That stairway behind the wall has been glowing since i saw it earlier in the week. You must not have noticed it first time threw. It seems to be a hint for a quest line, used as a marker dealing with that ruby djinn urn. Unfortunatly it seems to be a dead-end.

Well it's not glowing any longer, but we also don't have favor, and it was glowing when we had favor. I was looking around and notice a mirror on a rock, that the sun bounces off. I'm following them now.

Lord Ra · Nov 04, 2006, 07:34 AM // 07:34

you very well may be onto something with it being linked to favor, both times i have been down there have been when we have had it.

SirErnieMacGloop · Nov 04, 2006, 07:44 AM // 07:44

no glowing, and we have favor.
also the circle design on the door look alot like the circles in the realm of torment

Well we won favor back, but it wasn't glowing again. I've noticed two sets of mirrors and doors, and the light from the mirrors, is just missing the middle of the doors. I'm not sure what those mirrors and what those door's are for, but I did beat that Djinn Overseer, seems it's for a quest, but I don't think they are tied together. I'm still exploring, and while it may be just scenery, I'm not sure because it was glowing, and it's not for me, any longer.

Well basically, it was glowing when I showed that picture, now it's not glowing at all. I'm not sure if it has to tie in a with an enemy that you kill, and then it starts glowing, or what's going on with it. But it's very odd, I didn't check the other door I found so I'm not sure if that was glowing or not, but there are also 2 mirrors for that door. Both seem to be part of the scenery, but i think there is or will be more to it than that.

Well I read whole thread and seen someone posted something about this already, but the glowing/non glowing parts are pretty odd. I'm pretty sure though it's just scenery.

In the Chamber of secrets( I believe thats the name!) theres the area for the staute of Kormir, which you can only get to once you beat the game. When you kneel her avatar appears. It dosen't do anything atm, but me and some other people were thinking that soon she might lead to a new area like fow or uw, or an elite mission..I dont know if anyone said anything about this or not (didn't feel like reading through 10 pages of stuff..) But It's just a spectulation. :P

Without intention to be rude - but we have been through the Kormir-Statue-Speculations (p)ages ago... >_<
Maybe you should read through all the pages?

Unfortunately I can't post anything productive as of yet, the master quests don't seem to lead anywhere - the titles aren't doing much either... but I got some places left to explore so... let's see where this is going!

once you complete the first quest you do not get the "Inscribed secret" as a reward in your inventory.That made me think could this be a secret way into an elite mission since the guy your helping Remebers stuff along the way. *In the first quest*
No clue about the second quest untill I find away to complete it DP is a killer.

Since I need a url for my Screens Shots I cant post them but I'll tell you the quest.

1: Fleshy Operation
2: Faded Memory
3:??
4:??

The loaction of the quest.

You leave from "Gate of Fear" and enter the zone "Domain of Pain"
after you die or fight past that first mob follow the wall all the way around (you will be on the right track if you keep seeing rez shrins) sooner or later you will run into a rez shrine with the quest guy standing thier.

If any of you know anything about theses quest and the "Inscribed secret" or completes all the quest he gives you. please post your findings here.

I`ve done this quests with my friend and there was nothing special.. the quests tell you a little bit about the lich and his connection to abaddon so it was fun to read the ghost storys

we searched the whole realm of torment for hints to the elite mission but nothing..

manitoba1073 · Nov 04, 2006, 01:22 PM // 13:22

you gus know if theres a quest to maybe reclaim this after we beat abbadon maybe this is where u get to go to the elite mission area from. once you restore it or something. for the love of god i have such a feeling this has something to do with it. like maybe reawaking the gods. yes its the explorable zone of it. im gonna finish chkin it out

Wheres a seige turtle or dwarven powder keg when you need one eh?

SilentVex · Nov 04, 2006, 03:59 PM // 15:59

We covered that door way back on page 5.

garethporlest18 · Nov 04, 2006, 04:04 PM // 16:04

Yeah I know but did you cover the fact that it glows on and off, that's what I was getting at.

Acehigh · Nov 04, 2006, 04:05 PM // 16:05

Well,just to let u know,i just got a file d/l in Mouth of Torment.Its first time ive been there since the update to remove halloween event,so thought id mention it,though no new npcs in the town yet

SilentVex · Nov 04, 2006, 04:16 PM // 16:16

The fact that it glows on and off is tied to a zone bug. It's hard to explain, but sometimes when you enter a zone the animated textures won't work. Waterfalls and rivers will be frozen, those light bridges with the flying souls will have the souls all stopped. Sometimes the zones work fine, sometimes they don't. I'm assuming the glow texture is animated, and would be stuck off when the zone loads this way.

mlandry · Nov 04, 2006, 05:07 PM // 17:07

I don't know if you guys have checked out this area already but I found this weird :

http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n...dry2/gw027.jpg

Looks like an underground entrance... if it's linked to a quest or mission though (since I'm not far in the game) just let me know

HR-Galaphile · Nov 04, 2006, 05:15 PM // 17:15

If i were Anet... I would tie the elite mission to the challenge missions. Have a top score on every challenge and a guy would pop out saying how awesome you are then offer to take you to the elite mission.

it would be impossible to find a group for the elite mission, there would be maybe 2 people there... you get top score somewhere, go to next, you get top score there but someone has gotten top score at the first one by then... and the high score would eventually be too high to beat (by the massive amount of people playing them to get to elite mission)

Yes, its linked to a primary quest.

No because it was glowing when we passed it after we killed the boss by it. Then we went for the heket, but never left the zone. When we came back it was off. So it went from on to off while we were there.
