Ancient Essence Item?!? - Guild Wars Forums

velvetbunny · May 30, 2005, 11:27 PM // 23:27

Ok, so i killed the "Ice BEast" in Mineral SPrings, behind the Statue of Lyssa, and it dropped the item "Ancient Essence". What the heck is this for? Is it just a quest i missed somewhere?

Isn't that what you use to infuse?

velvetbunny · May 30, 2005, 11:31 PM // 23:31

Damned if i know, I've been putting off doing the Infusion stuff cause it sounds boring.

velvetbunny · May 30, 2005, 11:37 PM // 23:37

Wow, ok, so it is for infusion... but now im real confused. If you infuse your armor in Mineral Springs, whats all this crazy Infusion Run nonsense i see in Iron Mines of Moladune about =P.

Caco-Cola · May 30, 2005, 11:48 PM // 23:48

Dunno, might just be a coincidence.

You do have to do the infusion runs (well you don't HAVE to but...) at moladune to get infused.

Well the seer was right behind the ICe BEast in Mineral SPrings and he infused a piece of armor for me, what else is there that has to be done in Iron Mines?

Whoa, really? That's crazy.

So you can get infused outside of the mission?

Learn something new every day.

Um, i guess so. I never did any of that infusion run stuff and know nothing about it, just ran out to Mineral Springs to capture Shield of Judgement. Is this really something new? Or are you being sarcastic and i am just stupid? =D

If you're not lying (and I have no reason to believe you are), then I guess you really don't have to do the infusion runs in the Iron Mines mission...
However, to be fully protected from the Mursaat, you're gonna have to get every piece of your armor infused.

Adaria · May 31, 2005, 01:39 AM // 01:39

Hmmm this is interesting information. Where is the springs place at? *needs to go hunt down a map -_-;*

I haven't done the infusion run for the sake that not enough of our guild has been on lately to take with us so we can all be on TS together and make it easier to move, thos Mursaat are evil without any protection against them whatsoever...

We made it... barely into the mission before being murdered by them with henchies...

Perhaps this will be a slightly easier method to do the infusion before we hit the mission again...

Caco-Cola · May 31, 2005, 02:49 AM // 02:49

The mission is doable with henchmen.

Running through and fighting through both. Been there done that.

It's north of Granite Citadel through Tasca's Demise. The Seer and the Ice BEast were in the upper right corner of Mineral Springs, past a cave with a Statue of Lyssa in it. I'll have to go back to infuse the rest of my armor so i can get a screenshot if anyone wants...

Dragothel · May 31, 2005, 03:26 AM // 03:26

what is infusiuon?

Tony Blair · May 31, 2005, 03:27 AM // 03:27

Found that by mistake too. Doing the infusion runs is 10x faster and easier though.
