Improved Guild Bosses

Introduction

Guild bosses have received changes to make them more valueable for players to defeat!

• Previously Guild Bosses have given underwhelming rewards for the amount of effort 
• Now the bosses have been given better drop tables to inspire guilds to defeat them 
• Bosses have also received some changes like different attack patterns to be more fun
• Some Best in Slot PvE Magic Crystals are some of the drops that have been added to the bosses 

 

Some of the Magic Crystals were previously only obtainable through story questlines. 

Magic Crystals

The biggest incentive for the new bosses is definitely the additional crystals that have been added to their drop tables. 

 

Rebellious Spirit Crystal, Black Spirit Crystal, Awakened Spirit's Crystal, Valtarra Spirit's Crystal have been added as drops that players can now grab from guild bosses. 

 

The reason this is so good is because of the Rebellious Spirit Crystal. Generally these can be considered a best in slot PVE crystal, that are usually pretty hard, or expensive, to get a hold of. 

 

 

With a decent price tag on a pretty limited item, this helps to make the guild bosses a little more attractive to run and the other crystals are used in a recipe to create Rebellious Spirit Crystal.

 

Previously, these crystals were only available through completing main storyline quests, like the Black Spirit Crystal from the Mediah questline. 

 

 

While a little more available, it still makes for a decent reward from a guild boss and be saved to craft more Rebellious Spirit Crystal if you need them or want to sell them. 

 

 

The Awakened crystals come from the Valencia questline and are surprisingly more available, but more expensive. 

 

 

Valtarra Spirit's Crystal come from the Kamasylvia questline, not as available with the highest price tag.

 

These crystals are decent alternatives to Rebellious Spirit Crystal if you're on a budget and spend a lot of time in Kamasylvia for grinding. 

 

You can hover over any of the item tooltips to check their current marketplace price. 

The tooltips will also show their marketplace stock, so you can decide if you think the guild bosses are worth running for the chance of extra rewards. 

 

Accessing Guild Bosses 

To access Guild bosses, you first must complete guild missions to obtain summon scroll pieces and they can only be summoned once per week. 

 

By pressing G you can go to the guild mission tab and and lookf or the combat missions that provide boss summon scroll pieces like below: 

 

 

Once you have enough summon scroll pieces you'll also be able to use the find location button to help navigate to the boss location. 

 

 

Boss Reward Changes

Along with the Magic Crystals being added to the loot tables the bosses also received other changes to make them more rewarding to defeat.

From now on Giant Mudster will always provide a Gold Bar 1,000G for being defeated, giving the boss at least a 100 mil reward without any of the other rewards being included. 

 

Some of the other drops were increased as well, making it a decent boss when considering the chance to get crystal drops as well.

Some of the attack patterns

Puturum has some other note worthy drops, being able to grab some Advice of Valks and more importantly Belongings of an Ancient Guardian.

 

As you can see from the change notes above, the Belongings of an Ancient Guardian were also buffed to provide better accessories when they're opened. 

 

Some of the more disliked mechanics have been adjusted to make defeating the boss smoother and in general the drops have been changed to be more rewarding.
