Many type 7/8 augments from Torment of Velious, Claws of Veeshan, Terror of Luclin, Night of Shadows, Laurion's Song, and The Outer Brood have been moved off lore groups onto lore-equip groups.

Added a meta achievement for completing all live events for the year. This achievement will be updated throughout the year as the events become available.

You will now get access to Dark Elf Rangers when consuming Tradable: The Outer Brood Expansion Ticket.

Zorinna T`Vexa in the tunnels in The Commonlands will grant the Dark Elf Ranger feature if you received The Outer Brood as a gift and that gift did not grant you the Dark Elf Ranger option.

There are now Vanity achievements for the Timewise armor sets available in Tides of Time.

A number of AA and Spells changes for multiple classes.

Removed The Outer Brood expansion requirement from the Special AA, Aureate's Bane. The AA can still only be used in The Outer Brood zones but no longer blocks the achievement rewards from being accepted.

Added a new 0 cost Mercenary AA, Defy the Aureate, that makes mercenaries immune to all ranks of the Curse of Subjugation debuff.

New ranks of the Special AAs, Hero's Vitality, Hero's Fortitude, and Hero's Resolution, added for The Outer Brood are now persona shared.

Merchants now include deity restrictions when you ask them to 'show only items I can use'.

The Activated Item Keyring's maximum number of slots has been increased to 500.

Added the 'prochold' pet command which can be toggled to prevent your primary pet from triggering procs from their weapons, armor, or buffs.

Added a new slash command, /queuemelody. This command is similar to /melody except it plays songs in priority order depending on the song's recast time, your current buffs, and your target's current debuffs. The earlier a song is in the list, the higher priority it is.

Tides of Time: Players can no longer place a banner or campfire in the tower.

Hero of the Harbinger's Cradle: Brood Architect Hazuri

From Alchemist Balino Frugrin in The Theater of Eternity, key word 'group.'

120724

Complete the listed Mission.

Base Strategy: Patience! Fight at / under Brood Architect Hazuri, near the wall. Kill the initial four (4) adds. Let the thank DPS Brood Architect Hazuri (no DoT's) and immediately kill all adds that appear (you can't kill the oozes... adds are at about 90, 80, 70, 60, 55, 50, 40, 35, 30, 25, 20, 15, 10 & 5). Off tank or kill Atathus, the Red Lord when he aggros. When a dripping greenish puddle appears, everyone MUST immediately get in the green aura that accompanies it (if not, mezzes will go out and it is likely a wipe). Ignore / heal through an oozing orange pool, a putrid purple pool & a goopy pink pool auras.

+1 AA: Hero's Fortitude

Savior of the Harbinger's Cradle: Brood Architect Hazuri

121524

+1 AA: Hero's Vitality

+1 AA: Hero's Fortitude

+1 AA: Hero's Resolution

Brood Architect Hazuri: Best for Last

121524

Do not kill either replicant until Hazuri is below 10% health.

At about 70% & 40%, Brood Architect Hazuri will spawn an a Hazuri Replicant (in addition to all the other adds). While killing all other adds and making sure to get into the green aura when it appears, Off tank both Hazuri Replicant adds until Brood Architect Hazuri is at 10% and then kill them before killing Brood Architect Hazuri.

Brood Architect Hazuri: Nobody Explodes

121524

Do not allow anyone hit by the Power of the Skyguardian to deteriorate into a Venemous Explosion.

During the event, Brood Architect Hazuri can cast 'Strength of the Skyguardian,' which is unresistable (Emote: 'Brood Architect Hazuri begins casting Strength of the Skyguardian.' & 'Venom invades your body.'). If it isn't cured within 30-Seconds (5 Tics) it will explode for additional damage. It needs to be cured before this happens by running 200 distance away from where you were, ASAP.

Brood Architect Hazuri: Everyone in the Pool

121524

Everyone must stand in a pool at the same time when Hazuri devours and egg pod.

Every 10% Brood Architect Hazuri will de-aggro, devour an egg pod (the rock-looking items with variant colored gems on them) and spawn one of  four (4) different 'goo' non-aggro MoB's and at least one (1) add  (an altered striker and / or a Hazuri Replicant and / or two (2) an unmodified experiment). Each 'goo' also has a visible aura effect around them. Have everyone immediately move to get into those auras, every time... and stay there!

Hero of The Chambers of Puissance: The Leviathan's Heart

From Master Alchemist in Chambers of Puissance, key word 'smaller.'

121724

Complete the listed Mission.

Base Strategy: Kill the three (3) MoB's that roam around the outside of the event area, just to eliminate them out of possible aggro. Mark The Custodian because he will move / port around during the event and this will make The Custodian easier to spot. Talk to a soldier to start the event and then kill the two (2) a soldier. DPS The Custodian until adds spawn. Focus on killing a dark energist & a bright energist ASAP. Heal through effects. Kill a remnant (these do not auto-aggro until after 30%, so you have to find & loot them on your own)... they drop an Improperly Formed Lens. Give priority to healers for the Improperly Formed Lens. The silence effect effect is blocked by having a Improperly Formed Lens in inventory (it will auto-expended and block the silence... so looting additional ones may be necessary). Between adds, DPS The Custodian. Keep this up until The Custodian is dead. NOTE: The health of The Custodian will lock at 2% until the last two (2) a dark energist & a bright energist are killed.

011825

+1 AA: Hero's Vitality

The Leviathan's Heart: No Remains

010225

Defeat all remnants before the Custodian re-enters the battle for the final time.

The last two (2) a remnant spawn at about 2%. Kill them before you kill The Custodian.

The Leviathan's Heart: Unshuddered

121724

No energists are hit by the Heart Shudder spell causing them to gain power.

During this event, two white circles will appear somewhere in the event area, that will become a large yellow circle when it triggers. Avoid being between the circles (everyone, every time). There will be an emote about a directional part of the Heart (middle of the event area) swelling (i.e. 'The eastern portion of the leviathan's heart swells.'). Avoid that side of the event area.

The Leviathan's Heart: Non-Explosive

011825

Allow no Explosions of Light or Explosions of Darkness to occur.

During this event, a bright energist and a dark energist will spawn at intervals... a bright energist will cast 'Bright Power' (EMOTE: You are surrounded in bright energy.); & a dark energist will cast 'Dark Power' (EMOTE: You are surrounded in dark energy.); on a player who is in range and on aggro. Split the tanks to aggro them, separately, ASAP... and have those two tanks stay a reasonable distance away from each other for the entire event (but still in heal range... say either side of the Cleric). If other Players get the effect on them, they should stay near the appropriate tank and away from the tank that has the opposite effect.

Hero of The Gilded Spire: The Control Room

From Lokta Geroth in Aureate Covert, key word 'warlord.'

011425

Complete the listed Mission.

Base Strategy: Need at least one (1) Player with four (4) pre-made Hot Buttons to target Daria Krotek and say one of four (4) things based on emotes, as follows:

• EMOTE: The general summons a horde of venomous beasts (/say Harla Dar to Darta Krotek);
• EMOTE: The general activates one of the seconday control crystals, bringing the leviathan's magic and pain to bear on their enemies. (say Silverwing to Darta Krotek);
• EMOTE: General Usira surrounds itself with an impenetrable barrier. (/say Keikolin to Darta Krotek);
• EMOTE: A grand manipulator teleports into the room and begins accessing its power. (/say Venesh to Darta Krotek).

Start the event by talking to either a spire soldier.

• Kill a gilded mystic and the two (2) a spire soldier.
• Take General Usira to the south east corner and do not over DPS (patience).
• Swap to and kill a gilded guardian adds, ASAP, when they spawn. Be ready for them to de-aggro the tank and select another Player to attack and draw to them.
• At ~90% the Player with Hot Keys for Daria Krotek needs to all ready be in place to /say the appropriate phrases, as noted above (this counters certain things for you). They will need to stay there for the rest of the event.
• NOTE: There is about a 45-Second delay for when the Player (or anyone) can successfully talk to Daria Krotek. So, do NOT spam the Hot Buttons! Click them once (there is an emote that the requested dragon is on it's way)!
• Kill any adds that are up just before General Usira reaches ~60% health.
• Once they are dead, max DPS General Usira to about 39% to avoid the room 'tilts' (actually, more like a directional slide)... then immediately go back to controlled DPS. Levitation is a help if the tilts happen.
• When a grand manipulator spawns, you can kill other adds first (off tank, put a pet on it...).
• Kill General Usira to win and open the chest.

NOTE: One of the emotes currently used 'Seconday' rather than 'Secondary.' It will likely to be corrected in a  patch.

The Control Room: Overboard

011425

Nobody gets thrown off the leviathan during the battle.

