Step 4: Find the Lost Tomes
Requirements: One or Two groups
There are two hints for finding the two lost tomes. The first is the "Frightened Abyss". As it happens, Frightened Abyss is a synonym for the Timorous Deep. And the closest library across the Timorous Deep is the grand library of Charasis. And thats exactly where you have to go.
The tome you are looking for, the Book of Bindings and Incantations, is located in the east hallway of Charasis. In order to enter the zone, you will need to complete the Key of Charasis quest. Once inside, you will need to either find a way across the fake stairway to the east, or clear the zone and acquire the keys that lead you to the east side of the zone. Either way, you will find the tome sitting right on top of a table in the east hallway. You will need a group to acquire this, unless you are very daring and are able to pull this off solo. The Book of Bindings and Incantations respawns once every two hours.
The next tome is a bit more difficult, as it requires you travel to the depths of The Deep to the Thought Horror Overfiend. You do not have to kill the THO, but you do have to travel thru his room. As such, you will need a solid group or two to reach your destination. The Elder Thought Horrors are rather difficult; it's advised you have a powerful tank, enchanter or bard for crowd control, and a Cleric healing to deal with them. You will need to defeat the Elder Thought Horrors surrounding Grigor Rohja before you can engage him safely.
Grigor Rojha is a difficult mob for the underequipped. You will need one to two groups to defeat him. He hits for around 1,000, and has two spells associated with him: Nova Inferno, and Fiery Assault, both of which are interruptible by air pets (if the stun lands). He is also invisible, so you will need See Invisibility to find him. Grigor respawns once every 2 hours. Defeat him and you will receive the Codex of Ice and Ether.
Return these books back to Bantil. Upon returning one book, he says the following:
Bantil lo 'Tuv says 'Ahh great, thank you. There are some interesting notes in these books. I suspect soon we should be able to find who is responsible for the disappearance in the first place.
Once he has the second book, he will say the following:
Bantil Io`Tuv says 'Oh my. Oh this is most disturbing news. It appears that one of Magi'Kot's apprentices was responsible for the theft of these books. This may not be the end of the story. Magi'Kot had four apprentices. Jahson Aksot, Akksstaff, Walnan and myself. There are notes in some of these letters that no one but one of his apprentices could have known. Speak to the others please, but be discreet, I sense something much larger at work here, return to me with anything you find.'
At this point you need to track down Jahsohn Aksot in the West Commonlands, Akksstaff in Najena, and Walnan in Butcherblock Mountains. If you completed the Orb of Mastery quest, you already know where to find them.
