== Quest Overview ==
== Overview ==
Uncover and destroy the [[Curator of Torment]]'s experiments to enhance [[Olthoi]] on [[Marae Lassel]].
Investigating the disturbance on Marae Lassel.


This quest is a parallel to the original [[Olthoi Queen Quest]] with a more current difficulty level.  Players must again destroy the 5 Menhir Rings, and be "sprayed" by killing specific Olthoi to gain access to the queens lair. Players will be facing Olthoi that breath lightning instead of acid, and high level Virindi, as well as void-casting Olthoi grubs.
* This quest is a parallel to the original olthoi queen but with touger Olthoi that spray lightning instead of acid, high level virindi, as well as void-casting olthoi grubs.


'''This quest is limited to a single fellowship of 9 players. There are only 9 carapaces on the [[Olthoi Hive Queen]].'''
;Prerequisites
 
* One person with [[Lockpick]] is required to complete part 1 of the quest.
== Walk Through ==
<font color="green">[Optional] </font>Begin this quest by speaking to the [[Virindi Delegate]] at 43.3N, 66.7W in [[Greenspire]].


== Walkthrough & Notes ==
=== Part 1: Crafting the Tuning Forks ===
=== Part 1: Crafting the Tuning Forks ===
'''Note:''' One person with [[Lockpick]] is required to complete this part of the quest. You will also need to bring one or two [[Astyrrian's Jewel]]s to protect yourself from the [[Galvanic Chest]], which casts a devastating [[Galvanic Bomb]] when opened.
# Speak to the [[Virindi Delegate]] in [[Greenspire]] at 43.3N, 66.7W.
 
# Head to the [[Chiming Portal]] at 45.0N, 73.5W
# Head to the [[Chiming Portal]] at 45.0N, 73.5W, located on [[Marae Lassel]].
#* Route: [[Town Network]] south to [[Timaru]]
# Inside the dungeon you will need to collect the parts to assemble 5 [[Tuning Fork]]s. The dungeon is full of [[Virindi Clandestine]], [[Olthoi Hive Noble]], [[Olthoi Hive Soldier]], and [[Olthoi Hive Piercer]] that use lightning damage.
# Inside the dungeon you will need to collect the parts to assemble 5 [[Tuning Fork]]s. The dungeon is full of level 240 virindi, and olthoi that use lightning rather than acid.
# The dungeon is a giant circle with an inner and outer circle. The outer circle has two [[Galvanic Chest]]s to the east and west. Keep hugging the left wall until you reach each particular [[Galvanic Chest]].
# The dungeon is a giant loop with an inner and outer loop. On the outer loop there are 2 rooms, one on the East side of the dungeon, and the other on the West side. These 2 rooms contain the 2 parts needed to make the forks,
#* '''<font color="red">WARNING:</font>''' When these chests open, they cast [[Galvanic Bomb]]; a ring spell that does 200-1000 points of electric damage. A lightning protection rare is highly recommended.
#* Note: Individual parts are attuned and bonded, so 1 person needs to gather both. Completed keys can be given though.
# You must loot 5 [[Bar of Curved Metal|Bars of Curved Metal]] from the [[Galvanic Chest]] in the west room. And 5 [[Metal Pipe]]s from the [[Galvanic Chest]] in the east room.  
# In each of the 2 rooms is a [[Galvanic Chest]]. These chests are 500 lockpick to open, and can be weakened. In the west chest you will find a [[Bar of Curved Metal]] and in the east chest you will find the [[Metal Pipe]]. Gather 5 of each (simply loot the chest multiple times) and combine them to make the {{Itemlink|Tuning Fork}}s. The chests refill every 30 seconds.
#* Note: It is suggested you run back-and-forth to each room instead of waiting for the item to respawn in the chest.
#* {{Warning}} When these chests are opened they do MASSIVE lightning bomb damage (1 shot KOs are very likely). A [[Astyrrian's Jewel]] (Lightning Protection) rare will however negate all damage.
# Once you have five of each item, combine each one to create 5 [[Tuning Fork]]s.
#* {{Icon|Metal Pipe}} + {{Icon|Bar of Curved Metal}} = {{Icon|Tuning Fork}}
#:<font color=green>The metal pipe attaches easily to the bar of curved metal...almost too easily.</font>
# If desired, you can collect more items from each chest to use for future quest runs.


