Overview

This quest is the original quest at the Lost City of Neftet. It features the prominent temple up on the cliffs for the final dungeon. Due to having to repeat the flagging portion each time, this quest tends to not be very popular.

Walkthrough & Notes

Part 1: Sand Caves Flagging

  1. Speak to Nephthys inside the tent to get the Scrying Rod.
  2. Use the Scrying Rod on top of the cliffs. This will cause a Mu-miyah Device to spawn, and when it does, use the device to flag for the next stage of the quest. You will get a message about it shocking you. The device moves around, and can be found at 1 of 4 locations (See map below). When you use the rod near one of the possible areas, a green message about "wind whipping through the chasms" will appear.
    1. 21.7S 8.0E
    2. 20.0S 7.1E
    3. 21.7S 7.4E
    4. 19.8S 8.0E
    • Note: A common pitfall on this quest is not being able to find the device up on the cliffs. Note that the message about the "wind whipping through the chasms" is given at each of the possible locations where the device can spawn. Many people get the message and believe they are in the correct location when they really are not. A good strategy is to go the exact coordinates shown above and use the Scrying Rod 2-3 times within those coordinates. If the device does not spawn, move on to the next coordinate location.
  3. Return to the tent and talk to Nephthys to receive the first reward.

Part 2: Temple Flagging

  1. Now you need to go into the Sand Caves dungeon. There are multiple portals found on top of the cliffs along the western edge that all drop at the same place (safe drop).
    • There are multiple portals which drop at different locations within the dungeon. This appears somewhat random, but has been stated by the devs that it is not fully random. The exact mechanics of how the portals work is unconfirmed.
  2. Run around the dungeon until you find a room with a Mu-miyah Soothsayer and Mu-miyah Channeller. There are 5 possible rooms where they can spawn and the dungeon is a maze with rocks that randomly spawn to block passages. The dungeon is filled with Mu-miyah, Armoredillos, A'nekshay, and Golems. The dungeon portal is recallable if you die.
  3. Loot Red Destabilizing Crystal and Yellow Destabilizing Crystal off the Soothsayer and Channeller. There are 6 of each crystal per spawn.
  4. Leave the dungeon and find the Mu-miyah Device again using the Scrying Rod. It may or may not be in the same location as previously.
  5. Hand the crystals to the device and it will give you the second reward. Nephthys will spawn next the device, talk to him to flag for the Temple portal.

Part 3: Inside the Temple

  1. Now go to the Temple dungeon portal (Portal is recallable) on top of one of the cliffs.
  2. Kill every creature on the lower levels in order to open the doors to the wings at the top of the stairs above the huge statue. The only creatures in the dungeon are Mu-miyah and A'nekshay.
    • Note: The doors will only stay open for 20 minutes.
  3. Once the creatures in the wings are all dead the doors to the next level will open.
    • Note: It appears that only the Mu-miyah Grand Vizier and Bak'tshay Lady trigger the final set of doors. There is no need to clear the upper wings completely if these creatures can be killed. However, it is very difficult to kill them without killing everything else.
  4. Go back to the top of the main stairway, enter the final set of doors, and kill the Mu-miyah Slave Master. When you attack him a bunch of guards will spawn but focus on the Slave Master because the guards disappear when the Slave Master dies. The doors to the room close when you attack him, but will open again when he dies.
  5. Use the bookcase in the room on the left to spawn the reward NPC in the room on the right. Note that the NPC does not appear on the radar.
  6. Talk to him for the final reward.
  1. Quickly run to the beginning of the dungeon and take the right hallway (from the entrance) on the first floor. You'll find a path that was previously blocked by books. Now that it's cleared, run down the hall to pick up a Large Tome which is part of the Strathelar Royal Cloak Quest.

Dialog

Opening Dialog

Nephthys tells you, "The Sand Kings took control of our temple and began enslaving our people inside. Those of us who have managed to stay out of their grasp have not been able to gain access. Our hopes of freeing them have slowly turned to despair."
Nephthys gives you Scrying Rod.
Nephthys tells you, "My research has led me to believe that the Mumiyah have a hidden device somewhere in these cliffs that is blocking our entry."
Nephthys tells you, "I have been working on a Scrying Rod which may allow us to discover the device in hopes of figuring out a way to disable it. Unfortunately, I have yet to be able to locate their device as I fear they move it regularly."
Nephthys tells you, "Please, take this Scrying Rod and see if you can find that device and hopefully bring us one step closer to our freedom."
