Aion Holy Templars Armors And Weapons, Devanion and Miragent(updated)

2011-10-15T15:21:00.000-07:00

Daevanion items can be obtained by completing some missions, and like the Abyss and Draconic items, Daevanion items are a new category of items. Daevanion missions are received by all classes from both factions at the same levels.

These are the lvl 30 Quests:

Those quests starts with Leah, the litle girl in midle of "Exalted Path" (screenshoot)

1st Quest

2'nd Quest

3'rd Quest

At level 30 and at 50, you will receive the Daevanion missions. The first mission will automatically be activate upon hitting level 30.

After completing the mission, the character will receive armor usable by their class(armor piece can be chosen, but the type will be determined by the class of the character completing the quest) as a quest reward. These missions can only be completed once, and the level 30 armor rewards are of Legendary-Grade, whereas the level 50 armor rewards are of Fabled-Grade.

The most special feature about Daevanion items is that even though its a quest reward item(not soulbound but still untradeable), they can be banked in your character account storage. What this means is that if you have many characters on the same account, Daevanion armors can be shared by all your 'alt' characters.

Daevanion armors also have set bonuses. If the necessary amount of armor pieces of that set (plate, leather, chain, robe) are equipped, then bonus stats will be given. The actual bonuses will be explained further down.

By having up to 5 characters which include your main and alternate characters, you can obtain all 5 pieces of Daevanion for a complete set.

Keep in mind that the character completing the Daevanion mission can only receive armor that is designed for their class. However, Daevanion armors can be traded in for another types(plate, chain, leather, robe), so this system should not be too problematic.

Trading Method
- Say that you are trying complete a Daevanion Robe set, but because you have Gladiator alt, you now have the Daevanion plate boots. Then -> all you have to do is trade those plate boots in for robe boots.
- The armor trading method for Elyos : Go Sanctum->Lyceum->near the priest is a NPC called Sibylla she change any armor type for any armor type you need in exchange with a Devanion Light who cost around 50.000 kinah and can be buyed from Ophenes in Divine Accessory Shop!
For Asmodians the NPC is called Nasbi, located in Pandemonium.

The 5 Legendary-Grade Daevanion items above can be compared to other regular equal level Legendary-Grade items of the same type, and it can be seen that the stats on the Daevanion armors are never lower than the regular Legendary items. The extra bonuses gained from equipping multiple set items also make Daevanion items more preferable.

The effects of the 2 Piece, 3 Piece, 4 Piece and 5 Piece bonuses all stack on top of each other, and when all 5 pieces are equipped, another boost called the 'Set Bonus' will appear on the very bottom of the tooltip. This 'Set Bonus' effect will not appear unless a full set(5 pieces) is equipped.
After u equip a character with a full set u can go to Fermina and get the 3rd quest for the devanion weapon!

Here is the lvl 30 devanion weapon Quest

-MIRAGENT GUIDE- or lvl 50 devanion quests

First thing is first, unlike the level 30 set, you do not need several character of a certain level to obtain the set. You only need one. You do however have to go through quite a long series of chain quests to get everything, and it's no walk in the park. It takes time and is expensive. It is not however the most expensive equips in the game nor (depending on preference) is it the best armor in the game, the weapon come pretty close to being the best however. In my opinion, this is actually a cheap (Compared to price of better gear) and fast way (Fast when compared to getting a full set of the best stuff) to obtain a decent set of gold equips. To be able to start the quest for the first piece of the armor, you will have to of completed the level 30 Daevonian quest, don't worry you only have to do it once, it is however quite a bit of running around, and you get to choose which piece of the armor you want. Some of the following names may be different for the Asmos as this is based off Elyos, the quests themselves are very similar for both factions.

OK, so you've leveled to 50 and you are ready to get some decent gear:
Attention:you can get lvl 50 full armor set without to lvl 5 chars to 30,u need only quest 1 and 2 on that character but if u want the lvl 50 weapon u have to finish the lvl 30 weapon quest wich means to get whole set from 5 toons!

Prerequisites: 1) Finish all campaign quests in each of the Elyos zones;
2) having done the lv30 Daevonian quest that gives you one piece of lv30 armor (not the weapon quest).

Quest 1: The Class Perceptor Consent (Boots):
* Starts in Sanctum.
* Talk to a bunch of NPCs in Sanctum, buy a 4.2 mil Oath Stone item from the accessory vendor, turn in quest.
* Yes the first one is that easy.

• You must receive the approval of four class preceptors to become a Miragent’s Holy Templar. Go to receive the signatures of Boreas, Jumentis, Charna, and Thrasymedes on the recommendation letter, then buy and Oath Stone and ask High Priest Jucleas to perform the ritual of affirmation.
• This first part of the series is quite easy compared to some of the others. To start the quest you need to get it from the guardian of your factions main city (Sanctum/PandaTown). The series itself is quite straight forward, all you have to do is go around to each of the classes job instructors and get letters from them. They are the job instructors for the high level skill books, not the lvl 25 and under skill books. After that you need to buy a special item for just over 4.2mil Kinah from a vendor which is also in your factions main city, talk to another NPC and you are done. You will be rewarded with the first piece of the set, the boots =D

Step 1. Receive the signature of BoreasPreceptor of Gladiators and Templars. He is in the Protectors Hall of Sanctum. on the recommendation letter.
Step 2. Receive the signature of JumentisThe preceptor of Rangers and Assassins found in Protectors Hall of the Sanctum. When it comes to the study of poisons, no one else can compare. on the recommendation letter.
Step 3. Receive the signature of CharnaPreceptor of Sorcerers and Spiritmasters. She is in Protectors Hall of Sanctum. on the recommendation letter.
Step 4. Receive the signature of ThrasymedesPreceptor of Clerics and Chanters. He is in the Protectors Hall of Sanctum. on the recommendation letter.
Step 5. Take the Oath Stone to High Priest JucleasA Protector of Divinity in the Lyceum of Sanctum. The Empyrean Lords wanted to place a reliable person at the Lyceum. They appointed quiet and reticent Jucleas as the Protector of Divinity. and ask him to perform the ritual of affirmation.
Step 6. Report the result to LavirintosThe Commander of the Miragent Holy Templars found in the Protectors Hall of Sanctum. As the first son of a family which has produced Daevas for generations, he has never doubted his life as a Guardian..

Quest 2: The Quest For Knights Gloves

* Starts in Sanctum.
* Talk to some NPCs in Sanctum.
* Talk to a crapload of NPCs spread across all Elyos zones who only appear at certain times of the day.
* Buy the same Oath Stone item from Quest 1, turn in quest.
This one like the last involves talking to NPCs everywhere, once again you need to buy the same special item for 4.2mil Kinah and get the Gloves. Fairly Simple, except for the part where these NPCs are only there at cerain times of the day/ month =D

Quest 3: Shoulder The Burden Pauldrons

* Starts in Sanctum.
* Talk to some NPCs in Sanctum.
* You need Medals of Sanctum, which can be obtained via a repeatable solo or group quest. You can do either or both. It's not known how many medals you'll need or what you'll be fighting for them.
* Buy an Oath Stone again and turn in quest.
Like the last one, talk to some NPCs, one of the NPCs will require that you have completed a quest from him/her beforehand. Pay 4,2 mil kinah for item, recieve Pauldrons

Quest 4: Well Rounded Leggings

* Starts in Sanctum.
* Talk to the profession trainer of any of your craft that has reached 449 to obtain a special recipe (for free!).
* Critical this recipe (this is where you gonna need a crap load of Draconic materials if you have bad luck).
* Shell out another 4,2 mil for an Oath Stone, turn in quest.
Side note, this will be the most annoying and most expensive stage, as you have to crit synth a 449 craft, to craft the stone you need 125 Hot balaur blood stains, and 12 hearts, aswell as rare fluxes.
You are probably thinking by now, lol these are easy, just talk to a few NPCs, pay some 6 mil Kinah, its nothing....Welcome to part four =D. As you can probably gather from the title of this one, you will need to do some crafting. This is not just any crafting though, you need to have a craft level of 449p, that means you have to have expert and maxed out expert. Not only that but you have to crit the craft and this is no easy craft. Take a look for yourself at the materials that is needed: Link. These will take quite some time to obtain all of them. Then if you don't crit the craft, you have to get them all again. After you have finally done that and have your critted item buy an item for 6mi l this time, hand it in and get your panties =D

Quest 5: Persistence And Luck Tunic

* Starts in Sanctum.
* Buy a 3.4 mil tool that works like those gathering hats.
* Use the tool to search for a gatherable that appears at random in several zones. You need 20 of them. This is the luck part.
* You guessed it, buy another Oath Stone and turn in.
This one like the title says, requires a lot of luck and patience. You need to find an item that spawns in one place at a time, only spawns at certain times and has a LOT of different spawn locations. You also need to be able to "capture" the item and you will hvae to pay 3.2mil kinah for the "capturer". Once you have done that, buy the special item for 6 mil kinah and recieve your top!

Quest 6:Loyalty Weapon, including shield :

* Starts in Sanctum.
* Get 600 drops from a type of mob in Theobomos (Calydon Chasers and Calydon Shamans)
* Kill 300 of a type of mob in the abyss core.
* Enter the competitive Dreadgion battleground and you have to defeat the boss in Dredgion (Captain Adhati) , you dont need to win the instance also (by having a better score than the opposite team)
* Buy an Oath Stone...
* Get 4000 DP and turn in the quest,
* After that, pay out 13mil kinah for the item and recieve your weapon!

Dark Poeta Guide,Strategies, Pictures, Videos, Tips and Triks

2011-01-06T18:25:00.000-08:00

"The Dimension Door in Poeta had been destroyed in the past, but the Balaur's constant efforts to infiltrate Poeta eventually led them to reopen the Dimension Door and take over Poeta. This is a story about a group of Daevas who stop the Balaur's plans and save Dark Peota which is already in ruins."

