How to get into PoP zones : EQ1 EverQuest 1 Discussion

-----Bastion of Thunder
Complete a multi-part key quest in PoStorms, details pending.

-----Doomfire, the Burning Lands (aka Plane of Fire)
Kill Solusek Ro in the Tower of Solusek Ro. Requirements: Access to ToSR, possible additional flags.

-----Drunder, Fortress of Zek (aka Plane of Tactics)
Destroy the Manaetic Behemoth in PoInnovation (factory). Requirements: At least one person on the raid must have the clockwork dragon flag to open the door.

-----Halls of Honor
Method 1: Kill Aerin'Dar the crystal dragon in PoValor. Requirements: Acccess to PoValor. At least one person must have completed the quest for the key to Aerin'Dar's chamber, which requires a number of drops from around PoValor (details pending).
Method 2: Complete the Box of Souls quest, requiring a Block of Perillium (PoI), a Crystalline Brain (PoV), and the Heart of an Agony Mephit (PoN), 3000 plat and some luck (there is a random chance that the NPC fails his attempt to craft the box). It then requires triggering 3 rare spawn mobs in PoJ. The final result is the Ring of Marr, a one-man key to Halls of Honor (which does go on /key). Requirements: Access to PoValor and a lot of patience.

-----Lair of Terris Thule (aka PoN-B)
Complete the Thelin Poxborne hedge maze event (18 people per run, crowd control critical to success) and hail Thelin Poxborne after the death of the construct of nightmares. Requirements: Group leaders of this event must have a flag from Plane of Tranquility, near the PoN entrance.

-----Plane of Disease - No quest required

-----Plane of Innovation (factory)
Trigger the clockwork dragon in Plane of Innovation and kill him. Hail the gnome after his death. This flag allows the door to be opened, and thus not everyone requires this flag.

-----Plane of Innovation (scrapyard) - No quest required

-----Plane of Justice - No quest required

-----Plane of Nightmares - No quest required

-----Plane of Storms
Complete at least 1 trial in the Plane of Justice. Then plead Mavuin's case with the Tribunal and return to Mavuin for the final flag. Requirements: Flag from Mavuin in PoJ jails (may get after trial if needed)

-----Plane of Torment
Kill Terris Thule in the Lair of Terris Thule, and hail the appropriate Planar Projection. Requirements: Access to PoN-B.

-----Plane of Valor
Complete at least 1 trial in the Plane of Justice. Then plead Mavuin's case with the Tribunal and return to Mavuin for the final flag. Requirements: Flag from Mavuin in PoJ jails (may get after trial if needed)

-----Ruins of Lxanvom (upper, aka Crypt of Decay)
Method 1: Kill Grummus in the Plane of Disease. Requirements: Must have the key to Grummus's lair (which drops off Gryme, the Crypt Guardian) and the flag from the NPC standing outside the entrance to PoDisease.
Method 2: Kill the Harrion Larva, Scaevien Larva, Seegien Larva, and Generien Larva in PoDisease (all of which are very rare spawn worms). Turn the 4 resulting Flesh into the ogre that wanders around the zone. Receive a one-man key (goes on /key, even) to the Ruins. Requirements: Insane patience.

-----Ruins of Lxanvom (lower)
Kill High Priest Ultor Szanvon. Requirements: Access to Ruins of Lxanvom (upper).

-----Temple of Marr (aka HoH-B)
Complete the trials of Halls of Honor.

-----Tower of Solusek Ro
Details pending. There were previously several paths to enter this zone, some of which were apparently a bug. The current method appears to involve killing Bertoxxulous in Ruins of Lxanvom (lower), but may require other flags or god kills as well ...
