Quest Overview

The Stone Tool is used to remove Atlan Stones from Atlan Weapons and Shadow Armor.

Walkthrough

Getting to the Artifex Vault

  1. The quest was updated in Heart of Woe when a second portal to the vault appeared at 24.5N 8.0E (see new rumor).
  2. Optional: Purchase the rumor: Duplicated Portals from certain shopkeepers to see the coordinates for the new portal.
  3. To reach the duplicate portal take the Dovetail Valley Villas portal from Samsur at 0.8S, 18.9E.

Inside the Vault

  1. From the drop, run down to the bottom of the slope where you will be met by four Tumerok Officers and two ramps.
  2. Take either of the ramps down and then take the west corridor.
  3. Follow the corridor around and then take the ramp down. Ignore the lever activated doors to your left instead run west through the hall of crystals.
  4. At the end is a room with another level activated door and a lever which opens the doors doors back to the east.
  5. Pull the level and run back through the hall and pull the lever that is now accessible - run back to the previous doors.
  6. Continue on, ignore the first crossway instead going to the section ahead with the barrels. Notice the lever activated door a little to the west.
  7. From the barrels take a right going east.
  8. Take the first right into another room with blue crystals. Run to the doors at the end of the room and pull the lever.
  9. Optional: Alternatively, if you have the lockpick skill, go east at the first crossway and unlock the door (resistance: 402) to access the next lever.
  10. Now run back to where the barrels are and go through the now open doors into another room of crystals.
  11. Run to end and jump down into the pit. Follow the corridor along to an large open chamber with huge barrel like platforms.
  12. Jump across the barrels to the east, taking extra care on the last platform (If you fall into the pit below a surface portal is the only exit).
  13. Go east and you will come to a long mist filled pit with platforms on all sides. If you don't have the health or skill for the fall, carefully jump to each platform until you reach the bottom.
  14. At the bottom use the button on the west wall to open the metal doors to the final hallway.
  15. This next section has many side rooms each filled with blue crystals and Tumerok Gladiators. Run to the end ignoring the side rooms.
  16. At the end of the hallway go south through two sets of metal doors until you come to a lever room filled with more Gladiators. The pressure points on the floor here open doors releasing more Gladiators from above.
  17. Pull the lever in the northeast corner and run back to the hallway taking the middle south corridor - pull the final lever.
  18. Run back to the Gladiator room and through the doors with the portal. Just infront of the portal lies the Stone Tool and textbooks.