There are certain prequests that you should take care of before entering a DP run.
1. "The Secret Summons"get from Jucleas High Priest, and then we get the"[Group] Activation Stone Materials in which you will need 20 Blue Balaur Scale available in several places((killing lvl 50 balaurs near Fortress or Dedgion). Essence of Time and Space matches it sells at general goods merchant for 170.000 kinah . Theoretically, if they get delivered on the Time Activation Stone and he was to travel in the future using the Artifact of Transcendence.

You should do that every time you did a run before you log out, so you’re set to go for the next run.(The entrance is an artefact on heiron, near kishar village or in Abys Core)

Duration: 4 hours.

You need X (check table) for sumon last boss.

Tip:If you have18000+ points and @90 minutes remain time and 1 member higher than 1 star rank you can get more points in fast time and get S for the stronger end-boss.

Table:

Party setup:

•Templar (or Glad tanker) as your main tank

•Cleric

•Chanter (is a must be in DP for this mantras)

•Sorcerer - you will need CC and AoEs(a good SM can handle if u dont have sorc)

•Spiritmaster - add DPS and erosion bosses for better loot

•Ranger / Assassin / DPS - Ranger and Sin’s need, to locate Tree bosses(in steath mode) or you can use "Oculazen Candy"(dunno if three Boosses have hide 1 or 2)

Here’s a map of what’s waitinf for you

1.Spiritmaster Atmach

Drops: Anuhart Elite's Scale Shield

Anuhart Elite's Shield

Atmach's Earrings

Points: 456

First, get the single-pull in front of the village and burn him down. Watch the patrol inside the village, he’s next on your list and should be a single-pull as well. Then there’s two mobs on the left, which you should take out as well. In any case, the tank should always face the mobs away from the group to mitigate as much AoE as possible.
Hugging the left, pass all other mobs and head to the little path that leads down to the waterfront. Here you’ll face another set of mobs, and will most likely get an add as well. Don’t fight them too close to the village, else you’ll get a patrol, too. After you’ve done that, you’ll see two mobs in front of the building with the Spiritmaster boss and a patrol between them. Wait a bit, that patrol does come out far enough to make him a single pull. Then finish off the two guards as well.
Fighting the boss himself can be done in two different ways. First, you should notice that on killing the boss, you will get two additional spawns of 2 mobs each.

One down the pathway, the other one from the other side of the village. Drag the boss all the way down into the water. If you turn left when reaching the waterfront, there’s a nice little nieche in which you can tank-n-spank the boss and have the possiblity to line of sight some of his AoE. This allows you to NOT engage the additional spawns (2 patrols of 2 mobs each) and save some time. The compass shows the stretch of the water in which you would have to fight the boss.

In any case, the SM does some nasty AoE, Sleep and has two Reflect spells, so be wary, stay out of LoS for AoEs and have the SM dispell the shield (Nightmare and Mind Division should be what you’re looking for). If you do that properly, it’s tank-n-spank.
___________________________________________________________________________

Lake Bosses:

Head down to the lake. As soon on the top level map, you basically have to circle it twice. Once outside, to clean the aggro, and only then attack the three bosses. Start from the location seen on the compass screen, and watch the patrol to your right there, you don’t need to kill that mob. Also note the tree on the right ahead of you, there’s an invisible spawn which you want to kill rather now. Since it’s just a single invisible, you should be fine having the tank just running up and making him spawn.
The whole reason for this is that you need to kill the three bosses at the lake, and mobs at the waterfront tend to be social - they join the fight. So dispose of them before that happens.
Have a look at the gigantic range of these bosses. You don’t want to aggro them before you cleared everything, so everyone in your party should be well aware to stay away from their range. Not doing so will cause you trouble !

Happily circle the whole lake and dispose of all the mobs near to the water front. If you see a Captain (and there are 4), grab these guys, they give you quite a few points which will help you on your rating.

Once you’ve circled and cleared, you’re left with the three bosses. Divide your group so everybody knows which controller they’re on. Have them kill the controllers as quickly as possible, while the tank goes in. Don’t use your iron skin as of yet, but make sure the Attack controller goes down quickly. They will respawn, so everybody needs to keep an eye on their assigned controller (Attack, Defense and Property controller). Tank and Spank the bosses down.

Take note that on the compass screen you can see the party being split so everybody is on one of the controllers to dispose them as soon as they spawn. The last boss (if you continue the circular motion) should be approached by the tank with Iron Skin up, as he can hit very hard and one-shot the tank.

For the healer, you need to position yourself rather close to the boss(Marabata of Power), but not facing him directly. You want to keep your whole group in heal range, and the controlers are spread afar quite a bit, so make yourself ready. Also, it doesn’t hurt if you keep an eye on controllers as well.

Points: 319

Tree Bosses:

Next you move to the tree bosses. Again, there’s a lot of mobs you don’t need to engage, and you want to keep it down to a minimum to save time, depending on how fast / good your group is. Stay on the left and circle through the mobs, dragging the single-pull patrol a little bit deeper to the spirits. There’s a spot free of aggro to the left of that patrol, and that’s where the whole team has to move to while dragging the mob.
Then you head forward, killing the spirits on your way. Be aware that there are some invisibles as well, so dispose of them quickly. You should reach a location with two tree stumps. One is where your tank will be, the second one is still in heal-range and provides line-of-sight when facing the bosses. Clear the two mobs around that.
Now you should have either your Ranger, or the Sorcerer (optional Tank with Seed of Detection) locate the first tree boss and drag him to the tree and tank him. He does some nasty damage, but nothing that’s not healable. At 25% though, he puts a crippling condition on the whole team, and that’s when you HAVE TO LINE OF SIGHT and get behind your tree down there. Watch the boss, his Grudge Explosion will wipe the party of you don’t LoS him. If he runs away, just stay put. He’ll come back. As soon as Grudge Explosion is off (and it crits most of the time for quite a bit of damage), heal up the tank. So save your Flash of Recovery for that !
After the boss is down, you have to locate the 2nd tree boss and drag him to the same spot, rhinse-repeat. Only this time the tank should get his Iron Skin up when he see’s Grudge Explosion coming in.

Tree Bosses:

Spider Bosses:

After killing the Tree Bosses, keep left and evade all mobs hugging the left wall. Sometimes somebody will aggro something, so carry on until you hit the little road and kill them right there. As soon as you hit that road, move to the right side and hug that wall. From now on, make sure to loot every mob since you want to get your Processed Drana for the Stigma Quest. It’s a group loot.
If you want to save some time, get the gate down on your way to the Bugs. It’ll spawn 2 mobs at 50% and once it’s down. Kill the first spawn, then almost get the gate down and finish it with ranged attacks only. The mob spawn, won’t aggro you and will despawn once you’re back, so you saved yourself 2 mobs and a bit of time there !

Clear your way to the spot with the Drana Lumps and make sure the first and 2nd (to the right) lump are free of aggro and allow you to move around easily. Don’t pull the big bug (Boss) as of yet, but also clear the way deeper in so your tank can freely move and pull. Now those Bugs are relatively easy to kill, it’s more endurance and proper reaction of all the team members. Basically, you want to drag the boss over the Lump of Drana, which will make him eat that lump. During that time, he won’t do anything, and you can happily DPS the hell out of him. Watch his ‘Drana Pause’ buff, at 5s, you need to get moving the respective other lump of Drana and repeat the process until he’s down. If all goes according to plan, you can more or less get 12% health down per stop.
However, there’s certain things to consider when doing this. As the groups stands at the Drana Lump waiting for the boss to come in, make sure that

You are stacked on of each other. Else the boss will throw AoE which hurts !
You are in line with the incoming boss to lead him directly over the drana lump. This might require moving around as the boss will sometimes change direction. Watch out for that
Don’t attack the boss until he starts to eat his drana. Sheath your weapons if you have to.
If the drana lump is bugged, you need to drag him back and forth between the two lumps until you’ve got him to eat, which can cause deaths

That’s more or less it for the bosses. Here’s where you will loose most of your time if something goes wrong, so don’t screw it up. Drag the remaining two bosses into the same location and rhinse-repeat. If you follow those 4 guidelines, it shouldn’t be a problem at all.

After the first big, the team moves up a little bit and clears some additional adds to make the pull for the tank easier, some happens for the last bug. If a bug has around 12.5% HP left, you can stop moving and burn it down easily.

Spider Bosses:

Spaller Echtra

Points:789

Spaller Rakanatra

Points:789

Spaller Dhatra

Points:789

Road to the Hell:

Now you need to head back towards the original Spore Road. There’s a barricade which you have to tear down. At 50% and 25% the barricade will spawn adds. The first adds are easily handled, the 2nd pair of adds is a Templar and a Mage. Sleep the Mage and kill the Templar first.
As soon as only the mage is left, the Sorcerer can push in and AoE (Big Magma Explosion) the Fungus inside. This will save some time due to the recharge. As for the Fungus, if you caught aggro and don’t want to deal with them yet, run. They are easily beaten, but they will kill your team quite as easily as well.
The double-spawn is the same for the 2nd gate as well - the Mage will spawn at the tree to the left of the 2nd gate, so that’s where the CC goes. Again, some procedure.
I mentioned above a tip for saving time on the gates, and strongly encourage you to do so !

~~TIP:~~ Those mushrooms are worth points, so kill them. If you have a Gladiator, he can work with the Sorcrer to more quickly kill them. Basically you want your Sorc to ninja ahead once you’re down to fighting a single mob and take the Fungi out ahead of time.
Upon reaching the mine, you have to stay right and kill those mobs there, making your way into the mines. If you want the research manual("Hewahewa's Research Report" for the third stigma slot quest-[Group] Stop the Shulacks!), you have to turn left inside the mine and kill the Shugo Professor

Points:409

(Professor Hewahewa) there but only if you have sufficient time left. There are some mobs here and there, but kill them easily.

Telepathy Controller Boss
That’s a huge tree boss who will pick you up to body-slamm you into the ground. It can hurt quite a bit.