=== Part 2: Breaking the Rings ===
=== Part 2: Breaking the Rings ===
'''Note:''' These are the same 5 rings that are used with the [[Pyreal Bell]]s for the original [[Olthoi Queen]].
# 5 people must each have 1 [[Tuning Fork]], and wait at their assigned [[Menhir Ring]].  
# Give 5 differnt people 1 of the [[Tuning Fork]]s, and assign them a [[Menhir Ring]] (listed below).  
# Hand forks to drummers in the following order to break the Menhir rings:
# Hand a [[Tuning Fork]] to the Aun Drummer to break the [[Menhir Ring]]s.
## 53.0N, 73.3W - [[Aun Kahmaula]]
# Each ring must be broken in order as follows:
## 49.2N, 74.6W - [[Aun Gehaua]]
#* '''Ring #1''' - 53.0N, 73.3W - [[Aun Kahmaula]]
## 46.5N, 75.8W - [[Aun Tanaua]]
#* '''Ring #2''' - 49.2N, 74.6W - [[Aun Gehaua]]
## 44.7N, 80.9W - ??
#* '''Ring #3''' - 46.5N, 75.8W - [[Aun Tanaua]]
## 50.1N, 80.4W - ??
#* '''Ring #4''' - 44.7N, 80.9W - [[Aun Laiaua]]
# It will take a few minutes after dropping using a Fork before the next drummer spawns
#* '''Ring #5''' - 50.1N, 80.4W - [[Aun Aanaua]]
#* Note: It is not known if there is a timer on handing in forks, of if they prevent players from entering Timaru as was the case with the Bells for the original queen.
# It will take five minutes after dropping a fork before the next drummer spawns.
#* Similar to the old quest, if one player attempts to drop more than one fork, they will obtain a special title ("Out of Tune"). In addition, any character that drops a bell will not have access to [[Timaru]] for 20 hours(?).
# '''Important Note: '''The original [[Olthoi Queen Quest]] and this quest '''cannot''' be run simultaneously.  If one quest has been started by the dropping of the first item (either bell or fork), then that quest must be fully completed before the Menhir Rings will reset again.  The quest will also be reset on each patch day automatically.


=== Part 3: West Fork Dam Hive (Getting Sprayed) ===
=== Part 3: West Fork Dam Hive (Getting Sprayed) ===
# While others are dropping the forks, have the rest of your group head to the [[West Fork Dam Hive]] at 49.1N, 80.0W.
# Head to the [[West Fork Dam Hive]] at 49.1N, 80.0W.
#* Note: From here onward, the Olthoi have [[Recklessness]] and [[Sneak Attack]]. Watch your back!
#* Note: The olthoi in here have recklessness and sneak attack. Watch your back.
# Once everyone is inside the dungeon, work your way down until you find the [[Western Royal Hive]] portal.  There are multiple routes to the bottom where the portal is.
# Inside the dungeon, work your way down (follow left wall) until you find the [[Western Royal Hive]] Portal.
# Clear out the room until everyone has received a message about the Olthoi exploding and being covered in goo. Once you have gotten this message, you are flagged to enter the [[Western Royal Hive]].
# Clear out the room until everyone has received the message about the olthoi exploding, and you being covered in goo. Once you have gotten this message, you are flagged to enter the [[Western Royal Hive]].
#:<font color=green>You run Olthoi Hive Eviscerator through!</font><br>
#:<font color=green>The Hive Eviscerator explodes in a geyser of acid, spraying you from head to toe! You currently reek of Olthoi secretions. Fortunately, this will fade away in about two hours.</font>
# Those who have been flagged should stop fighting and heal others while they fight and get flagged.  This will speed the process of flagging.  You may need to wait for a respawn to get everyone flagged.  Not all of the Olthoi flag you when they die.
# The flagging lasts for 2 hours.  You have this much time to kill the Queen.  Typically it is more than enough time.


