<p>Good day fellow Necromancers, I am on the second to last step of my fabled weapon quest. The part where I harvest the ORB in front of Venrils lair deep down in SEB.</p><p>I read a post on Allakhazam from March saying this step was broken for some people but not all see below. I just wondered if anyone knows is this true? Does it still happen etc?</p><p>Input greatly appreciated and many thanks in advance</p><p><b>QUOTED FROM ALLAKHAZAM</b> </p><p><b>"OK, this step is more or less broken. Quite a few people, including myself, have had to bring a GM in to advance this step. But others have had no problems. You need to harvest the orb in front of the named at the entrance to Venril Sathir's lair. Only those with the quest can see the orb. The named does not have to be up to harvest the orb. You will most likely need to clear the praetorians and maybe the named to get to the orb unless a passing raid just cleared them. If the quest is broken for you, you will see the message "Nothing found" and told that it slips through your fingers. I tried collecting it nonstop for about 5 minutes - from the time we cleared the mobs until they repopped. We tried twice. If you can't harvest it you will have to park yourself in the safe corner just to the side of the door just past the chemistry table and /petition a GM. I had to wait almost 24 hours. I strongly suggest being online as much as possible during that time so that they can find you. If you're not online and they send you an email because they can't find you, you may have to petition again because they need to advance it manually and they like you to be there. After you harvest the orb (or get the GM to advance it), head to the Mage tower in N Freeport for the final fight! "</b></p>