Points:789

Three rules

Don’t stand in a circle on the ground, stand between the circles
Have tank and party not stand at the same spot
No AoE whatsoever

There will be adds spawned, but as long as you don’t do anything to them, they will not attack you. So don’t use any AoE. Check which party member gets bodyslammed for spot heals and get your party heals off, and beat that critter down. Nothing really fancy about this, apart from occasional stuns from his attacks. You will also need to throw some party heals after the boss is down, as the damage doesn’t stop right away. Don’t forget about that.

Power Generator Bosses

Main Power Generator

Points:377

Auxiliary Power Generator

Points:377

Emergency Generator

Points:377

One thing to note about the generators is that you don’t want to aggro any of them unless you have cleared everything else. If you do, run into the cave to break aggro. Drag whatever patrols you can into the cave, that should leave some mobs to the right as well as 3 mobs to the left remaining. Move to the left, right where the path upwards starts. Move there as a whole team ! Kill the mobs there, make your way up and down on the other side. Sleep healers and kill the rest.
Now that only the generators are left, you can engange them. First get the one in the middle, then the one on the left (as seen from top of the Abyss gate). Avoid having anyone stand right next to your tank, those floating generator cores will one-shot them if they’re too close together. Burn them down quickly, and don’t loot them yet, as too many cores are floating (only if the tank actually gets to loot).
For the last generator, move to the other side, and have the tank stand in the corner and simply maintain aggro from range. The Chanter will heal, while everybody else will do ranged DPS. Too many floating cores there. Even the Cleric needs to DPS and only occasionally throw a group heal to support the chanter. Boring.
Once all three generators are down, the Brigade General spawns in front of the Gate. Now’s the time to quickly loot the three generators and advance to the boss.

Brigade General Anuhart

Drop

Anuhart Elite's Scale Sword

Anuhart Brigade General's Leather Waist Band

Anuhart Brigade General's Cloth Waist Band

Points:954

You need to keep him on that platform, else he resets. He also spawns adds that the Sorc can kill with AoE, so keep the party close together, it makes it easier for the Sorc to AoE the adds.
The boss himself can hurt quite a bit, but isn’t really a big deal. At 25%, he does Absorb Energy, which is a heal. You need to get a Festering Wound on him, to mitigate that healing effect a bit.
Once the boss is dead, you’ll get your grade and have 5min to enter the Abyss gate to face the end-boss. Recharge Mana, rebuff and go.

The endboss depends on your grade:

A Guide for Tahabata Killing

September 7th 1 AM (September 6th 12 PM EST) - [막장] Team from Kidorun server scored the world first Tahabata kill.

[막장] Members

덤프트럭 - Templar

ShowTime -Gladiator

사탄 - Assassin

Unique - Assassin

슬이 - Cleric

두워프 - Chanter

Boss Abilities:

Abilities

Raging Strike - This is a 35m radius aoe attack that Tahabeta uses randomly at 5~10% health loss. 5000~7000 fire damage

Eruption of Strength - Starting at 55% health, Tahabeta will occasionally gain a buff that reflects 300% of all damage received while summoning several adds.

At 25~27% health, Tahabeta gains several more abilities.

Petrify Soul- renders everyone immobile within 15m radius of Tahabeta

Shatter Soul- inflicts double physical damage on a single petrified target (instant death)

Explosion of Rage - 20m radius aoe fear

Dragon's Breath - Tahabeta breaths fire while summoning 4 Dragoon adds

A lot of groups were able to reach 25%. A couple teams reached 5%.

This is because Tahabata uses Petrifiy->Shatter 2x ->Explosion of Rage x2 right before 25% while summoning 4 dragoons. He does this again right after 25%. Then at around 5%, he does Petrifiy->Shatter 2x->Raging Strike 2x along with yet another 4 adds. 5% combo is the point of wipe for almost all groups.

This basically means the group has 40 seconds after 24% mark to burn the boss down before it uses double raging strike.

General Strategy until 5% [Templar, Gladiator, Assassin, Assassin, Chanter, Cleric]

-All members must equip fire resistance gear

The Templar starts the fight by going in first to tank the first raging strike.

The Gladiator main tanks the boss, then one of the Assassins takes over at 80%. The Templar is not the main tank for this fight but he has an important role at the end.

Starting at 55%, everyone needs to watch out for Eruption of Strength to immediately stop attacking when it's casted as it may mean instant death for the assassins. Vent is strongly recommended. The adds spawned here uses fire attacks and cleric should be able to tank them just fine.

At around 27%, everyone except the assassin tanking moves away from the boss and waits for the first Petrify->Shatter combo.

When the first group of Dragoons spawn, Templar grabs them all and starts tanking them in a corner. The Templar must survive on its own for 90 seconds.

After the second combo attack after 25%, the Gladiator grabs the second group of adds and tanks them next to the boss while constantly applying debuffs on the boss to maximize dps for the Assassins.

The Assassins switch to max dps gear at 30%. It is up to them to dps Tahabeta down before the 3rd combo attack.

It is crucial that assassins avoids shatter->petrify combos with dodge skills.

What [막장] Team did:

-Templar tanks all of the Dragoons using [Mass Taunt] and [Mass Pull].

-Once Templar has 8+ Dragoons on it, Chanter uses [Curtain of Aether I] followed by [Tremor I] then Templar pops [Zikel's Shield-Asmo]/[Nezekan's Shield-Elyos]. While staying alive, the Templar must hold aggro on all of the adds.

-If Templar loses aggro, the Chanter grabs them before they can reach the Cleric. Templar has to take the adds back before [Curtain of Aether I] and [Tremor I] expires.

-Cleric saves its aoe heal for Raging strikes. If anyone does get caught in Petrify, Cleric immediately spams cleanse. The petrify debuff has 3 counters. Assassins dodges all pertify combos with their avoidance skills while the Glad runs out for every cast.

-Wipe after boss kill from 12 angry adds.

-Everyone in this team had 900 fire resistance. With the chanter popping fire resistance buff for each fire attack, they had total of 1000 fire resistance.

Taloc’s Hollow Full Guide Instance, Walktrough, Tips And Triks and Bosses

2010-12-19T08:33:00.000-08:00

Taloc’s Hollow

Levels: 51+ | Cooldown: 46 Hours
Group Size: 1
Entrance:
- Elyos: Inggison - Taloc’s Forest
- Asmodian: Gelkmaros - Krug Basin

When the Cataclysm shattered theTower of Eternity, thousands of fragments from the great structure rained down all over Atreia. One huge shard tore into the ground beneath a great tree, long believed to be holy by nearby villagers. Soon the tree’s roots fused with the fragment, and the tree gained sentience; it became an Elim.

This Elim, Taloc, grew with each passing day, stretching its roots into Atreia’s very bones, and its branches into the turbulent skies overhead. Eventually Taloc grew so large that the hollows inside it became veritable caverns, and the creatures that took up residence inside the Elim mutated. Daevas were recently sent to explore Taloc’s Hollow, but came back days later with a mystery illness...

The time has come for you to explore the depth of Taloc’s Hollow. Quell the bubbling chaos inside the great Elim, and find a cure for the condition that has struck down your fellow immortals!

Getting There

Getting to the entrance of Taloc’s Hollow is not a very difficult feat. Both the Elyos and Asmodian entrances are fairly close to each faction’s main fortress. While you could take an Air Line to get a little bit closer to these areas, the time spent flying and backtracking generally makes the added cost not worth it.

Getting to Taloc’s Hollow in Inggison

Follow the pathway south from Inggison Illusion Fortress towards Phanoe Valley. Look for where the pathway splits and ascend Taloc’s Hill.

You will notice a wind stream at the top of the hill. Jump and glide into the wind stream and ride it into Taloc’s Forest.

Taloc’s Forest is a flight area, so from the Taloc Research Site, fly down to the left of Taloc (the giant tree in front of you). Look for where the pathway leads into a cavern under Taloc.

Here you will find Lothas, the entry NPC for Taloc’s Hollow.

Getting to Taloc’s Hollow in Gelkmaros

Head North from Gelkmaros Fortress, following the path.

Take a left into the Krug Basin and look out over the canyon. Looking down, you will notice a path on the right that ends at the canyon side.

You should be able to see the entrance and its two glowing yellow orbs from here. Glide down to the pathway and speak with Taloc’s Guardian to enter the instance.

Taloc’s Hollow Guide

Taloc’s Hollow is a solo instance introduced in Assault on Balaurea. Both Inggison and Gelkmaros have an entrance and it is available to characters from levels 51 to 55. Elyos will have to travel to Taloc’s Forest, located in the Southwestern part of the Inggison map and speak with Lothas. Asmodians can find their entrance within the Krug Basin by speaking to Taloc’s Guardian. Upon entering, two items will be placed in your inventory: Taloc Fruit and Taloc’s Tears. Taloc’s Hollow is not a very difficult instance as long as you do not allow yourself to get overwhelmed. You will face multiple mobs at a time and if you are not careful, you may find you’ve taken on too much.

Tools of the Instance

Taloc’s Hollow gives players many different tools to help them through the instance. Some of these, such as Taloc Fruit and Taloc’s Tears, will appear in your inventory immediately upon entering the instance. Others will need to be found throughout the instance.

Taloc Fruit (Massive HP & MP buff) Using the Taloc Fruit raises your maximum HP by 90,000 and maximum MP by 40,000. This buff is a vital part of the Taloc’s Hollow instance due to the sheer number of elite monsters you will be facing at once. The effect lasts for 2 hours and is only active within the instance. The fruit itself has a 20 minute cool down so if your buff runs out before you are finished with the instance, you can easily reapply it. Taloc Fruit will be applied to your inventory when you zone into Taloc’s Hollow.

Taloc’s Tears (AoE Damage, 10 sec CD) The Taloc’s Tears item is a powerful weapon only usable within Taloc’s Hollow. It unleashes an area of effect attack that deals 5000 damage to all nearby enemies. There is only a 10 second cool down for using this item and it remains in your inventory for 2 hours, so be sure to use it often. Using this item is also part of the main Taloc’s Hollow campaign quest. Taloc’s Tears shares the same cool down time as Shishir’s Powerstone and will be applied to your inventory when you zone into Taloc’s Hollow.

