EQ2 Quest:List of Acquisitions for the Continuing of Research  

This quest is initiated by examining a "List of Acquisitions for the Continuing of Research" that drops from the corkscrew room ring event, and also from Borxx, the Keeper of Nihility or some other of the higher end named mobs in the zone. It is the access quest for The Vestibule, a zone underneath of the Obelisk of Lost Souls.

The first thing you must do is kill Blikritz Bauble-eye in Runnyeye (+153, -16, -117, near the dining room).

After you kill blikritz bauble-eye, you receive a quest reward from that is a body of a goblin (weight = 100) take this drop to the vestibule entrance at the bottom of the obelisk. The next quest update comes when you click on the vestibule door. Only the person who clicks on the door gets the update if more than one person have the quest. When you enter the zone you have the choice of going left or straight. Go left there are two 44^^ shadows down the stairs, kill them they have been known to add through the walls, so this is just saving you from possible adds later. The door at the end of that passage is locked for now. Go back and take the straight passage, when you come up to the room there will be 2 groups of lvl 50 mobs, either 4 with no arrows or 2 ^. Be carefull they will add from down in the pit. There are also lvl 35-42 solo mobs, 3 of them around the room but they are non-kos. Clear the room. Now this is where it gets boring, as far as we can figure there is no way to spawn the named quick, just keep killing off the PH's till he pops. He is a lvl 50^^ named Medium of Hykor. He has 2 adds, as well. He has a single target nuke, for up to somewhere in the 2k range, it is divine dmg and hits about every 40sec-1min. After you kill the medium, the door at the end of the other passage unlocks. Go in and place your goblin on one of the six tables in the room. You can receive more goblins when you enter the room if you look to your right there is a bag in a slot on the wall you can search. Place a goblin on each of the six tables. When a goblin is on each table a shadowedman will spawn behind the table, non killable. After 2 min the shadowman will die and the goblin will come to life. The goblins are 38-42^^ and have 2 adds not in the same encounter. When you kill that goblin another shadowman will spawn behind another table and the 2min cycle repeats again. When you kill the last of the 6 goblins a lvl 49^^ named heroic named Malisient will spawn with 2 adds, the named has an AE knockback attack.
