+
Live Quests, or LQs for short, are game triggered events for which a boss monster appears in the world map or specific maps.
these events are usually considered a high risk high reward events. the boss monsters are always very tanky and considerably resistant to most damage type. they are also very dangerous by having the ability to hit multiple times per round and having strong elemental spells and or recoil damage but on the other hand, have a higher chance of finding rare or even permanent artifacts.
+
  
there are no player level restrictions on those type of events, although you would be competeing wiht mostly demigods (level 50 players) and other high leveled players.
+
'''Once per server instance between 30 minutes and 7 hours server time, one LQ will randomly be triggered and [[#Spawn Locations|the entrance will spawn on the world map at a fixed location]].'''
  
currently there is a peramenet raid boss located in a secluded island 10-15 tiles N of stensel and all the way east.
+
'''If you would like to receive a notification when an LQ happens there is a [https://discordapp.com/invite/G2WQZEr discord channel] that notifies user's with the LQ role when an LQ happens.'''
the map and boss reset like any map in the game, after 20minutes of idel state (ie any peeking inside the map will reset the counter). players are usually seen hanging out in the map before the raid boss wiating for the timer to pass.

These events are usually considered high risk, high reward events. The boss monsters are always very tanky and considerably resistant to most damage types. They are also very dangerous by having the ability to hit multiple times per round, and typically have strong elemental spells and/or recoil damage. To make up for the risk, players will typically earn high level loot after slaying the boss.
  
==rewards==
+
There are no player level restrictions on those type of events, but players will typically recommend being level 20+ to participate for both survivability and damage contribution reasons. Note that when loot is split at the end, it is based off of damage done, so lower level players will likely receive a much smaller reward than higher level players.
  
rewards for killing the raid boss is distributed to any participating player realive to damage dealt. participant can expect to get anywhere from 1-2001 tokens based on their contributions.
+
==Rewards==
  
after the raid boss is killed, an explosion of loot fills the area. players can redeem their loot tokkens for any of the loot found, in a first come first serve basis.
+
* Rewards for killing the raid boss are distributed to any participating player relative to damage dealt.
 +
* Participants can expect to get anywhere from 1-2001 tokens based on their contributions.
 +
* Tears (a non-tradable character bound currency), are distributed based on damage done to the boss.
 +
* '''Tears can be used to purchase items at [[:Category:Tear Item|Sesha's House of Tears]]'''.

New Verden Blacksmith (low level items)
+
'''Bauhdyre appears to blink periodically, it might be the same mechanic as Entremitis where it teleports to a random player'''
  
Alaria Tavern (low level items)
+
====Melee Strategy====
  
Oxbow Wildlife Sanctuary Souvenir Shop (45 squares East & 10 South from Stoneybrook)
+
Use the highest WC [[Smash Damage|smash]], [[Cut Damage|cut]], or [[Stab Damage|stab]] damage weapon you have.
  
Eastern Arch Ninja Guild (Floor 15, 36 squares West & 23 North from Stensele, difficult to access for non-Ninjas)
+
'''Aim to get [[Fire Resistance|fire immunity]] and as much [[Smash Resistance|smash resistance]] and AC as possible.'''
  
 +
Since Bauhdyre has no debuff wave, you could cover shock resistance with an endurance potion.
  
Restricted due to Guild, Race, or VIP:
+
Don't forget about [[Death Resistance]], [[Amulet of Death Protection]] works nicely on this boss.
  
Almien Archer Guild
+
====Mage Strategy====
  
Caveman Guild
+
Stay out of magma splash' range, it does a large amount of fire and smash damage.
  
Varak Axeman Guild
+
This is the most mage unfriendly boss, don't expect to do much damage with your spells.
  
Vesimas Naga only
+
Cold resistance seems somewhat reasonable, maybe use frostflame.
  
Minath VIP Lounge
+
Sandstorm might work too, even if it has a low tick rate.
 +
 
 +
Poison might do better but will probably end up doing little if any damage since players overwrite each other's poison.
 +
 
 +
====Archer Strategy====
 +
 
 +
Stay out of magma splash' range, it does a large amount of fire and smash damage.
 +
 
 +
This probably takes you out of autofire range so you may have to fire manually.
 +
 
 +
If you have the right gear you might be able to endure.
 +
 
 +
'''Aim to get [[Fire Resistance|fire immunity]] and as much [[Smash Resistance|smash resistance]] and AC as possible.'''

