Walkthrough
Defeat all the Qiqirn. Protect the female apkallu.
- This was like a mini-besieged with the additional NPC helpers.
- You start in a giant room with a lot of Apkallu. The bigger ones are the males and are going to help in the fight. The smaller Apkallu are the females you're there to protect.
- All of the Apkallu are buffable and curable.
- The mission fails if all females are killed and you get points based on the number of females that are left at the end of the mission.
- The Qiqirn Egglers wield daggers. They attack quickly with high accuracy.
- They use Kibosh which induces Amnesia and Faze, an effect that freezes you for several seconds.
- Qiqirn start coming in from one of the sides of the room in teams of 1-2.
- Once they're in range, the males will engage as well.
- After a little bit, another team of Qiqirn will join the attack from one of the remaining sides.
- Once all Qiqirn are defeated there will be a short period to rest up, then another wave of Qiqirn comes. This continues for a few waves.
- The Qiqirn come at a decent speed, so make sure you bring enough DDs to get through each wave pretty quickly. All DD should be /nin to minimise the ammount of healing they need, as any healing or enhancing magic (even Regen or Stoneskin) pulls enormous ammounts of hate and mages will struggle to stay alive if they have to heal too much.
- You can sleep the Qiqirn before the Apkallu attack them, however, they are highly resistant to sleep.
- Another method is to have one or more people kite Qiqirn around the room, either to gather up males to attack them, or to get them away from the group, while other members of your party kill one or two Qiqirn.
- The male Apkallu will "faint" if they get below about 50% health. They cannot be healed or revived.
- After a few waves of Qiqirn are defeated the Mission will be successful and the Rune of Release will spawn in the area you are in with the Apkallu.
- Qiqirn can aggro pets (avatars, wyverns, puppets, etc).
- SMN or BST can be a great help in this mission, since Qiqrins aggro pets, you can invisible yourself and let a Qiqrin aggro the pet, and kite it for a while until the rest of the pt killed the Qiqrins attacking the apkallus.
- Splitting your party can be a horrible decision, due to the fast attack of the Qiqirn, and the enmity a Cure can pull.
- You can cure all Apkallu's without getting hate. It's easier to let NPC Apkallu tank and bring seveal healers to keep the Apkallu healthy.
- The Apkallu are considered a single party and can be cured as a group using Accession.
