WALKTHROUGH

Preparation

To start the quest you need to obtain a Sturdy Iron Key and a Tattered Virindi Cloak. Begin by travelling to the Mosswart Hideout at (72.8S, 90.7E) on the Vesayen Isles. It is a little northwest of MacNiall’s Freehold.

Virindi Essence -- A Mosswart Hideout (72.8S, 90.7E)

Warning! The portal drop point is hot, with several Mosswarts waiting for you as you enter!

Proceed west and down. At the intersection turn right (north). At the next intersection turn right again (east) and go down. The passage leads to a room with a few Mosswart Zealots, Mosswart Soul-Trappers, and a Idol. In the south-east corner of the room you will find a passage leading down. Follow the long passage to the final chest room. In the chest room you will encounter 2 Goldenback Tuskers, 5 Drudge Raveners, and a Sotiris Hollow Minion. A couple Mosswart Zealots or a Shadow may run into the room from the nearby passages.

After clearing the room proceed to the chest in the center of the room. It requires a Sturdy Iron Key to open. Inside you will find Virindi Essence, a book titled "A Meeting" [the 3rd installment of a tale by Martine; another piece of lore, Sir Martine's Journal, lies on the ground nearby, in a pool of blood. - Ed.], and some normal SIK loot. The book contains some interesting Lore but is not required for the quest. The two chests in the north-east and south-east corners of the room are unlocked and contain level 2-3 loot.

The Tattered Virindi Cloak -- Mosswart Mire-Witches

The Tattered Virindi Cloak drops from a Mosswart Mire-Witch. Note: While Mire-Witches do appear on the Vesayen Isles, we have yet to hear a report of one dropping a Tattered Virindi Cloak. Those dropping cloaks seem to appear in 'covens' of five witches, and spawn on the southern ocean coast. Adventurers report spawns along the beaches south of Mayoi, and along the southern land bridge. While the spawns appear to be rare, the cloak drop rate seems to be 100%.

Use the Virindi Essence on the Tattered Virindi Cloak to create a Glowing Virindi Cloak. You are now ready to acquire your weapon. Travel to the Moss Chamber at (14.1N, 0.7W). It is a short run west from Zaikhal.

Creating the Weapon -- The Moss Chamber (14.1N, 0.7W)

Inside the Moss Chamber you will find Mosswart Mire-Witches (Lvl 99, and they do not drop virindi cloaks), Mosswart Muck Stalkers (Lvl 79), and Mosswart Clingers (Lvl 99). From the entrance proceed south-east. Follow the right wall, passing a small gated room, and take the stairway leading down to the east. At the bottom of the stairs continue to follow the right wall into a passageway. At the first intersection turn right (north-east) and follow the passage to a small room with a door to the east. Continue through the door into another small room and take the passage down to the east. At the next intersection take a sharp right (south-east). This leads to a room with multiple passageways. Go straight ahead to a flaming brazier you will see on the ground then take a left (east), then a right (south). The passage will curve west then lead down to Gragghk’s Chamber.

[Note: It is not necessary to kill Gragghk, the Mosswart Chief (Lvl 117), or the half-dozen Mosswarts that spawn with him. If you do, you'll retrieve the Torn Mosswart Shroud from his body. When treated with the Virindi Essence it Glows. It may then be turned in for five Diamond Scarabs later on. - Ed.]

Take the Moss Chamber portal just inside the room to the left (south). The portal drop is safe, as there are no fightable monsters within.

Beyond the portal is a large room containing numerous NPC Hollow Minions and Virindi along the walls. Each corresponds to a specific Singularity weapon. In the middle is a Broken Virindi. When you speak to the Broken Virindi, he asks for a Glowing Mosswart Shroud (treated with Virindi Essence) in exchange for a suitable reward from his master. He'll also hand you a text: "Denouement". Give him your Glowing Shroud and the virindi will give you 5 Diamond Scarabs. Note: Doing this means you will NOT receive a Singularity Weapon!

Give the Glowing Virindi Cloak to the correct NPC as listed below to receive the Singularity weapon of your choice.

In the south-west corner from left to right is the Unarmed Minion and the Dagger Minion.

In the north-west corner from left to right is the Crossbow Minion, the Bow Minion, and the Staff Minion.

Along the east wall from left to right the Conquered Virindi (Mace), the Leashed Virindi (Spear), the Tamed Virindi (Sword), and the Beaten Virindi (Axe).

Important: If you die after receiving the Singularity weapon and before completing the remainder of the quest to upgrade the weapon, it will disappear from your inventory and you must wait a week to start the quest again.

The Bound Singularity Weapon - The Black Dominion (88.6S, 25.9W)

The Black Dominion is located on the south ocean coast along the southern land bridge about halfway between the Acolyte Towers (Soul Fearing Quest) and the Mayoi South Dires portal drop. It is restricted to characters of Level 25 or greater. You may enter the portal directly; the entry area is safe.

