==Introduction== | |||
This is a {{Icon|Barrier}} dungeon introduced with the {{AoD}}[[Atlas of Discovery Expansion]], there is a general guide to this dungeon and a more in-depth look into {{Icon|Barrier}} combat in general in [[Barrier/Guide|this guide]]. This page will go deeper into combat options, including when {{TotH}}[[Throne of the Herald Expansion]] is owned and already completed.<br> | |||
This guide is not meant for optimal kills per hour but instead focuses on easily obtainable ways ranging from just passed God Dungeons to having beaten {{ZoneIcon|Throne of the Herald}} to clear the dungeon effectively. | This guide is not meant for optimal kills per hour but instead focuses on easily obtainable ways ranging from just passed God Dungeons to having beaten {{ZoneIcon|Throne of the Herald}} to clear the dungeon effectively. | ||

<br/> | There are two different ways of approaching this Dungeon: | ||
# Just get the Dungeon first clear over with as soon as possible to get your Skill Cap Increases and gain access to {{ZoneIcon|Impending Darkness Event}}. This would include not grinding out {{ZoneIcon|Underwater Ruins}} for it's weapons. | |||
# The second would be to grind (B) God armor pieces and one or more weapons from {{ZoneIcon|Underwater Ruins}}. | |||
==General Guidance== | |||
Contrary to all previous [[Dungeons]], some minor {{Skill|Astrology}} investment is highly recommended. Specifically obtaining the 8% [[Accuracy]] stars in the [[Constellations]] {{ConstellationIcon|Iridan}}, {{ConstellationIcon|Terra}}, {{ConstellationIcon|Vale}}, {{ConstellationIcon|Syllia}} and {{ConstellationIcon|Arachi}}. The [[Relics|Master Relic]] will not be required, nor will any other Stars. | |||
Due to the regen mechanics of both the {{Icon|Barrier}} and Health of the boss, it would be advised to Manual Eat as little as possible, for this reason as much [[Damage Reduction]] as possible will be packed on for this Dungeons Boss {{MonsterIcon|Nagaia}}. <br> | |||
Additionally, because of the high regen capabilities of the Monsters {{Icon|Barrier}} it is highly recommended to follow the [[Combat Triangle]], this means a {{Skill|Ranged}} setup for waves 1 and 2, [[Melee]] for waves 3 and 4, {{Skill|Magic}} setup for waves 5 and 6, {{Skill|Ranged}} for waves 7 and 8, and finally [[Melee]] for the 9th and final wave. Active switching styles is highly recommended as the Dungeon will go much faster this way. A setup for each combat style is included in this guide. <br> | |||
While it is entirely possible to do this Dungeon completely [[Idle]] at this point, however it depends greatly on which [[Relics]] have been obtained. <br> | |||
Following the instructions and suggested setups from this guide will not require Manual Eating at all. However it will require switching between Combat Styles to the suggested Style listed in the above paragraph. | |||
{{ItemIcon|Eradicating Gloves (m)}} are the Best in Slot gloves for the rest of the game, they however have a very low drop chance. It most likely isn't worth farming for these gloves until you have both a few (B) [[Terran God Armour]] set pieces and {{Skill|Summoning}} Relic #4. | |||
==Option 1: Rush First Clear== | |||
These setups notably do '''not''' require: | |||
* Any Weapons from {{ZoneIcon|Underwater Ruins}} | |||
* Any (B) God Armors | |||
* {{SkillReq|Smithing|99}} (for {{ItemIcon|Imbued Dragonite Bar}}) | |||
* Over {{SkillReq|Agility|50}}, Obstacle 6 is good enough. | |||
See the specific sections for advice per style. | |||
===Agility=== | |||
This guide assumes that {{Skill|Agility}} has not been progressed beyond obstacle 6, as it is very slow to level before beating {{ZoneIcon|Impending Darkness Event}}. | |||

