Guide to Attuning to the Core in Nusibe Necropolis

submitted by lifebane on Nov 4th, 2007

Greetings fellow defilers of the not so living anymore. Have you been frequenting Nusibe Necropolis? Chasing down the ever elusive Skin of the Xakrin perhaps? Well then, perhaps you might save yourself some of the looooong path of carnage it takes to get down to the Godking by taking the shortcut directly to the Core from outside of the Necropolis. Sounds groovy no? Okay then, here is what you need to do!!

Head down to Lord Neferset's room (that being the floating skull in the sparkly light show within Nusibe) Once you are there, check the ground just north of Lord Neferset over by the ramp, you are looking for a skeleton on the ground. You will find a quest starter item called "Dried Moldy Note". Right clicking the note will produce the following quest text and start you on your way:

Penetrating The Core

Description:
It appears to be a journal entry. It reads, "After deciphering the glyphs on the pillar at the entrance, I have decided to venture into the City of the Dead. I go alone, as Nekah and Forlen have both abandoned me and this journey. Perhaps they just quit, or fled out of fear?"

"Either way, I am not afraid. I must find the blade and hilt from the warrior halls. Surely one of those undead will have them. When the two pieces combine together, I will stab the Blade of Hekketat into the core...and pray."

Objectives

Find the blade and the hilt from the dead in the warrior halls. Somehow combine them to create the Blade of Hekketat. Find the core, and stab the blade into it.

* Blade of Hekketat Created
* Stab Blade Into The Core

On to the Warrior Halls:

From Neferset's room, heading northwest will lead you in the direction you want to go. On the way down the stairs you will get the Hall of the Warrior or whatever text announcing you have arrived. Now kill and kill and kill untl you find the blade and the hilt.

and

Once you have both parts, click on one and they will combine themselves into the new and improved Blade of Hekketat. Now return to Neferset's room and head to the Core!

To the Core:

From Neferset's room, head west, once past the stairs take the first right. Continue west, and note, the mobs in that room are not aggressive but will assist any mob that you may fight in the room, aka.. DO NOT fight in that room! Go west down the stairs, Ta-da, the core of Hekketat! The obelisk thingy in the middle is the core. Stab the core with your spiffy new Blade of Hekketat by clicking on the obelisk... it will psyche you out.. be prepared hehe. sometimes it teleports you out, sometimes it doesn't if reports can be believed. At the very least expect to read this Quest text:

WTF! yes I know... a bit confusing. Why did I just do all this running around?!

Well the answer is quite simple, from now on instead of fighting your way through all of those mobs, you can simply use the mini obelisk at the entrance of Nusibe (just past the skele horse guardians outside) and you will be instantly teleported down to the core where you had stabbed the blade into. If you happen to be a summoning class people will love you long time for this since you can teleport down and summon the rest of the group past that unnecessary killing spree.

Congrats! You are officially attuned to the core... that just sounds so World of Warcraft doesn't it?!?
