Epic 1.5 text / Walkthrough / Discussion

My husband plays a warrior and when he did his Vxed part of his 1.5 his group did have the enchnater piece drop for them. Unfortunately, I wasn't there and we still had to go back, but it can happen.

[Genoane]

Can the pieces of the staff be gotten out of order? In other words, can I do the All Seeing Eye before finishing getting the rest of the pieces

[Mester]

Yes. Once you get the chest to combine them, you can get the parts in any order.

Well, I don't think you even need the chest, you just have to be able to GET the chest from Jeb.

Hello all, long time listener, first time caller! I was wondering if anyone has been able to find the groundspawn in OOT since the revamp, and if so, is it still located on the sirens isle? I've been looking like a madwoman for what feels like eons with no luck!

Any info would be great!

Thanks!

[Unmei]

Word on the official street is that it's still spawning, but not in an "easy to see" place. Maybe try poking around near rocks and trees and stuff?

[Darvulia]

Thanks for the quick reply! I'll give it another looksie (as Im floating around OOT as I type - hehe)

edit: Looked everywhere, under water, around the goblins, on the other nearby isles. Nothing! Eep!

[Unmei]

Maddoc had this to say on the subject:

The item you mention spawns and is obtainable in the 'new' version of Ocean of Tears, though it's not necessarily in the most conspicuous of places.

A few have had similar difficulties, so I'll probably change the spawn location to be a bit more visible and get it on the list for our next update.

[Breez]

Ya probabley saw this but

Currently, it's not on any of the islands, it's underwater.

Obviously, that's a little difficult to find, given that 'underwater' comprises 90% of the zone, so I've moved the page to the top of one of those islands near the sirens. I'll see if I can get QA to verify it and get it ready for a live-copy.

Ok great so the page in OOT has been moved. Where, what island is it on? I've been to any island with sirens on it and haven't seen a ground spawn yet. Have a loc of this island that it's on?

As the previous post points out, it's not really -on- an island anymore. It's underwater.

I actually wouldn't be surprised if the /loc is the same as the old one, but I haven't personally gone looking.

[dynion]

I tried to go to the old /loc but that is outside the "borders" of the zone now. Circled every island underwater and swam around for hours over several nights just looking. Did get my swimming up to 212 or so.

My guess is you are right but we can't get there .

Hoping the change to put it on one of the islands goes live soon.

[Krowd]

I noticed right off that the /loc posted everywhere was not on the map so I put in a /petition to make sure everything was in order. They got back to me and said "The cryptic page you seek is spawning as it should be. Your fellow players have retrieved it very recently." They even went so far as to give a name of an enchanter on my server who has picked it up and the date he did it on. So I contacted him and he told me about the jumping off the boat trick. Well, I tried and I tried and I tried somemore. I turned off every single thing I could to try to make myself zone faster but I still have the same problem. The boat starts moving before I am done zoning and by the time I am done zoning I am at the docks. I am just curious since when does sony want people exploiting their way outside of a zone border? Because this makes absolutly no sense to me at all. It is just plain stupid. I sure hope they plan on moving it to somewhere that actually exsist because if they do not then I wont be able to finish the quest.

[Yakk]

So the enchanter who has confirmed to have picked it up picked it up outside of the zoneline?

... laugh.

[camlinae]

That or the other was being a jerk about it, unlikely but possible. Reading the problems with he new page location I'm glad I already have my 2.5 and don't have to worry about the quests anymore till they decide to assault us with a 3.0

[Juujichi]

I have same problem. I guess I zone to slow and I am at the dock when I zone into OOT so I can either buy a new PC or screw the lame quest. I can get a much better weapon than the 1.5 possibly better than the 2.0 I just like doing quests but quests that are doable haha.

[Yakk]

It'll be fixed in a bit probably. :) Just a patch cycle or 3, most likely.

[Genadara]

I'm not an Enchanter, but we were helping a guild mate out when we ran into this issue. We had searched the zone,and tried the jump off the boat trick. Nothing worked.

We had a wizard with us, and he faced the zone line in the direction that the ground spawn should have been in. For the heck of it he cast his eye. Believe it or not he was able to find the ground spawn. None of us could get to it, but we know for sure that it is beyond the zone line.

Our enchanter petitioned and got a response that the issue is known and her petition was forwared to the development team. From what we understand it should be patched this Wed. As for people trying tricks, Good luck.. We didn't have any.

Fixed! The page is located on the sirens isle in between the 3 sirens. (yaay!)

[dynion]

Crap lol, either I'm blind or Maelin didn't get fixed or someone picked it up before I did. What is the respawn, anyone know?

I went over all islands twice last night lol, not just the siren islands.

[Sadidas CT]

aren't all the pages 24 hours?... i think thats it been a bit for me.

[dynion]

I read that it is 45 minutes. Got my oot one yesterday. Either I was blind the first 2 times I walked and looked between the sirens or someone was getting it right before me each time. Thanks devs. for finally fixing this and those who posted here for the info.

I did the turn in and am on the way to 1.5 at last! Its been a good weekend and finally getting keyed to the 7th floor of ToFS was fun (long overdue). The junkbeast fight was fun boxing it with pally/berserker/cleric and enchanter. Just need to do the SG fight, Bloodfields and All Seeing Eye this week.

[Goloth]

Holy necro'ed thread Batman!
Yeah.. back for my 2 month freebie.. FINALLY finished my 1.0 and decided to work on the 1.5 for giggles..
Had some technical difficulties in OOT... Finally got in, get to the siren island and no page
Anyone on Xegony know if that spawn is working? I am at 945, 7860 with the 3 sirens and dont see the page anywhere...

EDIT: Nvm.. I guess someone else is also working on their 1.5 and was ahead of me.. After ~2 hours, it popped..
