Act 3

2006-09-16T15:28:17Z

Skivverus: /* The Blade of the Old Religion */

=The Golden Bird=
:Objective
::Recover the Golden Bird

:General Notes
::Any of the unique monsters in Act III can drop this item. Be careful, though, if you end up killing one of the flying ones over water - it may get 'dropped,' but you'll never see it because it got dropped in the water, where it can't be dropped. It's a small bug. You'll not be able to find another one in the same game, so make a new one if you want it right then and there. Only one of these quest rewards are allowed per character per difficulty.

:Quest Reward
::+20 HP (via potion)

=The Blade of the Old Religion=
:Objective
::Recover the Gidbinn.

:General Notes
::There's a clickable pyre somewhere in the Flayer Jungle, called "The Gidbinn." You'll need to activate it to summon a Unique Flayer, who will drop the blade when you kill him. The pyre generally appears close to the Flayer Dungeon, which hides Khalim's Brain (necessary for Khalim's Will).

:Quest Reward
::A rare or magic ring from Ormus. Also, if you do not have a hireling already, Asheara will give you a mercenary for free.

=Khalim's Will=
:Objective
::Find the body parts and create from them Khalim's Will.

:General Notes
::This quest spans the entire Act. The Eye can be found in the Spider Cavern, located in the Spider Forest; the Brain can be found in the third floor Flayer Dungeon, in the Flayer Jungle; the Heart can be found on the second level of the Sewers, which has entrances spread througout the three Bazaars. The Flail can be found by defeating the Council in the Travincal. One of the members drops it when they die.

:Quest Reward
::Khalim's Will. Use Khalim's Will to smash the Compelling Orb.

=Lam Esen's Tome=
:Objective
::Find the Black Book, located in one of the 6 temples located throughout Kurast, and return it to Alkor.

:General Notes
::The Black Book is found in the Ruined Temple in the Kurast Bazaar. It is guarded by Battlemaid Sarina, a unique Flesh Hunter, who spawns with a very large pack. The 6 temples in Kurast are also the only location where a monster immune to the Paladin's Blessed Hammer skill can spawn.

:Quest Reward
::5 Attribute Points

=The Blackened Temple=
:Objective
::Kill the Council and smash the Compelling Orb.

:General Notes
::The Council are found right beside the Orb - the Orb can be smashed by using Khalim's Will. The Council numbers a fair many and uses elemental attacks for support in the form of Hydras.

:Quest Reward
::Entrance to the Durance of Hate.

=The Guardian=
:Objective
::Kill Mephisto.

:General Notes
::Mephisto can be found on the third level of the Durance of Hate. He has cold attacks, so be careful if you have to go toe-to-toe with him.

:Quest Reward
::Quest drop if the player landing the killing blow needs the quest. Opens a portal to Act IV.

Act 2

2006-09-16T15:23:21Z

Skivverus: /* The Arcane Sanctuary */

= Radament's Lair =
:Objective
::Find and eliminate Radament.

:General Notes
::Radament can be found on the third level of the Sewers. There are many Burning Archers on the way (whose arrows deal fire damage), so be prepared. Radament himself also surrounds himself with a horde of undead, which he will revive.

:Quest Reward
::A [[Book of Skill]] is dropped by Radament upon death, equal to the amount of players in the game who have not completed the quest.

= The Horadric Staff =
:Objective
::Recreate the Horadric Staff.

:General Notes
::To create the staff, you need the parts, and to put the parts together, you need the [[Horadric Cube]]. The Horadric Staff can be found on the second level of the Maggot Lair, while the [[Viper Amulet]] can be acquired from the [[Viper Temple]]. The [[Horadric Cube]] itself can be found on the third level of the Halls of the Dead.

:Quest Reward
::The [[Horadric Staff]] which you need to open Duriel's lair in The Seven Tombs quest.

= Tainted Sun =
:Objective
::Destroy the Altar at the bottom of the Viper Temple

:General Notes
::The Viper Temple can be reached after progressing through the Lost City. One side effect from initiating this quest is that it will always be night time in Act II as long as the Altar has not yet been kicked. After finding the Altar, a simple left-click completes the quest.

:Quest Reward
::The [[Viper Amulet]]

= The Arcane Sanctuary =
:Objective
::To find Horazon's Journal.

:General Notes
::You may not enter the palace until you talk to Drognan after completing the [[Tainted Sun]] quest. In the center of the third level is a portal which must be activated. After activation, enter the portal to the Arcane Sanctuary. Horazon's Journal is located at the end of one of the four branches of the Sanctuary, guarded by the Summoner, a Vizjerei mage of questionable sanity who attacks you with Fire Wall, Fire Ball, Frost Nova, and a particularly vicious Glacial Spike. You can ignore the Summoner and simply read the journal to complete the quest, but due to the Summoner's lack of hit points and high damage it is generally preferable to dispose of him first.

:Quest Reward
::A portal to the Canyon of the Magi, which contains the Tomb of Tal Rasha. For players who have not completed the Seven Tombs quest, this will provide information on which tomb is the 'real' one.

= The Summoner =
:Objective
::Find the false Summoner and kill him.

:General Notes
::The Archane Sanctuary consists of four legs. The false Summoner is at the end of one of them, but which one?

:Quest Reward
::Access to the [[The Seven Tombs]] and the identity of the correct tomb.

= The Seven Tombs =
:Objective
::Kill Duriel.

:General Notes
::Duriel can be found in one of the seven tombs. Each tomb is represented by a unique symbol, whose locations are not random and are the same for each game. The correct sign, and therefore the correct tomb in which to look for Duriel, will be shown in your Quest Log. You must have the Horadric Staff to open the tomb for the first time.

:Quest Reward
::Quest drop if a player needing the quest kills Duriel and access to Act III.

==About the Game (non-gameplay)==

Diablo 2 is the sequal to the highly popular [[Diablo 1]] (1996). Many players consider it to be a "hack and slash" styled role playing game (RPG).

[[Blizzard North]] released Diablo 2 version 1.0 on <date>. Blizzard released the Lord of Destruction expansion pack with version 1.07 on <date>. In addition to adding a significant amount of content with the expansion pack, Blizzard also made several game altering patches (notably 1.09 and 1.10) which added items, changed game balance, modified game mechanics, and brought a new feel with these changes. All of these updates are under their free <Battle.net> online gaming service. The current game version is 1.11(b?). Unless mentioned otherwise, all information in the Daiblo 2 wiki is for the most recent patch of Diablo 2, Lord of Destruction (D2 LOD).
