essence of cleansing: Fact of Fiction ????

[Drith]

In order to remove the Taint of Shavarath, you must combine your tainted item with an essence of cleansing in the final Eldritch Device within the Shroud. There is a chance to receive an essence of cleansing as an end reward. Hope that clears that up for you.

I'd say that on my server alone a good 250+ people will run the shroud to completion per week. So do these things really exist or what ? Maybe Tolero meant to say that "There is a chance to receive an essence of cleasing as an 20th end reward. Instead of just general end reward ?????

Confirmation / Clerification from Devs is always super uber appreciated.

It would be nice if /quest completions worked on the 13th Eclipse so we could tell how close we were to getting our Essence of Cleansing.

I don't know about you guys, but I doubt that anybody will have the 20th reward next week because of the delay on getting off timer on the first run, etc. My guess would be the week after which isn't too long to wait anyway.

No, I dont have a Screenshot.

Yes, they drop as end rewards.

I don't believe you. In the over 60 completion runs I have been in nobody has pulled one. All the people that I have run with who have run in 100s of completion runs cumulatively have never pulled one or heard of one being pulled as a general end reward. I call bs on your statement unless your referring to the 20th run which there is no proof yet..

OK, Suit yourself. No Sweat off my back..... lol

I would say they are more rare than +3 Tomes dropping in the reaver raid... Thats for sure..... But they do drop.

i would tend to beleive imaqt, because i know he knows what he's talking about generally

I will check with The Free Companions, Twilight Alliance, and my guild to verify. We cumulatively have probably about 2000-3000 completion runs, but I have not heard about anyone pulling one thus far and I am pretty sure they will verify that fact. Someone probably is bsing Impaqt is my guess.

[Barumar]

Not to jump into the middle of the 'fire', but how about a screen shot of the item that has had its taint removed?

I mean, if one did drop, then that someone probably used it - right?

[Shima-ra]

Exactly what I was gonna ask
Either you take a screenshot of the reward list, the essence or the item used on.

just to be clear i'm not taking sides or anything, just pointing out that impaqt is probably in the top 10 of beleivable forum people, it's not like he's a noob or someone who is constantly full of BS. That's all.

[Turial]

I would say they can be pulled but the rarity of the item would make it so only a handful at most of people would have gotten them by now. This would balance the ability to have multiple green steel items on at once.

Once we see a screen shot people will stop worrying about it.

Well, you don't have to think impaqt is lying for what he's saying to not be true. It's entirely possible since he does not have a screenshot of the clensing item or a shroud item with the taint removed that he is claiming it exists as an end reward because someone else told him they looted it. So simply, Imaqt could be trusting someone, and that person could be lying or joking. It has nothing to do with trusting Impaqt, and everything to do with trusting something 3rd hand without any proof.

This does bring up an interesting question - how often do players think the cleansing item should drop?

Every time.

What? You expected a different answer?

[Gornin]

I'm pretty sure I saw a screenshot of one in the crafting thread. Can't look for it now. I'll try later unless someone else find it.

[jscurrier071]

Once the "taint" is removed, what benefit does that give? The ability to equip more than one Shroud raid item?

If you're referring to the one where it says (UBER) in the descriptor, i think you can go ahead and take that as a fake.
