hey, so, made my necro in Cantha, and got it to level 20 in cantha (Seeing as how the quests there have huge exp rewards), and I went to Lion's Arch, blah blah and then I want to get my -50hp cesta for my 55SSnecro, and I don't exactly have enough money to pay for a cesta from somebody else. So I say, "not a problem!" I trekked all the way back to ascalon from Lion's Arch, and lo and behold, I CAN'T GET A SINGLE FREAKING QUEST IN ASCALON CITY.

Can somebody please help?! Or at least tell me WHY this is happening?!

Canthans can not get any quest prior to Lion's Arch. This has been stated so my friggin times it's rediculous.

boo, teasing.
For the OP (and other new players) : many will tell you that item has been recently removed from the game, but will trade you for a pint of your blood and your first-born. It's still there.

Oh, and item duplication is impossible, too.

Options:

1. Create a Tyria Character and do the Quest (The item is still there! It always has been)

2. Buy the -50 item - It sells for only 5K, that is your best option.

You only have a certain percent chance of getting the -50 cesta it seems.

And that Percent Chance is 100%....Its the Earth Scroll that alternate between -20 hp and -5 energy.

People post "ZOMG THE QUEST DOESNT GIVE IT ANYMORE" all the time...

And it's probably because they looked at the quest rewards beforehand and don't see any stats

No, you'll just have a big ass collection of 15^50 req7 Crystalline Swords. Swords up the butt probably won't feel to great, let alone have cold crystal touching your skin =/

its funny how people always make up rumours about how you cant get the quest anymore and every instance they have been proven wrong.
