Hello All,

As we did a few days ago Lunar Valley, with a unexperianced sqaud with the little info on hand of the internet we came till Valley 5, and now i want to share this info i have with the rest of you. So maybe other people can try it to. or even give more info about lunar valley on this thread.



Sqaud mode Valley 1: wather element.
Sqaud: bm 90, cleric 87, veno 89, cleric90, barb 89, archer 92

We entered the valley and the mobs you get here are not that hard we just pulled them 1 by 1 on a fast ratio.
The mobs give wather debuffs but if tanks keep agro its very simple.
only watch out for the gray mobs they are hiding behind stones and you dont see them that well. So make good use of your radar.

Boss - Buddah's Servant: He haves around 3mill hp and gives every few minutes a group debuff what drops you wather defence allot down. After he haves around 10% HP left he's starting with a Very Strong! Aoe attack. Be sure 1 cleric is purifying the sqaud. if not you all die because of the debuff.
Try all to have all atleast 3 sparks full and try from this point to kill the boss as fast as possible so you dont get 2nd or 3rd Aoe attack. (we failed 1 time then we started purifying whole sqaud not only tank,and no BB and we all lived the 2nd try) Look movie for his Aoe... ----> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hoEd8-4urto got the 1st time our cleric killed.

Now the teleporter apearce on the right path on top and you can go to valley 2. look movie ---->
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5S0-swc2zBs
Sqaud mode Valley 2: Non element.

Now at Start of this valley you get the qeust mobs, this you have to do carfully otherwise your sqaud will be wiped out instanly.

You have a circle of little mobs around 2 big mobs dont worry about the little ones. The big mob on the left "Forckolai" as you see on this movie---->
is the trigger of this whole thing. Pull him first out of the group!
Note* for the veno that if the pet hitted this Forckolai mob call it quick back before the shoveal mob attacks your herc, because he does it with a Instanly Killing AOE.

So pull the Forckolai mob out kill it, Movie ----> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPO4ecjwUUQ is a easy mob. now the trigger is away and the ''Shoveal'' mob dont Aoe's anymore. we found this out after 2nd try. look movie ---->http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5OwCUXWS2M
if your attack the shoveal mob first stun him, then aoe the place so all little mobs are dead.

Then you come on a crossing take right path and then right path again.
be shure you kill the Not Agrassive mob 'Shang' on the way (look movie ----> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yol1UY2tZMs he will trigger the 2nd boss at the end of the valley.

Boss - Wang Tail: He is a big Hp boss (7.25 million) with a Nasty Group Poision.. does me like 1100 damage a time.

so we didnt maked it with barb.. because he was uncharmed so we tryd last option for us because there was not a charmed barb i had to try tank it. So we called in more clerics. we got 2 more and barb got out and archer got out. :( so we got 1 cleric that was purifying everyone the whole time. 1 cleric BB for the tank. and the other 2 spamming the tank in this case because we had no barb.

The boss seems to level around every 30 seconds when he seems to level the whole group getting Full Chi. so i could use that good with the 3rd spark eruption sage' it heals me 20% what is a nice help. and the damage ofcourse.
Look movie ---->http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WX0iabhC5Sk

After you killed it the teleporter apearce again and you can go to the 3rd valley.



Sqaud mode Valley 3: Wood element.


you come in and there are all simple mobs. got little wooden debuffs but there not that hard, and they have no special things to think about like in valley 2. so just pull 1 by 1 and fight your way to the end of this valley and you will see the 3rd boss at the end.

Boss - Mistical Jarax: its giant boss with 5.3mill hp it will debuff only the tanker. and every 5min it seems to stun the whole group for 3 seconds so be wise with your 3rd spark and healing skills tanker. It seems you lose agro sometimes but it isnt he haves automaticly changing agro he beats 1 person now and then... but if your 85+ your survive. we had 1 cleric healing me, other cleric healing me and sometimes purifying me. from there we had took 2 DD's in, a wizzard and veno so it was going Faster. look movie
> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPwC7xtU9A4

then the teleporter apearce again you go to Valley 4


Sqaud mode Valley 4: Earth element

Again just like other mobs pretty easy, this time kill the whole valley and the boss will appear in the middle of the valley. its a nice valley that for sure.. look movie ----> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1c4vBjsORHo

The boss - Here we stranded.... As soon as you attack the boss 3 mobs respawn around him and will walk around him look movie ----> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COackHKnvoc
but the mobs react on you if your to close... and you die... dont try to pull them out because they just respawn back.
so we tryd to from far distance to attack him. the mobs didnt react to that because we out of range. but the boss just kills instanly 1 person each time... Look movie
> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uh8jhGDVHuU and dont mather who is killed.... the boss reagain his hp then instantly to. then we run all out of time and we called it a day.


Well i hope you can use this stuff. and i hope you will get pass this boss where we stranded and so i hope to get awnsers to, or if anyone have qeustions feel free to do, ill try to awnser them.

    how many valley does lunar have and is there no guide?

    There are 8 vallies if I counted correctly and they are:

    Frigoris (water)
    Insularum (Chaos)
    Nubium (Fire)
    Imbrium (Life/Wood)
    Humorum (Earth)
    Smythii (Steel)
    Cognitum
    Crisium

    (last two drop chaos stuffs).

