CHALLENGE 1

Hold the platform room

#
  • 1 player must go to the center and stand on the green platform for 1 minute.
  • at 50 , 40 , 30 , 20 and 10 seconds , a green egg enemy will appear at the sides of the area. Destroy it ASAP. If not destroyed on time , the egg will launch itself to the middle platform , disabling the platform and adding 5 seconds to the countdown.
    • ☠️ In guild raids , eggs spawn at 54 , 48 , 42 , 36 , 30 , 24 , 18 , 12 and 6 seconds and you have less time to destroy the egg.

#

Hold the tower room

#
  • On the ground there will be several colored spots. 1 of the spots will be marked by circular white particles , indicating where the tower will spawn. 1 player must stand on the marked spot and onto the tower.
    • If no player stands on the white particles , it will spawn in a different location after a few seconds.
    • It is highly recommended a player with range to stand on the tower so they can takeout the horseflies.

#
  • Players below should clear out these enemies called grootslang whelps. They spawn every 5 seconds and they will head towards the tower and attempt to destroy it. If the whelps attack the tower long enough , the tower destroys itself early. The tower automatically decays after 30 seconds. Stand on the tower for 1 minute total to complete the challenge.
    • ☠️ In guild raids , the grootslang whelps spawn every 3 seconds instead.

CHALLENGE 2

Resource room

#
  • There are 3 chambers in this room:
    • cannon room on the left gives 2 resources on clear
    • parkour room straight ahead gives 1 resource on clear
    • miniboss room on the right gives 1 resource on clear
  • Collect resources and bring them back to the starting chamber. Deposit 10 resources to built the tower. Climb it to complete the challenge.

the puzzle chamber

  • Right click the button blocks below the hologram to start the puzzle.
  • To do this puzzle , check the left side of the room to see which rocks needs to be shot down , then use the cannon to move to the spot and shoot the rocks down. Shooting a rock in the wrong color/order resets the puzzle.
    • There are 4 colors of rocks , from left to right they are:
    • Blue - Yellow - Light Blue - Red
  • Once the puzzle is completed , the resources will become collectable. When the resource is collected , the puzzle resets and can be started again.

#
  • Tech: to quickly complete this room , it is best for a shaman , warrior or mage to do puzzle while the other 3 players do the parkour. If 1 player is bad at parkour , it is best for 2 players to do the puzzle for a strategy called "Insta reset cannon"
    • Remember when i said the cannon puzzle resets when a resource is collected? 1 player can do the cannons and when puzzle completes , stay at the cannons and not go collect the resource to wait for puzzle reset , While the "collector" should immediately head to the other side and spam right click on the resource until it is collected (which indicates the puzzle is completed). rush back to deposit it and head back to collect it again. you do NOT have to wait for puzzle to be completed to head to the other side , movement spells work here.
    • If none of the players can do parkour , it is more optimal for 2 players to do cannons and 2 players to do miniboss.
#

CHALLENGE 3

Tunnel room

#
  • When the challenge starts , 1 of the players must take the hammer. They cant use spells , have walk speed reduced but can hit boulders to break them.
    • Tech: it is highly recommended for the highest walk speed player that is NOT a healer (unless there is 2 then go ahead) so they can walk from 1 boulder to the next faster.
  • There are 3 boulders in total , each requiring 5 hits to destroy. As the hammer taker , use the hammer and click on cracks (they look like blocks breaking) to progress on destroying a boulder. DO NOT SPAM THE HAMMER. It has a cooldown so spamming it is pointless.
  • Players not holding the hammer should clear out the mobs. On 60% boulder destruction progress an enemy called the "shelled grub" will spawn. While the game will tell the hammer taker to attack the mob , it is generally better to NOT HIT THE GRUB as it is a waste of time.
    • If you are a warrior , DO NOT cast spells near the boulder as it will cause visual fake cracks which may confuse the hammer taker.
    • If you are a trapper or shaman , DO NOT place traps/totems directly at boulder either as it may cause obstruction.

Miniboss platform room

#
  • The team will have to split into 2: 2 players have to get down while 2 players stay up
  • There will be 4 sets of minibosses total. Players below will have to reach the platform and kill the miniboss there.
  • Once it is killed , the platform will rise to the top and players on the top will have to kill the miniboss there. This cycle repeats a total of 4 times. When the 4th miniboss on the top is killed , the challenge is completed.
    ⚠️ extra raid fail condition: the raid fails if both players on 1 side are dead.

Note that attack names aren't official

  • Unrelenting hunger: chases a player attempting to bite them. If this attack successfully chains a player , it does exponentially more damage.
  • Green sigil: sometimes spawned in the fight. When a shockwave touches a sigil , it spawns a spike that spews out rocks dealing INSANE damage.
  • A mothers love: spawns several grootslang welps and carnivorous plants.
  • Tunneler: the boss buries to the ground and re-emerges very shortly.
  • A mothers wrath: launches a grootslang welp into the air , the boss will quickly rise to consume the welp , restoring a tiny amount of health and restoring its segments
  • Maw rush: the boss will ram towards a wall at lightning speed up to 5 times.
  • Toxic puddles: rains down a few toxic puddles from the ceiling. players standing on them take poison damage.
  • Dive bomb: a player will be targeted indicated by a large green sigil on them. The boss will rise in the air for a few seconds then dive bomb the player. If it hits a player , the player will be unable to move for 3.5 seconds.
  • Ascension dive: spawns alot of green sigils. The boss will ascend to the ceiling in a spiral , raiding down rocks below its body. Once it reaches the top it will fall down in the center and release a shockwave.
  • Earthquake: spawns alot of green sigils on burrow. The boss will burrow 3 times , spawning shockwaves when emerging.
#

extra things to note:

  • The boss is made out of multiple segments and the head. The main target is the head and the segments are a different "enemy" with different health. Destroying a segment does some damage to the boss directly.
    • Exploding and poison can melt the segments quickly dealing high damage.
  • The edges of the arena has a deadly pit. Falling into the pit makes you take MASSIVE damage and launches you back to the center of the arena.