You may expect to meet Altered Drudges in the first section of the dungeon. After going through a locked door (Resistance = 40) you will encounter Virindi Observers, Virindi Executors, and Terberous Hollow Minions.

After running eastward down the loooong ramp, jump down into a room. You will probably meet your first Altered Drudges here. Dispatch them, and head into a series of intersection north-south and east-west corridors. Your exit point from this area is in a room in the southeast. Exit the room eastward, go down another looooong ramp, and arrive at a locked door, resistance 40. (The door faces a "T"-intersection with a north-south corridor.) Pick the lock. As you wait at this door, you may attract Virindi Observers and Hollow Minions, as there are several in nearby rooms.

There are several methods of obtaining your objective: a large circular pit with several Virindi and Hollow Minions to the northeast. You may take the corridor to the north. This involves entering a large room (and perhaps attracting several monsters), then jumping down into a room . . . with more monsters. Alternatively, take the south corridor, jump down to an east-west corridor, and battle your way north to the room.

After clearing the room, take the east exit corridor on the north side of the room, and immediately turn to the north. Go down the ramp, and you face . . . a jump into a large circular pit filled with Virindi and Minions! If you wish, jump down and fight it out! I, however, am an abject coward. Since the final objective is past this pit, I jumped down and ran for the exit to the south. Several more jumps into lower pits faced me; I kept on jumping.

Eventually, after several jumps, you will arrive at your destination: a pit with two SIK chests, an exit portal, and a Virindi Castaway. You will probably need to fight off any lingering enemies at this point; however, if you die you run the risk of losing your Singularity Weapon! I chose the 'safer' course: I ran up to the Virindi Castaway and gave him my Singularity weapon. He returned me a Bound Singularity Weapon! Then I died!! (I got hit from behind by a Lightning spell.)

Luckily for me, I had upgraded my weapon immediately prior to my death! The result: I retained my weapon. Even better, the Bound Singularity weapons (see our chart, below) come with Crushing Blow and Biting Strike spells. Even more interesting, my Sword now had a spell called 'Virindi Slayer'. Hmmmm! Well, needless to say this upgraded sword was Extremely Useful in re-entering the Black Dominion and retrieving my corpse.

Now, you have the opportunity to upgrade your weapon even further.

The Ultimate Singularity Weapon - The Martinate Holding (59.5N, 77W)

After receiving the Bound Singularity weapon go to Martinate Holding at the northern tip of the Marescent Plateau on Marae Lassel island. There are a couple routes to Martinate Holding: See Portal Routes below.

Note: Either route is a dangerous run. Expect to run across Vapor Golems, Virindi Executors, Chaos Wisps, and Azael Zefirs (Lvl 100!) among other creatures. See our maps of Marae Lassel in the WCoD Maps Archive for directions.

The entry to Martinate Holding should be safe, although on a rare occasion a Tusker or two may have been drawn to the entrance. The dungeon itself is mostly straightforward.

From the portal drop your only choice is to proceed north-east then down the east passage. Ignore any small alcoves on the right or left along the way. The passage then turns south and goes up two ramps. At the top is a brazier with blue flame where the passage turns west. This is your cue to Stop as there is a dispel trap in the west passage.

To avoid the trap run against either wall until you exit the passage into the following room which contains approximately 8 Tuskers and 3 Virindi. Continue west through the room then south through a passage that eventually turns north, leading to a Tusker room.

Pass through the Tusker room to the south, hugging the left wall. This leads to a long, narrow room containing a Virindi and two Tuskers. Beyond the room is another long passageway containing Martinate Hollow Minions. The passage eventually turns west and leads to the lowerTusker room.

The lower Tusker room is inhabited by about 8Tuskers, 4 Martinate Hollow Minions, and a Virindi. Attempt to engage them from the passageway to avoid being surrounded. Exit the room into a passageway to the south which leads up a ramp. Stop at the top of the ramp as there is a Mana Blight trap just beyond. To avoid the trap run against either wall until the passage exits into the Upper Tusker room.

The spawn in the upper Tusker room is the same as the Lower room you just passed through. The exit from the room is a passage to the south. The long passage to the south contains Virindi and Martinate Hollow Minions. Continue south ignoring any small alcoves to the right or left. Eventually the passage will turn left (east) then right (south) leading to a room containing a Virindi NPC named Executor Assistant who stands in front of a glowing blue crystal.

Hand the Virindi NPC a Bound Singularity weapon and it will return to you an Ultimate Singularity weapon.

Note: We are still researching particulars of many of these weapons. If you have details about a weapon we're missing, please contact the Quest Team. Thanks!