This has to do with the room 'tilts' that can happen during this mission (60% to 40%). The best way to do this is burn at 61% to 39% to by-pass the tilts.

Nobody gets zapped by a neural spark.

This has to do with the roaming aura. Avoid it 100%.

The Control Room: Unmanipulated

011425

Nobody dies with Deadly Manipulation on them.

No one can die when they have death 'Deadly Manipulation' on them (1.5M HP DoT for 2 or 3 tics). 

Hero of The Gilded Spire: The High Priest

From Lokta Geroth in Aureate Covert, key word 'priest.'

011825

Complete the listed Mission.

Base Strategy: Position in the northwest corner area. Patience is key... do NOT over DPS High Priest Yaran! In fact, let the tank and ONLY the tank do the DPS on High Priest Yaran. Cures are 100% priority over adds. Adds are priority over the boss! Percentages noted below can vary due multiple factors... slow and steady is the way to go.

• Kill the animated statue.
• Aggro and take High Priest Yaran to the same spot (everyone move under him). The tank should keep aggro on everything.
• 98%: Stop DPS on High Priest Yaran and kill adds when they are up, giving preference to killing Rector of the Skies first. The two (2) an acolyte will poof when Rector of the Skies dies.
• ~80% ADDS:  Stop DPS on High Priest Yaran and kill adds when they are up, giving preference to killing Rector of the Skies first. The two (2) an acolyte will poof when Rector of the Skies dies.
• ~75%: Hold DPS on High Priest Yaran until two (2) Players get targeted for a curse... either 'Penance' (750,750 HP DD, 15-Second Stun) or 'Purification' (800,800 HP DD & -10,000 Mana). This will continue for the rest of the event, at about every 10%.
• WASTE NO TIME... Players need to be cured within about 24-Seconds, by running into the 'cure' aura around either the Minister of Cleansing or the Minister of Punishment. Getting cures is the #1 key to beating this mission, in my opinion. The Minister of Cleansing is in the south east corner of the room by the shrine (EMOTE: You have been commanded to purify yourself.); Minister of Punishment is in the north west corner of the room by the doorway (EMOTE: You need to do penance for your disobedience.).
• FAILED CURE ADDS: If a Player is not cured.... adds will spawn... a penance and / or a penance (depending on which curse the Player had that failed to get cured). If adds spawn, immediately halt any DPS on High Priest Yaran and kill them!
• ~65%: Hold DPS on High Priest Yaran until two (2) Players get targeted for a curse and then get cured. Otherwise kill the add(s) that spawn from failed cured.
• ~55%: Hold DPS on High Priest Yaran until two (2) Players get targeted for a curse and then get cured. Otherwise kill the add(s) that spawn from failed cured.
• ~45%: Hold DPS on High Priest Yaran until two (2) Players get targeted for a curse and then get cured. Otherwise kill the add(s) that spawn from failed cured.
• ~40%: Adds will start to spawn again. There will be two (2) an acolyte each time (no Rector of the Skies this time, if you did as noted above).
• ~35%: Hold DPS on High Priest Yaran until two (2) Players get targeted for a curse and then get cured. Otherwise kill the add(s) that spawn from failed cured.
• ~30%: Adds will start to spawn again. There will be two (2) an acolyte each time (no Rector of the Skies this time, if you did as noted above).
• ~25%: Hold DPS on High Priest Yaran until two (2) Players get targeted for a curse and then get cured. Otherwise kill the add(s) that spawn from failed cured.
• ~20%: Adds will start to spawn again. There will be two (2) an acolyte each time (no Rector of the Skies this time, if you did as noted above).
• ~15%: Hold DPS on High Priest Yaran until two (2) Players get targeted for a curse and then get cured. Otherwise kill the add(s) that spawn from failed cured.
• ~20%: Adds will start to spawn again. There will be two (2) an acolyte each time (no Rector of the Skies this time, if you did as noted above).
• ~5%: You can opt to old DPS on High Priest Yaran until two (2) Players get targeted for a curse and then get cured. Otherwise kill the add(s) that spawn from failed cured... or just burn High Priest Yaran. However, all adds must be dead before you can kill High Priest Yaran.
• Open the chest.

The High Priest: Unstomped

011825

Allow no one to die to the animated statue.

This one is straight forward... no one can die from the animated statue.

The High Priest: Kill the Body

011825

Defeat the acolytes and only kill the Rectors when no acolytes are alive.

This one is either poorly worded or functioning opposite of 'as intended.' In the first two add waves, always kill Rector of the Skies first, which will cause the two (2) an acolyte to despawn. After that, the Rector of the Skies should not re-appear again.

Allow no purification or penance to spawn.

This one is all about the cures. Everyone must get cured so that a penance or a penance do not spawn... at all!

NAME

REWARD(S)

(Other than XP and / Coin.)

Conqueror of Hodstock Hills: Herald of the Outer Brood

010525

Remove the darkness from all six of the a scalewrought guardian.

During this event the first set of MoB's will have one (1) or more of four (4) different effects on them. Remove these effects by dragging them into appropriate cannon target auras before you kill them... as follows:  "Hardened Shell' = green aura; 'Runic Shield' = blue aura; 'Outworld Aura' = yellow aura; & 'Magical Shell' = purple aura.

NOTE: It will be necessary to hold DPS until these auras appear / spawn.

Herald of the Outer Brood: Bonded

011225

Bond with every scalewrought ravager that joins the battle.

About every 65-Seconds, there will be a delivery vessel that spawns. Have rangers / ranged attackers immediately target and destroy them... every one of them (100%)... which will spawn a non-aggro a scalewrought ravager that 'bond' with the raid and help the raid for as short time.

Herald of the Outer Brood: Unpurged

010525

Don't remove any of the defenses from the Herald or its minions.

During this event some of the adds will have one (1), or more, of four (4) different effects on them. Do NOT remove ANY of those effects by dragging them into cannon target auras.

Conqueror of The Theater of Eternity: Landing

010625

Kill all adds before killing the killing the boss.

Before you kill War Trainer Prime, kill every add!

N / A

Landing: Dance Masters

012025

Never fail at breaking the ritual

Never fail the color sequence... at all! The 'dance' group needs to be in place on time and move color to color expediently! Triggers are a tremendous help!

EMOTE: War Trainer Prime begins a ritual spell. (Color sequence about to be announced... be in position!)

EMOTE: The circle to the east flashes with green energy (Notification that green is one of the colors, in the sequence this emote happened.)

EMOTE: The circle to the west flashes with yellow energy (Notification that yellow is one of the colors, in the sequence this emote happened.)

EMOTE: The circle to the south flashes with blue energy  (Notification that blue is one of the colors, in the sequence this emote happened.)

EMOTE: The circle to the north flashes with red energy  (Notification that red is one of the colors, in the sequence this emote happened.)

EMOTE: A faint glow of the recent spell ritual spell casting remains. Perhaps a closely tied group of people following the same pattern will break the ritual. (Start the color sequence now!)

EMOTE: The runes of the ritual spell glow brighter. (Current color successful. move to the next color ASAP!)

EMOTE: With a flash of light, the ritual spell shatters. War Trainer Prime seems more vulnerable. (Color sequence completed successfully!)

EMOTE: The runes flare and burn everyone in the circle, then reset to the original glow. (Color sequence failed. Start over, achievement failed.)

Landing: Silent Cannons

010625

Never Allow a cannon to fire.

During this event, each of the six (6) cannons is 'manned' by a scalewrought cannoneer. Have two (2) of three (3) groups designated to keep them dead (they do respawn). Keep all of the a scalewrought cannoneer dead to prevent them from firing a cannon (a scalewrought cannoneer will fire after 4-Minutes if left alive for that long).

Conqueror of Aureate Covert: Silence the Cannons

030325

Silence the Cannons: All Things Being Equal

030325

Don't allow the Terrastriker and Skyguard Commanders to go out of balance.

After 50%, when both are active, keep them within 5% Health of each other.

Silence the Cannons: Constant Connection

030325

Don't pull the Terrastriker and Skyguard Commanders apart.

After 50%, when both are active, keep them near each other (essentially side-by-side).

Don't let any of the servants reach a commander.

The below cited strategy for this raid will have to be adjusted (positioning), as this involves killing every a servant before it reaches any Boss and explodes ('delivers'). This is because they pretty much spawn at the suggested tank spot in below cited strategy. Assign DPS teams to target and kill them ASAP, while tanks move the bosses / adds around the room. Not easy!

 Allow no transports to land.

During the Dock of the Bay raid, there will be emotes that a transport is about to dock and drop off some adds. Stop this (all of them... 100%) from happening by clicking the correct button (see below) to shut the bay door. 

Kill no Overseer Gunners.