 +
 
 +
 
 +
====Getting to Entremitis====
 +
Aside from the kill-everything maps on the way in, there is a Worthiness puzzle to complete consisting of 5 statues on a map with enemies. Once you clear the enemies, one player will have to solve the puzzle. Multiple people solving it can interrupt the process, reports have suggested.
 +
 
 +
Each statue has a hidden value from 1-5. They must be interacted with in the correct order, however if you interact with a statue whose number is lower than the number before it, you will be deemed Unworthy and start over.
 +
 
 +
Ex: If you go 1-3-2, you will be unworthy.
 +
 
 +
While interacting with the statues, try to keep track of which ones make you unworthy following another, writing it down can help.
 +
 
 +
Once you discover which statue gets an unworthy response when following all others, you can confirm it's the first to click.
 +
 
 +
Ex: 2-4-1, 2-3-1, 2-5-1, 3-2-1 will all fail, so the statue being clicked last in each of these combinations is definitely statue #1 and should begin all subsequent patterns.
 +
 
 +
Once you are declared Worthy 5 times in a row, speak to the NPC near the gates in the north of the map to lower the gates and proceed.
 +
 
 +
====Melee Strategy====
 +
 
 +
Ideally use a weapon that does [[Magic Damage]].
 +
 
 +
Otherwise simply use the highest WC [[Smash Damage|smash]], [[Cut Damage|cut]], or [[Stab Damage|stab]] damage weapon you have.
 +
 
 +
Since Entremitis has debuff wave, you will need to get all your resists from your equipment unless you plan on drinking A LOT of endurance potions.
 +
 
 +
Aim to get immunity to either [[Cold Resistance|cold]] or [[Shock Resistance|shock]].
 +
 
 +
Don't forget about [[Death Resistance]], [[Amulet of Death Protection]] works nicely on this boss.
 +
 
 +
=====Example human gear=====
 +
 
 +
This will give 50 dodge, shock immunity, 65% cold resistance, 50% melee resistance, and at least 70% death resistance.
 +
 
 +
If possible, use 2 or 3 [[Upgrading Weapon & Armor#Upgrading Overview|upgrade slots]] on other items to get cold resistance up to 90%.

 +
====Mage Strategy====
 +
 
 +
Stay out of earthquake/debuff wave range.
 +
 
 +
The best damage spell for this boss is dragon breath, assuming you have high fire skill.
 +
 
 +
Frostflame is okay too but its damage doesn't scale as well as dragon breath.
 +
 
 +
Sandstorm will work but the hits per second is low so don't expect it to perform well.
 +
 
 +
Poison will probably end up doing little if any damage since players overwrite each other's poison.
 +
 
 +
====Archer Strategy====
 +
 
 +
Stay out of the earthquake/debuff wave range and turn on autofire.

====Getting to the Polyphemus====
 +
 
 +
 
 +
=====First map=====
 +
 
 +
Generally, need at least two people for this map.
 +
 
 +
It is possible to do it solo if you summon an arch shoggolich or a kalidemon. But you might need to use create earth wall to stop your summon from moving and really fast movement speed to make this work.
 +

 +
=====Second map=====
 +
 
 +
This map is soloable. Damage a kalidemon until it runs from you and use it to push the buttons for you.
 +
 
 +
Order is west room, east room, north room, south room and finally a lever centre room.
 +
 
 +
{|
 +
|[[File:Poly2 gate w.png|thumbnail|Stand on the button in the west room, this should lower the gates of the east room.]]

=====Third map=====
 +
 
 +
Simple maze, kill everything and progress to the next map.
 +
 
 +
====Strategy====
 +
 
 +
=====Melee Strategy=====
 +
 
 +
Use the highest WC [[Smash Damage|smash]], [[Cut Damage|cut]], or [[Stab Damage|stab]] damage weapon you have.
 +
 
 +
Other elemental weapons with high WC might do well, since it seems Polyphemus has more melee resistance than elemental resistance.
 +
 
 +
'''Aim to get as much [[Smash Resistance|smash resistance]] and AC as possible.'''
 +
 
 +
Don't forget about [[Death Resistance]], [[Amulet of Death Protection]] works nicely on this boss.
 +
 
 +
=====Mage Strategy=====
 +
 
 +
Stay out of earthquake's range, it does a large amount of smash damage.
 +
 
 +
Use dragon breath or thunderstorm.
 +
 
 +
Poison might do better but will probably end up doing little if any damage since players overwrite each other's poison.
 +
 
 +

 +
 
 +
'''You need [[Acid Resistance|acid resistance]], otherwise you will have a bad time.'''
 +
 
 +
There are purple miasma tiles that do acid damage on most of the map.
 +
 
 +
====Melee Strategy====
 +
 
 +
'''Ideally, use a weapon that does [[Cold Damage]].'''
 +
 
 +
Otherwise simply use the highest WC [[Smash Damage|smash]], [[Cut Damage|cut]], or [[Stab Damage|stab]] damage weapon you have.
 +
 
 +
'''Aim to get immunity to [[Acid Resistance|acid]] and [[Magic Resistance|magic resistance]] as high as possible.'''
 +
 
 +
Don't forget about [[Death Resistance]], [[Amulet of Death Protection]] works nicely on this boss.
 +
 
 +
====Mage Strategy====
 +
 
 +
You need [[Acid Resistance|acid resistance]], otherwise you will have a bad time.
 +
 
 +
If you really can't get much acid resistance, hide in the small pockets of water to avoid the purple miasma.

