Quest Overview

Quest to kill the Harbinger after it has been weakened by destroying the Essences of Magic.

Important: The Weakened, Essenceless and Empowered Harbinger quests all share timers for the free skill point and the Harbinger Arm Token.

Walk Through

  • Make sure everyone from your fellow has a Harbinger Item before starting.
  1. 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.
  2. 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 portal to begin.
  3. 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).
  4. Take the Essence Chamber Portal
  5. Kill each of the 4 Essences, the Essence of Strife, Essence of Enchantment, Essence of Artifice and the Essence of Verdancy
  6. Each will drop multiple crystallized essences used in the Essence Recovery quest.
  7. After all 4 are killed, a portal will spawn to the Harbinger.
  8. Kill the Harbinger, loot a Harbinger Arm Token, and take portal which spawns after he dies.

Rewards

  1. Talk to Issk or Vincadi for experience and 1 point into your skill (depends on which Harbinger item you used).
  2. Hand the Harbinger Arm Token to the Emissary of Asheron in old Yanshi for the title "Harbinger's Bane"
  3. Alternatively, you can hand the Harbinger Arm Token to Ciandra for a vial of Shimmering Prismatic Oil used to upgrade a Diamond Shield or a Helm of the Elements. The oil can also be given back to Ciandra for 6,500,000? xp.

You give Ciandra, Arcanum Alchemist Harbinger Arm Token
"Ah, excellent, an arm from the Harbinger! You must have killed the Essences before you fought the Harbinger and retrieved this limb.

Return it to me if you would prefer a less tangible reward."
