Walkthrough

Steps

Kill 15 vultaks. The ones around Hoo'Loh can be easily soloed.
Return to Hoo'Loh.
Kill the Vultak scroll-bearer, wandering around The Strifewing Camp . Fly directly above him and clear for the update.
- To get to him without a flier: travel north on the island and past the Strifewind Pond near the scavengers. Keeping the pond on your right, keep traveling north and looking at the wall on your right for a small entrance . Go in there and up a ramp and keep looking at the right wall for a climbable area. Climb up two levels of climbing wall. There are 2 spots at and . Within the general area here, you will find the scroll-bearer wandering.
- You will likely need a group to complete this section. The scroll-bearer is an undercon mob with a LARGE aggro range (you only need to go up to the first rock to have him come at you) who is tricky to find with several see-invis mobs enroute.
Return to Hoo'Loh.
Go to your city's mage academy and search for 'an ancient scroll'. If multiple people in your group need it, you shouldn't have to wait long for it to respawn （Approx 60 seconds）.
- The City of Freeport: Second Level of Academy of Arcane Science .
- Qeynos Capitol District: On the ground next to Indis Surion (via the yellow teleporter) in the Concordium Tower.
Return to Hoo'Loh.
Enter The Nest of the Great Egg in The Barren Sky.
Speak with Hoo'Loh, who will be in one of the two rooms to the right or left of the first chamber you enter.
- While in this area, you can pick up the quest Kicking the Bird out of the Nest, which requires the death of Chamberlain X'Haviz, who must be killed in order for Hoo'Loh to commune with the Great Egg. May as well get 2 birds with one stone!
- Remember to kill Switch or Nutty for a strange crystal egg, which is needed to activate the elevator leading the Great Egg.
Escort Hoo'Loh to the Great Egg:
- Safe way: Don't speak to Hoo'Loh (leave him where you find him) and clear the zone. This can be done most expeditiously by getting to and killing Chamberlain X'Haviz, since he consumes everything you haven't already killed in the zone when he becomes attackable). Then make sure the elevator has gone down (or send it down if it hasn't gone by itself), and go back for Hoo'Loh.
- Risky way: Hail Hoo'Loh right away upon entering the zone and have him follow you around the zone like a pet while you kill the mobs on your way to the Great Egg. He can and will attract aggro, so be sure to be in a position to defend him, or have him follow your caster and stay out of the way.
  - If Hoo'Loh is killed he may respawn back in the room where you first found him. If so, right-click on him to get him to follow you again. If he isn't there, you will have to wait until you can reset the zone.
- Hoo'Loh will follow the first group member to hail him but everyone in the group who has this quest will get the update as long as they click on the egg to "tell Hoo'Loh to commune with the the egg" in the final room.
Return to Hoo'Loh in the Barren Sky.
Gather various components from the following dungeons:
- Sanctum of the Scaleborn: A vial of flawless Scaleborn blood from a Scaleborn warrior
- Palace of the Awakened: A vial of flawless Bloodscale blood from a Bloodscale dreadknight
- The Halls of Fate: A vial of flawless Doomwing blood from a Doomwing Skarize centurion.
- The Halls of Fate: A perfect ooze specimen from a formless abomination spawn.
- The Halls of Fate: The blood of Sothis.
Return to Hoo'Loh in the Barren Sky.
Return to entrance of the Nest of the Great Egg and enter the unique instance, The Egg's Blessing.
- The objective of this instance is to sneak past all of the Vultak guards without alerting them. Fortunately, they have a very small aggro radius, assisted further by the use of Hoo'Loh's Strifewing disguise, which turns all the mobs grey however does not make them entirely immune to aggro. If at any point you move too close to a vultak, a message will flash on the screen informing you that you have failed and need to return to Hoo'Loh to pick up a new disguise.
1. Jump down to , and apply the disguise. Proceed through the instance as you would in the parent zone, The Nest of the Great Egg.
2. Go to the climbable wall at .
3. When you reach the top, you will notice that the two passages leading to the elevator are being patrolled by vultaks. To sneak past, wait for the vultak on the left-hand passage to move forward just enough so you can sneak into the room at .
4. Wait until the guard moves safely beyond the door, and then move to the elevator at , and ride it up.
5. Click on the egg to commune with it. It can be interacted with from a safe distance.
Return to Hoo'Loh for your reward.
