EVERQUEST 16TH ANNIVERSARY EVENTS

Where to find them and how to do them!

It can't be beat! Sixteen is sweet! - Bonzz

ANNIVERSARY LORE

There were no Anniversary Events before the 5th Year of EverQuest.

However, upon the 5th Anniversary of EverQuest, a temporary, special Anniversary event was added to the game.

After that, it became an annual tradition in EverQuest, with new Anniversary related events being added each year, as well as the old ones being reactivated right along beside them.

Anniversary Events generally start around March 16th (EverQuest was launched March 16, 1999), and continue to as late as mid-May.

There are now so many Anniversary Events that they are implemented / divided in two parts... "Modern" events (14th Anniversary and forward) and "Legacy" events (5th to 13th Anniversary).

The "Legacy" events do not award Commemorative Coins, but do include Fabled MOB's (introduced in 2008). These events do not start until near mid-April.

The "Modern" events start right away and generally award Commemorative Coin, which is a specialty coin that can used to buy special items with "a jubilant merchant" in the Plane of Knowledge (near the Nexus stone, and the stuff ain't cheap!).

The Mechanical Fortune Teller (near the Crescent Reach stone) was added to the Plane of Knowledge, to help direct you to the events (by year), because now, there are a lot of them. Just hail her and follow along.

Download and unzip this file to the 'storyline' folder of your EverQuest directory to have access to a generic, simplified version of these quests, in game, via your Story Window (Alt N)! NOTE: This file can be updated in the event of typo corrections, errors and new events, so you may need a fresh download / install every so often.

16TH ANNIVERSARY

Belle of the Ball (Solo)

1) SET-UP: First, some preparations!

You will need the following No Trade items from the following zones:

Next, grab a tailoring kit (any kind) and a mixing bowl (any kind).

.

2) PLANE OF KNOWLEDGE: You are looking for Zantog, the Greatest, who is behind the bar building, near the main bank.

This is a solo task.

Hail Zantog, the Greatest and follow along, or just try saying, 'Vanity and Glory' to get this task.

Then say 'Transport' to Zantog, the Greatest, to get teleported to the next zone.

.

3) MORELL'S CASTLE: You are looking for Vanglorious Gloria (a marionette) & Cruel Danille (a jester), who are both north, up the ramp / steps, and at the top of the steps in the next area.

.

4) MORELL'S CASTLE: Now head up the west steps / ramp to the 'candy land' area.

.

4) MORELL'S CASTLE: Now for a choice, get the bonus item (see below) or not (just do the hand in).

BONUS ITEM: To get the bonus item, head to Crescent Reach, near the tree where the dragons are. All about you should see a fluffy grove hare. Click the Sticky Marshmallow Goo on twenty-five (25) of them, then head back to Morell's Castle.

Head down and back to Cruel Danille.

Give the Sticky Marshmallow Goo to Cruel Danille, to finish up.

If you did the Crescent Reach step, you will get a Metamorph Totem: Speckled Hare.

You will get 10 Commemorative Coins.  There is a 6-hour lock-out timer before you can do this task again, if you want to.

Pub Crawl (Group)

1) SETTING UP: First, some preparations!

NOTE: If you are only after the Drunkard's Stein, you only need to complete Step 2, to get the task.

You will need the following:

You will also need access (the ability) to use the Lost Dungeons of Norrath 'Magus' NPC's, to save time and effort. If you do not have this access, you will need to do the quest outlined here.

NOTE: Optional, you just acquire the Emerald Orange Schnapps, Faydwer Schnapps and / or Skunk Breath Ale from other Players (i.e. The Bazaar).

Next, you will need to set up six (6) Hot Buttons, along with Audio Triggers, so you can click to say ('sing') the following:

OPTIONAL: If you think you are fast enough to Shift Up in the test box, six (6) lines, and then hit enter, you can simply cut & paste the above lines, in order, into your chat window and do it that way.

Grammar and spelling exactly as noted above, is essential. Name the Hot Buttons whatever you want, but I suggest 'Stein1' to 'Stein6,' so you know the correct order to click them (explained later).

I also STRONGLY suggest that you set up six (6) Audio Triggers, for the same phrases (without the '/say' part).

This will give you an audible alert on when to click your Hot Buttons, rather than watch for the line in chat window spam that may be going on (also explained later).

.

2) PLANE OF KNOWLEDGE: You are looking for Brasse, who is on Find, behind the small bank (/waypoint -305, 970).

This is a group task, but you can get it solo.

You must be Level 21, have an Alcohol Tolerance of at least fifty (50) and also be drunk, before you talk to Brasse!

You can buy alcoholic drinks from Brewmaster Berina, who is also right there, to get drunk with.

If you meet the requirements and are also sufficiently drunk, you will be able to hail Brasse and follow along.

Hand her one (1) Ogre Swill at a time, until she responds with quest (bracketed) text, then follow along, to get this group task.

She will give you a Dwarf Disguise (Dwarf Illusion item).

>>>>>NOTE: If you are only after the Drunkard's Stein, you can now skip to Step 7! You no not need to complete any other steps!<<<<<

.

