Warsong City

Warsong City is a dungeon available for players that are level 80 or above. It is used to farm Basic Badges and molds to upgrade Nirvana or Rank 9 gear. Bosses also drop useful items for Genies and last boss drops materials for Warsong Belts.

Story
The evil Incarcerate, a great and terrible Wraithlord, was sealed in Warsong City years ago. Now his servants are attempting to free him, which would spell the doom of Perfect World. The only chance is to venture into Warsong City and destroy him before he can escape and gain his full power.

Squad Composition
The squad's composition should have a tank, a healer, a debuffer and damager dealers. Make sure you have at least five players that can defend one pavilion.


 * A healer - Preferably a Cleric, but a Mystic can work too. They can be assigned to Metal, Fire or assist other players.
 * A Venomancer - For debuffs. They can be assigned to Metal or Fire.
 * A Blademaster - For debuffs and back-up tanking. They can be assigned to Water, Wood or Earth.
 * A Barbarian - For tanking. They can be assigned to Water, Wood, Earth or to assist others.
 * Two damage dealers - They can be any class. Choose based on which pavilion needs defending.

Accessing Warsong City
To get started, speak to the Watcher of Earth in any major city and accept the quest "Visit the Sanctuary." This quest will lead you to Dancing Melody in Sanctuary, who will send players to Warsong City.

There are three stages to Warsong City. The first is "Raising Warsong." The second is "Protect the Incarnations." The third is "Heart of the City." The first stage is optional, but completing it will reward your squad with a strong Blessing items and will make the rest of the dungeon easier.

Speak with Ginring inside and choose the "Start the Battle for Warsong" option to begin. Only the leader of the squad can start Warsong. The quest requires 12 Mirage Celestones and at least 2 people in squad, all of them close to Ginring.

Protect the Incarnations
In this stage, you must split your squad between the five Elemental Pavilions of Warsong City. Each pavilion contains one of Clearstream's incarnations, who is attempting to remove the Incacerate's defenses. You must protect these incarnations from the constant Wraith attacks. If an incarnation falls, you will not lose, but the final stage will be harder because of it. The sixth player should be on stand by and help whoever needs it.

Monsters will come one by one, except for the Water Pavilion where they come in waves. A monster, commonly called a "head" will spawn and attack Clearstream. Make sure you aggro it and keep it off the NPC. The head will sometimes spawn pools of poison that deal damage. Make sure you avoid them or use the Genie skill Soul of Fire, as the poison pools deal fire damage. Don't let the head get too close to you because it deals a lot of damage. Use your stunlocking skills to keep it away. When monsters say "Let's die together!" run away from them; they will explode and deal a lot of damage.

Wood Pavilion
Monsters deal melee physical damage and have decent defenses. They sometimes buff themselves or purge your buffs. A Heavy Armor class or an Assassin should be sent to defend it.

Earth Pavilion
Monsters deal melee physical damage but have low magic defenses. They sometimes buff themselves or purge your buffs. A Heavy Armor class or an Assasin should be sent to defend it. Sometimes a caster with good gear can do it too, as the monsters are weak to magic. This pavilion has a lot of room to kite, make sure you don't accidentally lose aggro from the head.

Water Pavilion
Monsters deal melee physical damage and have really high magic defense but fairly low physical defense. They sometimes buff themselves or purge your buffs. They come in waves so class with a lot of AOE skills should be sent to defend it, usually a Blademaster or a Seeker.

Metal Pavilion
Monsters deal ranged metal damage and have decent defenses. They sometimes buff themselves or purge your buffs. A caster class should be sent to defend it. Be careful as the pavilion is small and doesn't have a lot of room to kite.

Fire Pavilion
Monsters deal ranged fire damage and have decent defenses. They sometimes buff themselves or purge your buffs. A caster class should be sent to defend it. Be careful as the pavilion has a lot of corners and monsters might get stuck and reset.

Once the second stage ends, an NPC named Glowing Moon will appear. Speak with him to go to the center of Warsong City and begin the final stage. You can also choose to jump off the platform and be teleported back at the entrance.

Heart of the City
Reunite with your squad and venture down each of the paths radiating out from the center, back to the Elemental Pavilions, and destroy all five of the Incacerate's generals:

The Incacerate
Should you manage to defeat all five generals, you will receive a reward based on your success in the second stage. However, in order to fight the Incacerate himself, you must protect all five of Clearstream's incarnations. Otherwise, you will be unable to face him.

The Incacerate spawns adds at every 20% HP that's taken down. Those adds have to die as soon as possible otherwise the squad will most likely wipe. The first add will cause an AOE seal (or multiple if it doesn't get killed fast). The second add will AOE debuff slow channeling and reduced attack rate (and randomly stun squad members if it doesn't get killed fast). The third add will buff the boss so a Venomancer is needed to purge. The fourth add will AOE purge and knock the Cleric out of Regeneration Aura. The last add will make boss Frenzy and needs to be purged as soon as possible.

The boss also spawns three adds that are called 105. In 60 seconds, the squad has to kill the single mob that's different than the other two. If the squad fails they get a second chance. If they fail again, the boss will disappear. Make sure your squad doesn't AOE until after these three mobs have spawned and the correct one has been killed.

After the boss is killed, you can summon Vile: The Incacerate by talking to the NPC. The Vile version of this boss is a lot easier to kill and doesn't spawn any adds.
