SPOILERS: From The PTS...

There is a mission available on Onderon that feels reminiscent of certain ones on Dantooine. Below is the wild Jawa’s guide to where to find these bits! (Here there be spoiler-ish content)

The mission is Onderon Collector, and the premise of this mission is to find five items on Onderon for a collector (IIRC, the collector is on Nar Shaddaa?). These are all throwbacks to Onderon’s history, and I’m sitting here squealing in delight at the KOTOR II references.

There is a crazy long respawn time on them right now. One guy I ran into said he’d been camping Queen Talia’s necklace for over an hour, and rumour has it there’s an eight-hour cooldown on at least the necklace and the saber. Hopefully it won’t be THAT painful when it goes live...

Ahem. Anyway...

All five of the items are marked with convenient little red dots on the map above. Here’s the breakdown!

1. Kith Kark’s Saber

Probably the easiest one to find, just outside the gates of Iziz. Coordinates are 158, -471.

2. Queen Talia’s Necklace:

You’ll notice this tiny little gap in the cliffside here. 

Down the tunnel to find:

Coordinates: 336, -1126.

3. Tome of Freedon Nadd:

So this is inside the Ancient Sith Crypt south of Iziz. If you’re on Pub-side, you’re going to have to either sneak past or fight the Imp mobs guarding the entrances. At least on the PTS, there’s no mobs inside said crypt! [EDIT: On the live server, there are in fact mobs. They’re not hard, just average difficulty or weaker, and pesky.] It’s spooky as hell and SO cool. :D Halloween party in the crypts once this goes live, anyone? Coordinates are -393, -753.

4. Mandalorian Armour:

Right beside this chap! Pretty much right between the tree to the right of the image and a cliff. Coordinates: -333, -687

EDIT [24 October]: So they moved it in the live server. It’s now here! -304, -755.

5. King Ommin’s Exoskeleton:

If you’re Imp-side you’re going to have to deal with at least one Republic mob to get here. It’s in a crate underneath the wooden platform. Coordinates: -171, 467)

There’s also a datacron that I can hear nearby, but I’ll figure it out later. and by that I mean I’m going to make a go for it probably once I’ve posted this. >.>

So far I’ve picked up everything except for the saber and the necklace (uuuugh respawn times...). When I’ve collected those last two items, I’ll come back and let you know if it just completes right then or if there’s another step to the mission. :D

I really like playing on the PTS. I'm not sure why but you always have 5,500 crowns each time you log in and everything’s 1 crown (probably so people can easily test everything). I can do whatever I want. More importantly, there’s no one on so I don’t have to see random players running around. Finally some peace and quiet

Also made my Dragonborn, Kjul on the PTS lol... Ebony looks more like his canon equipment but honestly I really like the Frostcaster + Skinchanger + etc thing I threw together. 

I don’t remember which ability did the cool frost effect on the ebony one but I Love It. It suits him well.

Raymi on the Summerset PTS.. the amber plasm doesn’t mean anything I was just messing around because I Can

The only quest I’ve done in Summerset is one where you help an Orc challenge Asshole McRacistelf to a duel... Which, I think, is pretty in line with how Raymi actually is. She and Roguzog would get along swimmingly.

*Logs into the PTS* Someone: "oh I was just wondering if there was anyone else online—" *Fast travels away as quickly as humanely possible*

[clannfearrunt]

Required things for playing on the ESO PTS, apparently: -make Raymi -give her the horned brow plate -refuse to use any weapons until like level 4 -Give her a Good Outfit -obtain a house and place a giant pile of soul gems with random objects lodged within, with the Shivering Cheese thrown in as a light source -not do anything useful

[clannfearrunt]

PTS Raymi’s house is just Dark. It’s a feature. Actually her Oblivion house was also dark as hell I guess that’s just how it is always

I did add a nice flower.... roof... thing to the yard though, which was nice :>

[clannfearrunt]

So this is ESO Raymi and her hell pile. I moved it to her own space 

Sorry it’s dark, that’s just how it is