}} | |||
---- | |||
===Melee=== | |||
Used for waves: 3,4,9 | |||
This is the setup that will be used for the boss, attempting any other style will result in Death at this stage. | |||
It will require at least 70% [[Damage Reduction]] and 1010 {{Skill|Hitpoints|HP}} or 71% if you're want to be 100% safe. (70% has roughly 0.004 Deaths per hour, 71% eliminates the Death Chance entirely) <br> | |||
You can replace {{ItemIcon|Fury of the Elemental Zodiacs}} and {{ItemIcon|Tormented Ring}} with any combination of [[Amulet]] and [[Ring]] of choice as long as 2/3% [[Damage Reduction]] is gained from those 2 Item Slots combined. <br> | |||
{{Skill|Defence}} [[Relics|Relic #5]] provides a bite more wiggle room replacing the need for [[Damage Reduction]] from either [[Amulet]] or [[Ring]], if this Relic is obtained it {{ItemIcon|Adaptive Summoning Amulet}} and {{ItemIcon|Tormented Ring}} would be the best options. | |||
====Gear==== | |||
{{ItemIcon|Sunset Rapier}} or {{ItemIcon|Ancient Claw}} can be used instead of {{ItemIcon|Infernal Claw}} for slightly lower clear speed. | |||

==Option 2: Take it slow and grind== | |||
This is a list of the most effective things to do (assuming sufficient skill cap) to make Option 1 faster and safer. | |||
Key upgrades over Option 1:<br /> | |||
#Unlock {{ZoneIcon|Underwater Ruins}} for better weapons. Requires {{SkillReq|Archaeology|90}}, {{SkillReq|Cartography|90}}, {{SkillReq|Runecrafting|81}}. | |||
#*{{ItemIcon|Engulfing Vortex Longbow}}, from {{MonsterIcon|Mermaid Archer}}. | |||
#**This will be the best {{Skill|Ranged}} weapon all the way until {{SkillReq|Ranged|120}}... | |||
#**... with the possible exception of {{ItemIcon|Divine Crossbow}} and {{ItemIcon|Divine Javelin}}, which require {{SkillReq|Fletching|111}}, {{SkillReq|Woodcutting|112}}, and {{SkillReq|Smithing|119}} for both. | |||
#*{{ItemIcon|Water Pulse Staff}} is also a very good weapon which will last until {{SkillReq|Magic|120}} | |||
#**It is slightly worse than {{Skill|Runecrafting}} alternatives but does not require {{Skill|Runecrafting}} to be leveled above around Level 85. | |||
#**However, {{SkillReq|Runecrafting|112}} may be desired to unlock Archaic spells. | |||
#*These enemies also drop {{ItemIcon|Devouring Barrier Gem}}. | |||
#*If a [[Magic]] Set is chosen, {{ItemIcon|Malevolent Ward Shield}} can be obtained from {{POIIcon|Lost Temple}} (since {{POIIcon|Lost Temple}} is required to unlock {{ZoneIcon|Underwater Ruins}} anyway), this is a small upgrade. | |||
# Craft (B) versions of [[God Equipment|God Armour]], e.g. {{ItemIcon|Terran God Platebody (B)}} | |||
#*This requires {{SkillReq|Smithing|99}} and a lot of {{ItemIcon|Barrier Dust}} for {{ItemIcon|Imbued Dragonite Bar}} - which fortunately will be obtained while farming for {{ItemIcon|Engulfing Vortex Longbow}}. | |||
#**When crafting {{ItemIcon|Imbued Dragonite Bar}} it is highly advised to get as much +1 additional resource chance as possible ([[Relics|Smithing Relic #3]] 50%, {{ItemIcon|Mining Lantern}} 30%, {{POIIcon|Ragnar Dungeon Ruins}} 10/20%, {{UpgradeIcon|Magic Anvil}} 10%), as well as getting the stacking/separate extra resource modifier from the {{Synergy|Ent|Salamander}} Synergy. <br> | |||
#** When all these buffs are obtained, it should lower the amount of {{ItemIcon|Barrier Dust}} needed for a complete set from 96,000 to roughly 43,600. | |||
#** Some {{ItemIcon|Imbued Dragonite Bar}} will be obtained from {{ZoneIcon|Cult Grounds}} while grinding out the {{ItemIcon|Siphoning Barrier Gem}} required for the (B) upgrades, this is however an unreliable way to obtain {{ItemIcon|Imbued Dragonite Bar}} as it will require 241 clears on average to get enough bars for 1 piece. | |||
#* It is advised to upgrade [[Terran God Armour]] first, particularly the {{ItemIcon|Terran God Boots (B)|Boots}}, {{ItemIcon|Terran God Platelegs (B)|Platelegs}} and {{ItemIcon|Terran God Platebody (B)|Platebody}}. The Helm and Gloves will be replaced at a later point with the {{ItemIcon|Hood of Shade Summon|Necromancers Palace Summon Set}} and thus have a lower priority to be upgraded at this point. | |||
When going for this option, making the choice to do the {{ZoneIcon|Underwater Ruins}} grinding before {{ZoneIcon|Underwater City}} can be worth it as you also gain (B) [[God Equipment|God Armour]] from doing this, making the clear speed on {{ZoneIcon|Underwater City}} faster. <br> | |||
The setups from the first method can be applied to this method, simply replace any gained (B) [[Terran God Armour]] for their normal counterparts. <br> | |||
Also be sure to use {{ItemIcon|Devouring Barrier Gem}} over {{ItemIcon|Siphoning Barrier Gem}}. | |||

