The Twilight Forge (story arc)

The Twilight Forge raid is the third raid adventure created for DDO. To be eligible for this raid, you need to have completed several pre-quests.

Gain Access to The Foothold

 * Hiding in Plain Sight

To gain access to the the Foothold you must have completed the first Titan pre-quest of Hiding in Plain Sight (often referred as "HIPS"). It is possible to get to the Foothold without completing this quest if you can get a friendly mage to teleport you there.

The Foothold
You need to speak to Karn Cold Trail to get the Twilight Forge quest. Before he will give it to you you will have to buy access to the Restless Isles (although you can run the other pre-quests before doing this). He will charge you 10K gp for the privilege, a good negotiation skill (intimidate, diplomacy or bluff) can reduce this to 2K gp. You need to pay this fee only once.

Karn will give you quest objectives of locating a Sigil of Dal-Quor. One part of each is an end reward for both Ghola Fan and Shrieking Mines.

Explore Restless Isles
You must locate each quest giver for Ghola Fan and Shrieking Mines first, these articles may help.

Obtain Sigil of Dal-Quor

 * Bring Me the Head of Ghola Fan
 * Slavers of the Shrieking Mines

Once these quests have been completed, you should have in your possession both pieces of the Sigil of Dal-Quor (Broken Sigil and Shattered Sigil), now you can speak to Ostler Caulstone in the Foothold to repair it. You need both parts in your inventory at this point. After it gets repaired you should have a completed Sigil of Dal-Quor in your inventory. Its this sigil which is used to gain access to the Titan quest. You must bring it with you on the quest to gain entry.

The Titan raid

 * The Twilight Forge (quest)
 * The Titan Awakes

The 12-man pre-raid of the Twilight Forge must be completed before you can move on to the Titan Awakes quest. This is the same as the method used for the Vault of Night Dragon raid of VON5/6.

Repeating Titan raid
One of the nice things about this raid is that you do not have to repeat the pre-quests to re-run this raid. Upon successful completion, you will have the regular raid quest timer. When this completes, you will be able to repair your Sigil of Dal-Quor by speaking to Karn Cold-Trail and Ostler Caulstone on the foothold of the Restless Isles. You will then be able to run raid again.

A common error is to arrive at the raid without repairing your sigil after a successful previous raid. Please remember to repair when gaining traveling to the quest entrance at Volcano's Mouth.