3) SOUTH KALADIM: You are looking for Hanamaf Darkfoam, who is to the left from the zone in area (/waypoint 80, 225).

Hail him and then follow along, if needed.

Right there in the same area, you should see Tsann Wilbus. Hail him and then follow along, if needed.

The idea with Tsann Wilbus, is to win a  drinking contest with him (drink and try to stay 'more sober' than Tsann Wilbus).

Thus, a high Alcohol Tolerance is advantageous, starting out fully sober (recover from Step 1), and also by drinking the less effective alcoholic beverages ('respectable" drinks vs. 'Persuasive' or 'Potent' drinks, see Alcohol Tolerance).

What you do is:

Next, take off your primary, secondary and range items.

You need to find Dwantin Cassilla, who should be right there in the same area.

Hail Dwantin Cassilla and follow along (/say fight), and then fight him in unarmed (hand to hand) combat, until he reaches 20%, whereupon he will surrender.

He will give you Brasse's Stein Lid.

You can put your gear back on, now.

.

4) BUTCHERBLOCK MOUNTAINS: Head to the Lost Dungeons of Norrath NPC camp to find Magus Tira (/waypoint 1080, -2455).

Hail her, then give her twenty (20) Elven Wine, to convince her to teleport you to Nedaria's Landing.

.

5) NEDARIA'S LANDING: Magus Wenla is nearby (/waypoint 1025, 1525).

Talk to Magus Wenla, to get teleported to The Abysmal Sea.

.

6) THE ABYSMAL SEA: You are looking for Galidnus Corkpopper, who is in the bar (baking / brewing) area (/waypoint -165, 115).

Hail him for an update, then buy from him a Brasse's Bitter Brew (optional, see below).

Nearby, you will see Galdorin Visigothe (/waypoint -165, 200). Hail him.

.

7) THE ABYSMAL SEA: It is at this point that you can get the bonus item, Drunkard's Stein (an instant click portal to the Plane of Knowledge).

BONUS ITEM: This is where the Hot Buttons & Audio Triggers (see Step 1) come into play. Every five (5) minutes, Galdorin Visigothe will sing a song.  Be sure that you target Galdorin Visigothe. Each time he sings a line of the song, immediately sing it back to him (click the appropriate Hot Button, as each Audio Trigger goes off, to 'sing the same line just sung by Galdorin Visigothe), before he sings the next line! Be quick!

NOTE: Do not be Invisible.

Do this successfully, for all six (6) lines, and you will get a Drunkard's Stein (an instant gate clickie, to the bar in the Plane of Knowledge). If you fail, you can try again in five (5) minutes.

But wait, there's more! This is a group task, it has a 24 hour timer and the task is not locked!

What this means is that you can /taskadd five (5) other Characters, who can also come into The Abysmal Sea to get their own Drunkard's Stein, in the same manner! You read that correctly, the other Characters do not have to do the full quest to get their own Drunkard's Stein! Thee simply have to do this step! After that, those Characters can drop the task and five (5) more Characters can be task added to come and get their own Drunkard's Stein, in the same manner!

You can do this as long as the task is active! 

You can even change the leaders of the Task, so you can bring in your own Alts!

WARNING: If you plan to actually complete the task, don't let time run out on you, even though the task time is 24 Hours!

.

8) THE ABYSMAL SEA: You will need to acquire an item from Galdorin Visigothe, before you leave.

Click the Brasse's Bitter Brew to get a Bitter Bottle.

Target Galdorin Visigothe and click the Bitter Bottle on him.

You can either keep clicking a Bitter Bottle on him (you will need more Brasse's Bitter Brew), or you can get drunk and hail him, until he gives you Brasse's Stein Handle.

.

9) THE FEEROTT: Head to the bridge, not far (southwest) from Oggok (/waypoint 665, 1085).

Dive in the water and swim around the bottom under the bridge until you get a buff called, (?MUCK?) which is a faction buff with Ogre Guards.

.

10) OGGOK: Next, go find Leelouu, who is in the east / central part of the zone in a tavern (/waypoint 235, -240).

Your final target is Captain Turek, who is inside that stone hut closest to the pirate ship (The Broken Wing) and there are two (2) pirates just outside the hut, as well.

Captain Turek is leashed to this area, so you will have to fight him here. He also has a 12.8K DoT and a 25K nuke.

BONUS ITEM: The key to getting the bonus item, is killing Captain Turek as fast as possible, so that he drops a Treasure Map, instead of a Burnt Treasure Map. A 'Cannonball' (77K AoE) will be periodically fired from the ship (The Broken Wing). You can drag Captain Turek around to try and avoid it, but with enough DPS, you don't need to.

But wait! When Captain Jack Aviak stops moving or comes back (he will go to the edge of the nearby mountain, to the northeast, not far from the stone huts), hand him the Treasure Map and he will give it back.

Now click the Treasure Map and it will lead you a treasure chest (follow the yellow trail or go to the 'X' on the map), which will not pop into view until you find it.

Open a treasure chest to get the bonus item (aug), a Shimmering Black Pearl (45 AC; +350 HP / Mana / Endurance; +12 Spell Damage; +12 Heal Amount; CHA +20 all Stats; +6 Heroic all Stats except CHA).
