Phiarlan Carnival

From DDO wiki
(Redirected from The Maleficent Cabal)
Jump to navigation Jump to search
450 DP Requires access to adventure pack: Phiarlan Carnival

The freaks are all about when the Phiarlan Carnival hits town! It’s a circus of depravity and danger, and you have front-row seats for the show. Four new extensive dungeon adventures are coming your way when the Phiarlan Carnival arrives. But the lights and the glitter hide a terrible darkness, and you’re acting without a net when you confront the Phiarlan Carnival!

The Maleficent Cabal story arc is bestowed by Rouge in the House Phiarlan Enclave near the Marketplace Gate to the Southeast.

Before Update 5, this Adventure Pack had been advertised as "The Carnival of Shadow" which is the traveling circus of House Phiarlan, filled with illusion, acrobatics, and exotic creatures and entertainers from across Khorvaire. In fact you will see that in this quest chain. Below are more details about the quests that make up this Adventure Pack.

Reward List[edit]

The end reward for the 4-quest chain above (called The Maleficent Cabal in your quest journal, and given by NPC Rouge) is a mix of items that can be pulled from one of the optional chests in the chain (e.g. Grim's Bracelet), some items only available as end-reward (see table below), and 1-2 items of random loot. So a player has the chance to pull many of the items directly in one of the quests or get it at the end of the chain. Since Update 7, pieces of the Korthos sets* have been appearing as well, though these seem to be in *addition* to the unique Phiarlan items, rather than replacing them. The random items are BtA; the Korthos items are all BtC.

(* including items which otherwise are only available once per life when you first run Misery's Peak)

Note that you can talk to Rouge and run the chain again - in any order, as long as you do all four quests - for another reward. The following is a list of the items that can only be acquired by completing the chain. NOTE: Named items that can appear on this quest arc's end reward list will have a 100% chance of appearing on every third completion of the story arc.
