Azzirhut
The Slashed Rocks
Quest: Pursuit. You will be time-lapsed to Azzirhut. This is a mountainous region with a waterfall cascading down a couple of hundred feet.
Bug: You can't leave via the OLM marker you came in on.

You will find another skeleton to the north:

There is a cave in the southwest, high in the mountain, but it is not accessible. The cave you want is in the north.

Bug: The Formorian denizens do not spawn unless you exit the cave and re-enter. There are so many areas with this problem...
Climb the north face to lofty heights and you will sort of wrap back around and find yourself atop the waterfall, with a concealed water temple showing below and a shaft of green light with a rune-scribed portal atop it.
Enter the water temple, slay the Spider Abomination and Spirit Naga inside, and then descend to the lower level.

Not sure what this place is about. There are triggers on the floor but they don't do anything at this point.
Exit the temple and jump off the rocks overhanging the waterfall in order to enter the portal.

Emkan Emqeds
The Spirit World
You will be greeted by El Jebel Tuwaiq. Completed Quest: Pursuit, 2,000 XP.

Speak with Banu Tamim. Completed Quest: Banu Tamim, 6,000 XP.
Quest: The Threat to Ruh Al'Ealem / Quest: Helam Al-Ekheyal. You need to get council from the Dreamkeeper, Wasa-ey Helam Al-Ekheyal. Try to exit the area and the giant ant will escort you to his abode.

Wasa-ey Helam Al-Ekheyal is found seated on the other side of the lagoon.
Return to El Jebel Tuwaiq: Completed Quest: Helam Al-Ekheyal, 3,000 XP.
Quest: Sister Sand. You need to get Wasa-ey Ermal Sheqyeqh onboard in order to confront the abominations.
Alermal Sheqyeqh
A sandstorm will be raging here. Simply consult your map and make your way to the towering sandstone pillar.
Again, return to El Jebel Tuwaiq: Completed Quest: Sister Sand, 3,000 XP. Next, go and have tea with the Weaver (2,000 XP). Yet again, return to El Jebel Tuwaiq. You will be time-lapsed to Ruh Al'Ealem.
Ruh Al'Ealem
Quest: Wall of the Abominations. A battle is being waged at the gates between the Wasa-ey and the Abominations, creatures of chaos and destruction. Since you can't even target the abominations in combat at the gates, you need to find a way to dig under the walls or climb over them.
Make your way west along the wall. Suddenly, you will see Sister Sand - the towering sandstone pillar - enter the fray at the gates in animated form. Then, Sabaa Sibaal will tunnel up from beneath you and order her ants to dig a tunnel under the walls for you. You are now inside. (Completed Quest: Wall of the Abominations, 1,000 XP.)
Confront and then take out the Beholder Abomination that eluded you back in Alemdynh Seq.
Rudely, you will be whisked away back to Emkan Emqeds one second after you slay it and the troll thingies. I don't need to tell you who to talk to, do I? (Completed Quest: The Threat to Ruh Al'Ealem, 5,000 XP.)
He will open a portal that will take you back to the Anauroch desert. You will reappear on the OLM at Azzihut - with no indication as to what to do next. Is the campaign over? I'm not sure.
Update: The Main Quest is Over.
Meanwhile, there are other areas on the OLM to explore, along with sidequests.
Sheik Aadil Banu Tamim dialogue is stuck in the past, telling me to seek out El Jebel Tuwaiq...
I also have three hung journal entries despite having satisfied the quest parameters:

