ACCESS TO THEATER OF BLOOD
Prophecy of Ro Progression
Theater of Blood (ToB) can only be accessed by way of porting yourself to the zone (from anywhere). These tasks gain you this teleport access to ToB.
You can get here by either using the item you get, or the AA Hot Key you are awarded.
This zone is also known as the Plane of Music.
This is also part of access to Deathknell, the Tower of Dissonance.
NOTE: While the Chime turn-ins, noted below, do not have to be done in the order or at the steps indicated (they cannot be done before indicated but they can all be done after indicated), it is easier to just do them when noted.
NOTE: The Missions/tasks noted below do not have to be done in order, but certain tasks/missions or series of tasks/mission must be accomplished.
NOTE: If you are the person getting the tasks, you must do them in order, as one task unlocks the next task for you.
NOTE: Some of these missions are Spell/Disc missions for many classes.
UPDATE: In 2008 Sony decided to allow access to this zone by merit of Level (Level 68).

TWISTED HARMONIC CHIME: Lore, No Trade, Magic, Charm, Weight 0.0, Effect: Alter Plane: Theater of Blood
. .
STATUS: Completed & verified!
..
Skylance Missions Razorthorn Access Samples of Corruption
.
1) SKYLANCE: The first leg of this quest is accomplishing all three of the Skylance missions.
For details on these missions, click here.
.
2) ARCSTONE, ISLE OF SPIRITS: After you have completed, step one (above), you should have received the Tarnished Chime and then turned it in for the Harmonic Chime (Lore, No Trade, Magic, Weight 0.0).
Go find Arch Mage Galsin (Level 70).
He is in one of the tents, right there at the zone in.
Hail him and follow along, or just give him the Harmonic Chime.
He will give back to you a Silent Harmonic Chime (Lore, No Trade, Magic, Weight 0.0)
.
1) ACCESS: Next up, you need to gain access to Razorthorn, Tower of Sullon Zek.
NOTE: This entire section (Step 1 to Step 3) can be by-passed, if you tag along with someone who has this access.
.
2) This access is gained by completing the Saga Skins task.
.
3) Completing Step 2 (above) will automatically put you into the next task ("Preparing Your New Skins"), which will allow you to obtain the final task ("Becoming the Vessel.").
For details on these two tasks, click here.
.
1) THE DEVASTATION: Look for Oathmir the Outcast (Level 74), right there at the zone in.
NOTE: Make sure you have a bag slot open.
Hail him and follow along to get the group mission/task called "Samples of Corruption."
You can request a normal or hard version. The Hard Version has a shorter respawn time (about 20 minutes as compared to an hour-plus) and non-mezzable MOB's (Level 74-plus).
Only someone who has completed Razorthorn access (above) can obtain this task... but others can tag along with them.
I suggest a very good group complete with a puller, good healer, slower, a good tank and decent DPS.
The person getting the task will be given a Runed Silver Box (No Trade, Lore, Magic, 10-Slot Small, 0% Weight Reduction, Weight 10.0).
Hold on to it.
.
2) RAZORTHORN, TOWER OF SULLON ZEK: SAMPLES OF CORRUPTION: Head to this instanced zone.
It is accessed via a portal at the center tower, inside Sverag, Stronghold of Rage.
.
3) When you zone in, you will appear in a square room.
One of the walls is a fake wall that leads to the rest of the zone.
Your goal here is to loot ten (10) Vial of Corrupted Blood (Magic, Weight 2.0).
So basically, you just slaughter MOB's (Level 65 to 73) until you get them. However -- along the way, every so often, A Shadow of Rage (Level 70 to 72) will appear, right on top of the group.
This is why crowd control and a good puller is important, as you really don't want him to appear while you have more than one other MOB engaged.
This is because he will instantly charm you (or one of your group mates) and you will be faced with A Shadow of Rage, any MOB's you were in the process of killing and your group-mate... all attacking at the same time.
Be sure to focus on A Shadow of Rage, because as soon as it is dead, the charm goes away with him.
.
4) Once you have all ten (10) Vial of Corrupted Blood, combine them in the Runed Silver Box.
This will create a Sealed Runed Silver Box (Lore, No Trade, Magic, Weight 10.0).
.
5) THE DEVASTATION: Head back to Oathmir the Outcast.
Give him the Sealed Runed Silver Box, for the win.
A Crumbling Chest (Level 1) will appear (right there) with a loot item for the group to roll on.
It appears there is also the possibility that A Shadow of Rage (Level 70) may spawn and attack. You will need to kill it (it can charm layers).
.
6) Now give Oathmir your Silent Harmonic Chime.
He will give back to you a Twisted Chime (Lore, No Trade, Magic, Weight 0.0).
.
7) ARCSTONE, ISLE OF SPIRITS: Go back to Arch Mage Galsin.
Hail him and follow along, or just give him the Twisted Chime.
He will give back to you a different version of the Twisted Chime (Lore, No Trade, Magic, Weight 0.0).
.
1) The Key to the Past 2) The Burning Prince
.
1) NORTHERN DESERT OF RO: You are looking for Tak'Valnakor (Level 50).
He is located in the area of p6885, n1350, in a small building. Hail him and follow along, or just try saying, "Ancient City?" to get this task.
.
2) RUINS OF TAKISH HIZ: You are looking for Krylin (Level 70).
He is located in a building along the left wall, just past Lilthill`yan`s Ghost (Level 70). Hail him and follow along, or just try saying, "Discover?" to complete this step.
.
