Detailed Walkthrough

Part 1 — Joining the Seekers (Level 1)

  1. You start with a Hastily Scrawled Note describing a strange dream of an endless wheat field and a blinding, all-seeing eye, pointing you to the Seekers of the Lost Eye in Saltbreeze Park, below the Great Guild Hall.
  2. Give the note to Errol Shrewtender. He welcomes you as an Initiate, handing you a Dusty Spiritist Tunic and an Uncured Spirit Pouch (note: the pouch works as a free 4-slot bag until you advance it in the next step, at which point it stops functioning as storage), and sends you to Masoumeh for your first task.
  3. Give the Uncured Spirit Pouch to Masoumeh Akhtar. She asks you to gather 2 Bone Chips (from skeletons), a Fire Beetle Gland (from fire beetles), and Moondew Moss to begin preparing for your Becoming Ritual.
  4. For the moss, head out the West Gate, continue forward and slightly left until you reach the ruins with the Shifty Gnome, then continue west toward a distant green tower. The well is behind a ruined wall near the gnome — at night, type /look to confirm it, then /take moss.
  5. Combine all four items in the Uncured Spirit Pouch to transform it into a Shaman's Fiery Base, then hand it to Masoumeh Akhtar. She treats it with a reagent and returns a Cured Spirit Pouch, telling you to take it upstairs to her father, Eskander.

Part 2 — Brewing the Elixir (Level 4-8)

  1. Two floors up, find Eskander Akhtar (requires level 4 to progress). Hand him the Cured Spirit Pouch, and he asks for a Harvallen Root.
  2. Harvallen Root drops from Ashira shamans in Shaded Dunes, or can be bought from a shady peddler in the Night Market at night, or obtained by saying "root" to a herbmonger and completing her task.
  3. Hand Eskander the Harvallen Root together with the Cured Spirit Pouch. He grinds it into Purified Entheogenic Powder and keeps your pouch to prepare it for the ritual, telling you to come back once you're ready to continue (requires level 8).
  4. At level 8, hand the Purified Entheogenic Powder back to Eskander. He sends you to Errol Shrewtender for the final steps.
  5. Give the powder to Errol Shrewtender. He asks for three more ritual materials — a Duskglow Pod, Grave Dust, and a Deepgloom Mushroom — and hands you an Order for Selenite to give to Masoumeh for a fourth ingredient. Asking Masoumeh Akhtar directly about each material (say "duskglow pod," "grave dust," or "deepgloom mushroom" to her) gives hints on where to find them.
  6. Duskglow Pod (level 8+): found at the oasis north of the Caves of Irem in Shaded Dunes, at night, where there's no sound of a bard's song or chimes — say /take pod.
  7. Deepgloom Mushroom: found in the cave behind a waterfall, where you do hear a bard's song or chimes — say /take mushroom.
  8. Grave Dust: found in one of the side cutouts leading up to the bone construct in the Tomb of the Last Wyrmsbane, where you also hear a bard's song or chimes — say /take dust.
  9. Give the Order for Selenite to Masoumeh Akhtar, who directs you to Foreman Stonehammer at the old Quarry in Sungreet Strand (on the northwest platform, alongside Sister Elara).
  10. Show Stonehammer the Order for Selenite. He asks for his stolen Battered Canteen back first, which drops from a goblin sneak nearby (level 8-10). Hand him both the canteen and the order together to receive Powdered Selenite (handing in the canteen alone without the order won't work — he'll notice the order is missing).
  11. Once you have the Duskglow Pod, Grave Dust, Deepgloom Mushroom, and Powdered Selenite, bring them all to Errol Shrewtender. He combines them into a Shimmering Slurry and hands you both the slurry and a Blessed Spirit Pouch, but explains the ritual can't finish until the guild's stolen Ancient Urn is recovered.
  12. Combine the Shimmering Slurry and Purified Entheogenic Powder inside the Blessed Spirit Pouch to create a Muddy Elixir of Becoming.

Part 3 — Recovering the Urn

  1. Show the Muddy Elixir of Becoming to Errol Shrewtender, who sends you to Masoumeh for details on the missing urn.
  2. Show it to Masoumeh Akhtar as well. She explains the guild's Ancient Urn was stolen by a graverobber named Ariblast, and suggests searching the yards around the city for leads.
  3. The urn is held by Ariblast the Wicked in the Tomb of the Last Wyrmsbane. Kill him and loot the Ancient Painted Urn.
  4. Hand Errol Shrewtender the Ancient Painted Urn together with the Muddy Elixir of Becoming. He performs part of the ritual with the urn and hands you back a Bubbling Elixir of Becoming.
  5. Hand Errol the Blessed Spirit Pouch together with the Bubbling Elixir of Becoming. He purifies both, and rewards you with the Awakened Spirit Pouch and a Purified Elixir of Becoming. Your faction with the Seekers of the Lost Eye improves.
  6. Drink the Purified Elixir of Becoming to complete your Becoming Ritual and the quest — doing so triggers a zone transition into Shaded Dunes.