Mouth of the Anauroch
The Throat
Above: The Throat opening up to See the Moon outpost of the Drow.
Located west of Azzirhut, inbetween the Heart of the Desert and Azzirhut, this is a Drow outpost named See the Moon. Led by Matron Illistyn, the Drow here worship Eilistraee not Lolth. Thus, they are not hostile.
Quest: Speak with the Drow Leader. It's a simple matter of following Matron Illistyn into her private quarters (250 XP).
Quest: Light Blindness. The matron believes Lolth spies or assassins have infiltrated the outpost. Family members have gone missing, too.
Quest: Corocotta, Quest: Obsidian Ores, Quest: Ghostly Myconids. You will receive these three quests once you have spoken with Zauviir, Chaulssin and Xunthun the merchant.
The entrance to the caverns is south of the lagoon.
Obsidian Caverns. Quest: See the Moon: Send Gorka Home. In the far east of the caverns you will locate a vein of Obsidian from which you can acquire Obsidian Ore x3.
Take out the Ghost Fungus Men in the myconid colony in the northeast. Be sure to loot the Ghost Myconid Flesh.
You will also encounter a Genasi on his last legs along with Gorka, an earth elemental.
Corpse of Genasi: Dust of Appearance, Dust of Disappearance.
The elemental will join your party temporarily. Tell it to stand its ground. Why? So that it doesn't get killed by the monsters coming up. Continue your descent through the caverns, taking out the Xorn that stand before you and the portal.
Gorka will automatically enter the portal when you reach it: Completed Quest: See the Moon: Send Gorka Home, 1,000 XP).
Bug: Even when I didn't encounter the Genasi or Gorka at all (they are easy to miss), the quest completed when I reached the portal.
Deliver the ore and myconid flesh to Xunthun, Completed Quest: Obsidian Ores, 1,000 XP, Completed Quest: Ghostly Myconids, 1,000 XP.
He will give you:
Myconid Cap Shield (Improved Saving Throws: Mind-affecting +4)
And forge you a weapon of your choosing out of the obsidian. I chose scimitar and received an Obsidian Edged Scimitar (Keen, slashing +2).
Bug: If you choose "pair of daggers" the items are not given. Also, the longsword has no mods.
River Canyon. The corocotta should spawn in the west. Slay them and skin them.
Across the river, in the east, you should find a trapdoor leading down to a spider burrow. In fact, you find yourself in a previously inaccessible area of the obsidian caves, in the southwest. Simply make your way through the cave, slaying Trapdoor Spiders en route to the dead-end, where you will locate the missing family members imprisoned by Drow Spies (Sickle +3, Drow Key).
Free the prisoners and then return to the Matron at the outpost: Completed Quest: Light Blindness, 2,000 XP, Brooch of the Eilistraee Faithful (inventory item, Bonus Hit Points +10, Charisma +1, Wisdom +1).
Finally, deliver the Corocotta Skins to Xunthun: Quest: Corocotta, 1,000 XP, Corocotta Armor (light armor, slashing 5/-).
The ruins are located in the tundra region to the north.
Quest: High Ice: Shirts and Skins. The dwarves on the approach are attempting to assemble a fighting force. Their leader will request that you hunt down some beasts. Check your map and head to the "beast sighting" markers. The beasts you're tracking are sneak attack-immune Mande Burung. Loot their Cold Weather Skins and deliver them to the dwarves (1,500 XP).
Quest: High Ice: Ruins of the High Ice. Next up, the dwarves need their ruins cleared. There are four ruins to explore and clear of frost giants and white wolves. Slaying them all is easier said than done.
There are dwarven scouts in the far northeast. You can tell them of the safe passage. Oversight: "placeholder" in journal / incomplete journal entry.
Report back to the dwarven leader, informing them that all four ruins are cleared and that the dwarves may begin their ceremony.
Don't forget to inquire about the scouts.
Completed Quest: Dwarven Scouts, 1,500 XP, Completed Quest: Ruins of High Ice, 1,500 XP.
The avatar of Clangeddin opens the door to the largest ruin in the High Ice. You now need to enter and assist the dwarves in reclaiming the clanhold interior.
Dwarf Corpse: Dwarf Handaxe (EB +2, Fire +1, vs. Giants +4).
Hunt down and slay the frost giant jarl who reveals its true identity: an abomination (1,500 XP).
Quest: The Shard of Shadow. Seemingly incapable of achieving anything on their own - no doubt including the wiping of their own arses - now the hapless dwarves request that you risk life and limb taking on the shard of shadow...
Ruined area. The author has left a testing / module development chest in here containing epic cheat items.
Take out the extremely powerful corrupted dwarves, being wary of their quivering palm.

Kamal here. Once you return to the OLM after defeating the bosses in Ruh Al'Ealem and speak with El Jebel Tuwaiq, the campaign is over. I put in the ability to continue so a player can finish up or explore anything they didn't during the game. It's been so long I don't know if the bugs you mentioned were only in the original release and were later addressed, or they remained in the last update, but I don't remember having monster spawning bugs.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kamal. Guide updated.
