Whilst soloing, i finally took on the little group of enchanted swords etc in their little village in the arid sea.

When I walked upto a certain spot, this red box (a bit like the ark of the covenant) appeared and I picked it up.

I can't figure out where to take it to. I must have missed a quest with all 3 of my chars.

Can anyone help and tell me where to take it.

i think thats just one of those things that Anet hasnt gotten around to. It will probably either go away or become part of a quest in the future, for now, its just a beacon for enemies to find you.

One interesting thing is that it's pratically the same item in a necro quest. I've heard it's same item a monk had to retrieve from catacombs and you had to protect him in pre searing but all of my slots are full and I don't want to delete a character just to check.

EDIT: Found my screenies...

The ancient weapon the OP was talking about


One from that necro quest

the one the monk has to recover is different, but yeah it is the same thing for a necro quest. Other than that, who knows what it is supposed to do.

yeah i wonder what's the history behind those artifacts. perhaps those came from days where humans warred against the forgotten ones or something like that

then over centuries people forgot about them and some people start to rever those as divine objects and so on

What was the name of the necro quest where you found that box? I don't remember seeing anything like that.

I don't remember the specific name of the quest but it's given by Munne in Sardelac Sanitarium. You just have to kill some grawl and get the artifact because she does'nt do 'heavy lifting'.

It was a idea from anet for ancient secrets from Anet that never got figured in. Was meant to smite statue as a bridge me and Chuck Norris think.

He he, yeah forgot to blank those out, but i think those 2 are a no brainer anyway.

Only reason i have 105 health, is cus you have to carry the item in your hands, so ur wand and -50 hp tem go back into your inventory slots. As soon as i drop it, i get my 55hp back.