Revision as of 15:22, 19 September 2022

Live Quests, or LQs for short, are game triggered events for which a boss monster appears in the world map or specific maps.

Once per server instance between 30 minutes and 7 hours server time, one LQ will randomly be triggered and the entrance will spawn on the world map at a fixed location.

If you would like to receive a notification when an LQ happens there is a discord channel that notifies user's with the LQ role when an LQ happens.

These events are usually considered high risk, high reward events. The boss monsters are always very tanky and considerably resistant to most damage types. They are also very dangerous by having the ability to hit multiple times per round, and typically have strong elemental spells and/or recoil damage. To make up for the risk, players will typically earn high level loot after slaying the boss.

There are no player level restrictions on those type of events, but players will typically recommend being level 20+ to participate for both survivability and damage contribution reasons. Note that when loot is split at the end, it is based off of damage done, so lower level players will likely receive a much smaller reward than higher level players.

Rewards

  • Rewards for killing the raid boss are distributed to any participating player relative to damage dealt.
  • Participants can expect to get anywhere from 1-2001 tokens based on their contributions.
  • Tears (a non-tradable character bound currency), are distributed based on damage done to the boss.
  • Tears can be used to purchase items at Sesha's House of Tears.
Total damage ranges (%) # Tears

[2, 4) 2
[4, 9) 3

Boss Information

Bauhdyre

Bauhdyre
Bauhdyre.S.png Bauhdyre.W.png Bauhdyre.N.png Bauhdyre.E.png
Spells Thunderstorm, Magma Splash, Death Ray
Resistances Cold, Smash, Cut, Stab, Poison, Magic, Acid
Immunities Fire, Shock, Fear, Confusion, Paralysis, Slow, Charm, Petrification, Death

Bauhdyre appears to blink periodically, it might be the same mechanic as Entremitis where it teleports to a random player

Melee Strategy

Use the highest WC smash, cut, or stab damage weapon you have.

Aim to get fire immunity and as much smash resistance and AC as possible.

Since Bauhdyre has no debuff wave, you could cover shock resistance with an endurance potion.

Don't forget about Death Resistance, Amulet of Death Protection works nicely on this boss.

Mage Strategy

Stay out of magma splash' range, it does a large amount of fire and smash damage.

This is the most mage unfriendly boss, don't expect to do much damage with your spells.

Cold resistance seems somewhat reasonable, maybe use frostflame.

Sandstorm might work too, even if it has a low tick rate.

Poison might do better but will probably end up doing little if any damage since players overwrite each other's poison.

Archer Strategy

Stay out of magma splash' range, it does a large amount of fire and smash damage.

This probably takes you out of autofire range so you may have to fire manually.

If you have the right gear you might be able to endure.

Aim to get fire immunity and as much smash resistance and AC as possible.

Entremitis

Entremitis
Entremitis.S.png Entremitis.W.png Entremitis.N.png Entremitis.E.png
Spells Debuff wave, Wrath of the Gods, Earthquake, Death Ray
Resistances Fire, Cold, Smash, Cut, Stab, Poison
Immunities Shock, Fear, Confusion, Paralysis, Slow, Charm, Petrification, Death

Note that Entremitis occasionally will teleport to a random player on the map


Getting to Entremitis

Aside from the kill-everything maps on the way in, there is a Worthiness puzzle to complete consisting of 5 statues on a map with enemies. Once you clear the enemies, one player will have to solve the puzzle. Multiple people solving it can interrupt the process, reports have suggested.

Each statue has a hidden value from 1-5. They must be interacted with in the correct order, however if you interact with a statue whose number is lower than the number before it, you will be deemed Unworthy and start over.

Ex: If you go 1-3-2, you will be unworthy.

While interacting with the statues, try to keep track of which ones make you unworthy following another, writing it down can help.

Once you discover which statue gets an unworthy response when following all others, you can confirm it's the first to click.

Ex: 2-4-1, 2-3-1, 2-5-1, 3-2-1 will all fail, so the statue being clicked last in each of these combinations is definitely statue #1 and should begin all subsequent patterns.

Once you are declared Worthy 5 times in a row, speak to the NPC near the gates in the north of the map to lower the gates and proceed.

Melee Strategy

Ideally use a weapon that does Magic Damage.

Otherwise simply use the highest WC smash, cut, or stab damage weapon you have.

Since Entremitis has debuff wave, you will need to get all your resists from your equipment unless you plan on drinking A LOT of endurance potions.

Aim to get immunity to either cold or shock.

