Overview

The Bonemire is a bitter desolate place. A rocky wasteland, doomed to be forever shrouded in darkness, which is why this zone
is also known as the "Realm of Night".  Accessible from Norrath via the
teleportation spires in the Feerott and the Enchanted Lands, and from the sister
realms of the Barren Sky and Tenebrous Tangle, the Bonemire is one of the 3 major zones brought to us
by the Kingdom of Sky expansion pack.

This zone is made up of islands, hovering high above Norrath.  Each
island holds its own wonders to be explored, and most are accessible via cloud
stations from the hub of Bonemire, the Drednever Crash Site.  The islands
that make up this zone are:

• Isle of the Ravasect
• Drednever Crash Site
• Shattered Weir
• Halls of Fate
• Cacotoxic Stain
• Carrion Briar

You'll definitely want to take some time, alone, or with some friends, and
explore each one of these ominous isles!

 

Minimum Level

The Bonemire is geared for the 65-70 level set.  A good group in their
early 60's could likely do okay here though.  I'm personally enjoying this
zone at my current level of 66.  Both soloing and grouping options in this
level range are great!

 

Zones Within the Bonemire

• "The Halls of Fate" An upper 60's heroic
  instance, located in the center of the Bonemire (loc -2, -384, +30).  This is a rather tough zone, a solid group of upper 60's and
  level 70 players will be needed if you want to get too far in.

• "Den of the Devourer" Another mid to upper 60's
  heroic instance, located on the isle of the Drednever Crash Site (loc +81, +94,
  +894)

• "The Blackscale Sepulcher"  A upper 60's, 70
  heroic instanced zone.  Located on the island Cacotoxic Stain(loc +104, +211, -647).

• "Deathtoll"  An Epic instanced zone located on
  the Carrion Briar Island (loc -298, -74, -514).

