# Speak with [[Cara the Apprentice]] in [[Xarabydun]] at 41.7S, 15.8E. She is on the second floor of the building.
* Although this quest is level 50 and above, you must be level 180 and in a society to reach all 20 of the mana fields. A level 50 may reach up to 16 of the 20 fields for a reduced reward.
# She will hand you an [[Enchanted Mana Stone]], which you must use whilst standing at at a menhir mana field to see if the mana fields have changed. Menhir mana fields are typically found at [[Menhir Ring]]s, but not all menhir rings have mana fields, and not all mana fields are found at menhir rings.
 
#* '''NOTE:''' You must be level 50+ to receive a stone from Cara, and 180+ and in a society to reach all of the mana fields. A level 50 may reach up to 16 of the 20 fields for a reduced reward.
== Walkthrough & Notes ==

# [[Cara the Apprentice]] will hand you an {{Icon Link Small|Enchanted Mana Stone}}, which you must use whilst standing at at a menhir mana field to see if the mana fields have changed. Menhir mana fields are typically found at [[Menhir Ring]]s, but not all menhir rings have mana fields, and not all mana fields are found at menhir rings.
# Menhir mana fields are found inside dungeons and on the landscape all over Dereth. See the map for confirmed locations.
# Menhir mana fields are found inside dungeons and on the landscape all over Dereth. See the map for confirmed locations.
#* '''NOTE:'''  The menhir mana fields are numbered, but it does not matter in which order you complete them.
#* '''NOTE:'''  The [[Enchanted Mana Stone]] may be used while running, and using it will not stop you. You must be within the borders of the mana ring to receive credit, however; be as close to the center as possible.
#  You can take the stone back to Cara when you have found 5 or more fields, or you can continue on for up to 20 mana fields.
#  You can take the stone back to Cara when you have found 5 or more fields, or you can continue on for up to 20 mana fields.
#* 5 Mana Fields: Title "Assistant's Assistant", up to 30,000,000xp
# Turning in the stone at any point completes the quest and resets the repeat timer. If you turn in the stone before you have found 20 fields, a pop-up box will ask you if you want to complete the quest now.
#* 10 Mana Fields: Titles "Assistant's Assistant" and "Mana Field Finder", up to 60,000,000xp, one use [[Grand Casino Key]]
#* 15 Mana Fields: Titles "Assistant's Assistant", "Mana Field Finder", and "Arcanum Adventurer"; up to 90,000,000xp; 2 use [[Golden Key (Casino)]]
#* 20 Mana Fields: Titles "Menhir Seeker", "Arcanum Adventurer", "Mana Field Finder" and "Assistant's Assistant", 120,000,000xp, 2 2-use [[Golden Key (Casino)]] (for a total of 4 uses)

#* '''HINT:''' Giving the stone to Cara is a good way to check how many menhir mana fields you've found. Just be sure to click "No" to prevent completing the quest if you wish to continue searching.

== Notes ==
== Dungeons & Maps ==
While originally this quest was an efficient method to obtaining alternate currency between characters, the [[Casino]] changes in the [[Cloak of Darkness]] patch removed the ability to obtain alternate currency from this quest. It is still a decent source of lower-tier loot, XP, and chances at work 10 salvage bags and [[Pristine Mana Shards]].
{{Dungeon Table
 