During the Dock of the Bay raid, there will be several an overseer gunner that spawn. Don't kill any of them at all (see below) to shut the bay door. 

Remove no Clinging Mites.

During the Dock of the Bay raid, four Players at a time will be hit by 'Clinging Mites.'  These Players will need to run for the raid and avoid each other within 60 Seconds... but none of them (ZERO!) can cure the curse (see below)! Instead they should endure the final explosion.

Herald of the Outer Brood

(Tier 1)

Karina Stalis

(Hodstock Hills)

"The Herald has come to Norrath to begin the clearly arduous process of teaching the local dragons about all the things they are doing wrong, teach them the true word of Veeshan."

Suggestion: Place Banner / Campfires in the middle of the event area. Bring all adds, at least initially, to the banner / campfires. After that, the raid needs to move where it needs to move, as noted below.

First Stage: Speak to Herald of the Outer Brood (Keyword: 'Wait') to start the event.

• The first enemies it sends against you are a scalewrought guardian; a scalewrought drudge; a scalewrought peon; a scalewrought vassal; a scalewrought serf; and / or a scalewrought minion... that are all ready lined up near Herald of the Outer Brood.
• Kill them.
• 'Cannons' begin to fire on the field (cannon targeted areas show variant colored auras at random locations around the event area).
• The effects that some of the 'scalewrought' have can be removed by dragging them to the appropriate colored cannon target (aura... see below) and / or strategically ignored by attacking them using appropriate methods (melee vs spells... this concern does not apply to pets).

Second Stage: Once the six (6) 'scalewrought' are dead, Herald of the Outer Brood will attack.

• For the rest of the event, you want to have the tank immediately move Herald of the Outer Brood to the appropriate color aura (locations targeted by the 'cannons'). The entire raid can / should follow the tank into the aura / under Herald of the Outer Brood. Moving Herald of the Outer Brood into the auras will counter the effect(s) that Herald of the Outer Brood may have at the time (see next). The entire raid following the tank prevents Players from getting to spread out and out of heal range, casting range and so forth. If the tank is blinded, another tank needs to be ready to grab aggro and drag Herald of the Outer Brood to the right color aura.
• Counter the effects (see above) as follows:
  • 'Hardened Shell' (melee damage immunity) = green aura;
  • 'Runic Shield' (can reflect spells) = blue aura;
  • 'Outworld Aura' (9,500 HP Damage Shield) = yellow aura; &
  • 'Magical Shell' (spell damage immunity) = purple aura.
• These auras will appear (when cannons trigger) about 15-Seconds after Herald of the Outer Brood changes defenses (aka effects).
• BE AWARE: The auras (cannon targeted areas) do not remain in place for very long! Immediate action is essential.
• Sometimes, this may involve moving to more than one aura -- in quick succession -- to counter multiple effects. Herald of the Outer Brood can sometimes take on more than one (1) effect at the same time. If there is a need to prioritize colors, go with green & purple as they are the most detrimental to DPS.
• WARNING: There is also a dark red aura that can appear at the same place as one of the other auras. Avoid it! It does 'Clinging Radiation' (500K HP & 10K Mana DD 12-Second DoT).
• Herald of the Outer Brood (and the cannons when they fire) do have other attacks (about every 130-Seconds) like 'Energy Shock' (-70% Melee Haste & 550K HP DoT for 18-Seconds); 'Cage of the Outer Brood' (+2K Reverse Damage Shield for 12-Seconds); 'Enraged Focused Glare' (Blind and 450K HP DoT for 18-Seconds; Range 75); Multi-Focused Glare (600K DD & 4-Second Stun); 'Outer Brood Energy Surge' (Single Target 450K HP & 10K Mana DD; Range 1000); & 'Outworld Energy Focus' (+51% Spell & DoT Damage for 60-Seconds).
• Two (2) a scalewrought soldier adds will spawn about 12-times (about every 6% starting at 68%. They will spawn at Herald of the Outer Brood and will take a few seconds before they actually aggro. When they do, kill them ASAP.
• About every 65-Seconds, there will be a delivery vessel that spawns. Have rangers / ranged attackers immediately target and destroy them, which will spawn a non-aggro a scalewrought ravager that will help you for as short time. Otherwise, Herald of the Outer Brood will destroy the a delivery vessel and a scalewrought ravager will, instead, attack the raid.
• For the duration of the event, two (2) slow-moving non-aggro suicidal (they explode) a scalewrought bearer will spawn and each will target a Player (the targeted Player's name will be under a scalewrought bearer name). The targeted Players need to run away from the raid, wait for the a scalewrought bearer to catch them and explode with 'Magical Detonation' (750K HP & Knockback AE; Range 100... if the Player is near other Players, this explosion will hit everyone in range). Afterwards, the Player can return to the raid. On a side note, they are reportedly low HP and can be killed, but really, it makes more sense to let them explode on the targeted Players (it is survivable for most raid-geared Players).
• NOTE: The a scalewrought bearer exploding on the raid is the one thing that has the most potential to wipe the raid.
• Kill Herald of the Outer Brood to win the event.
• Open an elaborate chest for loot!

EMOTE: A bearer focuses on Bonzz. (a scalewrought bearer... run it away from the raid.)

EMOTE: A large object slams into the ground nearby. (a delivery vessel has appeared... range destroy it.)

EMOTE: The Herald of the Outer Brood becomes resistant to physical harm. (Take Herald of the Outer Brood to the green aura.)

EMOTE: The Herald of the Outer Brood becomes resistant to magic. (Take Herald of the Outer Brood to the purple aura.)

EMOTE: The Herald of the Outer Brood begins to radiate. (Take Herald of the Outer Brood to the yellow aura.)

EMOTE: Herald of the Outer Brood begins casting Runic Shield. (Take Herald of the Outer Brood to the blue aura.)

EMOTE: 'The Herald of the Outer Brood swipes the box with several wings, opening it.' (Add spawn from not destroying a delivery vessel.)

EMOTE: A cannon beam strikes the ground, irradiating nearby targets. (Avoid the Dark Red Aura).

Landing

(Tier 1)

1: Tank Spot; 2: Center of Color Circles; 3: Cannons / Cannoneers.

Captain Edraneth

(Theater of Eternity)

Speak with War Trainer Prime to start the event (Keyword: 'Destroy').

• Tank War Trainer Prime at the southwest corner of the event stage and no further, to avoid tethering.
  • This will better accommodate cross-DPS for War Trainer Prime, spawned adds (see next) and a scalewrought cannoneer (noted below).
• War Trainer Prime will cast 'Static Release,' an 800K AoE after 20-Seconds; then again after 25-Seconds; then again after 30-Seconds; and so on, for the entire event (+5 Seconds each time, to a max of 120-Seconds between casts).
• Two adds: a scalewrought cavalry (can be rooted), a scalewrought soldier (can be charmed), a scalewrought warscout (can be mezzed); will spawn on a regular basis for the entire event. Kill them at or near War Trainer Prime, ASAP.
• DPS GROUPS: There are six (6) cannons 'manned' by a scalewrought cannoneer.
  • Designate two (2) to three (3) DPS groups to kill all six (6) a scalewrought cannoneer.
  • When they respawn (2 Minute timer), kill them again... and keep them all dead for the entire event.
  • If a a scalewrought cannoneer is left alive for more than 4-minutes, it will fire it's cannon (AoE damage to the raid) and then fire again every 45-seconds thereafter, as long as it is still alive.
  • They do not have to be at their cannon to fire them, but they do tether if pulled too far from their cannon.
  • FAIL MECHANIC: If 30 (thirty) Cannons are allowed to fire, the raid fails!
• Meanwhile, War Trainer Prime will lock in health every 10%, starting at 90%.
  • The health of War Trainer Prime can only be 'unlocked' by a full group successfully following the color emotes (see next).
  • During this time, do not waste mana until the health of War Trainer Prime is unlocked again.
• COLOR GROUP: Assign a single full group to handle the 'colors,' aka 'Simon Says' as some Players call it. Put your most attentive and competent Players in this group (other than the Players in your tank line-up or DPS groups)!
  • This entire group will need to position in the center of the four colored (blue, yellow, green & red) circles (middle of the event area).
  • All six (6) group members must move ASAP, as a team, into each correct colored circle, in sequence.
  • The color sequence will be revealed, one (1) color a time, in a series of emotes. This group needs to take note of the sequence and move color to color, in order, in an expedient fashion. The sequence starts with a three (3) color sequence and by the end, it is a six (6) color sequence (3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 6).
  • HINT: When the color sequence is being emoted, go ahead and get in the first color, then face the second color. This can help a little in successful moves.
  • Moving from one color to the next has about a 5-Seconds 'check' between each successful move. There will be an emote for each successful color move.
  • Upon each successful color move, quickly move to the next color and so on until the health of War Trainer Prime is unlocked (also noted by an emote).
  • Failing one of the colors (by being in the wrong color when the 5-second check happens) results in a nasty 'Ritual Overload' punishment (600-Range, up to 1.2 Million HP DD and Blind for 12-Seconds).
  • There is no penalty and no fail (i.e. in the center and not in a color at all) unless you are in the wrong color when one of the 5-second checks happen.
  • If a fail, have the group go back to center for about 10-Seconds and then start over.
  • If a color is emoted twice (or more) in a row, the group can stay on the same color until each needed update happens. However, if it helps Players 'remember' better, they can quickly step out and then quickly step right back in.
  • NOTE: The 'color' group can & should participate in DPS of War Trainer Prime between doing colors, so long as they are back in position 1% to 2% before each color sequence starts (every 10%).
• Keep this process up until War Trainer Prime is defeated.
• Open an elaborate chest for loot.