    There's not really a huge guide on it on the forums, but me and my hubby are in the process of writing one =)

    cause a proxy connection for now i cant see the video
    I will help to do some clarity

    Lunar Valley have 8 valleys with different elements.
    1 water,
    2 chaos,
    3 fire,
    4 wood,
    5 earth,
    6 metal,
    7 chaos
    8 all

    each valley have a final boss, u need kill boss for proceding and for drops
    beyond that Lunar Valley is not a linear dungeon in every valley depend which path u take and wich guards u kill(can recognize the guards look like tombs are mostly immune to physical attack)
    : determine your netx valley


    depending on which path you choose.
    you will fight a different boss at the valley 8
    on three bosses available
    (i traduce the name from my en according with pwdatabase)

    Relic of wind
    primal feral
    drake fling

    the path i know are:
    Map 1> Left at Map 2> Left at Map 3> Map 4> Left at Map 5> Map 7> Map 8 : primal feral
    Map 1> Right at Map 2> Map 4> Right at Map 5> Map 7> Map 8 : drake fling
    Map 1> Left at Map 2> Left at Map 3> Map 4> Right at Map 5> Map 8 : drake fling
    Map 1> Left at Map 2> Right at Map 3> Map 5> Map 8 : Relic of wind
    Map 1> Right at Map 2> Map 4> Left at Map 5> Map 6> Map 7> Map 8 : primal feral

    for what concerns my experience I suggest to avoid the map 7
    the enemies have the hp of miniboss and the boss hauntery queen is the worst nightmare ever on PWI

    the boss in map 2 can spaw with 2 different personality wang ehrli and wang tali (depending wath path u choose)
    i never noticed no difference between them just drop different molds.
    When u go in map 3 and map 6 some mobs attack u immediately i suggest to use apo pots for invincibility.
    Boss in map 3 Burning Soul spaw clapping hands once u hit him, on the stone u can avoid death by esplosion.
    Boss in map 5 Genesiac Blink will be tanked with an archer under BB
    if ea die boss regains all the hp.
    boss in map 6 his a timed boss he slowly fall in berserk after 15 minutes
    the boss start deals 50k damange on everyone

    8 all

    Correction: Only the last 3 bosses, in that valley, drop ALL of the fragments, crystals, and essences. Normal mobs only drop chaos items ^^

    Btw, the OP's video with ranged classes attacking Genesiac Blink in the Earth valley, works well =) Not just an archer its also faster. We just tried it and did a wonderful job. Took much less time than an archer soloing. Many thanks for the idea!

    I don't see a guide at all on the forums. If there is one, can anyone link me to them?

    And thank you for writing one. I wonder if any part of it could be solo-ed. Also - how easily do the fragments, crystals and essences drop?

    There really aren't any full guides, mostly just pieces like Whiteshot has posted above. You'd be more likely to find something on the MY version, if you could read it.

    Fragments and Crystals drop quite easily from any mobs, and can be obtained through Single mode and Squad mode. The Essences are much harder since they only drop from bosses and have lower drop percentages.

    Gold mats are, of course, the hardest since they only drop from bosses AND have a lower rate of drop than even the essence. Chromatic Tender is practically the hardest, only dropping from the end bosses (last valley) and special bosses (Herzen Sori Demos, Ancient Tigara). What may be harder though are the special gold 'molds' (not literally a mold) that only drop from the summon bosses at the end of each valley, because those can only be summoned by a person who's completed the quest to kill both Primal Fear and Relic of Wind in the last valley.

    Again just like other mobs pretty easy, this time kill the whole valley and the boss will appear in the middle of the valley. its a nice valley that for sure.. look movie ----> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1c4vBjsORHo

    but the mobs react on you if your to close... and you die... dont try to pull them out because they just respawn back.
    so we tryd to from far distance to attack him. the mobs didnt react to that because we out of range. but the boss just kills instanly 1 person each time... Look movie
    > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uh8jhGDVHuU and dont mather who is killed.... the boss reagain his hp then instantly to. then we run all out of time and we called it a day.

    Hi thanks for your post, very helpful. We did this with a wizzy tanking (earth shield, of course) in BB. 2nd wizzy and 2nd cleric gave us 3 ranged attackers but it still took a while. The barb and BM put their feet up and had a tea party b:chuckle

    We got stuck on the next valley start though, there is a welcoming committee of 3 tough mobs as you go through the portal, so send barb first with IH stacked, get BB up asap then the other squishies go in.

    If you have chosen a path to take, the melee squad members can lure mobs back to the bb for heals while they take them out and start clearing that path. This should help quicken the run and keep everyone busy for a bit of time.

    Hi,
    We did this boss yestoday. It’s not hard at all. I gana tell u wat we did. Barb go first, then Veno with Herc take aggro from barb for the three small mobs, don’t need kill them just keep aggro. Then, all the squad ware killing the boss, in the mean time, Veno also can give amp. to the boss. Pretty easy, no 1 get killed at that time.

    Okay so we killed the boss in Valkley 4 but did anyone else have the issue where the teleporter to the next valley does not work? We tried to get to the next valley after killing Map 4 boss and his adds but the next teleporter would not show up.

    First I need make sure: Is this boss in lunar 1st, 2nd or 3rd boss for this run?Bcause after path, there r totally just 3 bosses for 1 run( single mode also 3 bosses). I mean if this's ur 3rd boss, they r no more boss for u for this run(but should have NPC there). 2ndly, after u killed this boss, u need go faith pass the smal lake U can see NPC to next Valley. 3rd this maybe a bug, like i did run lunar yesterday after 3rd boss there is no NPC to get out.
