The 14 quest steps

1. 1Talk to Councillor Delaroka

   Dialogue[3,3] · Councillor Delaroka

   In Misery's Desert, Councillor Delaroka gives you his Elimination Round Certificate so you can continue the trials and become a Tax Collector. It's the only way into the Oasis, where the last Felling Wind Source is located.

3. 3Defeat 5 monsters of each species

5. 5Receive the list of taxes

   Dialogue[3,1] · Oasis Guard

   Give the ropes to the Guardian and ask for the last mission. If you succeed, it opens the Oasis to you; if you fail, it does too, but as fertiliser. Open the List of Taxes to Be Collected in your quest inventory: four people to visit, in the order of your choice, each with a few tasks.

6. 6Collect Bascova Silemphra's tax

   Combat[3,2] · Bascova Silemphra

   Bascova was planning to trade her precious stones for food. Fight 5 Starven in Misery's Desert to get 5 Food Bags, which drop automatically, then come back and give them to her: she hands you the Bag of Precious Stones.

   Dialogue

   1. “Tell her she's among the people who owe a tax”
   2. “Hand over the food bags and demand the bag of precious stones in exchange”

7. 7Collect Koriolys's tax

   Collect[4,2] · Koriolys

   Koriolys didn't have time to gather the bone powder for her fertiliser. Click twice on each of the three only clickable bones in the desert, with about 5 minutes of waiting between two clicks, to gather 6 Bone Powder. Give them to her: she tells you about Allisterine, the foreigner who was looking for a precious object in the desert, and gives you the Desert Fertiliser.

   • [2,2] the dragon skull
   • [1,2] the small skull
   • [-1,3] the human ribs

   • 6 × Bone Powderto hand over
   • Desert Fertiliserreceived

8. 8Collect Lam Pysca's tax

   Collect[2,3] · Lam Pysca

   Overwhelmed by the wounded paupers, Lam Pysca has no time to sew, so you have to patch the fabric yourself. Click the broken crate on the left to take the Damaged Fabric and the Patching Tool, then click the pile of garbage at the top of the map, which serves as a workshop, to make 3 Patched Fabric.

   Dialogue

   1. “Ask her for the patched fabrics as the tax to pay”

   It seems you need a crafting profession, tailor, shoemaker or other, from a certain level.

   Combat[4,3] · Lavra Jamahder

   Lavra is about to draw water, but a tofu is stopping her. Talk to Tofeteo: the fight is solo. You get a Water Ration; then talk to Lavra Jamahder again.

11. 11Destroy the Felling Wind Source

    Combat[4,1] · Mazetti

    Enter the Oasis and talk to Mazetti, who has also become a collector: Shi Oro didn't survive the last trial, and the last wind source is at the back of the Judgement of the Scales building. You are teleported: talk to the Felling Wind Source to attack it. The fight is solo. Then talk to Mazetti again.

    • Felling Wind Sourcefight · level 200 · 11,000 HP · 16 AP · 0 MP

12. 12Report back to Councillor Delaroka

    [3,3] · Councillor Delaroka

    Tell the Counsellor that the last wind source is gone, along with the bad news about Shi Oro. Mazetti was supposed to join you but never arrived: someone who knows the desert like the back of his hand wouldn't have gotten lost.

13. 13Look for Mazetti

    Movement

    His sister Cozetti hasn't seen him since he came to collect her tax. The Oasis Guard saw him taken under heavy escort to the Judgement of the Scales: he supposedly broke the Oasis rules.

    • [3,4] talk to Cozetti, Mazetti's sister
    • [3,1] talk to the Oasis Guard

14. 14Free Mazetti

    Combat[3,0] · Mazetti

    Mazetti is surrounded by a guard of Skentu: the fight can be done with several players. Then talk to Mazetti again: he doesn't want to set foot in the Oasis again, and a woman reportedly stole an item from Misery's quarters before disappearing. There must therefore be a breach in the walls. The quest ends; keep the dialogue going to get the next one.

    Dialogue

    1. “Get ready for the escort's attack”

    • Skentufight · levels 200 to 212 · 6,000 to 6,600 HP · 12 AP · 6 MP