EMOTE: Magic builds up around War Trainer Prime. (AoE Damage incoming.)

EMOTE: A new cannoneer reports for duty. (A new a scalewrought cannoneer has spawned... kill it.)

EMOTE: A cannon has fired and the skies are no longer silent. (Indicates DD to raid, as a scalewrought cannoneer was left alive for too long and has fired a cannon.)

EMOTE: War Trainer Prime begins casting Static Release. (800K DD AoE.)

EMOTE: War Trainer Prime begins a ritual spell. (Be alert as the color sequence emotes are about to happen... and War Trainer Prime Health has locked.)

EMOTE: The circle to the west flashes with yellow energy (Indicates yellow as one of the colors in the color sequence.)

EMOTE: The circle to the east flashes with green energy (Indicates green as one of the colors in the color sequence.)

EMOTE: The circle to the north flashes with red energy (Indicates red as one of the colors in the color sequence.)

EMOTE: The circle to the south flashes with blue energy (Indicates blue as one of the colors in the color sequence.)

EMOTE: The runes flare and burn everyone in the circle, then reset to the original glow. (Color sequence failed and has reset... try again.)

EMOTE: The runes of the ritual spell glow brighter. (Indicates success on the current color... move to the next one!)

EMOTE: With a flash of light, the ritual spell shatters. War Trainer Prime seems more vulnerable. (Color sequence was successful and War Trainer Prime can be DPS'ed again.)

ADD EMOTE(S): A scalewrought cavalry gallops into combat. / A scalewrought soldier rushes into combat. / A scalewrought war scout flies into combat. / The sound of troops rallying comes from the northeast /  The sound of troops rallying comes from the northwest / The sound of troops rallying comes from the southeast / The sound of troops rallying comes from the southwest (All indicate adds incoming!)

Silence the Cannons

(Tier 2)

Admiral Karkoni

(Aureate Covert)
 

"One of the main defenses for the invaders are their magical cannons. Your task is to shut them down. Hopefully they will not be able to replace them before we can take action against their fortress. There are two commanders to defeat, the commanders of the sky and ground forces. Over time, as the battle rages more and more of the cannons will turn to fire upon you."

(1) Caster / Healer Spot; (2) Kite an overcharged orb path; (3) Cannons and area to avoid due AoE near Cannons; (4) & (5) Side Cannons.

PRE-CLEAR: Clear trash MoB's in the hallway and down below (halls and just outside main doorway) before you start, as Players can aggro trash during the raid if they run down the hallway or fall to the floor below (levitation doesn't work here).

STARTING MOB'S: There are five (5) a scalewrought cannoneer, with the two (2) bosses (Terrastriker Commander & Skyguard Commander) behind them. There are also several a dragon cannon along the edge of the platform (they can not be attacked or destroyed) and inside each of the crystals that line north & south walls. Pre-Assign tanks for each MoB.

CANNONS: The a dragon cannon fire beams (as many as four (4) at a time) that start narrow and get wider (20-degree arc) as the beam reaches the opposite side of the room. Each active a dragon cannon will target an area with a visible / colored ground aura (target ring)... and then fire after ~15 seconds. 'Cannon Fire' (350 to 10 Degree Arc in the direction they are pointing; AE Range 600; 800K HP & 8K Mana DD). Do not fight near a dragon cannon (particularly to the east at the ledge) as they each have a AE 100-range 'Cannon Backlash' (850K HP & 12K Mana DD). NOTE: The a dragon cannon attacks will happen about 45-Seconds after each previous attack (for the rest of the event).

ENRAGE TIMER: There is an enrage timer for this event that can wipe the raid. After 30-Minutes, the timer will result in more frequent add spawns and / or more frequent cannon fire. After another 6-Minutes it increases again. Potentially, this will continue and it is essentially impossible to overcome.

TETHERING: The Raid takes place in the confines of the 'square' / platform area. If you drag either boss (or adds) into the hallway (past the two columns at the elevators) or off the platform, they will tether and reset to 100%.

EVENT KEYS:

• Kite every an overcharged orb away from the main raid force (run them down the hallway (west), away from the main raid area). Failure to do this is the #1 fail mechanic. Tanks with aggro need to kite than away from the hallway (east).
• Beat the enrage timer.
• Keep tanks alive and also use AoE Healing.
• Don't tether MoB's.
• Avoid cannon fire, or at least avoid being hit by more than one cannon fire at the same time.
• Keep bosses together (or at least side-by-side) & balanced within 5% when both are active (After 50%).
• Kill order: a servant (if possible), a terrastriker cannoneer and then Terrastriker Commander / Skyguard Commander (adds first). Face them North / South due their frontal attacks.

START: Start the event by talking to an observer (in the hallway) (Keyword: 'Die').

PHASE 1: Kill the five (5) MoB's that are all ready up, to progress to the next phase.

• Two (2) random a dragon cannon will simultaneously attack (they are at the edge of the platform and inside each crystal that line the walls).
• Some raids use a tactic of running back and forth between the NW and SW corners (to better avoid cannon fire), with the tank(s) dragging the boss(es) and the entire raid following suit.
• However, there is another tactic that reduces run about for nearly everyone except the tanks. In the area marked (1) (map above), there is a small triangular area that can avoid a lot of cannon fire, or at least cross cannon fire. Tank MoB's in the small area, with casters / healers positioned back in the hall way between the elevators. Melee (not main tanks) can then run back and forth to the casters / healers to avoid cannon fire. This tactic also requires off-tanks to pick up add spawns ASAP (so they don't kill the casters / healers) and to generally ignore a servant.

PHASE 2: Terrastriker Commander will attack.

• Three (3) random a dragon cannon will now be active and simultaneously attack at regular intervals.
• Terrastriker Commander uses 'Brutal Slam' (Single Target 550 HP DD; Range 1K) and 'Reaching Grasp' (12-Second 450K HP DoT... drops aggro on current Tank and pulls a different random Player to himself).
• Two (2) a terrastriker cannoneer adds will spawn at the hallway near the elevators (timed... you can get more than one set of adds if DPS is not good enough). Off-tanks need pick them up ASAP and pull them out to the tank spot (to avoid non-stope tethering)). The a terrastriker cannoneer use 'Directed Explosion' (Frontal AE; 330 Degree to 30 Degree Arc; AE Range 250; 400K DD & 8.5K Mana Drain). Face them away from them main raid.
• There will also be one (1) non-aggro (but targetable) a servant (it can be targeted and killed). It will path from near the hallway towards either of the two bosses (whichever is up). Unless you are after the Achievement, you may want to ignore them using this strategy. They will explode with 'Energy Release' (AE 650K HP & 25K Mana DD; AE Range 500; & 4-Second Stun), so heal through it.
• DPS Terrastriker Commander to 70% (it will de-aggro) to progress to Phase 3.

PHASE 3: Skyguard Commander will become active and attack.

• Four (4) random a dragon cannon will now be active and simultaneously attack at regular intervals.
• The two (2) a terrastriker cannoneer adds and the one (1) non-aggro (but targetable) a servant will continue.
• Skyguard Commander uses 'Explosive Breath' (Frontal 650K HP DD with 18-Second 550K HP AE DoT in a 300 to 60 Degree Arc; Heal Amount -20%; AE Range 400). Turn Skyguard Commander away from the main raid.
• Skyguard Commander also uses 'Wing Burst' (Side AE for 450K HP DD with a 2-Second Stun). Avoid the sides (wings) of Skyguard Commander.
• DPS Skyguard Commander to 70% (it will de-aggro) to progress to Phase 4.

PHASE 4: Terrastriker Commander will re-activate and attack.

• Terrastriker Commander will continue to use 'Brutal Slam' & 'Reaching Grasp.'
• The two (2) a terrastriker cannoneer adds and the one (1) non-aggro (but targetable) a servant will continue.
• Four (4) random a dragon cannon will remain active and simultaneously attack at regular intervals.
• DPS Terrastriker Commander to 50% (it will de-aggro again) to progress to the next phase.

