Standard Guide
Basic Guide
This is a Barrier dungeon introduced with the Atlas of Discovery Expansion, there is a general guide to this dungeon and a more in-depth look into Barrier combat in general in this guide. This page will go deeper into combat options, including when Throne of the Herald Expansion is owned and already completed.

Continue using your Aeris God armour setup for this dungeon. These monsters do not have the mechanic where they base their max hit off of the player's max hit, a crossbow with bolts can be used. As soon as enough Barrier Exalted Shard and Siphoning Barrier Gem have been obtained to upgrade the first item, it is advised to go collect barrier dust. All of the individual armour pieces have the same passive effect, so the order in which they are upgraded doesn't matter. Start with the armour piece that costs the fewest Barrier Shards and Siphoning Gems (You can skip the helm for now if you've got the Shade Summoning set).
Item | Upgrade Cost |
---|---|
4 Barrier Exalted Shard 2 Siphoning Barrier Gem | |
10 Barrier Exalted Shard 5 Siphoning Barrier Gem | |
6 Barrier Exalted Shard 3 Siphoning Barrier Gem | |
5 Barrier Exalted Shard 5 Siphoning Barrier Gem |
Collect enough barrier dust to obtain 2,000 Imbued Dragonite Bar. Upgrade your armour piece and move back to the Cult Grounds dungeon until enough materials have been obtained for the next upgrade. Repeat this cycle until the full Aeris armour has been obtained. Finally, also upgrade a pair of (U) Ancient D-hide Vambraces as they are slightly better than the previously used Barrier Draining Gloves (Not required if you have the Shade Summon set).
Equipment
Recommended starting gear is similar to that of the previous dungeon.
You can mix and match the gear.

Dust Farming
The following gear is starter gear to farm cult imps for barrier. If you do not have Big ol Ron, simulate how many barrier dust you are receiving with your alternative, and potentially use ranged on cult members instead. It is recommended to upgrade the melee armour used, with a preference over upgrading Terran. This is because the extra Damage Reduction is required for the Underwater Ruins. The equipment below will result in roughly 2,400 barrier dust an hour. More or less can be obtained depending on the actual gear and other bonusses used. The amount of barrier dust an hour rises to around 5,200 with Terran fully upgraded to (B). Depending on your choice in the next section, you do not need to fully upgrade Terran.
Equipment
Again, Terran is used in this recommended gear over Ragnar with the assumption that this will be (partially) upgraded into (B). Start by upgrading the Terran Boots, Platelegs and Chestplate.