Quests

• Find Gingus:  This quest comes from the NPC, Brock
  Shrillburst (loc +8, +42, +544) at the Drednever Crash Site.  You are
  asked to find Assistant Technician Gingus, last seen heading southwest in
  search of a lost airship part (loc +286, +49, +575).  You'll want to
  talk to Gingus, then grab the lug that is next to him and return it back to
  Brock.  This quest opens up the following quest, "A Poisoned
  Gingus".  Reward: Brocks Thermal Shocker (a charm), Experience,
  and Faction.
• A Poisoned Gingus:  Opened after completing the
  previous quest, this one is received when you hail the NPC, Elly Nerwick
  (loc +25, +43, +518), also located at the Drednever Cash Site, near
  Brock.  She asks you to gather venom of whatever has poisoned Gingus
  (loc +286, +49, +575), presumably the the wasteland strider spiders near
  where he lays.  Gather 8 strider venom sacs (by killing the spiders)
  and return them back to Elly.  Reward:  Experience and Faction
• A Cured Gingus:  This quest is the 3rd and final in the "Gingus"
  series of quests.  Elly asks you to take the anti-venom back to Gingus
  so that he may be cured.  Hail Gingus, then escort him back to Elly. 
  You need to stay near him, this guy is super whiny and apparently dies if
  you leave his side.  Once he is back at the camp and with Elly, hail
  Elly for your reward!  Reward: Wrist or hand item, Experience, and
  Faction.
• Bonemire Creature Study:  Weneb Tacklenogg (loc -29, +43,
  +524) sends you to catalog creatures around the Drednever Crash Site. 
  He asks for 12 Ashengaze spines from the Ashengaze Basilisks, and 12
  legstalks from the Wasteland Striders.  Once you've gathered those,
  return to Weneb for your reward.  Reward: Exprience, Coin, and
  Faction.
• Doomwing Digging:  Nepther'tum (loc -19, +43, +519), found at
  the Drednever Crash Site, asks you to investigate the Doomwing dig site,
  where you will examine a box (loc +103, +79, +623) and the Doomwing pit,
  (loc -192, +64, +753) where you will examine another chest. Return to
  Nepther'tum for the quest update.  Reward:
  Coin, Experience, and Faction.
• The Taloned Vigil Infiltrators:  The quest is made available
  once the "Doomwing Digging" quest has been completed.  Given
  by Nepther'tum (loc -19, +43, +519), he asks you to find Yazid (loc -259,
  -341, -71) found on the Halls of Fate island, near the cloud station. 
  Yazid will then give you another quest that leads to the "Premonitions
  of Doom" quest .  Reward: Experience.
• Fetid Harvest:  Dabner Drednever (loc -19, +43, +523)
  wishes for you to gather 16 Fetidthorn Spores, found through out the area, I
  found them all over the island, at the base of the trees.  Once you
  have collected them all, return to Dabner for quest update.  Reward: 
  Experience, Coin and Faction.
• Information from the Droag:  On the Cacotoxic Island, NPC
  Aetryol Monsoon (loc +479, +242, -753) is found up on the mountainous edge
  of the isle.  To get to him, drop from the right side of the landing
  pad, and follow the path up the edge of the island.  He will give you a
  series of quests that will eventually reward you with a nice earring. 
  In this first one, he asks that you find the 2 tomes located in the droag
  towers.  They are in the towers closest to Aetryol.  Find the
  tomes, then take them back to Aetryol for your reward.  This will open
  up the two following quests.  Reward: Experience and Coin.
• Flame of the Corpse Candle:  After completing the previous
  quest, Aetryol asks that you catalog a corpse candle for him.  To do
  this, you must sedate the corpse candle by bringing it a droag corpse to
  feed off of.  Both the droags and corpse candle are found on Cacotoxic
  Stain, but the droag that you slay, must be a live one, not one of the
  undead  (if you are running solo, you might wish to hop to another
  island to grab a non heroic droag for this quest).  Slaying a droag will
  place a corpse into your inventory, take this to a corpse candle and place
  it.  Once the corpse candle goes non aggro, catalog it for your
  update!  Then return to Aetryol for your reward.  Reward: 
  Experience and Coin.
• Colony:  This quest comes from the NPC, Aetryol on Catotoxic
  Stain after completing the quest "Information from the Droag" and
  is the final quest in the 3 quest series from this NPC.  He asks that
  you bring him 8 ravasect eggs from the newly formed colony.  The colony
  is found in a underwater cave (loc +430, +198, -531).  Once inside,
  slay the eggbearers and then retrieve the eggs from the goo that drops onto
  the ground, then return to Aetryol for your reward.  Reward: (after
  completing all 3 quests) Experience, Coin, and your choice of ear item with
  varying stats and in combat regeneration effect.
• A Mark of Awakening:  You receive this quest by hailing
  an Exiled Droag (loc -131, +78, +1060), found down the climbable wall on the
  south end of the island. You then need to complete a series of tasks,
  finally ending in an epic event.
  • He first asks you to find and read the Book
    of Sacrifice, found inside the Sanctum of the Scaleborn, going down the east
    side of the zone, on the upper level (loc -101, +66, -32).
  • Harvest a unhatched dragon egg, also found in the Sanctum (loc +82, +39, -166)
    in the same room as the Remnants of Spirit.  Return to the book and
    place the egg, then read the book again for the update.
  • You then need to find the Book of Power, found in the Palace of the
    Awakened.  Touch the book, then find the key to unlock it. The key is located on the first
    floor. In the first room on the left in one of the wings.
  • Find the Book of Trials, located within the Halls of Fate (loc
    -19,  +2,  -96). You need to find a skeleton to unlock it.
    This is located in the Sothis room, on the ledge over looking him.
  • You are then asked to complete 4 trials.  The last being a epic
    x4 raid instance.  
  • 1st - Group trial, mid to upper
    60s. Speed trial, must be done in 30minutes (I believe). Group invis and run to
    last room. Clear the room, which will cause a ring event. Clear the repops. Then
    a named will spawn. Kill him to get update.
  • 2nd - Group trial, mid to upper
    60s. Endurance trial. Fight to last room (very short zone) Kill the mobs in the
    middle. They will keep spawning over and over (about 15ish waves) Till the
    nameds spawn. Kill to get update
  • 3rd - Solo trial, zone in and
    examine the statue to be transformed into a dragon. Then go on to kill
    everything which triggers a ring event in the middle (Just like the endurance
    one) Keep killing till the named spawns. Kill for update.
  • 4th - Raid Trial. 72 epicx4.
    Recommended all players 67+. Zone respawns……really fast. Need to keep moving and
    have good communication to avoid wipes.Fight down the first hallway to the
    circle room, you can rest in the middle of it. Go left (as the right door will
    be locked) travel all the way down and killed named. Go back to the middle and
    rest. The right door will now be open. Travel down the right path, clear
    everything and kill warden (named). After this it is recommended to wait for
    repops before taking the dragon (repops during fight = death). Dragon has
    GIANT aggro, you step into the room at all, you get him.
  • Huge thanks to Deludar Mofaka of Evolution on the Nektulos server for the above information on the "Mark of Awakening" quest.
    I'd offer to have his babies, but I don't know him, so that would be weird.
• Lore and Legend:  Kingdom of Sky L&L quest info is
  available here!
• Language Quests:  Kingdom of Sky Language quest info can be
  found here!

Solo Opportunities

One of my favorite things about the Kingdom of Sky expansion, is it's solo
friendly content.  Not only are there tons of solo mobs and quests to
choose from, but they also come in more varying degrees of difficulty.  I
love being able to find the even con and ^ solo mobs all over the place.  I
also did the majority of the above quests, solo.  They yield nice
experience and a little bit of change for my slim pockets.

On any given island, you will be able to find such mobs; spiders, ravasect,
droags, and much more.  My favorite spots were on the Drednever Crash Site,
killing spiders and basilisks, on the Isle of the Ravasect slaying many a
ravasect (all bugs must die!), and all over taking out the many droag that roam
the islands.

Grouping Opportunities

So far, I've had some group fun slaying ravasects and droag.  The Halls
of Fate is a great grouping zone, it's both challenging and rewarding.

I'd love to hear your favorite solo and grouping spots in the Bonemire! 
Drop me a note and let me know where you just love to hunt.

 

I hope you've enjoyed my little walk through of this zone.  Please feel
free to e-mail me with any additions or suggestions at any time, I love hearing
from you!
