== Overview ==
Quest to kill the Harbinger after it has been weakened by destroying all four [[Essences of Magic]].

* The Weakened, Essenceless and Empowered Harbinger quests all '''share timers''' for the free skill point and the [[Harbinger Arm Token]].

=== Prerequisites ===
* You will need one quest item to give to [[Issk]] or [[Vincadi]] to enter the [[Tunnels to the Harbinger]]. The items are all dropped randomly by certain creatures. Each item is also tied with a skill and on completion of the quest you will get one free point into that skill (see also quest XP reward).

== Walkthrough & Notes ==
# Give the  [[Harbinger Quest#Harbinger Item|Harbinger Item]] to [[Issk]] or [[Vincadi]].
#* 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.
# 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 (Issk)|Tunnels to the Harbinger]] portal to begin.
# 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).
# Take the [[Essence Chamber]] Portal
# Kill each of the 4 Essences, the [[Essence of Strife]], [[Essence of Enchantment]], [[Essence of Artifice]] and the [[Essence of Verdancy]]
# Each will drop multiple crystallized essences used in the [[Essence Recovery]] quest.
# After all 4 are killed, a portal will spawn to the [[Harbinger]].
# Kill the [[Harbinger]], loot a {{Itemlink|Harbinger Arm Token}}, and take portal which spawns after he dies.

;Handing in Harbinger Arm Token
|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. You can tell by the lack of thaumic glow I've seen on the Essence bolstered Harbinger limbs. I can't wait to begin testing this! Here take this as a reward for helping to keep the Harbinger in check. Return it to me if you would prefer a less tangible reward."
