Trickster's Haven Guides



For quite some time before my main character hit 40, I would always see, "Class X looking for Trickster's!" scroll across the Qalia regional chat channel as I off adventuring. I always wondered what it was, where it was, and above all, what secrets did it hold? Since I'm finally there, let's find out together.

Within the Northwest portion of the Razad chunk, you'll find a small encampment of tents called Azzad's Outpost. There are a number of quests to be found here but for this guide we're going to start out with just two. 


AzzadExcavation Preparation

You've done some work for a few different members of the motley crew Azzad Ghaturay has gathered, but now it's time to take on a task for the man himself.

By this point in time, Azzad has realized this is not the Lost Palace they were looking for. Being a man of intelligence though, he recognizes this dungeon still has its own treasures and secrets to uncover. It's to this end that Azzad has decided he needs some more information before sending his excavation crew in. Sounds familiar, no?

Once again, you've been asked to stick your head in the lion's mouth. You've gone this far already, and the rewards only get better from here, so why not?

Azzad wants you to map out Trickster's Haven before he sends his excavation crews into the dungeon so they can find their way back out. Considering the amount of death and destruction you'll have to dish out to accomplish this task, I still have yet to figure out how Azzad thinks his excavation crew is going to just stroll in after you've completed the map.




Objectives

  • Locate Pool of Restriction
  • Locate Wall of Denial
  • Locate the Summoning Circle of the Scholars
  • Locate the Pit of the Creeper
  • Locate the Passage of the Untamed

There are five points within the dungeon you need to locate. All five are clearly marked in our Trickster's Haven Map, so locating them should not be difficult.

For the Wall of Denial, the Pit of the Creeper, and the Passage of the Untamed, you need only go far enough into the room to get an update message. You do not actually have to go deep inside. This is particularly useful to know for the Passage of the Untamed, as it is absolutely crawling with undead.

GuardianAfter you've gotten all of the location marked in your quest log, head back out of the dungeon and go talk to Azzad for your quest reward.

When you talk to Azzad again, he is very appreciative of the job you've done with your map and assures you it will be of great assistance to his excavation crews.

Azzad is so impressed with your work that he has also decided to give you a helm, found by one of his crewmembers while they were in the process of setting up camp. As he says to you, "If we have found such a treasure here, I can only imagine what we shall find in the depths of this mysterious cavern." Imagine indeed...

Reward: Choice of helm and 12 silver pieces

Durns Helm of Frost

Himdeils Helm of Strength