PHASE 5: Skyguard Commander will re-activate and attack.

• Four (4) random a dragon cannon will remain active and simultaneously attack at regular intervals.
• The two (2) a terrastriker cannoneer & one (1) a servant adds will continue.
• Three (3) an overcharged orb will be added into the mix (non-aggro). They will spawn at Skyguard Commander and stand still a moment, before moving towards targeted Players (the Players name is emoted and is also visible under an overcharged orb's name... don't be surprised if more than one of them target the same Player). Targeted Players will not include the tank. Targeted Players need to immediately 'kite' their an overcharged orb away from the main raid (run down the hallway, use side rooms if needed and avoid other kiters). Each an overcharged orb will explode ('Energy Release')  if they catch up to a targeted Player (75 AE Range; AoE 600K HP & 20K Mana DD; Knock Back 3-Distance; and Dispel). Otherwise, each an overcharged orb will explode after about 25-Seconds, even if they do not catch up with their targeted Player.
• DPS Skyguard Commander to 50% (it will NOT de-aggro this time) to progress to Phase 4.

PHASE 6: Skyguard Commander will become active and join the battle with Skyguard Commander.

• Four (4) random a dragon cannon will remain active and simultaneously attack at regular intervals.
• The two (2) a terrastriker cannoneer & one (1) a servant adds will continue.
• Three (3) an overcharged orb adds will continue.
• Skyguard Commander & Terrastriker Commander will continue to use their special attacks.
• Skyguard Commander & Terrastriker Commander need to be kept within 5% Health of each other, otherwise they will heal each other back up.
• Skyguard Commander & Terrastriker Commander need to be kept within 75-Range if each other, otherwise, after 15-Seconds they will each cast 'Separation Anxiety' (AE 600K HP & 1.5K Mana DoT; Silence; 24-Second Duration). This will stop if one of the bosses is dead.

WIN:

• Defeat both Skyguard Commander & Terrastriker Commander to win the event.

EMOTE: The terrastriker stretches its long arms. (Terrastriker Commander will drop aggro on current tank and select a random Player to target, instead.)

EMOTE:  Cannons turn inward in an attempt to clear out the intruders. (Avoid the Cannons & Targeted areas ASAP).

EMOTE: The cannons return to their positions. (Cannon attack done, safe for now.)

EMOTE: The terrastriker commander calls for reinforcements. (Two a terrastriker cannoneer and one a servant incoming).

EMOTE: An overcharged orb moves toward (Bonzz). (an overcharged orb is pursuing named Player... that Player needs to kite it away from the raid ASAP.)

EMOTE: The terrastriker bunches its massive clawed fist. (Terrastriker Commander is targeting a Player for an unresistable 450K HP nuke.)

EMOTE: The Skyguard Commander's wings twitch. (Wing attack from Skyguard Commander incoming.)

EMOTE: As the commanders stand apart, the energy bonding them is strained, and the power of the leviathan surges into them and then outward with a destructive force. (Failed to keep Skyguard Commander & Terrastriker Commander together... 24-Second DoT / Silence activated.)

EMOTE: The skyguard commander carefully sets a storage device on the ground. It hovers and shakes with excess magical energy. (an overcharged orb incoming, kite if on you!)

EMOTE: An overcharged orb moves toward (Bonzz). (Targeted Players need to kite their an overcharged orb away from the main raid, ASAP!)

Dock of the Bay

(Tier 2)

Alchemist Balino Frugrin

(Theater of Eternity)

"This is where the invaders launch their transports, those that deliver troops to the ground. It is your task to disrupt their ability to do so. The transports themselves are generally too passive and burdened with their gondolas to attack, but there is one immature transport in the bay that will certainly cause trouble."

Start the event by talking to Chief Mechanic (Keyword: 'Threatened').

EVENT NOTES: This event is very, very heal heavy, with mass / constant AoE healing being essential. Also essential is 100% Emote Obeyance. Failing Emotes (even one) can wipe the raid due AoE Damage and / or overwhelming adds. Be sure everyone is levitated and shrunk. Basically... massive healing, turning Immature Transport to face the raid, obeying emotes and add pick ups / control.

PRE-CLEAR: Clear the zone of trash before starting, to allow Players to move about more freely when obeying emotes.

RAID POSTIONING: Suggested Raid positioning is to set up on mid-upper section of one of the ramps at the docks (see #1 on below image). This allows room for tanks to drag Immature Transport to the northerly dip in the ramp (#2 on below image) and then turn it to face the raid. It also allows raid members easier pathways to handle cure (#3 on below image) and runaway emotes (noted below, #4 thru #7 on below image), as well as benefit more from AoE healing.

• START: Four (4) a striker will attack. Defeat them to move to the next stage. All four (4) must be aggroed ASAP or event can fail (Hoshkar must survive the first wave).
• STAGE TWO: Chief Mechanic will then spawn four (4) more a striker.
  • ALTERED ADDS: On a timed basis (4-Waves at 60-Second intervals), three (3) 'altered' adds will also spawn (an altered skyguard, an altered striker, an altered artificer and / or an altered overseer). These adds have much lower HP. Give them kill priority to reduce the burden on healers and tanks and to prevent overwhelming adds.
  • AOE: Chief Mechanic, when damaged, will use 'Loaned Energy Discharge' (900-Range AoE, 800K HP DD with 6-Second Stun).
  • EMBEDDED ENERGY / EMBEDDED EXPLOSION: Chief Mechanic will target four (4) Players at a time for 'Embedded Energy' (1K Range). These Players have 18-seconds to immediately run away from the raid (at least 150 Range) and each other, before being hit by 'Embedded Explosion' (150 AoE Range, 850,850 HP DD, 35K Mana Drain, and Knock Back / Toss Up). Pre-Set four (4) different runway spots for Players based on the sequence they are named in the emote. Failing to run, and especially multiple 'Embedded Explosion,' can wipe the raid!
• STAGE THREE: As this is happening, Stage Three can (and likely will) start even before Stage Two is fully done.
  • NOTE: Finish Stage Two, even if Stage Three has started.
  • Immature Transport will activate and attack.
    • The Immature Transport has a nasty tail attack ('Rudder Slap' -- 120 Degree to 240 Degree 300 Range AoE for 750,750 HP DD, with a  6-Second Stun and knock back) that it uses practically non-stop. Tanks need to 100% Keep the Immature Transport faced TOWARDS the main raid to counter this, as it can wipe the raid.
    • Immature Transport uses 'Scalewrought Power Aura' (1K Range Red Aura... 550,450 HP DD & 900% Snare; 12-Seconds).
    • Immature Transport also uses 'Fractured Scalewrought Power' (1k Range Blue Aura... 650,575 HP DD; 12-Seconds).
    • Immature Transport can’t be harmed because of a barrier that keeps it safe. However, Hoshkar will show up to destroy that magic, allowing the raid to do damage to the Immature Transport. As long as Hoshkar is present, he will keep Immature Transport vulnerable to attack.
    • Additionally, Immature Transport will call out (4) Players at a time for 'Clinging Mites' (60-Second duration DoT, 400,330 HP DD, 20K Mana Drain, Reduced Casting time and Amnesia). Players have 60-Seconds to get cured.
    • The 'Clinging Mites' cure is by getting near / touching the Crushing Sphere (a rolling ball surrounded by a rock-dervish aura), that paths back and forth along the path by the ramps (#3 on image). It is possible to approach the Crushing Sphere and avoid the stun / damage from 'Crushing Boulder' (450,650 HP DD, 2-Second Stun & Push Back / Toss Up) with some finesse (don't run into the rock-dervish aura... try to stay on the outer edge until cured, then back away quickly). If you are hit by the Crushing Sphere, get out of it ASAP if you can!
    • The Crushing Sphere can be stopped (at least for a time), if desired, by killing both (mover) on either end of the pathway (they are rolling it back and forth). They need to be killed at the nearly the same time or they are quickly replaced. This can make curing 'Clinging Mites' easier, but it must be considered if it is worth the diverted effort.
  • Several an overseer gunner will spawn.
    • The an overseer gunner will use 'Mental Break' (1K range 10K Mana Drain with 6-Second Stun).
    • The an overseer gunner are low HP and can be killed, but they will respawn. It may be a good idea to keep them dead, if you can.
  • BAY DOORS: There are five 'arrival' spots via the bay doors, where six (6) a striker adds can be dropped off to rush the raid.
    • This is not good, so someone needs to immediately go shut the Bay Doors to prevent this from happening.
    • This is done by clicking the correct button based on the emote (a large green-jewel button... they look like a green-screen computer monitor to me).
    • There are five (5) of these buttons (A to E on the map image, above) (A = Eastern; B = Inner Eastern; C = Central; D = Inner Western; & E = Western).
• WIN: Defeat Immature Transport & Chief Mechanic for the win.

