Abyss

Welcome to the most time consuming tier in EZServer with the exception of T10.

Although T5 (i.e. “Illsalin” or “The Abyss”) will take an enormous amount of time to complete, it can also be very fun. To progress through this zone, **begin by hailing the “Greetings” NPC on every character**. This will give you the quest in which you must kill 100 different bosses, which are each spawned in a different way depending on the boss. Kill all the corals to spawn the boss “White” who drops your 4.5 Epic. Once you finish the 100-kill quest, you will receive your 5.0 Epic.

After you have created your 5.0 epic and all of your visible armor pieces, you can hail the Level Up Wench to be flagged for Anguish.

Progression

• Kill all Corals (green, yellow, red, blue) to spawn White
• Kill White to loot “Completed Epic 4.5”
• Complete 100-kill quest and hail quest NPC in Illsalin to receive “Completed Epic 5.0”
• Collect all visible armor pieces
• Hail Level Up Wench to be flagged for Anguish

Trigger Map Code

Do the following to add trigger locations to your map. Trust me, you want to do this.

1. Go to your map folder under your EverQuest directory. 2. Open “Illsalin_3.txt” 3. Replace what is in the file (if there is anything) with the below text EXACTLY:

• • NOTE**: Triggered bosses do **not** spawn where you kill the trigger mob; they will spawn elsewhere in the zone. See the **Tips** section below for important information on making the location of spawned bosses easier to find.

100 Boss List

Below is a table of the 100 bosses, which armor pieces are dropped, and how to spawn them.
The bosses are spawned according to 4 different methods:
KILL ALL:

• You must kill all of the specified type of NPC, and the boss will randomly spawn in the zone
  

RANDOM:

• Killing ANY of the type of the specified type of NPC has a rare chance to spawn the boss randomly in the zone
  

TIMED:

• Every 30 minutes, a random boss from the "timed" category of bosses will spawn in the zone. You do not have to kill anything for this to happen
  

Parking 1 toon in an instance to watch for Timed spawns will likely result in going linkdead after 15-20 minutes. Not all people experience this, although the vast majority do. Park 2 toons per instance at least when camping Timed spawns.
TRIGGER:

• Make sure you have added the trigger text to your map file, as shown in the section above
• Killing the one specific trigger mob of the type of NPC has a chance to start a CHAIN that will always spawn one of two bosses.
• The chain will spawn 2 successive "trash" NPCs, and after killing them will always spawn one of two specified bosses.
• Use "/highlight npc" to see where the chain NPC spawns if you do not use the /highlight npc command before you begin killing the trigger mobs, there is no way you will know if/where one of the successive trash spawns has popped. Using /highlight npc will change all of the current NPC's to a different color, any new NPC that spawns, will show up in the original NPC color for your map.

Tips

• It might help to keep track of which bosses and loots you have, and which ones you still need. Here is a downloadable printable “100 Boss Checklist”: T5 Excel Checklist
• This is the first tier where it is almost essential that you have access to a Free Waypoint (Reward Item). The ability to repop this zone will make the last ~10 bosses much easier and faster.
• Use `/stick uw` instead of just `/stick` to make underwater following (slightly) better.
• Upon zoning into the Abyss, it is a good idea to use `/highlight NPC` — this allows new spawns (bosses or chains) to appear in a different color, so that they are easier to spot.
• If you are only after a specific boss, you may want to use `/mapshow nameofnpc` or `/maphide nameofnpc` to filter which NPCs you see.
• If the last NPC of a “Kill All” boss is a trigger NPC, it will **not** spawn the “Kill All” boss.
• The accessories that drop here can be upgraded in Anguish, so they are worth getting on each character as well as the visible armor.

Loot

• Essence of The Abyss
• T5 Epic Weapon Skins
• Stone of Heroic Resistance V
• Abyss Vellum
• War Bear Saddle
• Kizziebelle’s Mythical Unicorn
