Necromancer 8th Rank  

Most quests seem to be about 2 hard items and 2 easier ones. Maybe the whip, the bookmark are the two hard parts and the other two are easier. Flax is a fiber of some plant of some sort? To be flaxen is made of that and yellowish according to a dictionary... so maybe next it is time to start foraging in plantish areas like trak or ej. Perhaps something flaxish will be foraged.

I solved a quest in Kaesora a few weeks ago that might be a subquest of this quest. It's about the right level (35th so just a bit past the 7th skullcap) to be part of it. And the result identifies as flaxen like the hilt and the 'a yellow whip' from the dreadlands.

However the hilt has 4 spots in it, the bookmark and the whip would only take up 2.

It's under the Tortured Librarian in Kaesora: https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=2168

The sapphire and emerald that drop from the first basement in Kurns(fingered skelly I believe) are for the iksar warrior pike quests. It is possible that they could be used in this quest, but unlikely in my opinion. As to what is needed? 7th rank cap is around level 30-35 for a group it seems, so I am guessing that this particular quest(IF it is part of the necro cap questline) is going to invlove toon levels between 40-45 to get at least one of the 4 components needed.

I'm not sure how long ago they changed this but everytime you say I am a great sorcerer your brood of kotiz faction gets better.

I also noticed when i right clicked on him the guild trainer window popped up.

maybe the fingered skeletons 4 fingers go into the hilt? dunno, just a suggestion

Has anyon tried killing the hermit it is possible he may drop a clue to the whole thing.

A very long time ago before the Greenmist quest was finished I played an Iksar Shadowknight. I had the Lord of Pain's Khukri and was waiting for Greenmist to be finished. There was a lot of guessing as to what we would need. Raising Crusader Golin from the dead was one of the things most people were certain we would have to do. Turns out he didn't play a roll in Greenmist at all. A crusader coffin can be bought from the mortician. Golins skull ( iksar skull with a pierced cranium), Upper Torso ( lore bone chips), and Lower Torso ( lore bone chips ), can all be found on the Lumpy Goo's in Dalnir. To raise him from the dead, you are supposed to put the 3 parts into the Crusader Coffin and his weapon. Since Golin was never used to find Greenmist, he remains a mystery. My guess is he may come into play with the final Necro or Warrior quests that lack a "Final" item. I never found Golin's weapon either. I did suspect the Iksar Knight in Warslick to somehow be part of this. If you give him a shovel he runs off and digs something up, then throws a hilt on the ground ( you have to follow him after giving him the shovel). I haven't seen anyone mention this as a possible route for the final Necro quest, so I wanted to mention it. I was 100% sure this was gonna be part of the Greenmist quest and I was wrong. Maybe it'll come into play with the Skullcaps.

to do this quest u must turn in the 7th cap witch is the sorcerors cap and the dagger i think to get the dagger u do the same thing as the visceral quest ( in dalnir quest section) but use the hilt the hermit gives you not the one u find in dalhir then idintify the thing bring it and your 7th rank cap or sorcers cap that you get from the 7th rank quest and give the BOTH to the hermit i know all this is ture exept for the part about geting the dagger dag is the hermit and dag is the one who once tried to make the dagger so it makes perfict sense

i am to weak to do the quest if my idea dose work plz post to tell me

I usually don't scroll down the threads but I just wondered if you tried putting An Eye of Rokgus, A Gem of Yet to Come, A Shinny Emerald (ID's as Heart Of Torsis)and Jewel of Ganak (ID's as The Crown Jewel Of Ganak.

Just to give you all an update. As of 4/30/02, this quest is broken.

Send an email to jaraiza@soe.sony.com or your favorite Verant Exec and ask why they did all the iksar quests except warrior and necromancer. Or why they said it was going to be fixed back in February and it still isnt fixed? Oh wait they didnt tell me what year.

PS Yo is full of crap so ignore him

It would be mighty helpful if you told us what each component was called exactly, and what mob you killed to get them.

There are three gems found in Kurns? This makes me think. There is a vendor somewhere in Cabilis that sells a book that tells the tail of the Visceral Dagger. The Dagger was made by an Iksar named Dag. I'll spare you the story that it tells but what it does say is that the dagger was made in Kurns. The forge of Dalnir was dragged over to Kurns where the dagger was being made. Well something happened and there was nothing left save the Forge which made it's way back to Dalnir. I know it's a crappy way of telling the story but look it up :). Anyway. This Hermit is seemingly an outcast and the story seemed to point to Dag being an outcast. Might have a link there. Also if the Visceral Dagger that is made in Dalnir is IDed using the ID spell is comes up as a Rusty Visceral Dagger. Hmm... That got me to thinking that this dagger was not done. The hilt that this Iksar gives to the quester may need the Dagger and the three stones to be mixed up in the Forge of Dalnir to make it what Dag set out to make? Just a thought :).

Well no go on the gems from Kurns and yellow whip, or the four gems from the previous quest, in the forge of Dalnir.

Keep trying
