[Harbinger]] <font color=red>'''Do not take portal unless you intend to complete the [[Harbinger Quest#Medium Version|Medium Harbinger]] quest.'''</font>
| |
| # Combine the Crystallized Essences with 4 [[Enchanted Decanter]].
| |
| # Hand the 4 Decanter of Essence of Artifice, Strife, Verdancy and Enchantment to [[Ciandra]] to receive [[Prismatic Oil]].
| |
| # Now you can either apply the Oil to a [[Diamond Shield]], a [[Helm of the Elements]], or use it yo upgrade [[Greater Shadow Amuli Leggings]] or [[Greater Shadow Amuli Coat|Coat]] to Prismatic Shadow Amuli. Or you can complete the next stage to upgrade Greater Shadow Alduressa, Celdon and Koujia suits.
| |
| | |
| === Step 3: Ancient Masonry ===
| |
| '''This stage is to gain the [[Glyph of Alteration|Glyph]] for upgrading shadow suits other than Amuli'''
| |
| # Head to Aerlinthe by either using the [[Aerlinthe Recall|recall spell]] or by using the methods outlined [[Aerlinthe|here]].
| |
| # From the drop head north and around the shoreline to the [[Ancient Masonry]] portal at 88.1N, 47.6E.
| |
| # Progressing through the dungeon is done via levers. First head around to the north to a single door. The rest of the group can stay here whilst a single person uses the levers.
| |
| ==== Room 1 ====
| |
| # Go to the south lever opposite the portal drop. Use it and then pull the lever in the now accessible room, run to the east center room and pull the lever on the floor. Now run to the west center room and pull that floor lever which will open the door to the north.
| |
| ==== Room 2 ====
| |
| # Head north and then have everyone wait at the single door the east.
| |
| # Go to the south lever in this room like before. Use it and then pull the lever in the now open room, run to the west center room and pull the lever on the floor. Now run to the north center room and pull that floor lever which will open the door to the east.
| |
| ==== Room 3 ====
| |
| # Head east and then have everyone wait at the single door the south.
| |
| # Go to the west middle lever in this room like before. Use it and then pull the lever inside the room, run to the north center room and pull the lever on the floor. Now run to the east center room and pull that floor lever which will open the door to the south.
| |
| ==== Room 4 ====
| |
| # Head south and then have everyone wait at the single door the west.
| |
| # Go to the morth middle lever in this room. Use it and then pull the next lever inside the room, run to the east center room and pull the lever on the floor. Now run to the south center room and pull that floor lever which will open the door to the west.
| |
| ==== Glyph of Alteration ====
| |
| # The final west section has a locked door to the south (Dif. 500) and an unlocked door to the north, if someone has high enough lockpick you can skip the final part otherwise head north.
| |
| # <font color=red>'''Ignore the two portals in the next section'''</font> use the levers in the west and east rooms to open the double doors to the north. Inside is the [[Ancient Steward]], defeat it and loot the [[Steward's Key]].
| |
| # Head back to the locked door to the south, inside are [[Glyph of Alteration|Glyphs of Alteration]] on the floor.Make sure everyone loots one.
| |
| | |
| === Upgrading to Prismatic Armor ===
| |
| # To activate the Glyph you now need a [[Pyreal Mote]], if you don't have one simple head to the [[Mysterious Cave]] or a [[Hall of Metos]] and kill the Golems there until one drops.
| |
| # Once you have a Mote, use the [[Glyph of Alteration]] on it to make a [[Pyreal Glyph]]. Use the [[Prismatic Oil]] upon the Pyreal Glyph to make a [[Prismatic Glyph]].
| |
| # Use the Prismatic Glyph on non-Amuli pieces of Greater Shadow armor to make a piece of Prismatic armor.
| |
| # The [[Prismatic Oil]] can also be given to [[Ciandra, Arcanum Alchemist]] for a small experience reward.

| == Notes ==
| |
| * Introduced in [[A Change in Tactics]], the Essences were outdoor creature spawns, located near the Essences which were used to obtain level 7 Spells.
| |
| * The Essences were moved into a separate dungeon, the [[Essence Chamber]], during the [[Price of Loyalty]] event.
