Walkthrough
A repeatable quest for level 40+ mages: collect 
Nebulite Orb at «Ivory Tower Crater» and trade them for adena or items, or gamble with them. Starts with Cema in «Hardin's Academy».
# Start
- Talk to Cema in «Hardin's Academy» and go through the dialog to the end, agreeing with him.
- Head to «Ivory Tower Crater» and kill the monsters from the table. Each has a 50% chance to drop Nebulite Orb, with no limit.
Who gives orbs
| Monster | Chance |
|---|---|
| Manashen Gargoyle | 50% |
| Enchanted Monstereye | 50% |
| Enchanted Stone Golem | 50% |
| Enchanted Iron Golem | 50% |
# Orb games
- At the bottom of the crater stand two collectors - you can gamble orbs with them. You need at least 10 Nebulite Orb to play.
- Marsha plays rock-paper-scissors: the bet is 10 orbs. A win gives 20 orbs, a draw returns the bet, a loss loses it. The outcome is random every time, a third each, whatever sign you pick.
- Trumpin plays heads or tails: guess right and you win with a 50% chance; guess wrong and you lose 10 orbs and the streak resets. After a win you can take the prize or keep playing: 1 win in a row - 10 orbs, 2 - 30, 3 - 70, 4 - 150. A fifth win in a row also gives 150 orbs and ends the streak.
# Reward
- Hand the orbs to Cema: «Get money» - he takes all the orbs and pays 120 adena for each.
- Or choose to trade orbs for items - the list is in the table below. The quest doesn't end; you can collect and hand in orbs as many times as you like.
- Take
Ectoplasm Liqueur to Icarus in «Hardin's Academy»: for each drink he gives one random item from the second table. - To drop the quest, tell Cema. Any remaining orbs will be lost.
