Dear Amon, the quest asks that you search the sarcophagi in the Tomb of Crankenspank to find the Symbol of Istaria.
There is only one sarcophagus in the tomb and it is not selectable to perform a search. I have looked all around the sarccophagus but have not bee able to locate the symbol.
I tried killing skeles and also crankenspank hoping for a drop but I got nothing.
I have not been able to source any other info about this quest.
Please tell me what I need to do. :)
There is a sarcophagus in the tomb that you can gather from.
I vaguely remember having to collect the dust from mushroom-sized things around the sarcophagus, not the sarcophagus itself. Or am I thinking of something else entirely?
If you are looking for Grave Dust, this is gathered from the sarcophagus not from mushrooms.
Okies I went to Crankenspank's tomb to check it out. I found the sarcophagus in the building on the lower level, not up where Crankenspank walks about. With my istarian army knife in hand, I was able to gather a few grave dust. I don't know what mushrooms I got into before but they must have been pretty strong... ;-)
The sarcophigus can not be gathered from...any other thoughts ?:(Quote:

Just to be clear, the sarcophagus looks like a broken stone coffin.
I have tried many times to gather from this sarcophagus, but for some reason I can not gather anything. I can not even select the sarcophagus as a target.Quote:

A friend of mine is having trouble with this bit too. She harvested the sarcophagus, looked in a coffin nearby, checked to see if Crankenspank dropped it, nothing. Is it bugged or are we missing something?
The first step "Recover the Symbol of Istara from the Tomb of Crankenspank" will be clarified to also indicate you must kill Crankenspank. However, once you do that the next step says to gather from a sarcophagus.
So, the order of steps is:
1. Kill Crankenspank
2. Gather dust from a sarcophagus