Shishir’s Powerstone (Single Target Damage, 10 sec CD) This item is the first that you will receive off of a named monster within Taloc’s Hollow. Shishir’s Powerstone deals 7,000 damage to a single target and has a 10 second cool down time. Shishir’s Powerstone and Taloc’s Tears share the same cool down timer. Using this item also advances the “The Struggle Within” and “With Friends Like These” quests, so be sure to pick it up off of Shishir when you defeat him.

Gellmar’s Wardstone (Self-shield, 1 min CD)
When used, Gellmar’s Wardstone will create a protective shield around you that lasts for 20 seconds and will block up to 10,000 damage. This item will come in quite handy for situations where you have no choice but to face multiple enemies at once. Gellmar’s Wardstone has a 1 minute cool down and shares the same cool down timer as Neith’s Sleepstone, so assess the situation as to which is more important for you to use. Gellmar’s Wardstone drops off of Gellmar and using it is part of the “The Struggle Within” and “With Friends Like These” quests.

Neith’s Sleepstone (AoE Sleep, 1 min CD)
This item drops off of the spider Neith and is usually the last item of power you receive in Taloc’s Hollow. Using Neith’s Sleepstone activates an area of affect ability that will put nearby enemies to sleep for 15 seconds. As with most sleep abilities, a slept target will wake up if it receives damage, so watch the usage of area of effect abilities if you wish for your enemies to nap a bit longer. Neith’s Sleepstone shares the same cool down timer as Gellmar’s Wardstone and using it is part of the “The Struggle Within” and “With Friends Like These” quests.

Healing Plant:
There are several Healing Plants scattered throughout the instance. Using these objects will restore 30,000 HP instantly. In the room before you battle Celestius, there is an empty Healing Plant station. A Huge Healing Plant will appear inside of this station when you defeat all of the enemies in the room, besides Celestius. In addition to the large amount HP recovered, the Huge Healing Plant also grants the Taloc’s Blessing buff, which will continually heal you for 3 minutes.

Taloc’s Hollow Map

Starting Out

Once inside the instance, start off by speaking to Taloc’s Soul. If this is your first time running Taloc’s Hollow, there should be a couple quests for you to pick up and complete while inside. Open up your inventory and use the Taloc Fruit item. You will need this buff in order to be successful within Taloc’s Hollow. When you are fully prepared, move forward into the first room. This room is a basic introduction to how the enemies of the instance will work. You will face mostly normal monsters with a couple of elites added on. Use your Taloc’s Tears to quickly deal with the normal monsters while you focus your attacks on the elites.

The Caccooning Chamber

Once you have defeated the monsters, progress up the hill towards the Cocooning Chamber. Here you will face Shishir who will drop two items for you; Shishir’s Corrosive Fluid and Shishir’s Powerstone. Shishir is mostly harmless, but will use an ability called Toxic Talon that will prevent you from recovering an HP for 10 seconds. Once you have defeated Shishir, you can use the Shishir’s Corrosive Fluid to dissolve one of the cocoons in the room.

Taloc’s Hollow introduces an NPC support mechanic to Aion. You can choose to free either the Templar or the Cleric, whoever fits your needs best, from the cocoons. After they are free, you may speak with them to have them join your party. They will fight along side you until you defeat Queen Mosqua or until they fall in battle. To free one of these NPCs, obtain Shishir’s Corrosive Fluid and interact with one of the cocoons. Dialogue will appear telling you which class you are currently speaking to and you can choose whether to free them or not. You may only take one of these NPCs with you per run.

Finding the Contaminated Soil

There is a repeatable quest for each race within Taloc’s Hollow where you must find Contaminated Soil. You must interact with 6 of these objects and obtain a Taloc Leaf from each. Refer to the map above for the locations of each Contaminated Soil.
>> Elyos: The Wounds of Change
>> Asmodian: Soiled Soil

Finding Gellmar

You will have to destroy the massive spider webs to gain entry to some corridors.

Gellmar has a chance to spawn in both the Muculent Grotto and The Swarmspring but finding him should not be too difficult if you are searching for the Contaminated Soil anyway. Gellmar is a large, green clodworm who is always found amongst a swarm of other clodworms. Because of this, there is very little chance you will face him alone. Be sure to take advantage of the powerful area attack of Taloc’s Tears during this battle and dispose of the other monsters as quickly as possible. Gellmar himself is not much of a fight, but he will use his Drain Moisture ability to damage you and heal himself in the process. Once he is defeated, you can pick up Gellmar’s Wardstone off of him and proceed towards Kinquid’s Den.

Kinquid’s Den

Upon entering Kinquid’s Den, you will receive a cut scene with a strategy on how to defeat him. The door behind you will close, so defeating Kinquid is your only option. Use the smoke that erupts from the geysers in the floor to removes his physical and magical barriers. The Purple Smoke will remove the magical and the Yellow Smoke will remove the physical. Kinquid will mostly use regular attacks but will occasionally cause bleeding damage or moderate physical damage with Kinquid’s Thrust or Kinquid’s Bite. He will also use an attack called Kinquid’s Blast.

Hyas

Once you have defeated Kinquid, a dialogue will pop-up talking about a movement in Taloc’s roots. Defeating Kinquid temporarily spawns a Reian Scholar named Hyas just a bit up the pathway. Hyas gives out a Mithril Coin quest for both races, but it requires you to rush to Queen Mosqua, so if this is your first run, you may want to save this quest for another time.
Proceed up the roots towards Taloc’s Boughs.

Taloc’s Boughs

Taloc’s Boughs is a winding pathway that leads to Queen Mosqua’s nest. It is filled with many enemies and pools of sticky sap that will drastically lower your movement speed. Here you will find the final 2 Contaminated Soil. Start by moving up the winding pathway, defeating the insects as you go. Very soon into your journey, you will happen across the first incline of the boughs. To the left you will see the entrance to the Klawtira Broodlair. You will find your 5th Contaminated Soil in this small enclave. Moving further up the pathway, you will run into the Funglesodden Grove. The final Contaminated Soil is in this area as well as another Healing Plant.

Taloc’s Tears

Taloc’s Tears is the final stretch before reaching Queen Mosqua’s nest. Taloc’s Knot can be found in the very beginning part of this area and as you progress up the pathway, you will run into Neith, the keeper of the final Object of Power of the instance. Neith will also drop an object called Dorkin’s Pocket Knife. This knife is the key to a secret door hidden behind the nearby waterfall.

Behind it, you will find Dorkin’s Nook, home to a recluse Shulack merchant. You will need to speak with him to progress the “The Shulack of Taloc” and “A Shulack’s Story” quests, but Dorkin also has an object of interest in his room. You can purchase a Shulack Hatchet from Dorkins shop if you want to take a gamble as to what may be inside the Golden Egg of Mutant Insect that lies in a nest next to him. The egg can contain very valuable manastones and enchantment stones, but it could also net you a loss as the Shulack Hatchet costs nearly 100,000 kinah. Open it up if you’re feeling lucky!

Just a short way up the path is the entrance to Mosqua’s Nest.

Mosqua’s Nest

There are two objects of importance within Mosqua’s Nest: Queen Mosqua herself and the very large egg in the center of the room. The egg covers a large Air Current that you will need to use in order to reach Taloc’s Heart and the lair of Celestius. Before you can access this air current, you must destroy the egg that is blocking it and in order to do that, Queen Mosqua must first be defeated.

The most difficult part of fighting Queen Mosqua is the sheer number of potential adds that can join the fight. There are many Supraklaw within the room and they will assist Queen Mosqua if they are too close to the battle. In addition, Mosqua will use an ability called Spawn Eggs. Destroy these eggs as soon as possible as they will turn into Supraklaw if they are left alone for too long. Finally, during the course of the battle, she will use an ability called Queen’s Welcoming which will summon a weaker clone of Mosqua. This summoned monster is also an elite and will assist the rest of the fight.

Once you have defeated Queen Mosqua, you will receive a system message saying that cracks have formed on her egg. You can now destroy it and access the Air Current it is blocking. Jump up and open your wings while within the Air Current to elevate yourself into Taloc’s Heart where Celestius awaits.

Taloc’s Heart

Taloc’s Heart is the final room of the Taloc’s Hollow instance. In here you will find many Komad as well as the final boss, Celestius. You do not need to defeat all of the Komad in the room as they will not follow you down to where you will face Celestius, but defeating all of them does have an advantage. Once all of the Komad are defeated, a Huge Healing Plant will appear. Using this item will not only heal you for a large amount, but it will also apply a 3 minute heal over time buff called Taloc’s Blessing.

If you choose to defeat all of the Komad, there are tools at your disposal to make the job easier. Around the room you will find several Concentrated Sap. Destroying these saps will cause a high amount of damage to the monsters around it but be aware that killing the Komad in this way will result in little to no XP. When finished, Celestius awaits you in Blightroot, but beware, once you drop down into this area, you can no longer go back into any other part of Taloc’s Hollow.

Blightroot

Blightroot is where Celestius has taken over Taloc. One other point of interest in this room is the Taloc Research Diary that is laying on the ground next to Celestius. You will need this for the “The Lost Tome” and “What Book?” quests, so make sure you grab it before you exit the instance if you have the corresponding quest.

Celestius is the final boss of Taloc’s Hollow. He will start using his Spore Shower skill early in the fight, which will poison you but is otherwise not very damaging. Also watch out for his Grasping Tendrils skill, which will lift you into the air and slam you to the ground. Players can use their Remove Shock ability to escape the stumble effect of this skill, but the damage of it will still be received.

Once Celestius has fallen, Taloc’s Mirage will appear. Through him, you can turn in some of your quests as well as leave the instance

Chantra Dredgion Boarding, Walktrough, Quests And Named Monsters

2010-10-08T00:09:00.000-07:00

Assault on Balaurea introduces the Chantra Dredgion, a new PvP Battleground Instanced Dungeon for Daevas levels 51-55. While the Chantra Dredgion introduces new Monsters, Quests, and rewards, it is similar to the 46-50 Dredgion Battleground, which has been renamed the Baranath Dredgion to avoid confusion.

