New Mini Dungeon!

That's right, a new mini has been added! This should help with the monotony of farming for essences. It isn't an "easymode" zone, more of a farming alternative. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY advise you find friends as this zone is big, loaded, and scales to the highest level.

First, find the Miner in Nexus or Stone Hive. Follow his prompts to start a new expedition.


Once inside, move towards the first big tile to initiate the essence selector menu. It will let you farm up to your highest level.



Please report problems/suggestions for this zone IN THIS THREAD, not in tells. Additionally, the newest spellfile is needed to adventure here!

New spell file (3-29-16) is now available!

Coth is disabled, is that intentional?

Ninja is also disabled, not sure why.

Cleared about 2/3rds so far, zero loot. Mobs are T9 but using T10 mechanics.

Projection of tactics dropped nothing.

Got a GLS from trash and some SLS/GLS and plat bags from a boss.

Next boss had SLS/GLS and plat.

Projection of power dropped a plat bag.

109 mobs left and we found our first essence.

Projection of Realms dropped 2 plat bags.

Flin is alone with the grimoire. I stab it, no wait I backstab it! You can't backstab it, you can't sneak attack an inanimate object. Why not it's prone? It doesn't have a discernible anatomy. It's got a spine doesn't it? *Rolls a 1 and stabs himself.

Blitz through, Ninja, CoH. Murder, loot. Blitz through more, Nina, CoH. Murder, Loot. Rinse & repeat until completion.

Projections have highest essence chance (can be MUCH higher). Minibosses are the loot mongers, if it rolls favorably.

The two testers saw some. One had 4, other had 2 (I think).

I would be fine with ninja being disabled but coth is killing me. Can we enable coth but remove its ability to memblur here? To many tight turns with lots of things to catch on, and with leashed bosses I have to move my group to the far corners of the map.

Finished the zone and the only loot I got at all was from the final boss, zero off any of the minis or projections.  Final boss dropped 5 GLS, 1 essence and a bunch of gems.  It was a lot of rezzing alts, but was a fun run through with level appropriate challenge and the last boss had a few surprises that I won't spoil.  All that said, unless there's a substantial bump in loot chances I'm not sure how this does anything to offer an alternate avenue for viably farming essences. It's a good start though for sure.

Finished up as well and as Dim noted, its a challenge but not really worth the time for the reward. We got 2 essences a handful of plat bags and about 5 SLS. I also had an issue with the members of my group who died in the final fight not getting credit for the final boss, so they didn't get a reward.

I made sure I did /say #e tasksync before final hail to avoid that problem, not sure if there's a good list of #e commands in game or not but I remember someone telling me about the tasksync one.

That's bad. It was working gloriously during testing. I'll manually run it a few times tomorrow to see if i can pinpoint the issue on why sometimes it is and sometimes it isn't giving loot.

I lost 3 from my first group at the start of the fight, and they ended up as the 3 without credit. Alesana was there with me in the second group and died at the end of the fight but got credit. Not sure if that helps but that was the only differences I saw, hope it helps.

Final boss or a Projection?

Aye, when he spawned his buddies I guess I took more of them at first from my AE procced before leis's i guess, then eventually died - I got credit for him on Alesana while she was still in stone hive...but oddly enough Leis didn't get the credit when he finished the final boss off.


Would love to see coth enabled with how big that zone is. It's terrible to navigate your other 5 characters through those corners (it's a huge headache as it is and with it dropping so little loot/essences or whatever it makes it that much much worse of a grind imo)...I'd also comment and would encourage to keep all the bosses Tethered, keep ninja disabled, and disable the memblur from cothing in the zone like leis said.

CoH should be enabled in new instances.