There are two different ways of approaching this Dungeon:
- Just get the Dungeon first clear over with as soon as possible to get your Skill Cap Increases and gain access to Error creating thumbnail: File missingImpending Darkness Event. This would include not grinding out
Underwater Ruins for it's weapons.
- The second would be to grind (B) God armor pieces and one or more weapons from
Underwater Ruins.

Option 1: Rush First Clear
These setups notably do not require:
- Any Weapons from
Underwater Ruins
- Any (B) God Armors
- Error creating thumbnail: File missingLevel 99 (for
Imbued Dragonite Bar)
- Over Error creating thumbnail: File missingLevel 50, Obstacle 6 is good enough.

Option 2: Take it slow and grind
This is a list of the most effective things to do (assuming sufficient skill cap) to make Option 1 faster and safer.
Key upgrades over Option 1:
- Unlock
Underwater Ruins for better weapons. Requires
Error creating thumbnail: File missingLevel 90,Error creating thumbnail: File missingLevel 90,Error creating thumbnail: File missingLevel 81.Engulfing Vortex Longbow, from
Error creating thumbnail: File missingMermaid Archer.- This will be the best Error creating thumbnail: File missingRanged weapon all the way untilError creating thumbnail: File missingLevel 120...
- ... with the possible exception of
Divine Crossbow and
Divine Javelin, which require
Error creating thumbnail: File missingLevel 111,Error creating thumbnail: File missingLevel 112, andError creating thumbnail: File missingLevel 119 for both.
- This will be the best
Water Pulse Staff is also a very good weapon which will last until
Error creating thumbnail: File missingLevel 120- It is slightly worse than Error creating thumbnail: File missingRunecrafting alternatives but does not requireError creating thumbnail: File missingRunecrafting to be leveled above around Level 85.
- However, Error creating thumbnail: File missingLevel 112 may be desired to unlock Archaic spells.
- It is slightly worse than
- These enemies also drop
Devouring Barrier Gem.
- If a Magic Set is chosen,
Malevolent Ward Shield can be obtained from
Lost Temple (since
Lost Temple is required to unlock
Underwater Ruins anyway), this is a small upgrade.
- Craft (B) versions of God Armour, e.g.
Terran God Platebody (B)
- This requires Error creating thumbnail: File missingLevel 99 and a lot of
Barrier Dust for
Imbued Dragonite Bar - which fortunately will be obtained while farming for
Engulfing Vortex Longbow.
- When crafting
Imbued Dragonite Bar it is highly advised to get as much +1 additional resource chance as possible (Smithing Relic #3 50%,
Mining Lantern 30%,
Ragnar Dungeon Ruins 10/20%,
Magic Anvil 10%), as well as getting the stacking/separate extra resource modifier from the
Error creating thumbnail: File missingEntError creating thumbnail: File missingSalamander Synergy. - When all these buffs are obtained, it should lower the amount of
Barrier Dust needed for a complete set from 96,000 to roughly 43,600.
- Some
Imbued Dragonite Bar will be obtained from
Cult Grounds while grinding out the
Siphoning Barrier Gem required for the (B) upgrades, this is however an unreliable way to obtain
Imbued Dragonite Bar as it will require 241 clears on average to get enough bars for 1 piece.
- When crafting
- It is advised to upgrade Terran God Armour first, particularly the
Boots,
Platelegs and
Platebody. The Helm and Gloves will be replaced at a later point with the
Necromancers Palace Summon Set and thus have a lower priority to be upgraded at this point.
- This requires
When going for this option, making the choice to do the Underwater Ruins grinding before
Underwater City can be worth it as you also gain (B) God Armour from doing this, making the clear speed on
Underwater City faster.
The setups from the first method can be applied to this method, simply replace any gained (B) Terran God Armour for their normal counterparts.
Also be sure to use Devouring Barrier Gem over
Siphoning Barrier Gem.
