Quest Overview

This quest is for the Prismatic updrade only. You must have already completed the Shadow Armor quest beforehand. The first part of this quest is essentially medium Harbinger where you first kill the Essences to weaken him, killing the Harbinger for this quest, however, is not necessary.

Walk Through

Step 1: Arcanum Research Facility

Optional Speak to Ciandra, Arcanum Alchemist in Xarabydun (41.8S, 15.8E).

  1. Head to Al-Jalima (portal in Arwic) and run to the Arcanum Research Facility at 5.9N 6.3E.
  2. 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.
  3. 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 Item (see below) 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 on right, NOT the portal on the left unless you're are prepared to fight the Harbinger!
  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.
  7. After all 4 are killed, a portal will spawn to the Harbinger Do not take portal unless you intend to complete the Medium Harbinger quest.
  8. Combine the Crystallized Essences with 4 Enchanted Decanter.
  9. Hand the 4 Decanter of Essence of Artifice, Strife, Verdancy and Enchantment to Ciandra to receive Prismatic Oil.
  10. 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 Coat to Prismatic Shadow Amuli. Or you can complete the next stage to upgrade Greater Shadow Alduressa, Celdon and Koujia suits.
