Necro Epic

[Emperson]

Well, i haven't actually done my epic quest yet, but i figured what better topic to go in quest journal than the epic quest?

Im going to break it down like this. First ill say all the items you are going to need to obtain and how to get them to complete the quest and then ill go in more detailed and say what you do with each item.

1. Head of Sir Edwin Motte- This is found off of Sir Edwin Motte a 33 paladin who can be found in East Freeport, Highpass Hold, Qeynos Hills, and Rathe Mountains. (I have killed him in East Freeport so i do have experience with this area of the quest)

2. Flowing Black Robe- This is found on Najena in Najena... In my opinion you're better off buying this thing in the bazaar for 50pp or whatever, heh, but if you wanna camp her shes level 28 and the robe is a common drop on her so it shouldnt be too hard.

3. Slime Blood of Cazic Thule- Drops in Plane of Fear off of Terror, Fright, Dath and Cazic Thule himself. This is also buyable but can be pretty expensive.

blah blah blah dont pay attention to this and just read below...

Thats all the info that I have...good luck to all with this quest.

[Emperson]

THANK YOU... lol i was just waiting for somone to finish my failed attempt to make this guide... i was afraid i would have to finish it lol :lol:

oh yes... swell job, much better than i could have done

[Draz]

Very nice Job....

I have not been to Freeport yet. Is my DE KoS... <_<

[Origomali]

KoS in EFP.....well, my DE wasn't but then again I did the rogue faction quest in the Qeynos Sewers with my DE Necro many moons ago which boosted me to Ally in Highkeep and Highpass and made me amiable (along with killing orcs in Nek and EC) in EFP.

What you need to worry about if you camp the tavern for Motte is the NPC bar patrons who will attack you on sight. One is a Barb and I forget what the other is but they spawn in pairs.

I entered EFP through the tunnels that will lead you directly under the tavern and camped it many nights, seeing which NPCs were KoS to me, running many times to the safety of the tunnel zone while my parked pet attacked them to delay them as I ran.

Once I learned which NPCs would not aggro me, I then waited for Motte to pop, while invis'd, with the right combination of other NPCs in the Tavern.

When the time was right, I left the Tavern, made a pet and re-entered and was aggro'd immediately by Motte. My pet stepped in, I backed up and Dotted and Tapped him with everything I had. I had all offensive spells loaded so I could lay it on heavy.

My skills like channeling, defense and dodge were maxxed for my level and helped me get off some casts even while he was beating on me.

Solo'd at 35 and once he was slowed, I never had a worry.

[Draz]

Thanks....

I have not improved any faction except Coldain and CoV.... :unsure:

And my Dodge is low, so guess I should work on that.... :D

[Reyna Niteraven]

Not a problem, I cant remember where I got the walk through from I just added in the plane of air info as our guild got to the point to be able to raid there.

Ive been working on epic for nearly a year now I have plane of fear drops, hate drop, and plane of air drop to get and then finished.

I was KOS when I entered and killed for the head in freeport. This was scary as heck as it was before the time I got my timed invis spell and so went invis and ran as fast as I could to the tavern.

If you are facing the tavern door off to your left hand side of the tavern there will be a little dead end walk way that goes next to the tavern, there I sat, buffed up and got myself ready for the pull for the head. There I could drop invis and be ok with no attacks.

At first attempt I tried to kill the guard inside the tavern, which didnt work too well with the adds. Second attempt I pulled him to my little side walkway hideaway next to the tavern I got killed but on the third attempt pulling him to same spot I got the kill and with no adds.

That pull for me was just a trial and error type thing and something I had to do to find the right way that would work for me. Plus its allot of timing too.

[Mixylplix]

In EFP the people in the bar change depending upon what time of day. If theya re KOS to you wait till the change cahnges (day to night) and see if the "new crew" is KOS. You OUGHT to be able to go in invis target then back out drop invis and then /con. Was able to pull him out solo and take him down with myself and an SK friend.

So far teh FREAKING herb is the REAL sticker. I mean yeah the Sky Raid is not cheese, but the Chardok Zone is a PAIN.

