The Darkened Sea Info & Guides: Overview | Progression & Task List | Raiding | Visible Armor About Heroic Adventures: - They use the task system (steps are shown in task window, but steps are only revealed as you get to them). - From the moment that you request the adventure, the countdown to request another adventure is 3 hours. - Scale in difficulty, loot quality, and mob levels (based on your group's highest level player - as low as 85). - Tuned for 2-3 players and their mercenaries. - Nameds can spawn as you progress through the task (you usually have to complete a few steps before this can happen). - Collection items can drop from mobs in the instances, and ground spawns appear midway through tasks. - Expected time of completion will vary by your group's makeup (anywhere from 30-90+ minutes). - There is some variations/randomization in the task steps you'll be assigned as you progress through the task. About Our Documentation of Heroic Adventures - We only display task steps we know about. --- If you encounter a step that isn't documented here, please post the details (or email us) and be sure to indicate which step number it was so that we can display it in its proper place.

TASK IN DETAIL ======================================================================== TRIGGERING THE TASK ======================================================================== You say, 'Hail, Praetoria Okkirus' Praetoria Okkirus looks deeply into your eyes with a sorrowful expression, 'I know not why you have set foot upon this island, but I implore you now adventurer, leave lest you suffer the same [fate] as my crew.' You say, 'What fate?' Praetoria Okkirus says 'These ruins mark the death of our ambition, of our desire to expand the territory and knowledge of our people beyond the small refuge we huddled wearily within. What we encountered beyond the beach of this impregnable island were creatures stronger than anything we were equipped to deal with. I offer you a chance to [see] it for yourself.' You say, 'Let me see it' Praetoria Okkirus says 'When you are [ready], I will show you the land as it once was.' You have been assigned the task 'A Fateful Arrival'. The last Combine crew to sail here was ill equipped to deal with the harsh terrain and fearsome creatures that inhabit the island. Relive the land as it was and do battle with the beasts they encountered. ======================================================================== STEP #1 ======================================================================== Clear the western forest of saurek 0/6 (Thuliasaur Island) Task Window Says: ? If You Get This Step: Kill updates. ===================== Clear the central forest of raptors 0/7 (Thuliasaur Island) Task Window Says: Several of our scouts made their way into the forest in search of food. Days passed before we learned of their fate, bloodied cloaks buried in the nests of the wandering raptors. Avenge the fallen scouts by putting a few of these beasts to rest. If You Get This Step: Kill updates. ===================== Clear the western forest of drogmors 0/6 (Thuliasaur Island) Task Window Says: A small contingent of our bravest warriors set out to recover whatever resources could be scavenged from the western forest. Only one of them returned, but was mocked when he revealed his party fell to a pack of wild drogmors. Prove your strength by putting a few of the beasts down. If You Get This Step: Kill updates. ======================================================================== STEP #2 ======================================================================== Kill a few soulsippers and glistenwings 0/7 (Thuliasaur Island) Task Window Says: Scattered throughout the forest are a number of monstrous flying insects that proved to be deadly encounters for our scouts. Exterminate any colossal butterflies or mosquitoes you come across while exploring the forest. If You Get This Step: Kill updates. ===================== Kill a few ebonwings and ebonwing guardians 0/6 (Thuliasaur Island) Task Window Says: On the eastern edge of the forest is a tribe of Aviaks and south of them is the nest of a colossal raven they appear to live in fear of. A tribe of necromantic bird creatures, not unlike the Aviaks themselves, tends to the great beast's offspring. Our crew sent a small party to the nest to try and win favor with the Aviaks by slaying a few of these necromantic creatures but ultimately proved no match for these birds. Make your way to this nest and succeed where they failed. If You Get This Step: Kill updates. ===================== Put a few wandering shades out of their misery 0/9 (Thuliasaur Island) Task Window Says: The members of our crew that did not fall to the beasts of the forest remained here on the beach, trying to maintain hope while awaiting rescue. As hunger and melancholy began to overtake them they grew evermore bitter and hateful. Their souls now haunt these ruins unable to continue on into an afterlife. Put their souls to rest by dispersing their undead remains. If You Get This Step: Kill updates. ======================================================================== STEP #3 ======================================================================== Take down a few triceratopses 0/5 (Thuliasaur Island) Task Window Says: Every scout that returned to camp after setting out into the forest spoke of only one thing, beasts with the size and fierceness of dragons yet none of the expected cunning. Travel to the northern edge of the central forest and test your strength against these dinosaurs. If You Get This Step: Kill updates. ===================== Take down a few ankylosauruses 0/5 (Thuliasaur Island) Task Window Says: Every scout that returned to camp after setting out into the forest spoke of only one thing, beasts with the size and fierceness of dragons yet none of the expected cunning. Travel to the heart of the central forest and test your strength against these dinosaurs. If You Get This Step: Kill updates. ===================== Take down a few tyrannosauruses 0/5 (Thuliasaur Island) Task Window Says: Every scout that returned to camp after setting out into the forest spoke of only one thing, beasts with the size and fierceness of dragons yet none of the expected cunning. Travel to the edge of the western forest and test your strength against these dinosaurs. If You Get This Step: Kill updates. ======================================================================== STEP #4 ======================================================================== Exact revenge upon the Bloodfeather aviaks 0/20 (Thuliasaur Island) Task Window Says: ? If You Get This Step: Kill updates. ===================== Exact revenge upon the Kromtus giants 0/20 (Thuliasaur Island) Task Window Says: Just east of our outpost is a village of giants. They were the first of the sentient tribes we encountered here and miraculously they purported to be pacifists. We maintained a peaceful relationship with them until a small band of our scouts set out into the giant village during the night in an attempt to steal supplies. They were discovered and the purported pacifists were quite adept at combat. Their guards descended upon our camp and destroyed every one of our shelters short of our observatory. Travel to the Kromtus village and strike a blow to their tribe in our memory. If You Get This Step: Kill updates. ===================== Exact revenge upon the Thaell Ew tribe 0/20 (Thuliasaur Island) Task Window Says: Out of everything our crew encountered on the island, nothing proved as deadly as our first and only encounter with the lizardmen to the north. All of our attempts at diplomacy were met with unmitigated savagery. The decapitated heads of our orators were left impaled on spear as a warning to any human that would step into the northern valley. Go north and respond to these creatures in kind. If You Get This Step: Kill updates. ======================================================================== STEP #5 ======================================================================== Speak to Praetoria Okkirus 0/1 (Thuliasaur Island) Task Window Says: You have proven better suited to deal with the harsh beasts of the island than the ancient Combine crew. Return to Praetoria Okkirus to inform her of your victory. If You Get This Step: Dialogue to complete. TASK REWARDS - Experience - Platinum - 215 - 232 of "Piece of Eight" (currency) | |

The Tiny Parrot's Right Humerus is not unlocked by this mission. It was available to me on the Skeletal Vendor after acquiring every other piece of the aug, without completing this HA. It appears, that said piece is simply unlocked by having everything else

It appears there is something more required to unlock the Tiny Parrot's RIght Humerus, I completed the HA, and see nothing available on the vendor.
