A Gifted needs to know the different ways to buff themselves before combat. Ulaven the Mage will teach you how.

Quest text[edit]

Ulaven tells you, I'm going to teach you about boons now, Elteria. Except, there is... one issue with that. You see, Mages can't use the majority of these beneficial spells due to a lack of understanding of the augmentation skill. However! You're in luck. There is a few Gift spells we can use.

  • Gift spells?

Ulaven tells you, That's right. Gift spells are unique boons that you can only have a limited quantity active at once. At season one-hundred, it's a total of five. For now, it's one. Try this spell - it is based entirely on your knowledge of Flame!

You have received 1 Spell: Gift of Arcanist I.

After casting the spell, you feel a surge of power, increasing your knowledge of arcane magics.

Ulaven tells you, Does that feel better? Do you feel the power surging through you? Excellent! Other Gifted can always just cast buffs on you if necessary, which you will find greatly helpful in your journey.

  • Now what?

Ulaven tells you, Go find the Agh'kuk Scouts and use your new found strength against them. They're pretty intelligent little creatures and may cast some augments and ailments of their own. Cull five of them, then return here. They are located by the Lookout Camp. Do you see the odd beach with the four rocks on your map, on the west side of the island? That's where their tribe is located.

You have slain enough Agh'kuk. Return to Ulaven the Mage.

Ulaven tells you, You've returned! I hope that wasn't too much of a challenge... all boons are on a timer, so they will only last so long and need to be refreshed. The same goes for Gifts, and at some point, you may want to join a school that raises your augmentation skill so that you have access to more boons. For now, you can use scrolls!

  • Scrolls?

Ulaven tells you, Yes! Scrolls are spells made into a one-time usable item. You see, even if you cannot cast the spell, you can use the scroll. Fancy, right? Scholars are pretty intelligent tradesfolk! I do not have many scrolls to spare, but I can offer a few for the road. If you want more, you'll need to seek out Gifted who can craft it for you.

You have received 3 Enhance Armor I.

You have received 3 Enhance Health I.

Steps[edit]

  • Speak with Ulaven the Mage.
  • Scribe Gift of Arcanist I and cast it on yourself. You can scribe a spell by right clicking it and choosing 'Scribe'. From there, it appears in your spell book, which is in your knowledge window.
  • Speak again with Ulaven the Mage.
  • Defeat five (5) Agh'kuk on the western beach of New Trismus. The Agh'kuk are located west of the Lookout Camp, on the beach with four large rocks on the western coast of New Trismus.
  • Ulaven 3.1
  • Return to Ulaven the Mage.
