Hidden AA’s
If your lookin to Min/Max or find a cool way to increase your characters abilities - this is a guide that will have the quests and items that give AA's to your character that are hidden! These are not listed under the Special tab at all until you actually get them - hence Hidden AA's. I would like to make sure this list is as complete as possible, and I'm pretty sure there are more items / quests out there that will give hidden AA's to your characters. Hopefully we can make this a complete list!

Sanctity of the Keepers / Dark Reign
Dragons of Norrath Expansion
This is by far the best of the bunch – it takes a while to do and takes faction work. You will be working either Norrath Keepers or the Dark Reign faction (based on your characters race).
You have to do group quests and raids to complete it (easy at 120). Follow the links below and do them in order and you will get to the 5/5 Sanctity rank.
AA
1/5 - Gift of the Keepers / Dark Reign - Base stats (and stat cap) increase by 10
2/5 - Valor of the Keepers / Dark Reign - 2% Maximum Health, 250Mana or 250 Endurance
3/5 - Embrace of the Keepers / Dark Reign - Buff slot limit increase by 1
4/5 - Power of the Keepers / Dark Reign - Crit Chance increase 1-3% for Spells, Heals and Melee.
5/5 - Sanctity of the Keepers / Dark Reign - Resist Detrimental Spells
Once maxed the AA reads as follows –
Sanctity of the Keepers / Dark Reign
Your devotion to Norrath’s Keepers increase your total and maximum strength, stamina, agility, dexterity, wisdom, intelligence, and charisma by 10 points, your maximum base health (derived from your stamina) by 3%, your maximum mana and endurance by 200 points, the number of mystical effects that can affect your by 1, your chance of performing a critical melee hit with all skills by 40%, the chance your spells will apply critically by 1%, and grants a 1% chance to completely resist incoming detrimental spells.
These two walkthroughs are great. I used both to get the proper faction needed and quests needed in order to complete the entire 5/5 AA

Aura of Battle
Scars of Velious Expansion
This was originally a buff but was changes to give your character a permanent stat. This AA comes from items – Plus it is limited to WAR, PAL, and SHD. The items do list CLR and DRU as well – but I am unsure if they will give the AA to the classes – worth finding out for sure.
AA
1/1 – Aura of Battle – Increase HP regen by 2 hp per tick, Increase Attack by 10 points.
The items it comes from are:
Fearsome Shield

Pauldrons of Ferocity
https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=5454
Breath of Venesh
Seeds of Destruction Expansion
This was a buff and was changed to an AA and permanently gives you the stats and comes from Items. This one does have a downside – it lowers your End / Mana regen per tick (please keep that in mind). This AA comes from items - The links below show the buff and the items that give the AA.
Now this buff is limited. It will go to 5/5 for some classes (mostly casters and priest classes) and 4/5 for hybrids. Each class seems to have a weird cap.
AA
5/5 – Breath of Venesh – Increase HP regen by 110 per tick, decrease End 22 per tick, decrease Mana 22 per tick.
4/5 – Tiring Breath – Increase HP regen by 70 per tick, decrease End 14 per tick, decrease Mana 14 per tick.
Breath of Vanesh

Tiring Breath

Harmonize
Underfoot Expansion
Bard ONLY – this increases all song damage by 9% - It’s a must have! This AA comes from items as well.
AA
4/4 – Harmonize – This passive ability increases the effectiveness of your singing skill by 0.9% Activate items with this effect to progress this ability.
The easiest item to get that gives this AA comes from Phosphorescent Rapier of Dim Light - 260 Marks of Valor.
https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=85791
There are other items that give this effect as well – they are upgraded versions of the Phosphorescent Rapier, and 2 other items.

Ancient Flames
Rain of Fear
Kind of an amazing AA -But extremely hard to get. Hardcore Heritage is the only time to get it. Luckily you can get the attunable version - so you can unattune it and have multiple toons click it.
Ancient Flames - 17% overhaste, 18 HP Regen per tick
Items it comes from:
Ancient Cloak of Flames
This is the attunable version - Only drops during Harcore Heritage
Ancient Cloak of Flames
Everquest Item Information for Ancient Cloak of Flames
everquest.allakhazam.com
Mightly Cloak of Flames
This is the No Drop version - Only drops during Hardcore Heritage
Mighty Cloak of Flames
Everquest Item Information for Mighty Cloak of Flames

That’s the ones that I have found so far! If anyone happens to know of any other clickable item or quests that gives you AA’s please post it and it will be added to the list!
