Note: This quest will NOT function properly if you have the world quest "Enemy of my Mnemis" in progress.

The crown just turned fully charged. I-... don't wanna let this power go... It's so fun.

If you have slained all Colossus, but still have to complete "Crown tested" to end the mission, just kill more mobs.

Description

Crown is unstable due to Sire's lingering influence from the medallions. A test run should solve. Socketed one of your medallions. Witness its power focused into a weapon of destruction. Perfect opportunity. Forsworn finished colossi construction. Destroy them. Bring the Forsworn the end they crave. Careful. Theotar informed me how powerful magic this is. The crown will hunger, must control it.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Crown of the HarvestersLevel 60
Power you seek to focus is volatile. Need the Eternal Forge's flames to get it done. Without the blessing of the flames, I fear it will overwhelm the wearer. Bring venthyr friend. His magic will prove useful. Need you to absorb impurities.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Citadel of LoyaltyLevel 60
The medallions, the source of magic the crown focuses, are still bent to the will of Denathrius. Forge cannot solve this. Citadel of Loyalty can. Taken over by the Forsworn in recent times. If we can get the crown to the temple, we can break the loyalty to the medallion's former master.
