yes these quests are indeed classic bc the first quest to initiate the series is the bone chip quest in Felwithe which has always been there....people just never figured them out until later since alot of people did not venture into Lesserfay besides running tru

Except they're not. I was a wood elf in classic on live, and pre-Kunark there were no ghasts in there. We hunted in there all the time (this was before Kunark tainted brownies were added). Illia's in fact has the quote below from 2001(!)...

I was hunting in lFay waiting for it to be day time so I could go camo into the castle in MM when I saw a new mob on track. it was called a rancorous ghast, or something like that. it was green to me at 47, and I killed it in like 5 shots or something, and it dropped an item, a Putrescent Heart. Magic Item. No drop. anyone know what this is for?
I'm aware the skeleton quests were in there at classic, but the final quest that rewarded the necklace was a later addition. Again no concrete evidence (i.e. patch notes etc), but I do remember how excited I was when they added the continuation of the quest chain, and going back on my higher level druid at the time to get it after it was added.


(edit: to clarify, I don't care one way or another if it stays in on this server...but I know this was not in at release. )

Heres the thing, whether it was there at the original release or there in kunark is pretty irevelant at this point since the quests ARE in our emulator now and you can obtain one of the necklaces. So they either should remove the quests as they currently are and implement them in their entirety at some point or just fix what they have started since nothing that is rewarded is over powering. The time line issue isnt that big of deal since we are basically talking about a couple months dif.

Could a dev comment on this particular quest so we dont discuss blindly?

I would so love to see this in p99. This was one of my favorite items in classic eq for my druid, even at higher levels it can be a life saver. I collected a bunch of clicky items as a druid, and this was by far one of my most used (second maybe to my elder spiritist vambraces). These babies held a last line of defence in a lot of situations. Coupled with the elder spiritist vambraces and the epic, they were a pretty nasty combo. A mana free root and two mana free dots. They made it possible to root/rot a LOT easier, I remember many-a-hour farming elysians in umbral plains with these.

That, as aside from my epic quest, it's one of the quests I actually remember doing and working at, and it was definately a nice item to show off. I would love to see this item implimented on our shard in the future.

I think folks are kinda missing the point on these Symbol quests being around. The first one released was the Dark Elf Necklace: Right click clinging darkness (rawr!). It was released around the same time as Paineel came out if memory serves correct (I did research, but that was over a year ago...). Anywho, since it was in that early, and we went live with Paineel open I stuck them in. Now, The big thing was that they came out in stages (And some were never completed, Brell!), couple here, couple there, blah blah blah. I stuck all of them in at the same time.

So, overall, some are classic, some aren't classic. They became classic by proxy due to the concept beating Paineel's release. That and picking and choosing what got included when these quests weren't part of patch notes was a HUGE pain.

I'll re-read this thread on my off, see what I can do to get them rolling like their supposed too.

Well if it wasn't classic, then it wasn't classic. What about the other initiate/disciple/warden quests for other deities? Are THEY classic? And if not, are they in-game currently?

Way to completely miss the point of his post.
