A Leap of Heroism
Walkthrough
Leap from the highest point in Norrath on Gazer Isle, then defeat five solo named spirits in an Eidolon instance for the Hero Bracers timeline.
How to start
Examine the disused manacles and speak with the Eidolon of Heroism to begin.
- Gazer Isle leap point (Tenebrous Tangle)
Notes & prerequisites
- Adventure level 103+ required.
- Complete There Will Be Blood immediately before this quest.
- Heroic difficulty — solo ^ named spirits in the Eidolon instance.
- Dismount before leaping from Gazer Isle.
Steps
1. Leap from Gazer Isle
Leap from the highest point in Norrath. After trying many higher locations in Tenebrous Tangle, the confirmed working spot is on Gazer Isle.
- You must dismount before leaping.
- Leap point (dismount first)
Zone: Tenebrous Tangle · Gazer Isle
2. Defeat the five named spirits
You are sent to a solo-style instance. Click the Eidolon in the center and prepare to fight five solo ^ named mobs that spawn sequentially.
- You can bring a merc or a second player — CoV the other player into your instance to help.
- The second player will not receive an update if they are on the same step.
- Mercenaries do not have the usual ToV buff in this instance — bring a friend if heals are an issue.
- The final named has a small knockback. If knocked off the platform, you are zoned back to the center.
Zone: Eidolon instance
3. Speak with the Eidolon of Heroism
When finished fighting, speak to the Eidolon of Heroism. You are ported to an inn depending on alignment: The Jade Tiger's Den in Freeport (evil) or Fish's Alehouse and Inn in Qeynos (good).
- The Fandom page A_Leap_of_Heroism is a stub — full walkthrough details are on the Leap of Heroism page.
Zone: Freeport or Qeynos
Tips
- Dismount before jumping from 967, 462, 172 on Gazer Isle.
- The instance is solo-style — only the instance owner gets quest credit.
- Bring a heal-capable friend if your merc lacks ToV buffs.
- Knockback from the final named sends you back to the platform center, not to death.

Quest Text
The Eidolon of Heroism has bid me travel to the highest point of Norrath, where day meets twilight. Once I'm there, I am to leap from it, into the abyss...
I'm not sure how much I trust the Eidolon, but this is the task set before me.
Completion
I leapt from an island in the Realm of Twilight, and ended up in a strange place. The Eidolon of Heroism called it a place between life and death. There I fought the essences of heroism, and defeated all five. Soon after, I awoke in an inn. Whether that all really happened or not... I can't be sure.