3) THE ROOT OF RO: This is an instanced zone.
It is located in a cave on the right wall, after zoning into the Ruins of Takish-Hiz.
You need to loot four (4) items, that drop off random MOB's (all Level 65? to Level 72).
Simply kill your way towards the center and up the ramps/ladders as you try to locate the following items:
A Sandstone Tablet Chunk (Lore, No Trade, Weight 2.0)
A Piece of Sandstone Tablet (Lore, No Trade, Weight 2.0)
Part of a Sandstone Tablet (Lore, No Trade, Weight 2.0)
A Portion of a Sandstone Tablet(Lore, No Trade, Weight 2.0)
.
4) After getting those four (4) pieces, hopefully you are near the top of the zone (ramps/ladders).
At the the top you will find BeauDril The Queens Defender (Level 71 to level 72). You need to kill him. He hits for up to 1.2K, enrages and flurries.
Once he is dead, loot A Broken Section of Sandstone Tablet (Lore, No Trade, Weight 2.0).
.
5) NORTHERN DESERT OF RO: Head back to Tak'Valnakor.
NOTE: You can gimp people in, but do so before this turn in.
Give him the five (5) items you looted (see above), to finish the task.
A Chest (Level 1) will spawn (right there) with a loot item for your group to roll on
.
.
1) NORTHERN DESERT OF RO: Speak with Tak'Valnakor, again.
Just hail him and follow along, or just try saying, "Rest?" to get this task.
.
2) Now find Queen Tak`Yaliz (Level 60).
She is in or near a building in the southeast area of the zone, near the water in the area of p5947, n2092.
Hail her and follow along or just say, "Enter" to be teleported into the instanced zone.
Everyone will need to do this, as it will teleport only the one player (not the entire group).
.
3) RUINS OF TAKISH HIZ: THE BURNING PRINCE: This is an instanced zone.
If you have a real good puller (Monk), you don't have to leave the zone line.
This is because your targets can be train pulled near the zone line and then single tagged and killed.
If you don't, you will simply have to slaughter your way through this.
You need to kill five "Priests" (all Level 71 to Level 72) as follows:
Priest Kaltricor
Priest Nalmon
Priest Taslin
Priest Detrituss
Priest Coltrolin
They are located in the building just to your left after you zone, the building ahead and to the right, the building in the far northwest and two are in the building on the far west wall (one in the near northern round room and one in the far northern round room).
.
4) Once all the Priests are down, it is now time to kill Prince Tak'Salir (Level 74) (yes, he is the "Burning Prince").
He is in the center "arena" area of the zone, but he can also be pulled single, as with the Priests.
He hits for up to 2K and has a single target Lifetap DoT spell that he casts non-stop (normally on the tank).
Make sure this gets cured fast, with Remove Greater Curse!
Kill him! He will drop an item for the group to roll on.
.
5) NORTHERN DESERT OF RO: Head back to Queen Tak`Yaliz.
NOTE: You can gimp people in, but do so before you do this step.
Simply hail her for the win!
.
1) NORTHERN DESERT OF RO: Head back to Tak'Valnakor.
Hail him and follow along, or just try saying, "Visit her." to get this task,
.
2) Head back to Queen Tak`Yaliz.
Hail her and follow along (key phrase, "Willing").
She will give you a Crown of Tak'Yaliz (Lore, No Trade, Magic, Weight 2.0).
In fact, everyone can get one by using the key phrase, but the only person who needs it, is the person who will do the turn ins. It is important that the person who will be looting items gets this item (no one else actually needs it).
Say "Prepared" to be teleported.
.
3) RUINS OF TAKISH HIZ: MESSAGE TO THE PAST: This is an instanced zone.
You are looking for two (2) A Dusty Chest (Level 1).
They randomly spawn in any of the three stand-alone towers.
It is best to have a Feign Death type player find them, open them and then loot them.
You need to loot a Jewel Encrusted Wand (Lore, No Trade, Magic, Weight 2.0) and a Takish-Hiz Royal Scepter (Lore, No Trade, Magic, Weight 2.0) from them.
.
4) Now you are looking for High Priest Kelshar (Level 73).
He is located on one of the two towers in the far building.
He can be train-pulled as with the second task (see above).
Kill him and loot A Corrupted Priest Signet (Lore, No Trade, Magic, Weight 2.0).
.
5) THE ELDDAR FOREST: You are looking for Maryn Tak`Yaliz (Level 70).
He is located to the left (after you zone in), in the first building on the left, standing in the right corner.
NOTE: You cannot gimp anyone in on this mission.
Give him the four (4) items (see above), for the win!
A Dusty Chest (Level 1) should appear right there, with a loot item for the group to roll on.
.
1) NORTHERN DESERT OF RO: Head back to Queen Tak`Yaliz.
Hail her and follow along or just say, "What chime?" and then give her your Twisted Chime.
She will give you a Twisted Harmonic Chime (Lore, Magic, No Trade, Weight 0.0).
.
2) ARCSTONE, ISLE OF SPIRITS: Go back to Arch Mage Galsin.
Hail him and follow along, or just give him your Twisted Harmonic Chime.
He will give back to you the final version of Twisted Harmonic Chime (Lore, Magic, No Trade, Weight 0.0, Clickable Effect: Alter Plane: Theater of Blood).
You will also get a free Alternate Advancement Ability under your "Special" tier, called "Harmonic Dissonance."
It gives you a Hot Key ability that allows you to teleport to the Theater of Blood from anywhere, at anytime. Gratz!
