'''This quest requires Lockpicking skill (162+) to complete.'''
* For each person that wants to loot the rewards chest, you will need to obtain a [[Gelidite Standing Stone Translation]]. Note that the translation is givable, so it is possible for the quest leader to acquire multiple copies using multiple characters ahead of time.
* Note 1: (Level 200+ characters) - Step 1 and 2 can be skipped if you're level 200 or greater. A level 200+ portal to the [[Mountain Cavern]] is located near [[Crater Village]] at  64.1N, 13.2E. You will also need a lockpicker to deal with the 999 difficulty chest.
* Note 2: (Level 20+ characters) - Lockpicking skill (162+) is required for a door in part 3.

Overview Edit

  • For each person that wants to loot the rewards chest, you will need to obtain a Gelidite Standing Stone Translation. Note that the translation is givable, so it is possible for the quest leader to acquire multiple copies using multiple characters ahead of time.
  • Note 1: (Level 200+ characters) - Step 1 and 2 can be skipped if you're level 200 or greater. A level 200+ portal to the Mountain Cavern is located near Crater Village at 64.1N, 13.2E. You will also need a lockpicker to deal with the 999 difficulty chest.
  • Note 2: (Level 20+ characters) - Lockpicking skill (162+) is required for a door in part 3.
Prerequisites
  • You will require a Seal from an undead such as Lich Lords and Revenants. You will need one seal for each person going on the quest.

Walkthrough & Notes Edit

Part 1: Rune Transcription Edit

  1. Go to Bandit Castle and head to the nearby Bandit Castle Standing Stone at 66.1N, 51.4E. To reach the stone, you must run to the top of the mountain and down a slope to a ledge only reachable from the top.
  2. Use the Seal to unlock the standing stone and pick up the Bandit Rune Transcription. The nearby Hasty Note (Bandit Castle) will lead you to Neydisa.
  3. Go to Neydisa Castle and head to the nearby Neydisa Castle Standing Stone at 69.2N, 15.3E.
    • Route: A portal to Neydisa can be found in the southern wing of the Town Network.
  4. Open the standing stone and pick up the Neydisa Rune Transcription. The nearby Brief Note will lead you to Stonehold.
  5. Go to Stonehold and head to the nearby Stonehold Standing Stone at 72.0N, 22.0W.
    • Route: A portal to Stonehold can be found in the northern wing of the Town Network.
  6. Open the standing stone and pick up the Stonehold Rune Transcription. The nearby Quick Note will hint at combining the transcriptions.
  7. Use the Bandit Transcription on the Neydisa Rune Transcription to create the Partial Rune Transcription.
  8. Use the Stonehold Transcription on the Partial Rune Transcription to create the Complete Rune Transcription.
  9. Bring the Complete Transcription to Kuyiza bint Zayi the Translator in Zaikhal to obtain the Gelidite Standing Stone Translation. You are now ready to venture in to Frore.
    • Note that the Gelidite Standing Stone Translation is attuned and bonded. So if you are getting multiple for a group, keep the Complete Rune Transcription and give it to each person to turn in. There is a 6 day timer on being able to get the rune transcriptions.

Part 2: Traveling to the Lost City Edit

  1. With Gelidite Standing Stone Translations in hand, go to Plateau Village.
  2. Present your translation to Mairisa bint Fuda at 44.4N 43.4W. She will give you the Gelidite Treasure Key and summon a portal to the top of the peak outside the Mountain Cavern.
    • Warning: Everyone that wants to loot the reward chest must give Mairisa a translation. Do not take the portal if you have not turned yours in yet. Please allow Mairisa enough time to complete her interactions with each player before handing in translations. When everyone has their key, take the summoned portal.

Part 3: The Lost City of Frore Edit

  1. Following the map, proceed to the Lost City of Frore portal. Note that the first area is a repetitive maze and can be easy to get lost in.
  2. Take all lefts from the jump down, and you will be brought directly to the end of the dungeon.
  3. You will need lockpick to advance passed the resistance 162 door after the pressure plates. It is in the same room as the Mnemosyne.
  4. To open the lever doors, one must step on the three pressure plates that are found at the center of the three standing stone rings found in three larger cave chambers, located after the maze and before the city.
    • Warning: If soloing, the magical portals beyond the doors take you to each of the three pressure plates. It is possible to use each portal and run back to the doors before they close. After you pass the first of the three pressure doors, you can close and reopen them using the buttons on the walls to reset the timers and give you some more time. The timers are more generous then they used to be, and as long as you hurry, you should have no problem getting them in one run. Note: When soloing take note: You can double back and reset the timers on the doors by opening all previous doors JUST before running through the next portal. Also, the 3rd portal drops you in a different location than the first two. From the third portal drop, run east first and then down.
  5. When everyone is through, enter the Lost City of Frore.
  6. Open the locked door in the entrance with lockpick. Proceed up, jump down into the pit, and enter the hallway below. You will come to an intersection. If you have high enough jumping skill to jump up one dungeon level, take the left. If you do not, take the right. The right path is slightly longer and requires the use of one lever.
  7. Following the map, proceed to the end. The rewards chest is under a beam of light in the room just prior to the old crystal chamber. Clear the room and loot the chest for the item rewards. If you are with a group make sure to completely empty it.
  8. Return the Glowing Box to Mairisa bint Fuda in Plateau Village for an experience reward.
