Elemental Planes: Flagging and Trials

Your friendly guide to getting flagged for the Elemental Planes in EverQuest's Planes of Power expansion. Learn the trials, quests, and key NPCs needed for access.

Hey there! So you're looking to dive into the Elemental Planes in EverQuest? Awesome! This guide will walk you through the flagging and trials you'll need to get access. Keep in mind, this content is mostly for older players, and being level 62 or higher now grants access to most of the Planes of Power zones. The main draw these days is usually the raider buff, but it's still a fun challenge with a good group of 120s! ## Plane of Justice First up, head to the Plane of Justice and find Mavuin in the basement. Give him a hail and ask 'what information?'. You'll need to complete one of the trials and get a mark from it. After that, hail the Tribunal who ran the trial and say, 'I have come to plead the case of Mavuin'. Return to Mavuin, hail him again, and you'll get flagged for both the Plane of Valor and the Plane of Storms. Doing all the trials lets you access the 7th Hammer, but you don't need that to get into the Elemental Planes. ## Plane of Nightmares In the Plane of Tranquility, find Elder Poxbourne in 'Sick Bay' (near the Plane of Disease entrance, by the beach with sick elders). Hail him, then hail Adroha Jezith and say 'tortured by nightmares' to get a pre-flag. Now, venture into the Plane of Nightmares. Look for the hedge near the left zone wall, across the river. Hail Thelin Poxbourne there, and he'll port up to 3 groups into a maze. Beat the event at the end, and you'll get a flag for PoNB (Terris Thule's lair). Head back to Sick Bay, hail Elder Poxbourne and Adroha again. Finally, zone into PoNB through the gate near the hedge, defeat Terris Thule, and hail the Planar Projection. This flags you for the Plane of Torment. There's also an alternative quest for Plane of Torment access if you prefer. ## Plane of Disease Find Alder Fuirstel in the Plane of Tranquility, right by the entrance to the Plane of Disease. Ask him 'what ward' to get your pre-flag. Head into the Plane of Disease, defeat Grummus, and hail the Planar Projection. Then, zone into the Crypt of Decay through the pipe near Grummus. Once you're done, return to Sick Bay and hail Elder Fuirstel. An alternative quest also exists for Crypt of Decay access. ## Plane of Innovation When you enter the Plane of Innovation, hail Nitram Anizok. If he's not around, clear out the mobs near the two-room hut down the path to the right until he spawns. Go through his dialogue and say 'collecting materials'. You'll need to gather a copper node, a bundle of super conductive wires, and an intact power cell from mobs in the zone (you can loot these beforehand). Give him the items, and he'll lead you through the zone (mobs will aggro, so be ready!). He'll activate the Xanamech Nezmirthafen. Defeat it, then hail Nitram Anizok again. This flags you to enter the Factory. Once inside the Factory, hail Giwin Mirakon and go through his dialogue, saying 'I will test the machine'. Head to the main construction area and defeat the Manaetic Behemoth. Keep the spiders away from his room to make him targetable. Giwin Mirakon will spawn near the Behemoth's corpse. Hail him to get another character flag. You are now flagged for the Plane of Tactics! There's also an alternative quest for Plane of Tactics access. ## Plane of Valor In the Plane of Valor, grab the quest from Sergeant Johson Popoah to get the key for Aerin 'Dar's Lair. Defeat the crystalline dragon, Aerin`Dar, and then hail the Planar Projection for your flag. After the fight, click the floor in the arena to reveal a tunnel leading to the Halls of Honor. An alternative quest can also grant you access to the Halls of Honor. ## Plane of Storms To get into the Bastion of Thunder, you'll need to go through Askr the Lost. You can find more quest information for this on Arcanist. ## Crypt of Decay Once you're in the Crypt of Decay, touch the throne to port downstairs. Defeat the Spectre of Corruption. This will trigger the Bertoxxulous event, which can happen in five different areas: Center, North, East, South, and West. After you kill the Spectre of Corruption, make sure to move...
