The Ghimlyt Dark - Dungeon Guide

During the parley with the enemy, you learned the unpleasant truth about their motivations, and must now go to war.

How to Unlock

The Ghimlyt Dark, a 4-player dungeon, is unlocked by the level 70 Main Scenario Quest The Face of War.

Mark III-B Magitek Colossus

Jarring Blow is a high-damage attack on the player highest in the enmity list.

Wildfire Beam marks all players with circle attack markers that follow them. Players should spread away from each other to avoid overlapping the other players with their circle markers.

When the boss casts Magitek Slash, there will be a rotation indicator around the boss, as well as a cone attack marker. The boss will begin the attack by hitting where the cone marker was, then it will rotate in the direction that was indicated by the rotation indicator, hitting with the cone attack in the new direction that it is facing. It will repeat this several times, leaving wedge-shaped fire puddles where it hit. Wait for each puddle to disappear, and move into the area where it was so that you can avoid the rotating attack until it stops.

Exhaust targets a random player with a line attack marker. All players should move away from the line attack marker to avoid the attack.

Ceruleum Vent damages all players.

Magitek Ray targets a random player with a stack marker. Players should stack together with the marked player to reduce the damage of the attack.

Prometheus

Ranged players may want to stay near this boss to avoid its large arc attack, Oil Shower (see below). In addition, the tank should make sure to move the boss to the center of the area to ensure that there is always a safe location when the boss uses Oil Shower.

Nitrospin damages all players and places a ring of fire around the area. Make sure not to step in the fire or you will take damage.

Oil Shower is a large arc attack that leaves a safe cone-shaped area in front of the boss. Get in front of the boss to avoid the attack.

Needle Gun is a cone attack in front of the boss.

When the boss casts Burrow, it will burrow into the ground, then a fireball will appear over the flames around the area. Quickly look around to locate the fireball, and move to the side so that you are not in front of it. The fireball will create a line attack across the area in the direction that it was facing, and players standing in this line will be damaged continuously by Heat until the player moves off of the fiery line.

Unbreakable Cermet Drill is a high-damage attack on the player highest on the enmity list.

Freezing Missiles places four proximity attack markers at the edge of the area. Move to the center of the area to minimize the damage that you take from this attack, but quickly locate the fireball that has appeared at the edge of the area and move out of its way as soon as you have taken damage from the Freezing Missiles proximity attack.

Schola Colossi

As you proceed toward the final boss, you will encounter several Schola Colossi. One of them will place circle attack markers on players that you need to avoid overlapping with other players and allied characters.

When battling another Colossus, Kan-E-Senna will create a shield that all players should stand under to avoid high damage.

Julia and Annia quo Soranus

During this battle, each sister will take turns battling you by herself. The attacks will depend on which sister is active.

Annia

Heirsbane marks players with target markers. The marked players will take more damage from this attack than unmarked players.

Delta Trance is a high-damage attack on the player highest in the enmity list.

Order to Bombard places large circle attack markers on the area. At the same time, players will each be targeted with Crossbone, a line attack that follows them. Crossbones will knock players back, so players should move to a safe area away from the large circle markers while also being careful not to stand in a position where they will be knocked into an attack marker and will not be overlapping other players with their line attack.

Angry Salamander is a line attack in the direction of a random player. Unlike Crossbones, this line attack does not follow the player and can be avoided by moving out of the line attack marker.

Artificial Plasma damages all players.

The Order will cause the glowing Xs to do line attacks in the direction that they are facing. Step away from the line attack markers to avoid this attack.

When Annia uses Stunning Sweep, she will jump to a random player and create a large circle attack marker centered on herself. Players should move out of the way of this circle marker to avoid the attack.

Julia

Innocence is a high-damage attack on the player highest on the enmity list.

Ceruleum Tanks will fall onto the area. Julia will hit one of the tanks, causing it to have a large circle attack marker around it. This will start a chain reaction where any tanks in the first circle attack marker will soon explode, and tanks hit by that explosion will soon explode, and so on. Position yourself to run to where the first ceruleum tank was as soon as it is safe to do so.

Air Strike will cause circle attack markers to appear beneath each player, and Julia will have four glowing Xs around her. Get out of the way of the circle attack markers while also avoiding being in front of any of the glowing Xs, which will place line attack markers on the floor to indicate their path.

Tag Team Transition

Tag Team Transition will cause both sisters to become untargetable, and Annia will move outside of the edge of the area, while Julia will create a glowing X. There will be thin line markers that appear across the area, showing where numerous line attacks will go. Quickly identify a place that is not marked with any of these thin lines and stand there to avoid being hit by the glowing X that bounces along the path of where the thin lines were. Later in the battle, players will also be marked with large circle attack markers that follow them, so you will have to spread apart to avoid hitting each other with these attacks.

Artificial Boost and Imperial Authority

When their health reaches a certain point, they will use Artificial Boost, which restores some of their health. They will then begin to cast Imperial Authority. If you do not defeat them before they finish casting this spell, you will be defeated and will have to start the battle again from the beginning. Focus on one sister at a time. One of the DPS players can use Limit Break on both sisters when both Limit Break gauges are full.

Completing the Quest

Defeating the boss will complete one of the quest objectives for the Main Scenario Quest The Face of War. There will be a cutscene. This one is important, so it is recommended to watch it either now or via the Unending Journey in an inn room.