=== Part 4: Western Royal Hive ===
=== Part 4: Western Royal Hive ===
: This dungeon contains 3 tests. These tests are optional, but completing them means less creatures spawn with the Olthoi Hive Queen during the boss fight. The tests can be completely in any order or at the same time, if desired. If you wish to skip the tests, advance to the '''Queen's Quarters''' section.
# Complete the 3 tests to access the [[Queen's Quarters]]. The tests do not have to completed per player.
: Note: Should anyone die in this dungeon, they can portal recall and run back to the [[West Fork Dam Hive]]. They will need to make their way back down to the bottom and  use the [[Western Royal Hive]] portal.  This can be difficult alone.  A good strategy can be to complete all 3 tests first, then have the entire group portal recall and bring back with anyone that died, if necessary.
 
# A common strategy for this portion of the quest is to use a melee wall.  At the end of each passage is a short hallway.  Have one player run ahead of the group and distract the mobs while the others move into the hallway.  Set up 2 players to be the "wall" and have all the others attack behind them for protection.  This can be done for each of the 4 passages in this dungeon.
==== Origins Test ====
# '''Origins Test:''' Head east and then north until you come to a larger room with 2 Hive Guardians (one is Virindi, the other is an [[Olthoi Hive Guardian]]). Kill the [[Olthoi Hive Guardian]] and loot the [[Guardian Warrior's Key]]. Use it to open the door and jump across to the [[Origins Portal]].
# Head East and then NORTH until you come to a larger room with 2 Hive Guardians (one is a virindi, the other is an [[Olthoi Hive Guardian]]). Kill the [[Olthoi Hive Guardian]]s and loot the {{Itemlink|Guardian Warrior's Key}}. Use it to open the door and jump across to the [[Origins Portal]].
#* Inside the [[Origins Portal]] you will find a [[Hive Olthoi Egg ]] and some [[Olthoi Hive Crawler]]s.  Kill the [[Hive Olthoi Egg]] and you will receive a message about the queen screaming in anger. Take the exit portal and it will return you to the drop of the [[Western Royal Hive]].
# Destroy the [[Hive Olthoi Egg]] and you will receive green text about the queen screaming in anger. Take the exit portal and it will return you to the initial drop point for the [[Western Royal Hive]].
#'''Grub Test:''' Head west until you come to another large room with a Virindi and an [[Olthoi Hive Guardian]]. Again, kill the [[Olthoi Hive Guardian]] and loot the [[Guardian Soldier's Key]]. Open the door and jump across to the [[Grubs Portal]].
#* The grubs test puts you in a room with a multitude of high level void-casting [[Olthoi Hive Crawler]]s.  It can be safer to stay in the initial room and have the missile, mage, and summoner players attack from a distance.  Simply kill the [[Olthoi Hive Crawler]]s until a [[Hive Maggot Giant]] spawns.  Then kill the [[Hive Maggot Giant]] and you will get a message about them exploding in a burst of acid and guts. Take the exit portal to return to the [[Western Royal Hive]] drop point.
#'''Virindi Test''': Head west again, but instead of going all the way west, head north when possible until you come to another large room. Again kill the [[Olthoi Hive Guardian]], and loot the [[Guardian Soldier's Key]]. Open the door, and jump across to the portal.  Wait to enter the portal with your whole group!
#* The Virindi test consists of a large open room filled with [[Virindi Clandestine]]s and a [[Virindi Sentinel]].  It is very easy for the first person who entered to die, due to being targeted by all the Virindi at once.  Try to enter the portal at the same time to prevent this.
# Kill the [[Virindi Sentinel]] to trigger another green message. After the [[Virindi Sentinel]] dies, take the [[Western Royal Hive]] portal back to the initial drop point.
# At this point you should re-group and get everyone back to the drop point.  You will not be returning here again.
# '''Queen's Quarters''': Head east again, but this time turn south, until you come to another room with 2 [[Olthoi Hive Guardian]].  Kill the Olthoi one and loot the [[Guardian Soldier's Key]].  Then jump across to the portal.


