Notes[]

The combines for this timeline are VERY long. Without potions they are taking 3-5 minutes EACH. Plan accordingly. There is a LOT of running on the quest. Bring as many evac items as you can manage. A floaty cloak is also useful to save time getting down from the towers.

Required Materials[]

Bring at least:

  1. Enter Bastion of Thunder: Lightning Strikes [Tradeskill] at ( -95, 3, -164 ) Copy.
  2. Use the teleporter pad at ( -212, -19, 44 ) Copy to travel to the Tower of the Rainkeeper then speak to Karana at ( -29, 994, 191 ) Copy.

      • Found around the base of The Sandstorm Floor Tower (NE) ( -660, -15, -635 ) Copy.
    • 5 Pure Water from the pool in front of Karana.
      • You need a bucket.
      • The bucket is found around or at the top of one of the towers. It is trackable; however, tracking won't "see" it from the base of the tower if it has spawned at the very top, so you may have to go up a few levels before detecting it.
      • Possible locations of a bucket:
        • Sand Tower ( -752, 198, -709 ) Copy
        • Lightning Tower ( 727, 198, 719 ) Copy
        • Ice Tower ( 774, 198, -716 ) Copy
        • Wind Tower ( -631, -16, 552 ) Copy
      • Use the teleporter pad at ( -212, -19, 44 ) Copy to go back to the Tower of the Rainkeeper
      • Collect the pure water in the pool at ( -32, 992, 139 ) Copy
  6. Craft the Untempered Lightning Rods at the 'Forge of Storms' ( 22, -2, 5 ) Copy next to to the zone-in.
  7. Craft the Heated Clay Temper
  8. Examine the Heated Clay Temper in your inventory to apply it to the lightning rods
  9. Speak with Edlias the wyvern at ( -616, -16, -550 ) Copy.
    Edlias

    Edlias

    • This step gives tradeskill exp. {at TS level 115, ~444,983,241; not counting bonuses.}
  10. Pick up a block of ice at the top of the NW Tower ( 748, 198, -721 ) Copy.
    Block of Ice

    Block of Ice

    • Note: This will start a 5 min timer.
    • It is possible to featherfall all the way back to the hall while holding your icecube, and a lot easier than skidding back on foot.
    • to assist in lessening travel time, making use of speed-boosting items will be helpful! e.g. Totem of the Deadly Sabertooth(gives 75% boost!), Earring of the Solstice(45% boost), etc.
  11. Return to Edlias and place the block at ( -606, -14, -556 ) Copy.
    • Known issue: The sparkly locator will not be there if you had to set the block down before reaching Edlias; you may have to try a few placements before it "clicks".
  12. Speak to Edlias. Then place the rods on the sand patch in front of him. Note the hint about "standing aside" -- move to his side or stand behind him if you don't want to get knocked off the tower and die.
  13. When Edlias has finished pick up the rods, then click the ice block to quench them. Once quenched, retrieve them.
  14. Place the four tempered lightning rods around the Tower of Thunder (SW), stand back to avoid being knocked back to your death by the strike of lightning and then collect the Solidified Lightning from the placed lightning rods:
