Instanced Fire Gate guide



Location:
Fire gate or gate of fire can be accessed from topolo durga channel 1, open the mini map and go to the place where gate of fire is written on the map (D5).

Summoning and respawn time:

Like the other instanced raids you will need Fire crystal and 1 Fire gate lobby key on every participant. The instanced warp portal is still inside the temple, but it is not the normal gate just head to D5 and you'll see it soon. Fire Crystal needs 1 fire orb, 5 fire stones and 200 shiny crystals. As usual Federigo in Auch crafts it.
To buy the lobby key you need 60 shiny crystals, the boy in the tunnel in auch sells them.
Once inside you'll still need to summon Lava Leaf, he'll be summoned once you activated all 10 summoning stations in the map. To activate a station drag a fire orb from inventory atop the station and select 1.
Unlike the normal Fire Gate the last summoning station attacked will become hostile to the mobs, if one of the summoning stations is destroyed lava leaf will despawn and all summoning stations will be reset.


Difficulty:
This is easily one of the harder and suprising instanced raids, especially with the 5 ar/dr increase of Lava Leaf.
You'll need several strong elementalists vs him with ice dmg stances, so i'd bet you'll need 3+ master fams or 5+ expert fams + 1 family to defend the last station.

Strategy:
Strategy for the raid is pretty straightforward, use the orbs on the summoning stations and spawn a lava leaf, drag him to a corner with a low spawnrate of mobs, get char to tank him and let rest dps and buff.
However unlike the normal variant, the last summoning station will turn hostile to mobs! so be extremely carefull as it has little hp. Keep lava leaf away from it so his aoes can't hit it.
Buffs are still very important vs this boss fight, be it to survive or to deal dmg. Lava plasma is best used if you can't survive his attacks/aoe's to well, ice plasma is ideal for dealing more dmg since he's weak to ice, but he'll deal more dmg then with fire plasma on. Antimagic boosts resistances and jarring tune help survive even more but jarring tune comes at the cost of -10% atk. All depends on what you prefer.
Again he's weak to ice so expert eles with ice bracelets deal most dmg to him, outrage musks are also good for dps of course. He can also use his selffbuff skill Aurora to gain 200 def, which makes wiz dispell also very useful here. Unlike his weaker normal version he won't just give up and you can expect quite a fight from him.

Instanced Uranus guide


Location:
The lobby leading to Instanced Uranus can be found in Bahamar, Underground cave 1st floor in I9 on the Murky side.

Summoning and respawn time:
To get to this version of the raid you'll need a Uranus scale and every participant needs a Uranus lobby key.
The Scale can be gotten from Federigo in auch and needs 2 scale pieces and 200 shiny crystals. (scale pieces are gotten in New Opuluto in exchange for 200 Explorer team Memo's at the vagabond).
To buy the lobby key you need 60 shiny crystals, the boy in the tunnel in auch sells them.

Difficulty:
Uranus isn't the hardest raid, but it can be annoying mostly due to the tons of minnions and poisoning effect which lowers defense. Do note that whoever kills the minions gets poisoned, you can break the eggs without a worry of getting poisoned. If your gear is good enough you could solo it without killing minnions at all.
1 Master family can solo it usually, tough it's recommended to bring 2+ expert fams if you're not as well prepared.

Strategy:
Uranus has 4 stages in wich you fight him, before each stage you'll need to kill all the uranus eggs to be able to attack Uranus. During the first 3 stages when his hp is low he'll hide underwater to recover. When that happens all the eggs respawn. In total you need to kill all the eggs 4 times and kill Uranus 4 times.
When fighting the eggs, keep in mind that every egg killed spawns around 10 minions which can be a problem if there are to much of them. Whoever kills a minion also gets a 5 minute AR, atk and def debuff wich is a royal pain in the ass. When finally facing Uranus, do remember that his attacks are physical of type so prot field will greatly reduce the dmg. Outrage musks are best given a protection field to make sure they survive the attacks. A other way to save the dps group is by letting a tanker provoke away from the main dps group and lure Uranus his attacks on him. Do note that who ever has top dmg on Uranus with a single char in the last form will get all the drops!!! so it's advises to keep the top dps free of the minion's poison.

Loot:

  • Lv 100 Weapon (30 ar)
  • Lv 92 Elite Armor Recipe
  • Lv 96 Elite Armor Recipe
  • Lv 100 Elite Weapon recipe
  • Recipe - Elite Schivarlier Armor
  • Recipe - Le Noir
  • Recipe - Dragon Heart

Reward box (2 drops):
  • Constellation box or
  • Mega Talt
