To access the Pyramid of Home, first enter Home temple by the big steps on Home main plazza. (This is the door by which you normally exit after Beast raids. It now works both ways, in and out.)
Then, within the Temple of Home enter the large door behind Number Nine and the portal from Pandemonium.
To enter the Temple of Home, you will have to meet any of the following requirements:raid team, and be level 201 or above to participate. [/list]
Haste posted this before I open this thread, so I'll quote him here:
Then, within the Temple of Home enter the large door behind Number Nine and the portal from Pandemonium.
To enter the Temple of Home, you will have to meet any of the following requirements:
- - Wear a Profession Nanodeck (Base/Awakened/Stellar)
- Have completed the 'Guarding the Source' questline
- Have completed the Legacy of the Xan questline

Haste wrote:If people can update their findings on the new instance here it'd be a big help. We tried going in two times today but could not get through the second boss. Here's what we found out:
- at entrance there's two lower portal mobs which must be killed at roughly the same time to spawn the main portal mob (it has a little delay). Once you kill this one, the portal to the first floor spawns. The portals stay up for a long time, requiring no further spawning - this stands true for further floors too.
- first floor has got some trash mobs (beware the sneaked cultist near the breiflabb) that you have to kill to proceed, and has two lesser portal mobs (in different places this time) which must be killed in coordination to spawn the main portal mob. Also of note is that on these non boss floors the mobs respawn, which makes it quite tough to come back alone if you wipe, in case sufficient time has passed. The mobs themselves hit quite hard, while some people may be able to solo it's usually easier to just have someone leave team and rejoin to escort back.
- second floor is the first boss of this instance (a big heck); this boss knocks back, stuns, can cast an AOE nsd if you're too close, and at certain % in HP spawns moving flames. You must avoid these flames at all costs, even if some don't kill you instantly they take loads of your hp (like 50% at least). The amount of flames increases according to waves, starting from one to 4 or 5 in the last wave (at 10% or so). The boss also gains a reflect shield once the flames start popping. The loot: can drop one of the new HUD3 items (check DB), and drops a bunch of corrupted Xan weapons (4 iirc). These corrupted weapons can take a weapon upgrade from the Xan instances to turn them into a normal Xan weapon. It also drops a sigil, and three or four Laughing Spirit Capsules. We couldn't find out what these are for yet.
- third floor is like first floor, the only difference is there's three lesser portal mobs now to coordinate (if you kill by mistake they respawn fast).
- fourth floor, there's a boss (lotv mesh) and two altars on each side. The altars each flash green or red four times before switching color. We couldn't find out for sure how to use the altars yet. The boss sometimes flashes some lights ala DB2 and casts a trader drain on you. I assume you're supposed to go to an altar of the flashing color to clear the debuff, but we wiped so fast we didn't try that. It also spawns two mini-dragon adds, and polymorphs people. The tank can get possessed and start attacking other people (like on Xan). We couldn't get it low enough in HP so might have some other hidden tricks. Hits quite hard and likes to switch agg a lot.
Any corrections or other tips would be appreciated, we're all learning by trying atm.

AOItems was recently updated for 18.8.6 and I did a little diving.
- The Spirit Capsules are combined together at least from this little clue:
This may be used to either activate the sigils or maybe just straight upgrade the beast items. There is no confirmation just yet.
- There are two different 5k Token boards. (Combat and Defense) This is not surprising. This may be related to the sigils though as there are two different types of sigils.
EDIT: Added links and for clarity.
- The Spirit Capsules are combined together at least from this little clue:
When fully combined they make Primed Spirit CapsuleRaging Spirit Capsule
A combination of Spirt Capsules. The energies occasionally seem to cooperate, but mostly seem to oppose each other. The volatile energy causes the container to produce a contant, irritating noise. This container can accept only 1 more collection of energy.
This may be used to either activate the sigils or maybe just straight upgrade the beast items. There is no confirmation just yet.

Someone in team chat just told us there's three different spirit capsules dropping from each boss, and they must be combined to make in a token board. Likely (my guess) each of the sigils is used for defining if it's combat or defense, and the token board gets combined with the respective paragon to make the awakened final version. Will update when I know more.Caedence wrote:AOItems was recently updated for 18.8.6 and I did a little diving.

edit: Green altar removes the polymorphs. Red altar.. was told by one person that clears other debuffs, but other person said it instakills you.
edit2: OK, apparently the sigils are charged with a Portable Notum Infusion Device, which drops on last floor.

For 2nd boss.
Team: enfo, doc, crat, sol,...
Doc and other support needs to be near one beam, DD should be on the opposite beam and enfo should be on same side as DDs but a more to the middle so he can mongo adds.
Adds always spawns at the center of room.
Enfo should be always on boss, its very hard to keep/get aggro from mobs with mongo.
Kill adds in order as described before, Sorrowful, Furious, Feared and Pained.
Kill adds FAST! Sorrowfull is a pain for enfo, doc,...
Boss will cast in you 2 things, chimera morph or hits on mobs will heal them (30k). You can check ncus for these debuffs or see the effect when he casts, a green circle on floor around you.
After you get debuffed just run to beam near you when its GREEN, if its red just wait for green.
Sometimes boss will charm tank, and turns aggro for best DD or even doc.
Theres a 'safe' point if doc dies at altar. Theres a hole in there where boss cant hit you. Altar is the place in front when you get inside, not beams.
3rd boss today if i can get time and team.

This was recently dropped in org chat today. It may seem that one sigil is for armor and the other for the board.[Athen Paladins] Coolerd: Inert Sigil of Machiavelli + Portable Notum Infusion Device + beast armor for upgrade
[Athen Paladins] Bellatrix: so you need 1 piece per beast armour you want to upgrade?
[Athen Paladins] Coolerd: yes
Edit:
Fountain of Life is the perk action from having a full set of the Awakened Beast armor.[Athen Paladins] Coolerd: !items Fountain of Life
[Athen Paladins] Bobsan02: Nano Crystal (Fountain of Life) (QL390)
[Athen Paladins] Bobsan: Your query returned 0 results
[Athen Paladins] Moonmarin: tbh full set perk might not be worth
[Athen Paladins] Coolerd: Fountain of Life Nano Cost: 1380 (2000)NCU cost: 1 School: Medical Stacking Order: 0 Duration: 00:00:10 Range: 15m Speed: Attack 7.00s Recharge 9.00s Modifier: On Target: Healing 1000000(1060000)
[Athen Paladins] Bellatrix: hehe
[Athen Paladins] Coolerd: complet heal

I'll just add another HUD3 that was missing from guide: https://aoitems.com/item/302923/ancient ... ive-drone/
Also, and this is the major cause of dead doctors on second boss: it wipes agg list each time adds pop. We also had him bug out several times on the walls near altars yesterday, so it probably is best to stick to middle, at least until it gets fixed.
On the unknown items: I think I read on org chat that of the sigils is used to upgrade beast armor, and it is charged with the infuser. The other one.. maybe for the Sigil?
Great work everyone![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

I also need to see if in all the posts above, something can be used in the guide. Probably.
Regarding your forums account settings and name we'll see that online. Better have it under the name Meepingora.
