Griffon guide


Location:
Griffon is one of the top tier raids located in all channels of Vegas Javier

Summoning and respawn time:
For a Griffon to spawn you will need to kill one of the Griffin Eggs. These eggs spawn randomly in a 12hour window after a 36 hour respawn time. These eggs despawn after 20 minutes, making constant scouting very important to cath the egg. the 36 hour respawn time is triggered upon server resets, killing of the Griffon and the despawning of the Griffon Egg.










Difficulty:
Griffon used to be one of the tougher raids, tough it still kinda is. A well equipped master can solo it, but expect around 4-5 expert fams needed to take it down.

Raiding strategy:
Griffon is one of the harder raids due to the high AR and DR and nasty skills. Once a clan finds the egg they canfinally try the raid, killing the egg should pose no problems for 3 or 4 expert families. Griffon is a standard melee raid boss with the adition that it slows all nearby famalies with a curse. (movement speed down) But Griffon also posseses a powerfull area attack that can 1hit most characters. Griffon also spawns mini bosses if it takes to long to kill him, don't underestimate these mini bosses since they can ruin your raid, Luckily these mini bosses despawn when the Griffon dies.

Past v5.02 each time griffon's egg spawns there will be a serverwide notice which even says on what channel his eggs spawns.

    General guides

    Here a small list of links of the guides i've made:

    Rafflesia guide

    Location:
    From zona una there's a warp near the huge central tree (G6) , this warp will take you to the empty part of rafflesia. In here there will be another gate which you need to open to allow access to the raid boss her room.

    Summoning:
    To get access to rafflesia someone needs to open the warp gate in Rafflesia. This gate can be opened with 1 red leaf, 1 green leaf and 1 yellow leaf of rafflesia (Dropped of mobs in zona Uno and Dos).

    Difficulty:
    Rafflesia isn't the hardest of raids but it can be tricky, especially to veteran families.
    Tough good geared experts/master family can solo it, it's recommended to bring 5+ veteran families.


    Raiding strategy:
    Inside the room where the Queen-Eater resides are a lot of random mobs, these mobs can pose a danger to poor equipped veterans. When one of these mobs is killed they can drop a Raflesia Petal which you can click on to get a buff which drastically reduces the dmg Queen-Eater deals.

    In the middle of the map you'll see Queen-Eater with her 3 body parts, each body part can be separately attacked and have their own set of stats.

    None of the Queen-Eater body parts will attack directly, but they can use skills. The torso uses a skill which damages and draws you under the body. The Legs use a similar skill which knocks you back away from the body. And finally the Egg will use a skill which gives can cause confusion.
    When fighting Rafflesia it's important to keep using the Rafflesia petals to prevent yourself from getting onehitted by the skills. If your team has a hard time taking it down you can let some members kill the normal mobs so the top dps team can use petals easily. It is advised to take down the Legs and Torso first so it can no longer use it's dmg skills. However do remember that Torso is considered a flying enemy.

    • lvl 84 elite armors
    • lvl 92 elite armor recipes
    • lvl 100 (27 dr) armors
    • lvl 100 (30 ar) rod and staffs
