Quest Overview

Quest to create a Focusing Stone casting item which is very useful for its ability to buff the user's Focus attribute or a target's Focus attribute. The Focusing Stone is a widely used utility item to assist with buffing and raising Arcane Lore for a short time.

In order to complete this quest the standard way, you must have someone with Lockpick and you must obtain one Skull of High Acolyte from the Skull of High Acolyte Quest.
It's also possible to complete this quest by using the PKL bug to bypass the required 4 locked doors.

PKL Walk Through (One person won't make it though)

  1. Enter the Mines of Despair at 75.4S 57.2E.
    • Route: From Mayoi, take the Xinh Portal in 60.8S 80.4E.
    • Note: The portal is tie-able and can be summoned.
  2. From the drop, head north and PKL the locked door straight ahead.
  3. Head north through the first door, then take a right at the split.
  4. Jump down into the pit, run down the ramp to the north, then hug the wall right until you reach a lever-activated door.
  5. PKL this door and take your first right.
  6. Hug the left wall until you reach another lever-activated door, in a larger room with Undead Miners.
  7. PKL the door and move down the linear dungeon until you reach the Lich Overseer. Kill him and loot an Inactive Focusing Stone from his corpse (drops 3).
  8. [OPTIONAL] While in this room, you can also loot a Empyrean Sun Stone, which is used in Diemos Flagging and in making Crafting Golems.
  9. PKL the door to the west, follow the hall into a larger room, and enter the portal to Beyond the Mines of Despair.

Beyond the Mines of Despair

  1. From the drop, follow the linear dungeon until you reach a suspended bridge.
  2. Move to the center of the bridge and jump off to the west side.
  3. Run around to the northwest, then use the ramp down on the east side.
  4. From here, its linear all the way to the final room, where you'll find a Vortex.
  5. Use the Inactive Focusing Stone on the Vortex to activate your Focusing Stone!

Standard Walk Through

Getting Keys

  1. If you will not be PKLing the locked doors, complete the Skull of High Acolyte Quest to get a Skull of High Acolyte.
  2. Find Le-Ai Rea at 75.9S 57.3E and hand him the Skull of High Acolyte. He will return a Golden Key and Le-Ai Rea's Key.
  3. Enter the Mines of Despair at 75.4S 57.2E.
    • Route: From Mayoi, take the Xinh Portal at 60.8S 80.4E.
    • Note: The portal is tie-able and can be summoned.

Mines of Despair: Part 1

Note: One person with lockpick should do most of this part, while the rest of the party "holds the doors". The walkthrough is split up for these 2 separate roles.

Lockpicker Walkthrough

  1. From the drop, head north and unlock the wooden door with the Golden Key.
    • Tip: If you have a group, have someone hold this door for you, as you'll need to come back through it.
  2. Go left at the split and jump down into the pit.
  3. Hug the left wall until you reach a locked door at the bottom of a wide ramp. Lockpick it.
  4. Take a right at the next split, and then your first left.
  5. At the next split, take a right, and then hug the wall left until you reach an intersection that has a pit to your left and a small square room to your right.
  6. Open the door to the small square room and use the wall lever to open the first lever door.
  7. Back out of the room, jump down into the pit, and hug the wall left until you reach another small square room with a wall lever. Pull this lever to open the second lever door.
  8. Now portal recall to get back to the Mines of Despair drop.
  9. Head north and take a right at the split. Jump down into the pit, run down the ramp and hug the right wall to join your group.
    • Note: If the first key door has closed already, use your Golden Key to open it again.
  10. Jump down into the pit, run down the ramp to the north, then hug the wall right until you reach the first lever-activated door.
  11. The door should be open and held by someone from the rest of the group. Have everyone proceed through the door.
  12. Once through the door, take your first right.
  13. Hug the left wall until you reach another lever-activated door and the rest of the group.
  14. Proceed with everyone together beyond the second lever door.

Rest of Group Walkthrough

Note: While one person is doing the levers (above), the rest of the group should follow this walk through.

  1. Head north through the first door, then take a right at the split.
  2. Jump down into the pit, run down the ramp to the north, then hug the wall right until you reach a lever-activated door.
  3. One the door opens (from the lever runner), one person should hold it while the rest continue.
  4. Once through the door, take your first right.
  5. Hug the left wall until you reach another lever-activated door, in a larger room with Undead Miners.
  6. Again, wait here for the lever to be pulled, and when it opens, hold the door.

Mines of Despair: Part 2

  1. Once your party is all together, move down the linear dungeon until you reach the Lich Overseer. Kill him and loot an Inactive Focusing Stone from his corpse (drops 3).
  2. [OPTIONAL] While in this room, you can also loot a Empyrean Sun Stone, which is used in Diemos Flagging and in making Crafting Golems.
  3. Now, use Le-Ai Rea's Key on the door to the west, follow the hall into a larger room, and enter the portal to Beyond the Mines of Despair.

Beyond the Mines of Despair

  1. From the drop, follow the linear dungeon until you reach a suspended bridge.
  2. Move to the center of the bridge and jump off to the West side.
  3. Run around to the North West, then use the ramp down on the East side.
  4. From here, its linear all the way to the final room, where you'll find a Vortex.
  5. Use the Inactive Focusing Stone on the Vortex to activate your Focusing Stone!