=== Part 5: Queen's Quarters ===
==== Grub Test ====
# The Queen's Quarters is a series of T intersections, some of which lead further into the dungeon, but the majority of which lead simply to dead end rooms. Make your way forward, going down whenever possible.  
# Head west until you come to another large room with a virindi and [[Olthoi Hive Guardian]].
#* Route to [[Portal (Olthoi Hive Queen)‎|Portal]]: West > North > West > West > North and down the ramp > East > South to the end of the hall > West and down ramp > North > East > North then take the 1st right (East) down the ramp > The gates will be ahead.
# Kill the [[Olthoi Hive Guardian]] and loot the {{Itemlink|Guardian Soldier's Key}}. Open the door and jump across to the [[Grubs Portal]]
# Beyond these gates is a room with a [[Portal (Olthoi Hive Queen)‎|portal]] to the room with the queen. This is the last safe spot to buff.  The portal is fairly non-descript.  Do not accidentally run into it!
# The grubs test finds you in a room with a multitude of high level void-casting [[Olthoi Hive Crawler]]s. Kill the [[Olthoi Hive Crawler]]s, and then kill the [[Hive Maggot Giant]] that spawns and you will get a green message about them exploding in a burst of acid and guts. Take the exit portal to return to the [[Western Royal Hive]] drop point.
#* Note: The drop is hot. Once you go in, there is no easy way to get back.


=== Part 6: Olthoi Hive Queen ===
==== Virindi Test ====
# Upon entering you will be swarmed by [[Olthoi Hive Warrior]], [[Olthoi Hive Piercer]], [[Olthoi Hive Soldier]], and [[Olthoi Hive Eviscerator]]. Kill them all at the drop.
# Head west again, but instead of going all the way west, head north when possible until you come to another large room. Again kill the 2 [[Olthoi Hive Guardian]]s, and loot the [[Guardian Soldier's Key]]. Open the door, and jump across to the portal.
# In the middle of the room is a fake queen, similar to the old Olthoi Queen quest.  She is stuck in place and cannot attack you.  Before killing her, determined your battle strategy for the real queen.  If you are using a melee wall, get everyone in place now.
#* The Virindi test consists of a large open room filled with [[Virindi Clandestine]] and a [[Virindi Sentinel]]. Kill the Sentinel to trigger another green text message. Take the [[Western Royal Hive]] portal back to the initial drop point.
# When the fake queen, a green message will appear, and the real [[Olthoi Hive Queen]] will spawn.
# When all 3 trials have been completed, you may now enter the [[Queen's Quarters]]. Head east again, but this time turn SOUTH, until you come to the 4th and final room, again with 2 [[Olthoi Hive Guardian]]s. Kill them, loot the [[Guardian Soldier's Key]], and jump across to the portal.
# Kill the queen and use [[Olthoi Hive Queen's Remains]] to receive the [[Olthoi Hive Queen Carapace]].
#:<font color=green>Deep within the winding tunnels of the Marescent Plateau, the party of the brave <Player Name> has slaughtered the Olthoi Hive Queen. As one, the Olthoi Hive swarms recoil from her final burst of terror, and slowly begin to withdraw back into their hives.</font>
#* Note: The mechanics for getting a carapace are different than normal looting.  Using the queen's remains automatically places the carapace in your pack.
#* Title Note: There is no head to be looted!  If you did the most damage to the queen, you will be given the title of "Hive Queenslayer" when getting the carapace.  There is no message or notification for this.
# When everyone has a carapace, take the [[Queen's Treasury]] portal and give the item to the [[Virindi Delegate]] for experience, luminance, MMDs, and a 5 use [[Legendary Key]].  Use the key on the [[Legendary Chest]]s nearby.


== Experience Rewards ==
=== Part 5: The Queen's Quarters ===
{{Quest Experience Table
* {{Warning}} There is no quick way back should you die! You have a 2 hour flagging to enter the Western Royal Hive once you have been "sprayed" but you will still need to kill the guardian in the South East again to gain access to the [[Queen's Quarters]] portal.
| Repeat Differs = False
# The queens lair is a series of T intersections, some of which lead further into the dungeon, but the majority of which lead simply to dead end rooms.