The Chantra Dredgion is accessible at three different times each day:

Between 12:00 AM and 2:00 AM
Between 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM
Between 8:00 PM and 10:00 PM

**Note that times are based on server time, not game time.

The Dredgion is one of the most efficient places to earn Abyss Points, and players can also earn Platinum Medals and Gold Medals through Quests. While it’s possible to enter the Chantra Dredgion at level 51, all monsters inside the Chantra Dredgion are level 55, thus, the Battleground is recommended for Daevas 53-55.

There are three different types of Entry Requests: Private Entry, Quick Entry, and Group Entry.

Request entry to the Chantra Dredgion from anywhere!

Click “Private Entry” to queue up to enter the next available Dredgion Battleground as a single player.

Click “Quick Entry” to queue up to enter the next available Dredgion Battleground as a single player, even if it’s already in progress.

Click “Group Entry” to queue up to enter the next available Dredgion Battleground as a Group.

Even if players opt for “Private Entry” or “Quick Entry”, a Group will form automatically.

Dredgion Wait Time

When Requesting “Private Entry” or “Quick Entry”, there is a short waiting period while the server creates a suitable Group. The Group must contain at least one Chanter or Cleric, and each Group must have over five members.

If a Group that meets these conditions cannot be created, there is a maximum wait period of 30 minutes. However, during ideal conditions, Group creation takes only 1-5 minutes.

Chantra Dredgion Walkthrough

The Chantra Dredgion is a PvP Instanced Dungeon where Daevas of both races compete against each other.

Each side earns points for defeating certain Monsters, demolishing Surkana and other objects, or killing Daevas of the opposing faction.

When the Battleground ends, the side with the most points is declared the victor, though both sides will be rewarded with Abyss Points and will have the opportunity to complete Quests.

Surkana

Demolish the Surkana for some serious pointage!

Surkana are placed all over the Dredgion, and the faction that destroys the most Surkana tends to win the battle. Players can gain 400-1,100 points per Surkana destroyed.

Surkana only suffer 1 point of damage from each attack, and also provide significant buffs to monsters within a 20m radius. It’s important to defeat the monsters nearby before taking on the Surkana.

When a Surkana is destroyed, the room in which it was contained changes color on the Battleground map (Green for Elyos, and Blue for Asmodian). These color changes make it easier to track enemy movement and the progression of the battle.

Points Earned from Monsters

Monster	Points
Normal Rank 5	12
Elite Rank 3	32
Elite Rank 5	42
Hookmatan	500
Captain Zanata/Officer Kamanya	1,000
Windfinder Kumar/Rajaya the Inquisitor	0

In addition to demolishing Surkana, players gain points for defeating Monsters. Most monsters give 12-42 points, but certain Named Monsters can yield as many points as a Surkana.

It’s worth noting that the rare spawn Named Monsters which drop Heroic and Fabled accessories (Windfinder Kumar and Rajaya the Inquistor) do not provide points when defeated.

Balaur Weapon Chests

Destroy the Balaur Weapon Chests to complete Quests and earn points

There are six weapon chests located near the Chantra Dredgion entrance, and each chest awards 100 points if destroyed.

These chests are also related to Quests for both Elyos and Asmodians.

Battle, Death, and Penalties

Battle and Death

Death during a Dredgion battle causes the defeated player’s Group to lose 60 points.

If defeated by the Balaur, the 60 points are lost, but if defeated by a player of the opposing race, the 60 points are lost and 60 points are added to the opposing Group’s total point score.

Points earned from defeating Daevas of the opposing faction are not added if the opposing faction has zero points. Thus, if one dominant Group wipes out a Group of the opposing race, and the opposing race’s total points are zero, the dominant Group does not receive additional points.

When death occurs in the Chantra Dredgion, there is no EXP or AP loss. Players will revive in the starting area with 100% HP and MP.

Point Difference Penalties

In order to prevent exploitation, when there is a large point difference between two Groups, penalties are applied to the winning Group.

If the point difference exceeds 1,000, the losing Group receives 1.5x more points for killing Daevas of the winning Group. If the point difference exceeds 3,000, the losing Group receives 10x more points for killing Daevas of the winning Group.

Traversing the Chantra Dredgion

There are several protective shields which block paths to different areas of the Chantra Dredgion. Some of the shields can be demolished with powerful attacks, while others require keys obtained from Named Monsters.
Understanding the locations of the shields and teleportation devices aboard the Chantra Dredgion is central to developing effective tactics.

With that knowledge, one Group can block enemies from advancing, or mobilize faster to take important objectives.

This map shows the Chantra Dredgion’s shields and blockades, as well as the corresponding

Shield Generator or the NPC (Gatekeeper Sarta) that carries the key

Bulkhead

These shields are activated by the Chantra Sentinel when first encountered at the beginning of the battle. These shields block the entrance from the Armories to Gravity Control, and can be demolished with attacks, but also have a significant amount of health. Groups often opt to move around the shields instead of demolishing them.
It’s worth noting that after a certain amount of time has passed, Officer Kamanya spawns in the Gravity Control room, and gives 1,000 points when defeated. There is also a chance that Rajaya the Inquisitor, a Hero grade Named Monster, will spawn. Rajaya the Inquisitor has a chance to drop Fabled and Heroic accessories.

Defense Shield Generator

When the Defense Shield Generator on the Weapons Deck or Lower Weapons deck is demolished, a shield appears in Ready Room 1 or 2. This shield blocks access to the center of the Chantra Dredgion. The Ready Room is the shortest route to the center of the Dredgion, and the quickest route to the opposing race’s area.

Different tactics can be used in this area to maximize the Group’s accumulation of points. For example, if one Group decides to destroy the opposing Group’s Shield Generator, it will make it difficult for the opposing Group to reach the center of the Dredgion.

In some cases, it might wiser for one Group to destroy their own Defense Shield Generator, and delay engagement with the opposing race in order to accumulate more points.

Captain’s Cabin Passage

There are paths to the left and right of the Captain’s Cabin’s on the second floor, but the doors are blocked. These doors cannot be demolished, and can only be opened with a key dropped by a specific Named Monster.

Groups desiring the Captain’s Cabin Passage Key will need to defeat Gatekeeper Sarta in the center of the Dredgion. Only one Group can loot the key.

Chantra Dredgion Teleportation Devices

There are numerous teleportation devices located inside the Chantra Dredgion.

These teleportation devices allow players to teleport to different areas of the Dredgion with ease. The Supply Room Teleporter and the Central Teleporter are located in the Escape Hatch where the Group begins the battle.

The Captain’s Cabin Teleport Device is located just beyond the Barracks, and can make reaching Captain Zanata much easier.

Locations of Teleport Paths

Supply Room Teleporter	This teleporter activates after the destruction of the Teleporter Generator in the Barracks.
Central Teleporter	This teleporter activates 10 minutes after the Instanced Dungeon has begun.
Captain’s Cabin Teleport Device	This teleporter activates when Sahadena the Abettor is defeated in the Barracks. Only the race that defeated Sahadena the Abettor can use this teleporter.

Chantra Dredgion Quests

Each race has 5 Quests that can be completed aboard the Chantra Dredgion, of which 4 are Repeatable Quests for Abyss Points and Medals.

Most Quests can be completed during the normal progression of the instance, so it’s a good idea to pick them up before jumping in!

Elyos Quests

Yannis in Inggison offers most of the

Chantra Dredgion Quests

The most important Elyos Quests are [Group] My New Toy, [Group] Obtain the Balaur Supplies, and [Group] My Lucky Number. These Repeatable Quests are simple to complete, and can even be finished by the losing race. It’s a good idea to have these Quests in the Quest Log before boarding the Chantra Dredgion.
In addition to the above Repeatable Quests, there is the [Group] Dredgion Blues Quest which provides Platinum Medals as a reward. This Quest requires numerous Named Monsters be slain, as well as a rare spawn Named Monster, so it can be a challenge to complete

Asmodian Quests

Yorgen in Gelkmaros offers most of the

Chantra Dredgion Quests

The most important Asmodian Quests are [Group] New Weapon Test, [Group] Seize the Balaur Supplies, and [Group] Ceaseless Attack. These Repeatable Quests are simple to complete, and can even be finished by the losing race. It’s a good idea to have these Quests in the Quest Log before boarding the Chantra Dredgion.
In addition to the above Repeatable Quests, there is the [Group] Balaur Agent Assassination Quest which provides Platinum Medals as a reward. This Quest requires numerous Named Monsters to be slain, as well as a rare spawn Named Monster, so it can be a challenge to complete.

Chantra Dredgion Named Monsters

Named Monsters

The blue circles on the map above are the locations of Rajaya the Inquisitor and Windfinder Kumar

Rajaya the Inquisitor and Windfinder Kumar are rare spawn Named Monsters that have a chance to appear aboard the Chantra Dredgion. Both are Hero grade Named Monsters, and have a chance to drop Heroic and Fabled grade accessories.


Rajaya the Inquisitor	Windfinder Kumar

Quest Named Monsters

The white circles on the map above represent the locations of Quest Named Monsters. These monsters

drop Balaur Insignia, and there is one located in each room

Unlike the other Quest Named Monsters, Skyguard Parishka and Quartermaster Bhati are not guaranteed to spawn. When these Quest Named Monsters do spawn, Skyguard Parishka appears on The Bridge, while Quartermaster Bhati appears at the Primary Armory or Backup Armory.

Point Named Monsters

The red circles on the map above represent the locations of Point Named Monsters

The Point Named Monsters are worth a massive amount of points, almost as much as demolishing a Surkana. Defeating Captain Zanata ends the battle regardless of how much time is left.