| Table Rows =  
===Preparation===
{{Dungeon Maps
To run the quest as quickly as possible on multiple characters, you'll want all your characters to:
|        Dungeon = Aerfalle's Sanctum
* Have portal gems for Rithwic, Yaraq, Shoushi, Yanshi, Holtburg, and Xarabydun.
|    Coordinates = 86.4N 45.4E inside [[Aerfalle Keep]]
* Have Teleportation Devices for the [[Facility Hub]].
|   Wiki Map File = B5F0.png
* Have access to a Tursh Totem at mansion.
* Have Aerlinthe Recall, a Portal to Izji Qo at their mansion, or an available summon, recall, or lifestone tie to the Obsidian Rim.
** '''NOTE:''' There's a portal to the [[Obsidian Rim]] at 5.5N, 87.5W, about a 10-click run from Fort Tethana. This might be the best option for "runner" characters who will only be played for this quest.
* An available summon or recall to Tufa.
* An available summon or recall to the Lugian Quarry.
* An available summon or recall to the top of Mt. Alphus, where Zalphoos has his shop.
* A buff-bot may help for surviving the run to the Obsidian Rim Menhir Rings, though it's not essential.
===Steps===
Each character will do the following in order:
# Use a Xarabydun portal gem to get the [[ Enchanted Mana Stone]] from Cara.
# Use a Holtburg gem to get the Holtburg ring and the two menhir rings directly north from Holtburg, as a straight-line run in order, for 3 fields total.
## 41.9N, 33.3E
## New Colier housing portal at 40.2N, 35.1E -> 61.7N, 34.1E
## Mountain Keep Cottages housing portal at 40.2N, 35.1E -> 51.5N, 32.6E
# Summon or recall to the Obsidian Rim. Proceed to the two Obsidian Rim menhir rings, recalling to the drop after each ring, for 5 fields total.
# Use a Shoushi portal gem --> Kara (NE side of Shoushi) --> Lake Thrasyl Cottages Portal (82.9S, 48.0E) --> West Linvak Menhir ring (69.7S, 40.1E), for 6 fields total.
# Reach Al-Jalima via Umbral Halls --> Al-Jalima (east wing) or via Yaraq --> Khayyaban --> Al-Jalima (8.2N, 5.4E), for 7 fields total.
# Use the Tursh totem at your mansion and run to the Tumerok Camp menhir ring (82.7N, 21.0E), for 8 fields total.
# Use a Rithwic gem and run to Rithwic crypt (14.0N, 59.1E), for 9 fields total.
# Use the Facility Hub [[Teleportation Device]] --> Ancient Empyrean Grotto portal (downstairs, west wing) and run to Marae Lassel Menhir Ring (49.2N, 74.6W), for 10 fields total.
# Use a Yanshi gem and run to the [[11.2S, 43.6E - Stone Ring]], for 11 fields total.
# Reach Zaikhal via Yaraq portal gem --> Zaikhal(16.0N, 1.8E), for 12 fields total.
# Reach Tufa (14.0S, 5.3E) via summon or recall or run from Yaraq, for 13 field total.
# Summon or recall or Facility Hub --> Bellig Tower Base then run to the top of Mt. Alphus, for 14 fields total.
# Summon or recall the Lugian Quarry near the East Linvak Menhir ring (65.4S, 52.3E), for 15 fields total.
# Return to Xarabydun and turn in your [[ Enchanted Mana Stone]] with 15 rings lit. You'll be rewarded with XP and a 2-use Golden Key that opens the Golden Chest. You're done!
 
===Alternate method===
If you do not have access to recalls at mansions or other ties in the list above, this 15-ring sequence requires an [[Obsidian Rim]] tie, a [[Town Network]] tie, and a [[Teleportation Device]]. It can be done in 35-40 minutes by a character with a buffed Run skill of 380. The list order goes from most difficult to least difficult, and from longest runs to shortest runs. Level 50-80 characters may have the most difficulty with the first five.
# Recall the Obsidian Rim -> West to 72.7W (entrance to the valley) then north to 46.2S 71.8W (#02)
# Recall the Obsidian Rim -> East then a bit north to 45.3S 61.1W (#01)
# Town Network -> Sho wing -> Kara -> Housing portals at 82.9S 48.0E -> Yukikaze portal -> Northeast to 65.4S 52.3E (#04)
# Town Network -> Sho -> Kara -> Housing portals -> Lake Thrasyl -> Northwest to 69.7S 40.1E (#07)

Menhir Research
Level: 50
Rec. Level: 180 (to research all 20 fields)
Type: Solo
Starts With: Cara the Apprentice
Starts At: Xarabydun at 41.7S, 15.8E
Repeat: 20 Hours
Contracts: Contract for Menhir Research

Overview

Cara needs your help in collecting Menhir Mana Field signatures.

Prerequisites
  • Although this quest is level 50 and above, you must be level 180 and in a society to reach all 20 of the mana fields. A level 50 may reach up to 16 of the 20 fields for a reduced reward.

Walkthrough & Notes

See also: Menhir Research/Menhir by Efficiency for completing the quest on multiple characters.

  1. Cara the Apprentice will hand you an Enchanted Mana Stone, which you must use whilst standing at at a menhir mana field to see if the mana fields have changed. Menhir mana fields are typically found at Menhir Rings, but not all menhir rings have mana fields, and not all mana fields are found at menhir rings.
  2. Menhir mana fields are found inside dungeons and on the landscape all over Dereth. See the map for confirmed locations.
  3. You can take the stone back to Cara when you have found 5 or more fields, or you can continue on for up to 20 mana fields.
  4. Turning in the stone at any point completes the quest and resets the repeat timer. If you turn in the stone before you have found 20 fields, a pop-up box will ask you if you want to complete the quest now.

Notes

  • The menhir mana fields are numbered, but it does not matter in which order you complete them.
  • The Enchanted Mana Stone may be used while running, and using it will not stop you. You must be within the borders of the mana ring to receive credit, however; be as close to the center as possible.
  • Giving the stone to Cara is a good way to check how many menhir mana fields you've found. Just be sure to click "No" to prevent completing the quest if you wish to continue searching.
