Prerequisite Quest: Sunport Seeks Adventurers!
Lector Volonaro has asked me to place alchemical deterrents in the Sunport Bay Forest to aid in the efforts of restoring local ruins.


Quick Walkthrough[edit]

  1. Talk to Lector Volonaro
  2. Enter the Xi-Tak Ruins.
  3. Place four alchemical deterrents in the area
  4. Return to Lector Volonaro.

Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

Speak to Lector Volonaro in Sunport to begin the quest.

"The College of Stones is interested in restoring ruins near Sunport's Bay Forest that could prove vital in the control of the island's waterways. There's only one problem—their restoration efforts are being impeded by horrid beasts."
You want me to kill the beasts?
"Something so crude would only provide temporary aid. No, I need someone to place these alchemical deterrents. They'll encourage the beasts to avoid the area and, by extension, the College of Stones' builders. And, of course, you'll be paid."
I'll place the alchemical deterrents for you.

Make your way to the Xi-Tak Ruins in Solstice. The point-of-interest is south of Broken Light Temple in the northern portion of Solstice. Your task is to make your way through the area to place four samples of Alchemical Deterrent. Use the quest markers to narrow the area to search.

After that, return to Lector Volonaro for your reward.

I placed the alchemical deterrents.
"Good, good! Now work on the ruins can continue swiftly and with far fewer builders complaining of bites and bruises. I mean, really. How hard can it be to place a bandage and get back to work?
Here, your pay."

Notes
* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
