Overview

This raid is straight forward. You just clear trash and kill 5 named around the zone (who hit hard). The last named in particular hits just as hard, if not harder, than Rallos Zek in Plane of Time. Geared tanks are highly recommended.

 Step 1

At Circle 1 you’ll find Leklos the Bonekeeper. Kill it.

– Melees for 2600+
– PBAE Stun (6 seconds)
– PBAE Attack debuff
– Single Target Spell Haste + Attack Speed -15% debuff. Curse Counter

Step 2

At Circle 2 you’ll find The Cavern Creeper. Kill it

– Melees for 2600+
– Estimated 530K HP
– AE rampages
– Casts Fist of Innoruuk, Single target FD + Stun (12 second), also does 5000 DD. Casts it on the tank. -500 Magic Based.
– PBAE 500 AE DoT, this also makes the raid drunk if alcohol tolerance is below 50. Poison Counter.
– Small crawler adds spawn upon death. Trivial.

Step 3

At Circle 3 you’ll find The Cursed Spore. Kill it.

– Melees for 2600+
– 700K HP
– Casts Cursed Keeper’s Siphon (PBAE -500 HP/ -300 Mana drain. 45 Disease Counter, -275 Diseased Based)

– Slowable

Step 5

At Circle 5 you’ll find The Cursed Keeper. This is a bad bad boi. He hits hard and puts out a lot of AE damage.  Have healers stand behind the wall at the entrance to his room to avoid the AE spells. It’s likely that your melee will die. Try to stay max melee. Kill it.

– Melees for 3600+
– 800K HP
– AE rampages hard
– Charms Main Tank (level 65 cap). This spell also lowers attack speed by 25% and gives a damage shield to the player.
– PBAE -200 Resist debuff
– PBAE Knockback
– PBAE -750 HP / -600 Mana Drain DoT

Once dead you’ll get four chests. Three look like chests, one looks like a bone pile. All 4 chests spawn in The Cursed Keeper’s room.
