Veil of Alaris Information & Guides: An Overview | Group Progression & Task List | Raid Progression | Visible Armor



This is a group monster mission that begins with the Sentry Stone of Illdaera in Sepulcher West (located at about 895, 1085, 8 -- in one of the large rooms in the north-central part of the zone).

Pre-requisites for requesting the task:
- Completed "The Fracturing of Order"
- Completed "Crafting the Triumvirate's Downfall"
- Completed "Resurrecting the Gods"
- 88 Skill Level in Alaran

You say, 'Hail, Sentry Stone of Illdaera'

We hear you speaking. You have cooperated with the [blind dreamers] and the [burial sites], so we will tell you something of ourselves. We are servants, mere vessels, for our masters. But time in contact with the masters has given us a sense of ourselves as separate from them, and real beings. Our masters of Battle, Fertility and Beasts have decided to help you defeat the Order. Now that you have lowered the barrier, our Illdaera wishes you to meet with your gods and guide them into the Sepulcher. Our masters hope that they are strong enough to overcome the powers there and [breach the temple].

You say, 'Let's breach the temple!'

Sentry Stone of Illdaera says 'We note your decision. We shall not forget. We can provide teleportation to the place where you must [begin].'

You have been assigned the task 'Breaching the Barrier'.

Corrupted ereths have erected a barrier over the doorways to the central chambers of the Sepulcher of Order. Clearly they are trying to protect something important within. Clear the barriers to gain entry to the central chamber by eliminating the ereths defending the temple entrances.

You say, 'Let's begin!'

Sentry Stone of Illdaera says 'We understand your request.'

LOADING, PLEASE WAIT...
You have entered Sepulcher of Order.

The Eight Temples

You'll need to clear just about the entire zone's worth of trash, killing eight named mobs (one at each temple) in the process.

The monster templates have a lot of hitpoints and the trash mobs here hit quite hard (~25,000). If you have a full group, it's a simple clear and you'll be able to handle numerous adds at once; however, it's recommended that you fight the corrupted ereths single.

NOTE: You may want to clear the inner part of the zone prior to killing the last corrupted ereth.

Arafel, Thelara Ereth & Completion

Once the last of the eight corrupted ereths is killed, the task locks and you'll see this emote:

The chamber quakes as the massive doors securing the inner chamber swing open.

Note: Arafel is much harder than the previous mini-named. It hits for a max ~56,000; single-target rampages; AE rampages; flurries; has a lot of hitpoints; charms (random, about every minute); summons adds; and casts a knockback. It is NOT leashed anywhere (can be pulled as far away as you want it, even to the zone-in).

The Harvest: PB AE 150', Unresistable (-900)
1: Decrease Hitpoints by 1325000

Touch of the Guardian: Single Target, Disease (-900)
1: Charm up to level 100

Add spawns are signified by this emote (every 30 seconds):

Bolts of energy fly from Alseth's hands, energizing the pools of Alra Rel.

This signals the spawn of an add in each of the three pools:

They are a mix of "a pool of alsa thel" and "a flow of alsa thel". These mobs will sometimes explode, casting "Burning Thel" in the process:

Burning Thel: PB AE 200', Unresistable (0)
1: Decrease HP when cast by 795000 to 1215000 (random)
2: Decrease Movement by 35%

Every 60 seconds, Arafel spawns a non-aggro add called "a thelasa ereth servant":

Arafel, Thelara Ereth shouts, 'I am weakened. Servants of the Triumvirate, I command you to aid me!'

"a thelasa ereth servant" wanders up the ramps from the bottom and attempts to heal Arafel. These mobs can be ignored if you have a full group focused on DPS.

NOTE: At 75%, Arafel drops all aggro and warps back to its spawn point. It must be re-aggro'd within a short time, or the event will reset.

This emote is believed to be a reset emote (if you wipe out or leave the mob idle for too long a time after engaging):

Arafel, Thelara Ereth shouts, 'The powers of order are divine and without error. You have been judged and found unworthy.'



Completion

Upon Arafel's death, you see the emote:

As Arafel falls, the magic barrier around the Sepulcher of Order dissipates.

A chest called "Hoard of the Guardian" spawns at Arafel's spawn point. Note that the ooze adds continue spawning and attacking.

I had a lot of fun on this mission, good to be able to go punish everything in the zone. You know they deserve it! I did however get tired of all the adds on the first part of the engagement of Arafel, Thelara Ereth so i just pulled it to the tides area and beat it down there. After that was cake, just ignored the walkers and concentrated dps on Arafel.

After cleansing the entrances you must:
"Destroy Arafel, thealara ereth within the central chamber"
He is a LOT harder than the previous mini-named. Charms, summons adds, knockback.
