Ergo Quest Walkthrough
Ok. This will obviously be a post updated over time, but thought I'd get it started as I completed 2 Ergo quests so far and wanted to help those in need out. I found it fun traveling around without a walkthrough, but if for whatever reason you don't feel like running back and forth read on. If you want to suprise yourself then obviously don't read on
Ergo Quest #1: Insipid Ring
This ring is currently not needed to get into Shadowlands, though it's believed so by many. Perhaps in the future it will be the permanent key to getting to SL, but I have a feeling you have to do ALL of Ergo's quests to get a ring that will allow this instead of having to pay the toll. Those of you who were on Beta may want to correct me.
You will need 4 parts to bring to Ergo Guardian of the Shadows:
A Burnt Out Memory Chip
Circuit board
Copper Wire
Small Power Supply
Confirmed locations are: Foreman's, Subway, Steps of Madness, Smugglers Den, Cyborg Barracs. Foreman's and SoM having higher drop rates from my experience, but being heavily camped and a slow respawn rate.
Once you have these 4 items travel to Yuttos Camp in Wailing Wastes at 509x533 and talk to Ergo, give him the pieces and you will recieve an Insipid Ring specific to your profession (Infantry Unit for MAs). If you are TL6 you will recieve a Caliginous Ring and I presume you do not have to do the 2nd quest to get into the Island of Scheol. Neurobatica tried to get in using the ring before she did the quest and failed, but because she didn't gain any items from the quest I presume she probably could have gotten in without going through it. If anyone can confirm that they can enter without having to do the quest let me know.
Ergo Quest #2: Caliginous Ring
This ring will grant you passage to Scheol, located North of Elysium.
Part 1:
Again you will need 4 items to bring to good ol' Ergo:
Mortiig's Heart
Imp's Wing
Hiathlin's Spine
Ermite's Vibrissa
Coords for each (all on Elysium):
Lost Mortiig - 584x1174 in Callous (SW Elysium on a sandy spot on the water, never moves)
Lost Imp - 764x1378 (forgot the name of the area, zone North of where the Mortig is)
Lost Hiathlin - 861x1826 spawn in the water, wanders around Jagged Coast, Brink, Eastfang and Excalibur's Point (south of the dark island which is NE of Elysium)
Lost Eremite - 552x1613 in Shell Beach (big sandy area NW Elysium)
Unfortunately the map is currently bugged and you might get confusedHopefully will be fixed soon.
The process for all of these is exactly the same (<name> will represent the creature you are looking for):
First you find "Lost <name>" (eg Lost Mortiig). Kill it, then a "<name> from out of nowhere" will appear. After killing that one, a "Another <name> you didn't see" will pop up so sock it in the mouth (this one's a bit tougher usually). Then you will finally get 4 big copies, 3 of which are "Fragile <name>" and one of which is "Healthy Looking <name>". Kill the healthy one, and knock out the weak ones.
DO NOT LOOT ANY OF THE CORPSES BEFORE THE HEALTHY ONE POPS UP. I looted the Lost Mortiig and when the Healthy one died later it just disappeared before I could loot it. What is happening here is you are pulling these mobs from somewhere in the area, and theoretically you could find the Healthy ones along with the Frail ones hiding around, but it was only the Mortiig I ran into later in a crevice this way so it's not too easy to find them.
A note about the Ermites, they are under ground so you will have to keep tabbing to find them, even the ones that popup once you've killed the previous mob.
Part 2:
Now bring all these pieces to Ergo located in a cave in Northern-most Elysium marked by an orange dot on your map. He will give you a "Mark of the Challenger" in your inventory. If you feel like doing the next part (not too hard if you're 140+) tell him you're ready to betest the Challenger and give him the Mark back, and you'll get a key and a mission. Go to the next room in which there is a glowing portal and you'll be transported into a dungeon which looks different every time you get this mission. Find the Challenger (a big rolled up rock) which you can see on your local map as a red dot, kill him and loot his "Tooth of the Challenger". Exit back through the main door, give Ergo the Tooth, the Mark and the Inspid Ring and in return you will get the Caliginous Ring and be able to get into Scheol! YAY! *pat on the back*
More Ergo quests to come as knowledge of them gets out