Named Monster	Spawn Location	Spawn Requirements	Points
Captain Zanata	Captain’s Cabin	Destroy 5 Surkana	1,000 Points
Hookmatan	The Bridge	(none)	500 points
Officer Kamanya	Gravity Control	10-15 Minutes Elapsed	1,000 Points

Key Keepers and Teleporter Guardians

The green circles on the map above represent the locations of Named Monsters that will

grant access to different areas of the Chantra Dredgion

Obtain the Captain’s Key by killing Gatekeeper Sarta. The Captain’s Key opens the door to the Captain’s Cabin.
Killing Sahadena the Abettor grants access to a teleporter that goes to the second floor of the Captain’s Cabin.

Full Steel Rake Guide, Instance, Bosses, Epic Repetable Quests And Strategies

After the Cataclysm, the Abyss formed and everything changed. Within that vastness, some Shugos became more aggressive-- warriors rather than merchants. They call themselves Shulacks. A particularly fierce band of Shulacks formed the Steel Rake Pirates and call the pirate ship Steel Rake home. Enjoy new adventures in this instance with a rescue operation, espionage, and more!
This is a party instance where up to six people in the group can enter at a time, every six hours.

Steel Rake has some access quests:

1. Suspicious Shugo
- Find Roikinerk and investigate who he is.

- Roikinerk appears in three different areas in Heiron: Along the road from the south end of Black Tears Swamp to Patema Ruins, the road through Orton Farm into Medeus Manor East, and the road in the very northwest corner of the zone west of Lepharist Research Center. His route and times appear to be random.

o 7am - 3pm he will be at the spawn point south of the Decayed Grove

o 3pm - 11pm he will be at the spawn point in the Lepharist Research Centre

o 11pm - 7am he will be at the spawn point to the east of Orton's Farm (I suspect this is actually on the other side of the mountains to ortins farm, close the shugo campsite)

After talking to Roikinerk you're get another quest:

2. Price of Goodwill

Roikinerk will teleport you into the brig inside Steel Rake. Talk to Haorunerk, then click on the backpack in the corner to get the teleport scroll to get you to Black Cloud Island!

Boss, Tips, Triks And Strategies

You can exit and re-enter by clicking on the anchor for up to 5 hours from your initial entry without worry, but after 5 hours if you need to leave (for a turn-in, for instance) be sure to leave at least one player inside to hold the instance open.

Also, treasure keys obtained in the instance are "notkeep-able". If the player holding them exits the zone they vanish, so be sure any keys are held by someone that does not need to leave the ship for turn-ins. Most, if not all, door keys are "keep-able".
The treasure keys should not be confused with the door keys, which drop from most named mobs in the zone and are required to progress.These do NOT vanish if you zone. This is very important, as it is wise to get the key from the Engineer once, then do NOT unlock the steam tunnel to the Upper Deck. Instead, exit and save this key. In this way, ever after, you can easy-mode the Engineer by pulling him into the Steam Tunnel!

The Airship is divided into three decks, Middle Deck, Lower Deck, and Upper Deck. Your point of entry is the Stern of the Middle Deck.

Middle Deck

The middle deck only has a couple of bosses (and a rare spawn you'll probably never see) and the amount of trash between each one doesn't exactly make this deck worth doing more than a few times for quests. Also, there isn't much variety with the mobs within the ship; you'll see the same few types the entire time. But, personally, pirate rodents never really get old, especially with those mustaches they sport so finely.

The two main bosses you'll face aboard the middle level are a little more involved than any previous bosses you've probably run across in the game.

Madame Bovariki

The first of which being Madame Bovariki. This rotund beauty will be found hiding behind a bar in a large room with a catwalk circling above. The fight isn't too complicated, but there are a couple things to note. *Firstly, she casts an area of effect daze that can either be ranged or line of sighted.

*This ability makes the fight troublesome for any melee classes you've brought along.

*Though ranged can easily avoid it.

*If you throw yourself at Bovariki ill prepared then the daze can really cause some issues.

*Since the tank can be dazed out of line of sight, healers should really be on their toes so they can slip in with any quick heals.

*The real fun begins at 50% though, when Madame Bovariki summons a level 50 cat to assist her. The beast of a kitty can't be crowd controlled or slowed and on top of that she hits like a truck. You can try to have someone offtank it or have the tank hold both, but in all likelihood the kitty will just run around and eat things.

Since the few things she drops aren't that great, normally I'd recommend skipping annoying bosses like this.

But Aion Mid-Deck Steel Rake has another trick up its wooden sleeve. To progress through the instance you need to kill specific key bearing mobs, of which our rotund friend is one of. For almost every other key holder, this is of little consequence since they're little more than minibosses worth a little more experience. Madame Bovariki, however, is an exception to this rule. She's a road block in every sense.

Once you've overcome that hurdle, it's not far until the next one. This hurdle, however, is not in the form of a boss. As you make your way to the end of the catwalk above Bovariki, you will find a nice little platforming death trap. Calling it a death trap is probably a little hyperbolic, but you'd be surprised how many people miss a jump and tumble to their untimely demise at the hands of the mobs below.

There's one final challenge before the main boss. As you make your way further into the instance up and down some ramps you'll come to an area that triggers a short timer. When this timer begins, you must hurry into the next room where a chest can be found with a key inside of it that will open a treasure chest at the end of the instance once the main boss has been slain.

Now that your group has stumbled their way past the jumps (or cleared it with ease if you have half a brain and breathe through your nose rather than your mouth), there's only about 20 minutes of trash until you get to the last boss, which is a giant Manduri.

Golden Eye Mantutu

The monkey boss is a relatively simple fight, the key to success is correct and swift operation of the levers that remove buffs from the boss. At this time I am only aware of one strategy for the fight, others may exist, very over leveled groups (49+) may even choose to ignore the "food" buff as the tank will be sufficiently robust, and Cleric heals large enough to overcome the monkey's increased damage.
On thing to note, there is another mob in the room with the monkey, his trainer, this mob is non aggro unless attacked, and throughout the fight will announce the monkeys buffs. If he is killed the group will have to rely on looking at the monkey's buffs to determine which levers need activating.

During the fight levers will appear around the room, food levers on the right of the room as you enter, water levers on the left of the room. Throughout the fight the monkey will gain Thirsty and Hungry buffs activating the appropriate lever will remove the buff from the monkey. It takes 3 players to activate one lever, and this role is best assigned to ranged DPS, the tank and healer will probably be too busy to help activate levers, and melee will be slowed, impairing their ability to get to the lever in time. It is of course possible for melee to help on levers in melee heavy groups, and when the levers appear near the monkey the may be closer than ranged.
Activating levers takes priority over DPS and must be attended to immediately, the monkey can 2-shot some tanks while hungry.

Monkey abilities:
"Hunger" A buff that significantly increases the monkeys damage, on a level 40 tank he will easily hit the tank for 40% HP. This will be announced by the the trainer as as "he wants something delicious". This is removed by activating a Food Device Lever.

"Thirsty" A buff that places a protective shield on the monkey reducing damage of all attacks against him to one. This will be announced by the the trainer as as "he wants something refreshing". This is removed by activating a Water Device Lever.
Frontal cone area attack, the monkey needs to be tanked facing away from the group and players should avoid moving in front of the monkey, he uses this attack throughout the fight.
*AoE fear, a close range fear (15 meters or so) that lasts about five seconds, only cast later on in the fight.
*AoE damage/knockdown, this only occurs infrequently after 50% HP
*Positioning:- The tank should engage the monkey by running through him, until the tank is against the back wall of the room, this will prevent the tank moving out of range of healing when feared, and face the monkey away from the party. The cleric should stand in the middle of the room at maximum heal range from the tank. Melee should stand behind the monkey and ranged towards the middle of the room.

I found it useful to put a red or blue brand on a reliable ranged lever operator, this marked player should keep an eye out for the positions where the levers appear and keep a eye on the trainers emotes/monkey buffs to determine which lever to move to. This will make it easier for the other lever operators to see where to go to, improving reaction times and reducing confusion
It is possible for the monkey to have both Food and Water buffs at the same time, food should always be dealt with before water, the food buff will kill your tank, while the water buff will just make the fight take longer.

Healing method:
Healing is fairly simple in this fight, just make sure the tank is kept topped up, save fast heals for dealing with spike damage if the lever operators are a bit slow. If the monkey buff is up for a long time it is almost impossible to out heal the damage if you are not high level.
Keep an eye out for the AOE damage towards the end of the fight and use Healing Wind as required.
None of the debuffs cast on your party are dispellable, so don't bother attempting dispels.

The middle level of Aion Steel Rake is really only the beginning, the second half of the instance is far superior to the first--there are more bosses and less trash between them. Chances are the lower and upper levels are the ones that will keep you coming back to Steel Rake if not just for your advanced stigma quest a level 45.

Lower Deck

The lower deck begins unspectacularly enough; once you've clicked the elevator switch you find yourself teleported somewhere below deck in a hole. You won't have to wait long for your first chance at a rare spawn. In the center of one of the first rooms is a Genie's Cauldron where a Freed Genie can be floating around in circles.

Beyond that, this level of Steel Rake Aion doesn't provide much excitement for a while with the exception of a few key mobs, which are little more than trash mobs. After a pretty hefty chunk of trash clearing, you'll finally come to the prison area, a large room with a lot of happenings. If you take the time to investigate each of the cells in the area you will find quest mobs, captured prisoners worth decent AP, treasure chests and a beautiful damsel in distress.

There are three mobs of interest in this area, the first being the Warden. He's basically just a tank 'n spank with a couple of Tog adds that are of little consequence. The other is Timid Alakin, a simple key keeper. He's important though because he holds the key to the Big Brig Cell in the center. The brig contains a random spawn, it can range between a worthless normal monster to a hero.

