Vex Thal starting point found
I want to confirm that the Vex Thal starting quest mob has been found. I don't want to provide too much specific information at this point for a few reasons that I will explain later. It does seem that the quest is now finished and the zone available. Getting inside the zone is going to be a huge undertaking. It is far more difficult than getting to Lord Seru or Emperor.

However, I do feel in debt to The Safehouse for providing me some basic information that helped me discover where to look.

The starting quest mob is not Vah Kerrath. This is extremely important because he is an intemediatary that will provide information about the Talisman of Akelha Ra.

I can provide something of substance and can confirm that the Glowing Orb of Luclinite is indeed a part of the quest component. Unfortunately, it seems to be an easy component in comparison to another item that is need :(

Here are some partial quotes from the quest mob that will help.

"The Spirit of Akelha`Ra 's hollow eyes look up at you."

"Once it is reassembled you will need to merge a Orb of Luclinite with a source of celestial power"

"Vex Thal is the sacred home of the Akheva. The place where Luclin's power directly touches this world"

I hope those quotes will show that I am willing to provide some information. Unfortunately the reluctance of other guilds to provide information on other quests (such as Seru Bane) has created a situation where it is in my own guilds interest to withhold information until we know future details. Anyone that competes with other guilds on their server understand the dilema.

Yes, I feel guilty about not being able to spill all the details, which is why I am making this post in the first place. I hope within a few days I can provide all the details but at this time I am unable to do so. I hope that I am not flamed for this post but I can understand how some will feel. I really do apologise for being vague.

Oh, and make sure you bring a Magician with you. They are a key element in gain information about Vex Thal.

Re: Vex Thal starting point found
actually the information he gave is helpful. He's letting people know the key is in game and obtainable, that he hasn't completed the quest yet and that people thinking the skele in Umbral is the starting point are off track in a way. He's letting poeple know where not to run off on a wild goose chase

I have talked with Gallux and the information he has is not yet complete. The chat with the spirit of Akelha'Ra leads to a point where you need an easy to acquire item that he simply didnt have on him at the time. Because he was worried that this might lead to a despawning of the quest mob or something else that would result in not gettign the full information if a rival guild did it on his own server he has held off on posting the conversation now.

I have every confidence that the whole conversation with the spirit will be posted within 24 hours. This quest seems to have MASSIVE TIME SINK written all over it from what I have already seen of the quest, so loosing a few hours REALLY wont harm you.

I post this to confirm that this is a legitimate quest and it SEEMS to lead to the Talisman of Akelha'Ra even though the Talisman itself is not specifically mentioned.

Re: Reasons for not posting the complete info to date
Here is the complete spoiler although I had to leave out certain confidential parts....I hope you will understand.

You say, 'Hail XXXXX'
XXXXX says, 'Hello adventurer, do you want to listen to [something I have recently discovered]?.'
You say, 'Yes I wish to listen to something you have recently discovered.'
XXXXX says, 'Awesome. I think I have found the secret to a place where the great god of Luclin is making his residence now. Do you want to know [details]?'
You say, 'Yes, I want to know details'
XXXXX says, 'To enter this secret place go to XXXX and obtain XXXX. Then bring it to XXXXX together with two XXX. He will then provide you with a key. But be careful adventurer, it is a dangerous journey!'

I hope this info will give you a hint, that Vex Thal does indeed exist. I even have more secret info on this place, but at the moment I cannot share it with you unless...you maybe tell us how to defeat the vicious dragon Zlandicar.

Have fun questing!

P.S.: I forgot...bring a necro. Not that necros would be useful for this, but they usually feel alone and deserve a bit of attention.

Heh, at least rename the thread "Vex Thal Starting point Found (But I can't say where)" That way I won't waste my time reading your post.

Actually the really friggin annoying posts are the

'either hold my hand from point a to point z and all points in between or don't bother' variety

He confirmed that something apparently exists that was previously thought not to, god forbid you poke around a bit on your own.

Re: Reasons for not posting the complete info to date
Guildmate brought up some interesting points:

1) "Awesome" is a word I've *never* seen uttered by an NPC in Norrath in almost 3 1/2 years of playing.
2) Luclin is a female. She is the goddess of the Plane of Shadow.
3) I *highly* doubt a quest of this nature would have bracketted keywords.

Makes ya wonder if this is real..

I know I am about to submit this and it will be a very pedantic post.

Gallux I believe. Will be an interesting hunt.

I also think that Shadrax's post was just to poke fun at the earlier posts. You can tell by the use of the word [Awesome], the Zlandicar comment and the poking fun of the Mage comment with the Necro comment.

In other words - don't get worked up over it.

That sounds so fake. The only use I could see of "Awesome" would be something along the liines of "Behind the doors of Vex Thal resides Luclin, a goddess of awesome power."

Re: Reasons for not posting the complete info to date
The post by Shandrax is just a joke. I had a good laugh too :)

I believe Qhue is credible enough to back up what I said. I provided him with the information to try and show that I am making a legitimate post.

Luclin is a demi-goddess, not a goddess ;)

Luclin has her own full-fledged plane (just like E'ci, Tarew Marr, and Prexus have the Plane of Water split between them, and Prexus is a 'full-fledged' god). So, technically she isn't a demi-goddess as far as Deity lore 'should' be concerned, imo. :>

That is the best, and only, thing that makes reading this thread worthwhile right now.

Re: Reasons for not posting the complete info to date
Thank you Gallux. You did well in posting, and I like a challenge with hints, not a full walk through this early in the chase.

You say, 'Hail XXXXX'
XXXXX says, 'Hello adventurer, do you want to listen to [a joke]?.'

Thanks for the laugh :)

Re: Reasons for not posting the complete info to date
The reason I am not posting more details is because of the lack of sharing in the following thread:

pub35.ezboard.com/fthesaf...4648.topic

My guild has worked extremely hard trying to find out Seru bane weapons and due to some luck found the start of the Vex Thal quest. We still don't have Seru bane recipes.

Why should I share what I found with those that don't wish to share? Seru bane recipes not being posted was the main reason I didn't spoil the Vex Thal starting point.

Rather than say nothing except I know the start and you don't, I tried to provide some information, nothing as cryptic as the Seru earring quest, something that was actually a clue.

I provided the name of the mob that gives the quest details. I provided the purpose of the Glowing Orb of Luclinite. I confirmed that the quest is available and live. Lot of good information in my post, but so many concentrate on the negatives.

Im sorry I can't give you the walk through, YET. I'd like to give my guild the opportunity to actually progress a bit in the quest, rather than have to deal with other guilds on my server competing for the same spawns etc.

Can you give us a hint as to where to look for the quest giver?
Obviously in luclin no doubt. In a city, a dungeon, an open zone.. anything as rough as that would even be a help. I do want to figure the key out on my own although i dont know where to start, Havnt seen any of those quotes anywhere in game.

Re: Reasons for not posting the complete info to date
Thanks for the information you have been able to share so far. My gut feeling is that this will be more of a "gather rare and annoying things off of tough MOBs that you otherwise wouldn't feel like killing" than anything but it is nice to see that it seems to at least be implemented now.

cheers,
Celeris
