EVERQUEST 24TH ANNIVERSARY EVENTS
Where to find them and how to do them!
Twenty-four years... full of adventures! Still going strong... even with dentures! - 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. |

STONES OF THE UNKNOWN (Shared Task)
NOTE: This task is very vague and full of extreme red herrings and misdirects. It is one of the hardest seasonal tasks there has been for a while, if ever. So much so, that it took a number of experienced / veteran Players on Test pursuing this one, to eventually figure out everything... despite the so-called clues. If you like a big challenge, then I suggest you ignore the guide on this task and venture forth! Good luck if you do!
1) PLANE OF FIRE: You are here to find a ground spawn Plane of Fire Marble Chunk (it looks like a gray rock).
You can pick this up in advance and will save time to do so.

.
2) THE FEERROTT: You are looking for Talesiyn the Driven, who is on the west wall, towards the south, among some undead MoB's (/waypoint -555, 2820).
Hail Talesiyn the Driven and follow along, or just try saying, "enough," to get this task.
NOTE: While this is a Shared (group) task, but you can do it Solo.
Continue to follow along for three (3) more updates (say 'giantish rune,' 'source of the stone,' & 'lingering magic').

NOTE: You can run south and then east around to this location, or you can speed it up a bit by using the portals, that is, if you have them activated and know how to use them. If you are interested in how to activate and use portals, click here!
Now you are looking for Archarcanist Pintanus, who is on the main floor inside the center pyramid (/waypoint -105, 100).
