Acrylia Caverns

The exp here is simply PHENOMENAL. I came here last night just to get the aug, and ended up staying and grinding out about 15 AAs. I was in the inner cavern killing mobs around the Spiritist and Warlord spawns, and getting between 9% and 14% AA per kill. This zone is not currently a hotzone, I imagine if it was I'd be getting an AA every 5 or 6 kills! Fairly easy mobs as a solo 60 shadowknight. Highly recommend this zone!

Dropped an aug for me yesterday...

a sacrificial cauldron - red to lvl 70

I had the lucid shard drop off of a jail cell guard in Inner last night. was a grp of 4 and went exploring. the lone guard outside of cells had it. was great fun for the grp <warrior, shaman, druidess and ranger> no big heals needed and all was grp buffed only....will be bringing guild back to try the ward quest...will post results :)

Generally speaking this is a tough zone if you solo and are below 60. The mobs in the rooms around the zone line are 44 - 47ish plus the odd named being a bit higher ( primalist, ritualist, bloodmage, bloodpriest ) .
At level 65 you can single pull any grimling or shiknar from pulks, at lower levels I suggest using lull type spells and being careful.

Nearby standing mobs will NOT cast healing on their friends in range - at least not when fighting my 65 Paladin. That includes fighting several mobs. They wont heal each other even if several are engaged.

Ore can drop off any grimling in outer and off the skeleton minions.

Soulsoothers are full type clerics, they cheal if at 50% most of the time( and not only once if you let them ). Else they use healing spells and cleric nuke spells.

Deathspeakers use poison spells and will try to slow you with Torgor's . Unless you have high poison and magic resists these will be a tough fight. At 210 magic resist and 201 poison the only spell that lands on me from time to time is boil blood.

Bloodguards are my favorites - they don't fuss around. They arent warriors though or not pure warriors. They will dispel your buffs quite frequently and try some other stuff, if you let them.
At 65 self-buffed with Guidance I lost numerous peridots due to BGs dispelling it.

Skeleton minions cast alot of asystole and other SK/NEC spells - so be warned. Else they dont hit hard and are no opponent for a paladin with anti-undead weapon and/or Slay Undead AA . Only two (or just one if you are high enough ) of them will aggro at any time when pulling them, as they are placed strategically around the stairs.

I cannot advise to hunt shik'nar - they dont drop anything special ( NO ore anyway, at least not the odd 20 I killed before giving up on them ), hit fast and have alot of HP. As only one or two of them stand in places where they could agro passersby hutning them makes little to no sense.

Unless you pass the bloodpriest and go into Inner acrylia cavern those mobs are pretty much the only thing you will see.

For the lucid shard I can say that it drops pretty regularly in Inner and so far didnt drop for me once in the outer areas ( around zone in, bloodpriest room, main hall or anything ). That doesnt mean it wont - just that I didnt see one drop in hundreds of kills and weeks of camping ore and/or XPing.

Hello )
Just wanted to know if someone knows how to do the quest for entering the temple inside Acrylia?
I have heard it is broken...

Thanks in advance )

a grimling bloodpriest also spawns here. drops the blackened acrylia blade, the blackened acrylia greatsword, and legend of lies. I don't know as of this post as to how to make him spawn, but we camped him one day for about 8 hours, and he spawned after the first 3 hours, then 30 minutes later, and didn't spawn again. Any help as to whether he is on a timer or if he has a ph would be helpful.
