I know that~! :P
However, they also speak of a master. And since they've been to the Underworld... yeah:P
No, I don't hope it's Shiro. lol. I rather someone like the Lich, but bigger and badder.

Back at the Monastery.
It seems to be an easier mission, but enemies spawn through the rifts.
Anyone know the reward?

It's now harder than before... Keeping the gate shutdown is very hard...
WE've tried to kill fast, didnt work. We tried to leave someone behind to keep the gate capped, didnt work...

Hi
monastery mission is the hardest yet, simple on the surface, but its next to impossible to keep the rifts shut, and each time they open, very quickly 3 enemies will spawn to defend it.
the only way i can currently think is to have 4 peopel who can actually solo it, or maybe 2 teams of 2 who can cope with it, but either of these will be very hard.
not to mention, theres only an hours time window to enter, well be back to tsumei at 9

Very frustrating indeed. Last group I was in could close them pretty safely, but it always seemed like the first would open when working on the third. Only managed to keep three closed for a few seconds when sticking togeather as a group.
Guildmaster Cain
Now you can add (Confirmed) to your post.
Vahn Roi
Has anyone considered that 'the Fury' may have something to do with any of this? One thing I found odd about him is that he has an aura in town, I don't know why I found it odd, but I did....

Anyone get the reward for the last three of the seven quests yet?

Underworld is a big place with many nasty things locked up. It could also be the Darkness again, which were the first ambassadors of this Choas Army.

Scythes of Chaos are also there. Don't remember the grasps, but then again i haven't been to UW in ages.

There's your evidence.

I thought one point of the Tombs change was so that players could have a chance to look at the (Heroes Ascent) PvP maps
. But its really part of a large storyline??

Lord Victo was the champion of Orr when the Lich destroyed it, and now some the Darknesses have their hands on his stuff...
Yeah, something's up. |
EDIT:
But it does take some time to plan,develop and test these things, so maybe not :P

I seriously believe that the grasps etc. will be part of a chapter spanning fight for dear life, Good Vs. Evil, and they called it the underworld because they have little understanding of this new area of evil that has opened up a rift into our world, I also think that this may be the BASIS of the story many chapters ahead, into another dimension= a WHOLE new world, Alternate Tyria anyone?

In the year 851 AE, Lord Odran discovered how to open portals into the Mists, and subsequently, to the Rift. He hid the portals in the most treacherous of places, including:
- The Tomb of the Primeval Kings, deep inside the inhabitable Crystal Desert. This portal has been infested by the army of The Darknesses.
- Heroes' Ascent, in a region later became known as The Battle Isles, where the Zaishen Order train themselves for battle. This is the only portal accessable to players to reach the Hall of Heroes.
The army of The Darknessess (which employ Grasps of Insanity, Terrorweb Dryders, Banished Dreamrider, etc) corrupted the original portal in the Tomb and turned it into a Choas Rift. Now this portal between the Rift ( the first 2 levels of Tombs) and the human world works both ways. Hall of Heroes is only a part of the Rift and it is the last 2 levels of Tombs Mission. In the Hall of Heroes, heroes of old (including Lord Victo) fight eachother, gladiatorstyle. But when the army of the Darknessess invaded the Hall of Heroes (your mission was to stop them invading it), they presumably stole these weapons from either the ghosts or the tombs of the heroes.
Conclusion: the Choas Rifts are bothway portals to and from the Rift. But it is still uncertain if the Darknessess originate from the Rift, from our world or somewhere else. Why would they create a Choas Rift in Tombs through which their enemies (us) can enter? Maybe they were evil spirits trapped in our realm and wanted to take revenge on the gods by capturing the Hall of Heroes.
But to get back to the dragon festival: Tombs Choas Rift was a corruption of a original portal to the Hall of Heroes, does that mean that all the Choas Rifts were originally portals to the realm of the gods (Mists).
Anyway, the Mists are large, they contain the Rifts, which in their turn contain the Hall of Heroes and the Great Forge for instance. The army of the Darknessess could have come from anywhere of the Mists, even outside the Rift area. So no point in grabbing extra parallel dimensions in the equation (yet), which is the least plausible.
Edit: I guess someone is gonna delete this ranting, because it is getting more and more offtopic... :P

You forgot the entrance taken over by the Charr that is located somewhere in Ascalon.
Guildmaster Cain
That is the Tomb of Drascir, but it is still uncertain wether it is the same as Tomb of Primeval Kings, since they are both mixed up on various occasions.

True, they are far to the north of the Great Wall, but somehow lore mixed this up with Tombs of Kings. Although I dont agree with it as well, nobody has found any proof about it.
Anyway, if they are the same or not, Tomb of Drascir has a portal to the Rift too.

Can you still get the quests from Rujiyo? He doesn't have an exclamation mark over his head anymore, and if you talk to him he says something about how we've held the monsters off but we're still in trouble or something...but no quest