EMOTE: Hoshkar cuts at the immature transport with a magical power, harming the creature and weakening its defense. (Immature Transport now vulnerable to attacks.)

EMOTE: As the sphere crashes into you, it knocks the mites from your body. ('Clinging Mites' has been cured.)

EMOTE: The immature transport sends tiny mites to cling to Player, Player, Player, and Player. (The named Players have 60-Seconds to get away from the main raid and cured by touching the Crushing Sphere. Fail and the explosion can wipe the raid if you are too close.)

EMOTE: The Chief Mechanic focuses energy on Player, Player, Player, and Player. (The named Players have 18-Seconds to get away from the raid and each other before being hit with a 150-Range AoE, that can potentially wipe the raid.)

EMOTE: An Overseer Gunner gains focus to defend its local space. (Overseer Gunner attack.)

EMOTE: Mutated Monsters charge into the bay and rush at Hoshkar. (Hoshkar being attacked.)

EMOTE: The immature leviathan starts to move. (Immature Transport immune to damage again.) NOTE: Yes, the emote says 'leviathan' event though the NPC is 'transport.'

EMOTE(S): A troop transport approaches the eastern bay. / A troop transport approaches the inner eastern bay. / A troop transport approaches the central bay. / A troop transport approaches the inner western bay. / A troop transport approaches the western bay. (Someone to need to immediately go click the related button to shut the doors to prevent six adds from spawning.)

EMOTE: A new mover arrives to replace the dead one. (A replacement for the mover you killed has spawned.)

EMOTE: (Player) slams the trigger to close a bay, but there is no transport landing there. (The wrong button was clicked. Click the correct one ASAP.)

EMOTE: (Player) slams the trigger to close the bay as the transport approaches, blocking its arrival. (Correct Bay Door has been shut successfully.)

EMOTE: The immature transport refuses to be drawn away from the battle. (???)

"Brood Architect Hazuri’s task, and one true inspiration, is the development of new scalewrought. Now that he is here and knows more about the local species of dragons and the mortals that they have allowed to rule the planet, he will certainly create monstrosities that will be even more deadly. Stopping him is your task. In his hatchery you will find the Red Lord, Atathus. The invaders captured him during one of his attempts to breach their defenses, and here is his prison. Speak with him to begin the event."
 

• First Stage: Brood Architect Hazuri roars and smashes some of the multitude of (eggs) under his care. Creatures fall out and attack. Defeat these (unmodified subjects) to move to the next stage.
• Second Stage: Brood Architect Hazuri attacks. Like most dragons, his primary form of attack is a breath weapon, but Brood Architect Hazuri is a master of his minions and that is what he fights with. As he is damaged, he will teleport to one of his (egg clusters) and rip into it, devouring many of the (eggs) to gain their power. This frees several of the (creatures) inside, and he also releases an (animate pile of goop) that will wander about. The power Brood Architect Hazuri gains will manifest in his breath weapon, altering it and making it much more powerful. Each (creature) and each (pool) will have their own ability. (Dripping greenish puddle) radiates 'Mind-Binding Aura,' which will block the effects of 'Power of the Overseer' (Brood Architect Hazuri’s green-powered breath). (Putrid purple pool) radiates 'Body-Binding Aura,' which remove the effects of 'Ripening Cut' (caused by some of the (unripe experiments) that appear later). (Goopy pink pool) radiates 'Energy-Binding Aura,' which suppresses mana regeneration. (Oozing orange pool) radiates 'Venom-Binging Aura,' which will amplify 'Power of the Skyguardian' (Brood Architect Hazuri’s orange-powered breath... removed by running a more reasonable distance away from where you were when it landed on you). Beat Brood Architect Hazuri to 70% health and move to the next stage
• Third Stage: Brood Architect Hazuri will create replicas of himself, at the start of this stage and at 40% health. Just before creating replicants, Brood Architect Hazuri will pop into the middle of the room. Brood Architect Hazuri and his replicants will be weaker than he was before, but as they are defeated he will reclaim their power and even a bit more. So long as he has replicants, Brood Architect Hazuri cannot be killed. Defeat the first set of replicants, or knock Brood Architect Hazuri down to 55% health and move to the next stage.
• Fourth Stage: At this time Brood Architect Hazuri proves his power over the meager dragons of Norrath and forces Atathus into the battle on his side. Knock Brood Architect Hazuri to 40% health and move to the next stage
• Fifth Stage:  Everything above continues, but now Brood Architect Hazuri gets a little desperate and becomes willing to risk all of his experiments. Now he starts to crack open the (eggs) attached to the ceiling. Brood Architect Hazuri replicants their own breath weapon that isn’t as strong as Brood Architect Hazuri’s. Each of these will produce a large number of (unripe experiments). All of these (unripe experiments) are vulnerable to mesmerization spells, but not by those that affect an area, as those are too weak. Kill Brood Architect Hazuri to win the event (remember, he won’t die if any of his replicants are alive).

• Power of the Overseer is no longer an area of effect spell. Oops. This was the reason it was not being blocked by the pool aura.
• Hazuri can no longer fly. While clearly, he can, he has more than enough wings, flying is part of the reason that he was getting stuck up on the ceiling. Also added a little scripting to pop him back down if he gets too high up. He’s also, sadly, smaller in an attempt to make him less likely to get stuck.
• Power of the Striker seems to have been blocking the aura from the putrid purple pool. Put in a speculative fix that should be in place with a beta update tonight (10/19/24)
• Reduced the stun time on Bio-shock from 15 seconds to 5.
• The Venomous explosions will no longer have such a large radius (starting 10/19/24).
• Reduced the amount of mana damage across all spells in the event, again effective 10/19/24 after beta updates.
• Now the unripes will take 20% damage when mezzed every 15 seconds or so. This make the achievement harder, I think, but makes the adds less annoying. Gain some, lose some.
• Hmm... I just checked and the Subjugation thing seems to be working fine. The boss should cast it the first time be becomes aggro after spawning the replicants (both times).
• Definitely not intended to have a reset in the middle of the event. Hopefully I have fixed this, but generally it's some add getting lost someplace. It's not related to how long the replicants are alive, they want to live forever, after all.

The Leviathan's Heart

(Tier 3)

Master Alchemist Penigan

(Chambers of Puissance)

"Deep inside the leviathan itself can be found its heart. Horrifyingly, the outer brood have somehow opened caverns inside the massive beast all the way to its heart. The inject it with chemicals and magic in order to control it. This must stop. Speak with the guards to start the fight."
 

• First Stage: The guards attack. Defeat them to start the next stage.
• Second Stage: The Custodian enters the battle. As it is wounded it spawns off remnants. These will wander a bit before exploding in Scalewrought Blood Poison. This poison is more dangerous than its generally caustic nature. If someone with this poison on them is hit with the Evil Eye, they will be given the Scalewrought Bloodcurse. If someone dies with this blood curse on them, some of their body will be turned into a fresh remnant. These remnants are not without value, as their Partially Formed lenses can block the effect of the Evil Eye. The Custodian also casts Evil Eye, which is something that spell casters should want to avoid. Knock the Custodian to 80% of its health and it will withdraw. Go to the next stage.
• Third Stage: Several types of creatures will join the fight. Dark Energist & Bright Energist carry an energy source of their type. They will place upon enemies a version of that energy (Bright or Dark Energy). Bright and Dark Energy proc Bright and Dark Spark. If a Bright Spark hits an Bright Energist with a Bright Source, there will be an explosion. Same for the Dark Spark and Dark Source. Mind Melders will cast Lost Mind on people, which will cause them to wander into the pit. Also at this time the Custodian causes the leviathan’s heart to beat irregularly, which will send out cones of power. These are best avoided. Defeat the energists and melders to move to the next stage.
• Fourth Stage: The Custodian rejoins the battle. Along with its other powers, it now begins to use Glare of the Curator. As it loses health it will teleport to a location to concentrate. After a moment it will fire one beam at a location (indicated by a decal and an aura). Knock The Curator to 55% health and it will retreat again.
• Fifth Stage: Dark Energist & Bright Energist start to appear again, and the heartbeat will return. Voidburned Skyguards start to appear. These can be mesmerized by non-area of effect spells. Defeat the enemies to move to the next stage.
• Sixth Stage: The Curator rejoins the fight. It continues to spawn remnants, using the Evil Eye and its Caustic Glare. Dark Energist & Bright Energist will appear as the Curator loses health. Also, Polyps will begin to form. The appear in the well below the heart. These spew a small amount of poisonous gas. Individually they are not very dangerous. But the more of them that are alive, the larger their cloud of poison, which will infect people with Poisonous Blood Haze. So, it is good to clear these things out, however, killing one will cause it to explode in a small burst of poison. When the curator is below 30% health its remnants (can be snared) will react differently. They become aggressive. They still explode when killed, but now they can use their Stunning Gaze on people. The Curator can not be killed while any creatures that are not polyps or remnants are alive. Defeat the Curator, win the event.

