Runes of Magic US / AU

I believe every single one is important. Not only for the questline but to your toon too, a few set of quest almost always lead to a title that automatically give's you extra 5HP for each one. CoO is good, but I would leave it for your second, perhaps your third class.

I wouldn't suggest skipping most quests. You'll find yourself short on exp after a while, and dailies are not going to keep leveling you every day forever.

Most Xaviera quests give more exp than the level 50+ zone Weeping Coast, so it would be unwise to skip them altogether. 50-55 is already a slow hurdle.

the toni/morrick questlines and instance attunement questlines for any instances you want to get into that require attunement, ie dl/zs.

edit: unless you want to go to cyclops liar, treasure trove, heart of the ocean, zurhidion stronghold, or hall of the demon lord you dont really have to do any questlines at all. I dont understand why you would not want to quest, but you really dont have to.

What is instance attunement?

What is instance attunement?

Instance attunement is basically where you have to do a quest or line of chain quests to be "attuned" to enter an instance. Without doing the quests, you simply cannot enter the instance portal.

This way of doing things is common in the earlier instances- it's something that Runewaker hasn't really done in Chapter 3, 4 or 5.

A lot of the level 50 and all of the 55 instances require an attunement chain. Let me see, here's my off the top of my head list (feel free to correct me Forum Folks):

Ice Dwarf Kingdom (level 35 and 50)
Cyclops Lair (50)
Treasure Trove (50)
The Origin (55)
Heart of the Ocean (55)
Hall of the Demon Lord and Zurhidon Stronghold (55- you get attuned for both on the same questline)
Cave of the Water Dragon (55)

Those ones have pretty long questlines that need to be completed before entry.

Some other instances require less work, but still have prerequisites you have to complete before you can access them.

The Windmill Basement (level 15)- need to get a Gloomy Vapor Stone from a Gulo in the Goblin Mines and talk to Uncle Kaga.
Arcane Chamber of Sathkur (level 15)- you can enter this instance anytime, but only after doing the attunement can you get access to the bosses room.
Mystic Altar (40)- iirc, does not require attunement, but you have to click on a series of statues to enter and progress inside.
Dungeon of Dalanis (57) don't need attunement, but doing a short questline enables you to transport easily to the instance.
Raksha Temple (60) do not need attunement, but you can't access the area by running to it without doing the questline.

So, ideally, you really want to do each and every quest available in game. It will make your instance life considerably easier, and as Camagic mentioned, each title you get adds 5hp. You also really need all that experience.

Remember that you have at least two classes that need to be doing these quests, and three if you choose to utilize the three class system.

Do them at your own pace, and if you run into trouble, the Runesdatabase is probably your best resource for quest help.

You asked for corrections, so here I am.

First, of the four level 50 instances, Kalin Shrine is the only one with no pre-quests.

Not all of the level 55 instances require attunement - Hall of Survivors, Origin & Lair of the Demon Dragon can be entered at any time by any character of any level. Just don't be annoyed if you die at level 17 in those...

Hall of the Demon Lord and Zurhidon Stronghold don't actually need any quests completed to enter, but you do need to loot Sharleedah & right-click the Document he drops and accepting the quest. You must then also right-click all the stuff that explodes out of the document.

Mystic Altar (40)- iirc, does not require attunement, but you have to click on a series of statues to enter and progress inside.

Mystic Altar can be entered at any level provided someone else starts the Device at the bottom of Snowhorn. To be able to start the device yourself, you will need to complete the pre-quests.
You do not need to click on any statues to get inside, but one of the quests from inside the instance does require you to click on one statue.

Can I have some sherbet now, please?

EDIT:
Check my Guide: Instance Attunement / Pre-Quests

Thanks Inferiority!

That link was what this thread needed. You deserve a sherbet and a cookie.

As for DL/ZS, I never had any luck getting anyone inside it with just Sharleedah's document, I don't know if perhaps I wasn't wiggling my nose right.

Hiya, as for the ZS/DL attunement, after getting the document, the only way I have ever been able to get anyone in is to go to speak to Apat at the main camp, then off to see Diloss, both are part of the quest line, at which point you can ride the Anklar up to Zuridian Stronghold, see the hidden scout for a port to the audience hall, which takes you to the ZS enterance. I have never gotten it to work for any of my guildies otherwise? There may be other ways of getting it to work but I havent had any luck with them.

For DS/ZS, you will get 2 items after looting the document from Sharleedah. Right click on both of them & turn in the quest at Diloss.

For RT, you need to do some quests to enter else you need to be on someone's 2-seater mount to enter cos the guard outside will stop you.

Right-click the document, accept the quest & then right click the two items that explode out of the document. Your toon will now be able to enter ZS & DL - no trip to Diloss or Apat required, unless you want to pick up the quests for completion inside the inni. I think it's the map that triggers the access but my last toon is only level 30 so I cannot test that for a while.

Technically, RT has no pre-quests, but being able to enter Angren does.

The trigger quest is Lijinda's Envoy.

Thanks for the info. I was wondering what is in the last room of the Arcane Chamber of Sathkur. I opened up the quest to get in there, but wasn't sure if it would be a good idea to go in there. What boss is in there and would my level 52 m/p be able to solo it?

acos is a lvl 15ish instance. I do believe a lvl 52 m/p can solo it, even if they are naked and have all lvl 1 skills. There is a small strategy to spawn the boss. The torches lit in a certain order, then you lite them. This happens 3 times, I think, correctly to spawn the boss. Kill him and the exit portal appears.

We, as a guild, have tried numerous times to get folks attuned to ZS/HoDL by just using the documents and have never been able to get them in without them going through the Apat/Diloss quests. Perhaps there was a time where this worked?

As far as I know, it's impossible to get in with just the Documents - you must right-clcik the stuff that comes out of the documents too.

I have a little evel 60ish toon on Osha that hasn't been attuned to ZS/DL yet & if anyone can assist with the killing of Sharleedah, I will happily test this to see if anything has changed.

I would recommend doing all quests and all quests to get attuned to all instances for 3 major reason. First is the titles from completing quest chains because they give 5hp per title, most quests add to the titles. And second is because all last bosses in instances give a title for killing them and collecting their spirit orbs, which also gives 5hp per title. Third is the fact most bosses in most instances drop mob cards which add decent stats for free. If the ! doesn't show up on your map for low level quests then you need to go into the map settings and uncheck the hide low level quests box.

i got my friend keyed for ZS/DL yesterday...and all we did was kill shar, get document, get the 2 other documents, run into ZS< then he successfully did all of DL except for final boss(u need dragon heart for that)

edit...i didn't realise this was so old lol...forgot i had searched something instead of going to "new posts"

Quoted from "Cike;573970"

except for final boss(u need dragon heart for that)

Unless it has been changed you only need the dragon heart if you want to enter last boss room without dying. Agro mobs near barrier and let yourself die near the barrier. Get ressed inside. Deliberatley dying there gets old after awhile. Preferable to do Gestero.