}}
#* {{Warning}} The head/carapace will appear in your pack directly so make sure you have a free space! The head is no give, so if you want it, you MUST be the one to kill her!
#* Note: There is no confirmation as of yet to the number of {{Itemlink|Olthoi Hive Queen Carapace}} given out via the new reward mechanic.
# When everyone has either the head or carapace, take the portal and give the item to the [[Virindi Delegate]] to receive your rewards.

|Virindi Delegate tells you, "Greetings. The Reaver of Dreams has sent me here to request the assistance of your kind. There has been a great rift in the portal energies flowing through the lands of Marae Lassel."
|Virindi Delegate tells you, "The Tumeroks, who have long battled their "Wharu", are far too simple a creature to sense these rifts. Only one with great consciousness could be responsible for such violent modifications in this long-standing balance."
|Virindi Delegate tells you, "We must determine the cause before it is too late."
|Virindi Delegate tells you, "Gather a party of the mightiest warriors and find what has evoked such drastic changes on the Marescent Plateau. Begin your search to the east of the Tumerok capital. A single tone resonates strongly in my thoughts from this region and The Reaver of Dreams believes the source can be found there."

Hive Queen Assault
Level: 180
Type: Fellowship
Starts With: Virindi Delegate
Starts At: Greenspire at 43.3N, 66.7W
Repeat: 20 Hours
Contracts: Contract for Olthoi Hive Queen

Overview

Investigating the disturbance on Marae Lassel.

  • This quest is a parallel to the original olthoi queen but with touger Olthoi that spray lightning instead of acid, high level virindi, as well as void-casting olthoi grubs.
Prerequisites
  • One person with Lockpick is required to complete part 1 of the quest.

Walkthrough & Notes

Part 1: Crafting the Tuning Forks

  1. Speak to the Virindi Delegate in Greenspire at 43.3N, 66.7W.
  2. Head to the Chiming Portal at 45.0N, 73.5W
  3. Inside the dungeon you will need to collect the parts to assemble 5 Tuning Forks. The dungeon is full of level 240 virindi, and olthoi that use lightning rather than acid.
  4. The dungeon is a giant loop with an inner and outer loop. On the outer loop there are 2 rooms, one on the East side of the dungeon, and the other on the West side. These 2 rooms contain the 2 parts needed to make the forks,
    • Note: Individual parts are attuned and bonded, so 1 person needs to gather both. Completed keys can be given though.
  5. In each of the 2 rooms is a Galvanic Chest. These chests are 500 lockpick to open, and can be weakened. In the west chest you will find a Bar of Curved Metal and in the east chest you will find the Metal Pipe. Gather 5 of each (simply loot the chest multiple times) and combine them to make the Tuning Forks. The chests refill every 30 seconds.
    • Warning: When these chests are opened they do MASSIVE lightning bomb damage (1 shot KOs are very likely). A Astyrrian's Jewel (Lightning Protection) rare will however negate all damage.

Part 2: Breaking the Rings

  1. 5 people must each have 1 Tuning Fork, and wait at their assigned Menhir Ring.
  2. Hand forks to drummers in the following order to break the Menhir rings:
    1. 53.0N, 73.3W - Aun Kahmaula
    2. 49.2N, 74.6W - Aun Gehaua
    3. 46.5N, 75.8W - Aun Tanaua
    4. 44.7N, 80.9W - ??
    5. 50.1N, 80.4W - ??
  3. It will take a few minutes after dropping using a Fork before the next drummer spawns
    • Note: It is not known if there is a timer on handing in forks, of if they prevent players from entering Timaru as was the case with the Bells for the original queen.

Part 3: West Fork Dam Hive (Getting Sprayed)

  1. Head to the West Fork Dam Hive at 49.1N, 80.0W.
    • Note: The olthoi in here have recklessness and sneak attack. Watch your back.
  2. Inside the dungeon, work your way down (follow left wall) until you find the Western Royal Hive Portal.
  3. Clear out the room until everyone has received the message about the olthoi exploding, and you being covered in goo. Once you have gotten this message, you are flagged to enter the Western Royal Hive.

