    Well done, but you're going to be less pleased when you meet the insularum shoveals in the second cave.

    Yeah....those....

    I still remember my first encounter with them. Everyone in the squad had never done Lunar before, so none of us had any idea at all what we would encounter. We got through the first valley to the boss, and beat him. We were feeling good, thinking we could go finish the next area to get our quests. That's when we met....IT!b:cry

    It looked harmless enough. We started to take it on just like you would anything. The barb tanked it, the clerics healed him and everyone else did damage. A few seconds later *BAM* the party was wiped in 1 shot with the exception of the barb and blademaster, who fell soon after. Checking my damage log, I saw the numbers from that aoe. Over 13k damage with just 1 hit....

    I never did get that quest done.b:surrender

    This is how we eventually ended up doing our "Along in the valley" quest.
    It was very time consuming and expensive though, as we were dying on average a little over once per shoveal killed.

    I suspect a better way would be to use heavy armor venos with hercs, as im pretty sure a heavy armor veno in foxform with blue bubble (cleric has to be at max range out of the aoe) would regularly survive the aoe, and the herc can take it.

    I was almost able to survive the aoe in foxform and Im in arcane armor (with a lot of pdef stuff) with almost 6k pdef. It was doing about 1k more damage than my health.

    Bottom line is its not worth it. You can get gear that is as good out of tt, with much less pain. We havn't been back since. It wouldnt surprise me if it gets a revamp sometime as they are doing with frost grounds.

    We've done all up to Relic of Wind today and that's where we failed, because he aggro'd some person and our tank got out of bb range. Was around 1/3 hp, but we decided to stop since it took us a while with the party wipes in 2nd valley until we figured out how to do it. After we did, we got killed only 2-3 times.
