Sealed Notes

- Receive Sealed Documents
- Turn in Sealed Documents to Jeb Lumsead

Gold Filigree
- Kill an enticing Potameid in Natimbi (not trackable) (soloable by a good 60+ chanter or a decent 65+ chanter)
- Loot Sullied Gold Filligree
- Take Sullied Gold Filligree to Anthone Chapin in Halls of Honor, NE basement (not trackable)
- Receive Purified Gold Filligree

First Piece of the Staff
- get Taste of Enticement (ground spawn) from deep inside Castle Mistmore
- Charm Advisor Smartmane on the 7th floor of Tower of Frozen Shadows (This mobs is very resistant and hits hard. bring a group who can live for a bit while you get it charmed. Will need keys up Tesserina's floor or the master key or someone who has. Keys will work for whole group)
- Turn in Taste of Enticement and receive First Piece of Staff

Second Piece of Staff
- Kill yrendan scarab deep in the caves of Plane of Justice (very rare spawn) (Scarab is in with two others. Easy enough that a decent 60+ chanter can solo it but would recommend bringing a healer or a backup of some kind. MObs along the way hit for 350-400 and run. You need a snare person to help you get down. Some mobs do see thru invis)
- Loot second piece of staff

Third Piece of Staff
- Kill any named in a Vxed trial. Note you do NOT need to win a trial. Bring a tracker. Get trial and go in. If no named up, simply quit mission and get another one. There is a named or two that can be spawned, but are pretty deep in. Much easier to simply get a mission with one already spawned as two do randomly spawn near entrance. All named hit for 1000+ but most are doable by a decent 70+ group. All named drop the chanter piece every time.
- Loot Third Piece of Staff

Fourth Piece of Staff
- Kill all sentries of Kaavi
- Kill war Caller Kaavi (can do this with one strong group or two decent groups)
- Loot Fourth Piece of Staff

Ornate Staff Topper

- make Glowing concoction by combining glow lichen (foraged), Abyssmal Moonwater, Vial of Purified Mana and Essence of Sunlight
- make Incandescent Oil by combining glowing concoction, dragon egg oil, prisymatic dye and glimmering oil
This DOES have a trivial so you CAN fail! Be sure your brewing skill is at least 150 and have geerlock. Highly suggest maxing out brewing to 200 before atempting so you do not have to get greasy again.

All-Seeing Eye
- Kill All-Seeing Eye in Plane of Mischief. Hard raid mob. Has 1 million HPs and AOE's.
- Loot the All seeing Eye

Completion
- Hit combine on chest
- Turn combined chest into Jeb Lumsead in Burning Woods

I went around collecting cryptic pages, I can confirm the following are in game:
Ocean of Tears
Najena
Cazic Thule
Howling Stones
Crystal Caverns
Fungus Grove
Crypt of Nadox
Skyshrine

I"m fairly certain Sebilis and Velketor's Lab are not spawning as I spent a few hours at each camp and it never appeared.

I have never seen enticing potameid up in natimbi.

3rd piece of the staff currently drops from named in Vxed.
Enticing Fruit spawns in mistmoore, I have not gone to ToFS to see if it can be turned in.

The 2.0 raid fights will require around 3 groups. Withering Murkglider isn't particularly hard to kill but he spawns adds frequently that are difficult to mez without tash and they will overrun you if you don't have at least 2 enchanters and good dps on the boss. Cipheron in WoS has AE FD coupled with his 2k melee hits and rampage means that people are going to die as the rampage list shifts around from the feigns turning this into a burn fight.