Once you clear the brig, the next stop is Engineer Lahulahu,

who sits, after a fair bit of trash, at the end of this leg of the Aion Steel Rake Instance. This battle, though long, is all about positioning; it takes place in a large room with many valves that spout noxious gasses, they may want to be avoided. If you're not careful you'll find yourself obliterated by the gas, since they stack and if you're standing too close to too many spouts, you'll be vaporized.
The best way to counteract this pain and suffering is for the tank to position itself in the corner, between the wall and the glowing broiler. The rest of the group positions themselves across from the engineer and tank at the next closest broiler.

Because of the AoE damage from both the room and the boss, melee DPS has to be very careful with the engineer or they will meet a most untimely demise only to be resurrected multiple times and meet that untimely demise again and again. We normally just have them stay out and use their bows.

Engineer abilities:

"Iron fist":- deals approx 2k damage to your tank and is always followed by "Iron Leg kick" deals approx 3k damage to all in 15 meters and knocks them down, it is essential that your healers are outside of this range or the knockdown will interrupt healing, causing a wipe. This ability will be a test of your melee's movement abilities, your healer cannot take much time out from healing the tank, and a melee who fails to move away once he sees Iron Fist, will most likely die from accumulated damage, if the healer switches to heal the melee individually, a wipe is a high possibility due to spike damage killing tank.
"Activate Steam Vent" is an occasional AoE causing 3000 damage, melee need to have heal serums ready for this, and should go and wait with ranged for AOE healing after vent if the healer can't bring them back to full HP.

"Pincer" the tank will be lifted into the air by the boss, causing damage and incapacitating the tank for a short while (tank must use Steel Wall Defense )
Periodically the vents on the floor will release pink gas, a few seconds after the gas is released, damage will be dealt to all in 12.5 meters range of the vent by a short duration DoT. Initial damage 500 HP per tick, <25% damage 1000 HP per tick.
Later on in the fight 75%/50%/25% the damage from the vents will increase, and the frequency of vents will increase. It is strongly recommended that DP skills/long CD skills are saved for the last 25% to burn down the boss ASAP before your healer becomes overwhelmed with damage.

At various points in the fight the boss will run off and turn on valves positioned on the columns around the room, do not chase the boss, he will return to the tank once he has turned the valve on.

Once you've vanquished your foe, the nearby door can be opened which leads to a large anchor that can be clicked on in order to port up.

Upper Deck

If you look around you'll notice just how open this area is and how there are mobs covering the entire thing. Your primarily goal going into this part of the instance is to track down a pair of pirates that can spawn in two different locations, the first of which being just off to the left of where you emerged from.
The second is across the deck on the far side; this one is obviously the longer of the two to clear to. Regardless of where they end up spawning, a decent chunk of the mobs on the main deck need to be killed in order to secure the area. Once you've figured out where the two named pirates are, you can mosey on over and pull them together, while keeping one of them controlled. They die easily enough and you can loot a flint off them.

As expected, this flint is used to light something; and that something just happens to be the nearby cannon. Just as expected, the cannon is used to obliterate the large cluster of mobs that have been looming ominously at the base of the large stairs. Be on your toes though, the obliteration of said mobs triggers a small little boss, Chief Mate Menekiki

to spawn. His threat radius is ginormous, so if you're anywhere near the stairs he'll probably already be headed in your direction, little monkey pal in tow. Fret not, though, he poses little threat, so just whack him, grab his key, and continue on.

Up the stars and next to the entrance to this area is the door that leads into the next room. Once you've opened it and peered down the stairs, be on the lookout for raiders that are lying in stealth waiting to pounce you like a cougar. In the center of this room is a ramp that leads down into yet another room. This entire small section takes only a small amount of time and you should be able to weave through many of the mobs without aggravating them. Before long, you will find yourself at a doorway leading to the next boss,
Chief GunnerKoakoa

This is a fairly easy fight, but if you don't have any idea of what's to come, chances are you will die pretty quickly when the time comes. Firstly though, upon entering the room--don't move, there are spawns to the left and right and since you are temporarily invisible after teleporting, they aren't much of an issue... unless you move. As for the boss, occasionally he will spawn dozens of bombs all around the room, colossal ones and tiny ones. As their names imply, the colossal ones will cause more damage than a few missing toes. The tiny ones still hurt, but won't blow your face off like the others, but if you do happen to be caught by two tiny bombs--it's lights out as they hit for 3500 damage I believe. The bombs can be targeted and attacked and the tiny ones drop fast. The strategy I've always used for this fight is for the group to stand at the entrance of the room and when Koakoa does his bomb thing one person chooses a tiny bomb for everyone to stand on and destroy while avoiding all other bombs. This chosen bomb is normally one just to the left or the right of the boss, who is invulnerable to attacks during this time. Because of the nature of the fight, it can be a little on the longer side as Koakoa is invulnerable for much of the battle. Assuming that none of your group members are bomb-huggers, the fight should go off without a hitch, though.

Once Koakoa has been dealt with, you can exit this room and proceed further. There is a second clickable cannon up the hallway to the right. You now have two options on how to go about getting to this cannon. The first and safest of which is to clear the area, which is simple enough. The second and more haphazard but ultimately more fun method is to make a mad rush for the cannon and to click it, launching you and your friends across the deck to the next area before any of the mobs can figure out what the hell just happened.

Once everyone has flown their way across the deck and after clearing a marginal amount of trash, the final boss of the instance awaits, Brass-Eye Grogget

It is believed by many that Grogget is practically impossible to kill in his current state for anyone other than a group of decently geared 50s. And at 50, I don't see many people, present company included, who would be interested in Aion Steel Rake. Basically though, this is an add fight and an AoE damage fight. Grogget will frequently spawn groups of elite adds with increasing difficulty. Right now, those adds will overwhelm you rather quickly. But I assume once his difficulty has been scaled back the fight will be tough but nothing insurmountable as it is now.
For now though, most groups just end a run after Koakoa has been killed.

Steel Rake is easily the most visually impressive instance in the game, but its length will probably cause that to grow old after only a few runs. The advanced stigma quest will keep you returning for a while to attain a semi-rare quest drop from a few of the later bosses. Ultimately, though, Steel Rake is an epic and long instance that if done from beginning to end would take the better part of a day; but is divided in a way that that's hardly necessary

*Tip-Entrance to the lab is at the very back of the research center. Enter through the gates where you found Belbua in a lab. Go right, up the stairs, then left and follow the ramp up until you see a big building. The entrance is to the left and back of that building.

Lepharist Secret Safe

RM-78c

3.Tissue? I Don't Even Know You!

4.What Nerison Saw Go to Nerison near Manduri Valey camp.

***From here start Second and the hardest part of Xenophon chain quests.

You need to make a group: Templar, 2 Sorcs for safe CC and damage, Cleric, Assassin for search mobs in "stealth mode" and 1 random DPS or Chanter!

5.[Spy/Group] A Suspicious Box

Nerison says that the Suspicious Box arrived at the Alquimia Stronghold. Meet the infiltrator Lethe and find out the details.

Go to Alquimia Stronghold in Beluslan through Rift who is located right in front of the Lepharist Poison Research Center in Heiron, so you need to wait for that rift to be up.

Be aware after go in Beluslan becouse is an elite populated area.Lethe is not far from rift spawn point.Talk to her and prepare for next step!

6.[Spy/Group] Suspicious Scientists You have to collect 5 Entry Permits, which only drop from the Scholars.This ia a group drop wich means after 1 Scholar kill all peoples can loot quest item.

*Tip-To find them easy type in chat "/where Alquimia Scholar" and hang around till that X apear on miniradar.

After colect them go back to Lethe.

7.[Spy/Group] The Key is the Key You have to kill a boss "Supervisor Wyrmirren" wich spawn in 6 locations but only on a bridge.Find him with quest link or typing /where Supervisor Wyrmirren and get the temple key!Now go back to Lethe!

Tip- Be Aware Of Asmos!!!!

8.[Spy/Group] The Research Journal Go in Alquimia Research Center instance and find the journal, this is the Asmodae-side equivalent of the Aetherogenetics Lab.

From Lethe you need to find a safe way, if you dont wana kill all elites around, to get at the instance gate.Once there kill the elite NPC in front of it and pass trough gates!

Next hall looks like this:

*Kill 1st patroll who straife left-right the entrance zone after that move to the LEFT side and begin to clean it all one by one!

*Kill the last elite mob (Researcher Zoiks) to get the next room key!

After you get the key need to kill the 4 MOBS near the next entrance!For this, safest way is:

-All party ppls except Templar must go in the left corner to have a good wiew to the 4 mobs and assassin get in Hide II is something bad happend!

-Templar must buf Empirean Armor and Iron Skin and go in the midle of those 4 gate mobs and agro all to the "picture spot"!After get them to the spot he must die(sacrifice) in that spot becouse after that mobs will go back to their spot without attack rest of party!

In the moment the mobs leave spot for going to their spawn spot, SORC MUST ROOT/SLLEP 2 OF THEM to keep them in the spot!(THIS AVOID FIGHTING WITH 4 ELITE AT ONCE)

After non 2 CC mobs go to the respawn point resurect templar and kill the sleeped mobs!

* After you finish with 4 mobs, assassin must go "Search eye" and open the gate becouse back the gate there are 3-4 mobs in stealth mode.Assassin must target them and templar assist him to get the target and pull one by one!After finish this Hole Path move forward!

*Next step is a litle bit hard.Party must stay in the midle of the Hole and templar must pull mobs in the next "SPOT PICTURE" to kill the without agrro others!

-First kill patrols who moving "arrows way"(not captured in picture abowe) you can see then in the mini radar when aproach to "spot to kill", pull them one by one!

-After you kill them pull mobs 1 and 2 and kill them!

-Then (IMPORTANT) assassin get again "search eye" becouse near mobs 3 and 4 there are mobs in stealth mode!Assassin target the nearst one and kite it with a bow ot templar assist him and pull (be aware of patroll 4 who moving in that hole)!

-Kill all mobs in the hole!

*Omg, is allmost finish :).Now move trough the hole and at the next forked path go right side where is the Lybrary, kill those 2 elittes near the desks and check for bookshelves with the Research Journal sticking out.

Take the journal and go sanctum by sorc's ilusion gate!