• Changed the way the Glare of the Curator works. Now it only casts one to start and ramps up to three as the event goes along. Also possibly fixed an issue that might cause the target location indicators to remain around too long.
• The targeted area for the Heart Shudder now has a decal! Thanks to the engineers for adding this new feature.
• Remnants now drop three lenses, and they no longer stack.
• Set pretty much everything to summon at 70%. This is an experiment, hopefully it will allow you to move around a bit better.
• Slightly adjusted the tether to use the proper check. It will now be a lot tighter to the room.

The Control Room

(Tier 3)

Lokta Geroth

(Aureate Covert)

"Here is where General Usira runs the assault on Norrath and controls the leviathan itself. This massive golden dragon dominates the room. Speak to one of the guards to start the event."
 

• First Stage: The spire soldiers attack. Defeat them to move to the next stage.
• Second Stage: The General retracts the control pillars to keep them safe (and to give him room to fight). He then joins the battle. He attacks with a Massive Claw and a Tail Swipe. Drop the General to 85% and we move to the next stage.
• Third Stage: Spire Guardians join the battle. As they are wounded they will Guardian Charge. They will pick a target, ignore whoever they were fighting, and charge. They will knock anyone in their way about as they go. Drop the General to 65% health and move to the next stage.
• Fourth Stage: The General begins to use his magic. At timed intervals will cast Mind Numbing Aura. He also starts activating various abilities and calling in allies. These things are dangerous, but you still have allies to call upon, the dragons of Norrath. But for these dragons to get into the room, the gilded mystics reinforcing the barrier to the outside must be killed. If they are dead, speak with Darta Krotek to call in reinforcements as needed.
  • Grand Manipulator – casts Deadly Manipulation. This spell should kill pretty much anyone that it lands on. Luckily, Venesh the Greenblood can fill the room with a gas that will keep the Manipulator from using its magic.
  • General’s Defense. When in this mode the General cannot be harmed. However, Keikolin the Enlightened can break that shield.
  • Crystals. On the sides of the room are power crystals. The General will use those to give pain to the leviathan. The cries of the leviathan are very harmful (Suffering of the Leviathan) and will amplify the power of the General’s Mind Numbing Aura. Happily, Silverwing can break those crystals if called.
  • Venomous Pests appear. Lots of them. You, however, have access to Harla Dar can scare those pests away.
• Drop the General to 45% and move to the next stage.
• Fifth Stage: The General is forced to restore the central control pillar. Using this he can cause the leviathan to tilt and sway. Avoid being tossed out of the leviathan. When the General is at 25% health, go to the next stage.
• Sixth Stage:  All of this use causes the central control pillar to be destroyed. Inside is revealed tendons and nerves leading to the leviathan’s brain. The tendons will attack people and pull them in (Grasping Tendon). In desperation the General will restore the two secondary control pillars. These connect to the leviathan’s nerve centers, and so the pillars will create sparks. These will move about the room and zap anyone that gets too close. As long as any spire guardians are alive, the General refuses to die. Defeat the General and win the event.

• Altered the timing of the event overall. Shortened all the early stages so there would be more time for the more challenging later phases. Yes, this makes the event harder, also more interesting. Life is about trade-offs.
• Lowered the HP on the spire guardians, the ones that charge, but about 30%. Also, you only get two each spawn rather than three. While the HP and number seemed fine when they were the only thing going on, they were too much later in the event.
• Lowered the HP on the gilded mystics and they will no longer respawn. I may re-add their respawn on further testing, but it seems like just one more thing in a pretty busy event.
• The “tilt” mechanic has a longer interval. Also, added a warning that should give you some idea which direction you will be pulled. As of tomorrow (10/17) the pull of the tilt (the gravitate) will be lesser so that you may be able to move about some. I don’t want it to be something you can just walk away from, obviously, but I do want you to actively change how it affects you.
• Made the decals on the neural effects red instead of white to be easier to see on the floors.
• Reduced the stun time and increased the interval on the Mind Numbing Aura that the General uses.
• The venomous thralls will no longer cause an idle reset while they are fleeing the room.
• Silverwing, when called at the right time, should now remove the offending crystal. Oddly the dodecahedron that gives the device power will stay floating there. I can’t seem to remove it, and frankly, I’m just going to hand wave it and say “because magic”.
• Fixed the way the final two pillars work. It should alternate between one neural spark floating about and the neural cores (pillars) casting an AoE. When the pillars are active, they will start with both happening, then switch to alternating between them.
• Changed the way the arrival of Keikolin should always remove the General’s immunity, no matter when called, if the defense is up.
• NOTE: Some folks are saying that they are getting stunned early in the fight. Usira uses his massive front claws to carve and bash enemies. That’s where the stun is coming from.
• One quick change, the boss will no longer do his front and rear cones when the floor is tilting.

High Priest of the Spire

(Tier 3)

Lokta Geroth

(Aureate Covert)

"The true leader of the invading brood is their high priest. So long as he lives, the invaders will not give up. Speak with the high priest to begin the event."
 

• First Stage: The High Priest activates his Radiating Presence. High Priest Yaran animates the statue that dominates the room. Defeat it and move to the next stage.
• Second Stage:  Yaran calls his acolytes and the Rector of the Skies. The acolytes have a breath weapon (Smoldering Breath). And as long as their Rector lives, they flurry. Killing the Rector will cause the acolytes to flee, killing all of the acolytes will cause the Rector to retreat to gather more. Yaran also joins the battle, using his Glowing Breath and Tail Strike. Bash the High Priest to 80% and move to the next stage.
• Third Stage:  The high priest starts insisting that his attackers prove their righteousness. He casts either Purification of Veeshan or Penance for Disobedience on targets. These targets must seek the proper Minister to cleanse them. If not, they will spawn a creature from their failure. The Rector of the Spire appears with its acolytes. The acolytes cast Shower of Spines. They also AoE rampage as long as their rector lives. The rector casts Crippling Slash. As before, if the rector is killed, the acolytes will flee, and if all acolytes are killed, the rector leave to seek more. When the high priest is at 55% health, go to the next stage.
• Fourth Stage: Acolytes of both types will appear as the high priest is harmed. When the high pries is at 40% health, go to the next stage.
• Fifth Stage:  If either rector fled previously, they will now return. The same rules apply as before, if these rectors are killed, any living acolytes will flee. This will not prevent acolytes from appearing later, the idea is that you can use the rectors to remove as many acolytes as you can keep at bay. Messengers begin to appear. These can be mesmerized, and if they are mesmerized three times they will wander off. However, if already mesmerized, they cannot be mesmerized again until it wears off. And the high priest will remove any mesmerization from them every 25 seconds. There are three types of messengers. If any of them reaches the high priest, he will devour them and gain their power. Faith grants him spell damage reduction. Vengeance give him a damage shield, and the messenger of Health will heal him a lot. As long as any creatures other than messengers are alive, the high priest cannot be defeated. Defeat the High Priest and win the event.

• In my probably misguided effort to but additional difficulty into this raid, I've put in the Light of Veeshan. An aura will appear, NPCs in that aura will get an attack speed boost. As the event goes on, more of them spawn. The first one always spawns on the High Priest. This should be working now. Let me know how bad it is.
• Reduced the number of people called for penance and purification. It was half the raid, now it is one third. I think I fixed the possible overlap that could have one person get hit by both. I can't really test this by myself. Let me know. Just for you, I added a call out for those that for some reason step into the auras without a reason.
• As for getting hit by the penance or purification auras, it only triggers when you enter, so if you are getting hit more than once it might be because you are standing on the edge. I made the aura larger so it is easier to step into, maybe that will help.
• I've seen it happen once in testing today. That happened when I had increased the radius of the aura without enlarging the decal, so I suspect I was on the edge without knowing it. Standing it the aura definitely doesn't cause multiple spells.
  Hopefully the slightly larger aura helps.