Part 4: Western Royal Hive

  1. Complete the 3 tests to access the Queen's Quarters. The tests do not have to completed per player.

Origins Test

  1. Head East and then NORTH until you come to a larger room with 2 Hive Guardians (one is a virindi, the other is an Olthoi Hive Guardian). Kill the Olthoi Hive Guardians and loot the Guardian Warrior's Key. Use it to open the door and jump across to the Origins Portal.
  2. Destroy the Hive Olthoi Egg and you will receive green text about the queen screaming in anger. Take the exit portal and it will return you to the initial drop point for the Western Royal Hive.

Grub Test

  1. Head west until you come to another large room with a virindi and Olthoi Hive Guardian.
  2. Kill the Olthoi Hive Guardian and loot the Guardian Soldier's Key. Open the door and jump across to the Grubs Portal
  3. The grubs test finds you in a room with a multitude of high level void-casting Olthoi Hive Crawlers. Kill the Olthoi Hive Crawlers, and then kill the Hive Maggot Giant that spawns and you will get a green message about them exploding in a burst of acid and guts. Take the exit portal to return to the Western Royal Hive drop point.

Virindi Test

  1. Head west again, but instead of going all the way west, head north when possible until you come to another large room. Again kill the 2 Olthoi Hive Guardians, and loot the Guardian Soldier's Key. Open the door, and jump across to the portal.
  2. When all 3 trials have been completed, you may now enter the Queen's Quarters. Head east again, but this time turn SOUTH, until you come to the 4th and final room, again with 2 Olthoi Hive Guardians. Kill them, loot the Guardian Soldier's Key, and jump across to the portal.

Part 5: The Queen's Quarters

  • Warning: There is no quick way back should you die! You have a 2 hour flagging to enter the Western Royal Hive once you have been "sprayed" but you will still need to kill the guardian in the South East again to gain access to the Queen's Quarters portal.
  1. The queens lair is a series of T intersections, some of which lead further into the dungeon, but the majority of which lead simply to dead end rooms. These rooms are host to more virindi and olthoi. Make your way going down whenever possible. You will know you are close when you find a hallway closed by metal gates (they open as easy as any other door. No levers or lockpick required).
    • Route to the gates: West > North > West > West > North and down the ramp > East > South to the end of the hall > West and down ramp > North > East > North then take the 1st right (East) down the ramp > The gates will be ahead
  2. Beyond these gates is a room with a portal to the room with the queen. This is the LAST safe spot so any pre-fight prep can be done here
    • Note: The drop is hot. Once you go in, there is no way to get back short of running through the entire dungeon.
  3. Upon entering you will be swarmed by Olthoi Hive Warrior. Kill them at the drop point, then take down the fake queen to the west.
  4. When she dies a green message will appear, and the REAL Olthoi Hive Queen will spawn.
    • The quest has been changed. It will be her with no minions. The void grubs and olthoi she had when the quest was released have been removed
  5. Kill the queen and use her body to recieve a head (if you are the killer) or a carapace if you helped.
    • Warning: The head/carapace will appear in your pack directly so make sure you have a free space! The head is no give, so if you want it, you MUST be the one to kill her!
    • Note: There is no confirmation as of yet to the number of Olthoi Hive Queen Carapace given out via the new reward mechanic.
  6. When everyone has either the head or carapace, take the portal and give the item to the Virindi Delegate to receive your rewards.

Dialog

Opening Dialog

Virindi Delegate tells you, "Greetings. The Reaver of Dreams has sent me here to request the assistance of your kind. There has been a great rift in the portal energies flowing through the lands of Marae Lassel."

Virindi Delegate tells you, "The Tumeroks, who have long battled their "Wharu", are far too simple a creature to sense these rifts. Only one with great consciousness could be responsible for such violent modifications in this long-standing balance."

Virindi Delegate tells you, "We must determine the cause before it is too late."

Virindi Delegate tells you, "Gather a party of the mightiest warriors and find what has evoked such drastic changes on the Marescent Plateau. Begin your search to the east of the Tumerok capital. A single tone resonates strongly in my thoughts from this region and The Reaver of Dreams believes the source can be found there."
