[edit] Walkthrough

Each time you enter Magus Stones while this quest is active, the spawning location will be reset to one of the following randomly chosen locations:

  • Northern, middle of zone. Immediately to the west of Rata Sum, in the middle of a small lake
    • This is identifiable by the Divination Bar being 2/3 red when zoning from Rata Sum
  • West of the lake mentioned above is a shrine, the Facet appears to the southwest
  • Middle of zone. Almost due west of the zone gate to Alcazia Tangle, in the middle of the zone. Between the two rock outcroppings that appear below the zone name on the World Map

Divination refers to the bar labeled "Proximity to Target" which fills as you approach the Facet's location. Once you find a location where the proximity bar is filled, wait and look around to see a circle of light, signaling the Facet is coming out of hiding. Defeat the Facet to complete the quest.

[edit] Dialogue

[edit] Initial dialogue

Kerrsh

"We are almost there. The answers we seek are near, yet there is more that must be done.
The Facet of Illusions, a manifestation of your deity, Lyssa, has appeared within the Magus Stones. Defeat is and bring its cipher to me. Quickly now, our time draws near!"
Yes Accept: "Your urgency compels me to oblige!"
No Decline: "My willingness to help is just an illusion."
Ask Ask: "The Facet of Illusions lies in wait in the Magus Stones. Take the Divination. It will lead you."

[edit] Reward dialogue

Kerrsh

"The one you call Lyssa, goddess of illusions... does she mock us? Taunt us? Perhaps she is trying to tell us something. My eyes are open, and my ears strain to hear. We must gather the last cipher. Only then will we understand."

[edit] Notes

  • Facets generally appear near shrines. Always make sure to look around nearby shrines after setting them as your resurrection point.
  • Starting this quest from Rata Sum can make things easier. Simply rezone until you obtain the northern middle spawn point. This is easily determined by a red 75% full "Proximity to Target" bar as soon as you enter Magus Stones to look for the Facet.