Don't forget about Death Resistance, Amulet of Death Protection works nicely on this boss.

Example human gear

This will give 50 dodge, shock immunity, 65% cold resistance, 50% melee resistance, and at least 70% death resistance.

If possible, use 2 or 3 upgrade slots on other items to get cold resistance up to 90%.

Armor slot Item
Helm Any +10 agility Helm
Mask Any
Amulet Amulet of Death Protection
Cloak Cloak of the Lion +10 agility
Chest Blue Dragon Scale Mail +10 agility
Waist Sokoban Wizard's Girdle
Shield Mithril Shield +10 agility
Ring 1 Ring of Melee Resistance
Ring 2 Ring of Enhanced Protection
Gloves Any +10 agility Gloves
Wrist Chilling Bracelet
Feet +10 Snow Boots 2 slots used on Cold Resistance
Example Rakshasa gear

This will give 40 dodge, shock immunity, 90% cold resistance, 45% melee resistance, and 90% death resistance.

If you want more dodge, you could swap the +10 ice sock/snow boots for +10 agility versions.

Armor slot Item
Helm Any +10 agility Helm
Mask Any
Amulet Amulet of Death Protection
Cloak Cloak of the Lion +10 agility
Chest Blue Dragon Scale Mail +10 agility
Waist Sokoban Wizard's Girdle
Ring 1 Ring of Melee Resistance
Ring 2 Ring of Enhanced Protection
Gloves +10 Ice Sock 2 slots used on Cold Resistance
Wrist Sokoban Wizard's Bracers
Feet +10 Snow Boots 2 slots used on Cold Resistance


Mage Strategy

Stay out of earthquake/debuff wave range.

The best damage spell for this boss is dragon breath, assuming you have high fire skill.

Frostflame is okay too but its damage doesn't scale as well as dragon breath.

Sandstorm will work but the hits per second is low so don't expect it to perform well.

Poison will probably end up doing little if any damage since players overwrite each other's poison.

Archer Strategy

Stay out of the earthquake/debuff wave range and turn on autofire.

Immunities Fear, Confusion, Paralysis, Slow, Charm, Petrification, Death

Polyphemus occassionally banishes all players on the map (teleports them to random locations)

WARNING! Polyphemus' earthquake is very strong

Getting to the Polyphemus

First map

Generally, need at least two people for this map.

It is possible to do it solo if you summon an arch shoggolich or a kalidemon. But you might need to use create earth wall to stop your summon from moving and really fast movement speed to make this work.

Pull all the levers to the right. This should lower gates 1, 2, 8, 9, and 10.

Gate 3. Stand of the button just south east of the trees by the east stairs.
Gate 4. Stand on the button in the north west corner area, south east of the boulder.
Gate 5. Stand on the circled button in the southwest of the map.
Gate 6. Stand on the button that is just west of the gates.
Gate 7. Stand on the circled button southwest of the map.
Second map

This map is soloable. Damage a kalidemon until it runs from you and use it to push the buttons for you.

Order is west room, east room, north room, south room and finally a lever centre room.

Stand on the button in the west room, this should lower the gates of the east room.
Stand on the button in the east room, this should lower the gates of the north room.
Stand on the button in the north room, this should lower the gates of the south room.
Stand on the button in the south room, this should lower the gates of the centre room.
Pull the lever in the centre room to open the gates to the next map.
Third map

Simple maze, kill everything and progress to the next map.

Strategy

Melee Strategy

Use the highest WC smash, cut, or stab damage weapon you have.

Other elemental weapons with high WC might do well, since it seems Polyphemus has more melee resistance than elemental resistance.

Aim to get as much smash resistance and AC as possible.

Don't forget about Death Resistance, Amulet of Death Protection works nicely on this boss.

Mage Strategy

Stay out of earthquake's range, it does a large amount of smash damage.

Use dragon breath or thunderstorm.

Poison might do better but will probably end up doing little if any damage since players overwrite each other's poison.

Archer Strategy

Stay out of earthquake's range, it does a large amount of smash damage.

Note that Zyxxrytth occasionally will spawn with artifact weapon that has 500 stab wc and slay demon, Raks will die very quickly if this is the case.

You need acid resistance, otherwise you will have a bad time.

There are purple miasma tiles that do acid damage on most of the map.

Melee Strategy

Ideally, use a weapon that does Cold Damage.

Otherwise simply use the highest WC smash, cut, or stab damage weapon you have.

Aim to get immunity to acid and magic resistance as high as possible.

Don't forget about Death Resistance, Amulet of Death Protection works nicely on this boss.

Mage Strategy

If you really can't get much acid resistance, hide in the small pockets of water to avoid the purple miasma.

Otherwise, just use dragon breath or thunderstorm.

Archer Strategy

You need acid resistance, otherwise you will have a bad time.