9.A Lepharist Monstrosity

1.Talk with Gerania.

2.Talk with Hygea.
3.Talk with Xenophon.
4.Talk with Nerison.

10.[Group] RM-114c this is the last part from Xenophon weapon quest series wich give you "The Gold Weapon Reward"

You must go around Asteria Fortress and infiltrare in the souround wall-caves behind the water falls to kill and collect the cells of RM-114c.Bad thing is the RM-114c have a 40 min respawn!

Congratz!!! Now go back to Xenophon and get your weapon !

Fire Temple Instance 30+

2010-02-04T06:34:00.000-08:00

Map

There is a pathway right down the middle of these spirits, but be careful not to aggro any (right or left side...walk trouh midle and be aware of "walking mob")!

The only thing excessively difficult about the fire spirits in this room is how many there are. With precision running, a group can navigate directly through the middle of the room without having to kill more than one or two of the spirits, but if you're looking to go the safer route, you can hug and follow the right wall all the way around the room. You will have a couple 3 pull mobs throughout the instance, but for the most part if you pay attention to your patrols, you can get away with 2. With a little bit of CC, you shouldn't have much of an issue.

Once you've passed the fire spirit room, you will come to a steep hill. Be aware that this is the closest area that Silver Blade Rotan will spawn and patrol, so keep that in mind while pulling mobs to fight.
Once at the base of the hill, you find yourself facing your first fork in the road. If you wish to check for Blue Crystal Molgat and Lava Gatneri, continue forward and check the two rooms before you. Lava Gatneri has a chance to drop gold rarity,(unconfirmed by anyone) so this boss is a must if you're looking for gear on these runs. To get to Kromede the Corrupt / Vile Judge Kromede, (second form of Kromede has a high drop rate, drop % for The corrupt is 1%and drop % for vile judge is 6%, means just a 5% more. Is really annoying to kill her becouse she will cast her first AOE every 30-35 until she hits 50%hp will cast it every 23-27 seconds, after she drops to 25%hp she will cast "last struggle" aoe!
), take the left path past the lava pit. Take care not to fall INTO the lava pit as there is no way out- you will have to use return and run back while your party waits.

Once around the lava pit, you will come to a hill that goes upwards. This is where you really have to begin to take caution with your pulls. At the top of the hill, you begin to have groups of two gargoyles sitting along the walls and patrolling. They are also quite fast as they are flying mobs, so if you and your group need to flee, I suggest using the hill you just came up to glide down and gain some distance from them.

From here, you can fight your way up the hill to the left to have a shot at finding Flame Branch Flavi and Black Smoke Asparn. They're a little bit out of the way, but give you more chances for armor drops and Flavi can drop a rarity.

Once back in the central room where Rotan and Sipus have the chance of being, you can continue to finish up the instance. From here, going straight will take you to Denlavis who is a chain quest NPC who has reward Hannet's Weapons
Quest 1 Hannet's Lost Love
Quest 2 [Spy/Group] Finding Denlavis (this is just a trick,is not a spy quest...just need find Denlavis and talk to him)
Quest 3 [Spy/Group] Hannet's Vengeance

Your best bet to avoid unmanageable fights is to choose the left or right pathways instead of fighting straight down the middle of her room. You are able to easily pull Kromede off to the side without the risk of aggroing anything else in the room, so use that space to your advantage.
She is scary fast and uses a bow as her main weapon. Running from her will do nothing for you. Still, you want your ranged and healers to stay back as far as they can. Kromede does powerful AoE attacks that can take down your squishier players very quickly. Have your tank stay on Kromede at all times pulling as much hate as possible. Assassins and Gladiators should run away from her when she begins to charge up these AoEs. In addition to her melee AoE attacks, she also drops a set of 3 traps that explode causing AoE damage. Have your gladiator keep an eye out for these and do an AoE of their own to take them out before they can explode. There is only one point of the fight I'd consider very dangerous and that is when Kromede reaches roughly 1/4 health. She will use her normal AoE and shortly after use a very powerful AoE called Miserable Struggle to follow up. This AoE has one-shotted people in my groups many times, so be aware of these abilities and run from them if you are not tanking. If you are the group's Templar, make sure you use your Aion Armory Spell and Aion Armory Spell about this point in the fight to ensure that you survive the hit.

Nochsana Training Camp Instance Guide

2010-02-04T02:04:00.000-08:00

Aion - Nochsana Training Camp Instance Guide (25-28,99%)

Patch 1.5, introducing the Nochsana Training Camp. NTC, is a level 25-28,99% instance. These are hard caps. Since it's in the Abyss, 25 is required, and once you hit 29, you can no longer enter it period.
One important thing to realize is that this is not a "full drop" instance. Loot will not drop off every boss or special monster as a guarantee. It is entirely possible, and even probable, that you will walk out of here with nothing new for gear. Before you throw your hands up in the air and abandon your quest however, you must realize that the experience points are gorgeous from this instance. With a party of 25-26s, you will be getting over 25,000 per elite monster kill. If you pre-ordered or recently completed a survey for a Lodas' amulet, this is the time to use it. On a full clear of the zone, running at a reasonable rate so the majority of your kills are with the amulet on, you will likely roll out with 70-80% of a level's worth of experience. It's incredible and should be run every day you can do it. There is a lockout period(18h) of a little under a day after you complete it, and three quests that will be done on the way that are given from an NPC near the ones that gave you your abyss training.
*Quests for NTC

1.Cut Off the Head of the Class These four enemies are all part of your path to the General for the most part.We'll make sure you don't miss them.

2.Killing the Guardian Deity General of the Training Camp Just move up to the door and deploy your weapon. A pet bar will show up and you'll have to tell it to attack. Make sure everyone deploys it and gets credit if you're doing it as a static team with your legion or something. The followup will then tell you to kill the General, which is what you came to do anyway, right?

3.Weapons Inspection These are located near the end of the instance surrounding the fortress, and lots reside inside. There are enough spawns that a full party should be able to complete it all at once.

Way to:

Check templar guide first
Check Youtube videos

Fairly straight forward.Upon entering, your party should move up either side. Patrols circle in a clockwise circle on the outer ring. Mark them and make your party aware as soon as they enter your line of sight.Typically they consist of two elites or one elite and a pack of Recruits, which barely pose a threat at all. There are drakes in the middle that can be totally ignored or grabbed for bonus experience.

Pull slowly and steadily. Before you reach the first gate, you'll see an artifact structure directly to the right of the first fortress gate. The first boss type is here for the quest, and he's a caster. Watch for large spikes of damage on your tank, and you can use the artifact to your advantage if you must. It'll create a damage shield for 60 seconds on your whole party that can soak up a lot of punishment. You can use it and then get dirty with a double pull for a little more thrill and AoE carnage.

Past the second gate is more of the same, but atop that second gate lies the third boss. His physical output is laughable, but he has an amazingly powerful stone-skin type damage shield. Whittle him down over time before he can recast it. Right up the ramp to the third gate is the 3rd boss, a Drake. All of his damage is single target except for one wide blast that will hit the whole party for about 1000. Your cleric can take care of this easily with a Healing Wind, so don't panic and start using potions. Nothing else he does will hit people beyond the tank, so waste this fool. Reports are mixed about his fire attack being cone-based so you could dodge it if you were behind him. I wouldn't bother.

Once you get to the gate, resist the urge to run up and bash the hell out of it with your bare hands. Actually, do it once. Fisticuffs have a great animation in this that you'll never get a good chance to see otherwise. If you have a lot of people looking to complete the Weapons quest, as you pull the outside of the fortress, look for the caches lining the walls. Once everything is clear, activate your siege weapons around melee distance with the gate if you have them and let rip. Then perhaps most importantly, get back. Everyone needs to stand back as upon the door falling, at least two elites will rush out to engage you and they're likely to get company on the way. Make sure your cleric has Rebirth up, if there is any threatening point of this instance, it's this pull. Handle them as they come out with crowd control and engage them around the corner of the gate.

Now, you have to clear the entire fortress out. Anything left alive will come running when the General is engaged, so don't even think about going up that ramp. Once the ground floor is clear, work your way up the ramp on the right side. By now you'll notice the weapon caches are liberally spread throughout this portion of the fortress. In this area you'll also find Nochsana Docs, which are healer types and should be dealt with first or last if good crowd control is available. Clear the area above the gate, as well as the bridge over the middle of the room. At the highest point in the back corner you'll find the last of the bosses for the quest. He'll summon help, but the help will vanish upon his death. Unload everything before the add goes for your healer and things get ugly. Do a quick survey around the fortress to ensure it's fully cleared, and pull the last two in front of the general.It's go time, people
As intimidating as he looks, he's not that bad. His melee attacks consist of a smash that lowers physical defense and can be dispelled, and a wide area knockdown. His damage is rather high, so clerics will have to be on their toes. Ranged classes have next to nothing to worry about. Once he gets below 30%, he'll start using a fear move that will cause a random person to lose control for a few seconds. Templars should have Empyrean Armor saved for this in case the healer gets feared and things get ugly. Where you tank him is pretty irrelevant. Once he's dead, you'll get credit for the second part of the siege quest. His loot table consists of a wide array of blue weapons, high quality stuff that will take you into the 30's easily.

Unfortunately, that's if he drops them.

You'll be running this multiple times, and you have a time limit of sorts due to the level cap. This is without a doubt the fastest thing you can do to level though, and groups will be continuously springing up for NTC due to that. It's a good primer for how a fortress siege works, well, aside from the whole 'no enemy players in the area'. The quests will give you a huge infusion of XP and a fantastic helm that will carry you through the mid 30's with ease. Just remember that you're not doing it for the loot. There are repeatable instances in the low-mid 30's that will provide you with much more loot opportunity than here. I personally got more loot out of Tavan's Cavern than here, but a third of the experience in the process. Regardless the Nochsana Training Camp is your easy ticket if you don't want to grind out 25-29. So set that looking for group tag and brave the spammers to ride the fast track to lvl 30!