[Mortreus]

i started the quest a month ago i was able to solo up till the chardok mansi herb.
unless u do something to cange faction a DE necro is not kos in east or west freeport being that the militia is corrupt u are on the other hand kos to the ppl inside the bar which the pally spawns. At lvl 49 when i started quest all mobs wer green so i let pet do all the dirty work lol. If any of these mobs leave the bar they will call for a guard so be carfull.... Now this is wer i got into a bind my guild was to small fo a good raid but last week i had a chardok raid planned none showed up so i left guild that night. (sux to be me) So i was stewing over this in the bazaar talking to an old friend who used to be my old old guild leader when i saw an auction for the eye of inny 6k i was like sweet but i was also broke at that time so my bro loan'd me the plat so now no hate raid. (yea for me) Now is the cazic blood is that the slime blood of cazic thule which is those glove things or is it a vile of blood? if any one knows please let me know...

the slime blood of cazic thule

yes its those gloves things hehe :lol:

[katalynn]

New here* So helloz everyone. :rolleyes:

I have a 54-55 necro, have been working on her epic for the hell of it. *nothing better to do.*

Anyway, I have a question about the hate mobs. Been there a few times and not once has the mobs been at least on track. I know I can buy the eye, but I rather not give the wizzy that has it, the pleasure of taking my $$ for an epic peice. :blink: *me selfish* plus when I'm only doing this for fun, no point in spending a ton of $$$ on the peices anyway. ya know?

Basically what I'm asking is, how can I find out about the mobs? There is little info on alakaz, and most of it is talk about how a wiz got the eye. blah blah. Since the revamp, there hasn't been any say on when/where. Or what it takes to get whatever mob to spawn.

Anything would be appreciated

Kat.

[Emperson]

Hey nice to meet yah... i know what yah mean about not wanting to give those greedy wizzies $$... like they dont already have enough... heh well anywho, ive looked around and havent gotten too much good info on the mobs to help you... however, you said you checked "alakaz" but i wasnt sure if maybe its beastiary site would be more help... you might have already check but heres a link to PoH beastiary...

http://eqbeastiary.allakhazam.com/search.shtml?zone=68

ill look around for more info on it and when i find it ill either edit it into this post and make a new post asap... sorry i couldnt be more help for now and GL...

[sshai hulud]

Step 20 specifics -- for those not familiar with Plane of Sky:

Here's a summary I just wrote for allakhazam, I just got my epic.

here you go, step by step. this assumes you have NO KEYS:

1. zone into sky. you will lose all your buffs on zone in (this is normal.) rebuff.

2. kill faires along the edge of the island. each will drop a rabbit's foot and a miniature sword. everyone in your party needs one of each. alternatively, bring a LOT of pp, and buy both the key of swords and the key of the misplaced from the key master. this will cost a total of about 350pp per person.

3. hand the fairy princess in the middle 10GP. 1PP will work as well. this will ensure that Gkzzallk is up when you want him.

4. if you didn't buy the keys, or didn't bring them, after handing in the cash to the princess, kill her.

5. every person in party give the mini sword and the rabbit's foot to the lunatic that spawns after she dies. do not talk to him. you will get one key for each - key of swords, and key of the misplaced.

6. put key of swords on pointer, and follow map from maps.eq-toolbox.com to the "noble" island.

7. put key of the misplaced on pointer. go over to the next warp point. make sure you are ready. the island you warp to will be all aggro, all assist. 9 mobs are there. warp up. kill them all. pretty magic resistant, but both slowable, tashable and mezzable.

8. kill the guardian of sky, he will pop when the azaraks are dead. alternatively, if you have the shell-shaped key, you could maybe get around hte slaughter and click up to the next (non-aggro) island.

9. all corpes drop a broken mirror piece. all people in your party need one. hand a piece to the lunatic that spawns from the dead guardian to get the shell shaped key. use it to click up to the island with Gkzzallk.

10. if you handed in the 10gp, he will be up, in the corner of the building on the island. everything here is non-aggro. turn in the box, and then jump off the island (nothing aggros pre- or post-turnin.)

that's it! gratz!

Con the guards at the entrance. If you're anything less than "indifferent" just cast ivis and make your way to the bar in east freeport. Once inside you can hide around the corner from your target and call your pet.
