So you got this far and you're probably wondering "what next?"

When I got here, the quests weren't filled in, so here is what happens:

1) You've already done the prequests and started on your keys. Key drop is low as stated above. 5% sounds right.

2) All ethereals drop them, but the ones around mana forge ultris seem to have the best drop rate.

3) They are SELLABLE. Do not make these cheap as they are a pain in the ass, as below...

4) You hand in your first key and get your follow up. 5 Keys.

5) Hand in 5 keys, and go to Bashir's Landing in BEM (North)

6) Open Stasis Chamber Alpha and fight an 80,000 hp Gronn. Does a knockback attack (probably aggro wiping, but i dont know...) and a daze attack, but hey Blizzard: If you're going to make a quest say "5 man" dont make the mob fearable. Solo'd the mob with a mage friend taking out repops. 8 minute fight :P

7) Hand in the Gronn's drop and take the next quest. It took several re-reads of the quest, but essentially...

Get 5 Keys
Hand in 5 keys for 1 bashir's landing prison key
Open prison and beat up mob
Mob has a CHANCE to drop Mark of the Nexus-King
Enjoy :P

8) Hand in mark for key to open stasis chamber in heroic mana tombs. I think this will iether be a new room with new boss and a whole lot of treasure. Enjoy phat loots.

I highly recommend farming Zaxxis Stalker and Raider at The Heap, 30,77.

It's easier to do an AoE farm there and they also drop Zaxxis Insignia =)

After less than 45 minutes I got 50 Zaxxis Insignias and 6 Ethereum Prison Keys.

Description

I have cracked the code! Each tag is broken up into several segments. The front side of the tag is always the same and states: "A Thousand Worlds..." I am unsure as to the meaning of this phrase but it sounds insidious. On the back side of the tag are the vital statistics. The first set of runes indicates location and the second indicates prisoner type. Furthermore, it would seem that the keys can be combined to form a special key that accesses another prison type. Now I just need more keys...