The Outer Brood
High in the sky over the hills of the long-ignored Hodstock looms a massive behemoth. A creature so large that it appears to have an entire castle fortress on its back. Terrifying monsters fly down from that fortress. Huge reptiles with massive, deadly claws, fangs, and too many limbs. These beasts wield magic never seen on Norrath nor by any Norrathian. These creatures, dubbed the Outer Brood by the elders of the Circle of the Crystalwing, speak a form of Elder Dragon that even the oldest of dragons barely understand. At first, they seem to have come to parley with the dragons of Norrath, but conversation quickly turns to contempt, and there seems to be no stopping the battles to come. A horde of powerful creatures prepares to assault Norrath to cleanse the world of what their herald calls "A clear failure to follow scripture."

Norrath has faced assault before, but this time the foe is different. Some farseers have spotted what can only be dragons around the great leviathan as it floats at the top of the sky. Beings so large that few elder Norrathian dragons would stand above their knees! All around the massive leviathan flows a force that defies the understanding of any magic users of Norrath, with power exceeding anything they have seen before. Norrathians of all types, mortal and dragon, have banded together to face this unknown power and attempt to drive them back to wherever they came from. Can you lead the charge against such danger, one that has caused even the fiercest elders of the dragon clans to hesitate?

Hodstock Hills
The shores north of Freeport were neglected by both the human city of Freeport to the south and the dark elf city of Neriak to the north. It acted as a buffer, a neutral zone, for the two groups. While the dark elf settlement Gal`Saris and the large halfling city of Bobble-by-Water had long since been abandoned to time, the small villages of Hodstock (inland) and Temby (on the shore) have held small populations and mostly traded with small cargo ships and Freeport directly. The only other people who really made use of this neutral zone were some bandits escaping from the law, trusting the isolation to keep them away from the watching eyes of Freeport or Neriak. They kept to small encampments with trusted partners and, if needed, went to Temby to trade or seek passage.

However, peace for these towns living in the forgotten and neglected Hodstock Hills was not meant to be. While Temby survived the initial assault from the strange golden dragons and their kin, Hodstock village itself was not as lucky and now sits in ruins with many of their people killed before they escaped. In the southeast, the invaders continue their assault. Even more frightening than the invaders is the massive leviathan that hovers beyond the clouds, looming threateningly above the coast of Hodstock and the city of Freeport just a skip away.

Overview
Bordering Freeport and Nektulos Forest, the northern villages of Hodstock and Temby were the unfortunate recipients of the first waves of the Outer Brood's invasion force. Hodstock is no longer safe. Temby is now part of the frontlines. Bobble-by-Water, empty for a few centuries, also found its rebuilding efforts stopped before they started. The Tower of Noctix no longer thrums with the power of Nightmares, but what still lies inside?

With Norrath as a whole at stake, alongside Freeport forces and Gal`Saris house forces, many dragon factions have come together to help defend Veeshan's claimed world, taking camp at a location they have dubbed the Wyrmqueen's Ridge. It is the jumping off point to take the offensive against the invaders. Do you seek to help defend our world? Start here.

Do you like nostalgia? I like nostalgia.

For those familiar with EQOA, this zone represents Hodstock and Temby, Mu`Lin's Reach, The Green Rift, and Bobble-by-Water (including Shark Island).

The Theater of Eternity
On the back of the leviathan sits an entire city, a city large enough to host an invading army of dragon-sized monsters. And at the front of that city is a military parade ground and practice area. The leviathan's own body protects the space, its scales, and spines somehow coerced to stand upright around the area. They have also used the scales that make up the floor of the parade grounds as barriers against the encroaching forces of Norrath. Despite the defenses and the scalewrought defenders, the structures have suffered from fly-over attacks by the dragons of Norrath and the power of its mortal heroes.

The might of the Norrathians has not been enough. The defenses remain intact, and the cannons still devastate any enemy that dares to step onto or fly over the Theater. A large force of scalewrought guards the structures beyond the Theater of Eternity. Those who would stop this invasion face terrible danger, but we must take the fight to the invaders here to drive them out.

Overview
The Harbinger? The Leviathan? The Beast? The Behemoth? It matters not what it is called but the first step onto it was a doozy. Now that you have reached it, it is time to take the fight to the invaders. The magical interference happening is making it difficult for the wielders of the arcane to land people safely onto the beast. A forward camp must be established and a firm anchor for teleportation needs to be made if there is to be a counter-offensive.

Once the Norrathians establish a foothold, it is time to infiltrate the behemoth to make your way to the leaders of the Aureate. There must be some way inside that isn’t the foreboding front door that looms over the battlefield, but where?

If wandering into no man’s land doesn’t kill you, the creatures picked up along the way surely will.

Aureate Covert
This place serves two main purposes. It shelters and houses the servitors of the great golden dragons, whom Norrathians have interpreted as calling themselves “Aurelians.” It also constantly reminds those servitors how magnanimous and powerful their Draconic masters are. It is clear that the structure, while magnificent, does not accommodate the massive outer brood dragons, as they cannot fit into most of the rooms and corridors. Stepping into such a place, a home for lesser creatures, would demean them. There are no doors in the interior here, since privacy is not a consideration for the servitors, and theft is not even a thought. Until the Norrathians started fighting back, the doors leading out to the Theater of Eternity, which served as defensive structures to prevent enemy invasion, were usually open.

Icons to their masters await the servitors at every turn. But behind all the art and glory given to the dragons, there lies a theme of their goddess Veeshan. Even here, the only being considered greater than the golden dragons, is their creator, Veeshan.

The Harbinger's Cradle
The Harbinger's Cradle received its name for two reasons. It is the place where the small leviathans used as transport vehicles dock, but it is also the place where the Aurelians tend to lay eggs. Perhaps the most shocking thing about this place, beyond the massive scale of it and the powerful creatures that are relegated to grunt work here, is the fact that it is inside the body of the great leviathan. It is a mix of organic and constructed elements. They used the actual bones of the leviathan to craft the stones for building the docks. The deeper areas of the Cradle are hollow spaces inside the living leviathan itself. It is unclear how the Aurelians created these spaces, but it does not seem like they created them by force, such as digging. Or cutting.

The Brood Architect works in the hatchery, filling it with eggs of various types and creating new and more useful servitors. The Brood Architect also allows eggs from existing forms of scalewrought to hatch unhindered as needed.

Overview
Into the belly of the beast and quite literally. Now inside the bowels you will have to venture forth and find out what the Aurelians are up to.

After entering the sewer grate you find yourself in the dark cavernous stench filled insides of the harbinger. The Aurealians seem to have a couple operations in this area and it is your job to disrupt them. You will find yourself with a choice leading out of the cradle and it is for you to decide your fate.

The Chambers of Puissance
Deep inside the body of the great leviathan are vast chambers. These chambers contain structures made from blocks carved from the bones of the leviathan. The Aurelians apparently exposed some of the leviathan’s internal organs here for easy access. Why they desire this access is currently unclear. Even the great beast's massive heart is exposed, and scalewrought of various types can be seen moving around it, sometimes injecting it with what appears to be magically infused liquids.

Apparently to the scalewrought these spaces are nothing unusual. But the pulsating walls and huge visible organs are disturbing to most Norrathians. There is also a mystery here. Significant magic pulses through the spaces, scalewrought go about busily working toward some unknown goal, and still the leviathan survives all of this. If the heroes of Norrath can get past the defenders, exploration of the Chambers of Puissance should yield information that can help defeat the invaders.

Overview
Deep in the belly of the beast, Norrathian scouts seek the details on just how the invaders are controlling their 'transport'. Spoiler: It's less friendly than you think.

While one beastlord is concerned for the sentience and well-being of the massive creature under the Outer Brood's command, several scouts are looking into the operations of the cavernous bodily chambers, from the flesh, the very blood of the beast, and the heavily exposed heart of the leviathan.

The Gilded Spire
Looming above all else on the leviathan is The Gilded Spire. This is the resplendent home of the Aurelian dragons, where their scalewrought servitors supply all of their needs. Lavishly appointed with precious metal, gemstones, and magical lighting, every space is a testament to the glory and power of the Aurelians. Vast ceilings allow space for flight and the heads of colossal statues dedicated to the Aurelian vision of Veeshan. The lower levels are busy with servitors preparing for every whim of the dragons that they serve, but the upper levels remain a mystery to them.

It is the upper levels where the rulers of this small city live and manage their servitors and the war that they must now wage against the children of Veeshan on Norrath. The great general, Usira, organizes his forces in the control room, where they make plans to cleanse the lesser creatures who have failed their duty to Veeshan. And above that is the shrine to the Mother, where the high priest Yaran seeks guidance from Veeshan.

Overview
You’ve worked your way through the bowels of the Harbinger and find yourself in the living quarters and command center of the highest echelon of the Outer Brood. Huge denizens roam these halls, and it would be in your best interest to avoid them as much as possible. The magical studies of the Aurelians can be found here and that information is going to be very useful to the spellcasters of Norrath.

Make your way to the top of the spire and see what dreams may come.
