== Quest Overview ==
== Overview ==
Access to the floating [[Mhoire Castle]] has finally been achieved. Secure the wards of three guardians in [[Graveyard]] before entering the castle to complete several trials, after which you are able to enter the Great Hall and confront the [[Shade of Lord Rytheran]]. There are also a few miniquests inside the castle. Rewards include [[Ancient Mhoire Coins]], substantial xp, and multiple pulls on a special tier 7 loot chest (it may have a higher chance than normal of producing epics).
Access to the floating [[Mhoire Castle]] has finally been achieved. Secure the wards of three guardians in [[Graveyard]] before entering the castle to complete several trials, after which you are able to enter the Great Hall and confront the [[Shade of Lord Rytheran]].


== Walk Through ==
* This guide breaks down each trial individually (by tower). If you have completed the quest more than once, you can do each of the trials in any order you choose.
=== Graveyard - Courtyard Flagging ===
* There are additional miniquests inside the castle that can be carried out while doing the trials.
# Use [[Ancient Stones]] at 66.5S 44.7W to get the [[Strange Jewel]] and a lore item. The lore item can be translated in Kuyiza in Zaikhal (optional). All party members must use the Ancient Stones (the Guardian Statue won't accept the brands you will pick up if you have not used the stones and have the [[Strange Jewel]]).
** [[Noble Remains Kill Task]]
# Use [[Strange Jewel]] near SW bunker of the five near GY Colo building at 65.0S 44.2W to spawn [[Lady Saliane]] who spawns inside bunker. Kill for 3 items (1 per person).
** [[Guardian Statue Kill Task]]
# Use [[Strange Jewel]] near edge of graveyard SW of the pyre oak chest at 66.6S 45.2W to spawn [[Lord Hendrel]] in the open. Kill for 2nd item.
** [[Spectral Fountain Quest]]
# Use [[Strange Jewel]] under floating castle at 65.1S 45.5W to spawn [[Lord Trimere]] in the open for final, 3rd item.
** [[Oubliette of Mhoire Castle Quest]]
# Hand all three items to the right gargoyle statue that normally starts the GY colo
# A blue portal will briefly open to the right that only the person that handed the three items can enter.
# Go to NE corner of platform and find portal to tower (it currently does not show on radar, but should be fixed later).


=== Southeast Tower - Flames of Courage ===
;Prerequisites
# Talk to the Shade of Antemy at the drop to flag for the 3 trials. There are also 2 other NPCs in the lobby that give other mini quests that can be repeated every 20 hours for a coin and xp.
* Complete [[Guardians of Mhoire Castle]].
# From the drop, stick left until you reach a large room; take the SE corner door then stick left into through to another large room; take the NW door then stick left to the first test.<br>[[File:8C03.png|100px|link=Media:8C03.png]]
# This test requires you to talk to the Guardian of Mhoire Statue in the middle of a room filled with Flame Guardian creatures and insta-kill flaming skulls. Watch the patterns or pop a Flame Protection rare. Talk to the statue to receive a Sword of Courage, then kill Flame Guardians, when they die their corpse becomes usable for 1-3 seconds.
# Use their corpse (it'll be a yellow dot like an NPC) to receive a flame. Collect 10 then talk to the Guardian of Mhoire Statue to finish.


=== Northwest Tower - Rite of Wisdom ===
== Walkthrough & Notes ==
# From the drop, stick left to a large room and take the NW door then stick left through to another large room; take the SE door and stick left to the next test.
=== Entering the Castle ===
# For this test you will be harassed by several [[Guardian Statue]]s that respawn as fast as you can kill them. They spam bludgeon wars so you will either need someone to run around to distract them or use a Bludgeon Ward rare or a Magic Defense rare to avoid death.
# Use west gargoyle statue at 64.6S 44.1W to summon the portal to Mhoire Castle.
# This test requires you to talk to the Guardian of Mhoire statue who will send you a block of green text similar to the following:
# The portal will drop you in the ruins of Mhoire Castle up on the hill. There are various portals around the ruins which go to the different towers of the castle.
#:<font color=green>DJZZKKE FBKV PTJ EKZCABKN MTNK</font>
#* Note: For first timers, the only portal which works is the northeast tower portal. Once you've completed the quest for the first time, you can use the individual portals around the castle to access each tower trial quickly.
#:<font color=green>KLZB OJLNE CV TNEKN CD PTJN ZBTNK</font>
# Enter the northeast tower and speak with [[Shade of Antemy]]. He assigns you three trials to complete, one in each of the remaining three towers.
#:<font color=green>XBK WCNDX XTJZB FCVED FBKNK WLMZTVD '''DTLN'''</font>
# {{Optional}} Speak to the [[Shade of Fordroth]] and the [[Shade of Ormend]] to flag for two additional kill tasks.
#:<font color=green>XBK VKUX BKLN ZNLDBCVO FLHKD TV '''DBTNK'''</font>
#:<font color=green>XBK XBCNE DKKQ ELIZCVO WMLIKD XBLX '''NTLN'''</font>
#:<font color=green>XBK MLDX WCVE DXNTVOKDX ITJVXLCV '''ZTNK'''</font>
#:<font color=green>RLVCDBIKVX WTN L ZBTCZK ITDX ATTN</font>
#:<font color=green>DJZZKDD LVE XBKV C ILNQ XBK ETTN</font>
# The middle 4 lines are the important part. Their order is random and dictates which statues to use first. Above is a full translation so I'll just give a quick way to reason it out:
##DTLN = Air
##DBTNK = Water
##NTLN = Flame
##ZTNK = Earth
# Use them in order (out of order will portal you to the drop) then talk to the Guardian of Mhoire statue to complete this task.<br>
#* <font color=red>BUG = The riddle that tells you the order of Air, Water, Flame, then Earth is bugged and upon using the third statue will send you back to the start. If you get this riddle then use the statue again until you get a new one.</font>


=== Southwest Tower - Flames of Virtue ===
=== Part 1: The Trials ===
[[File:Guardian of Mhoire Room Flames Map.png|right]]
==== Southeast Tower - Flames of Courage ====
# From the drop, stick left to a large room and take the NW door. From here, stick left to another large room; use the SW door then stick left to another large room. # In here simply take the NE door and stick left to the third test.
# {{Optional}} If you plan on using a flame protection rare, it is recommended to complete the Southeast and Southwest trials together, so you can benefit from the rare in both trials.
# This room brings back the insta-kill skulls (flame rare helps). Talk to the Guardian of Mhoire statue to receive a Sword of Virtue and a green message dictating which flame to drop it in.
# From the Northeast tower drop, stick left until you reach a large room; take the SE corner door then stick left into through to another large room; take the NW door then stick left to the first test.
# The map to the right shows the names and locations of the flames. When you drop the Sword of Virtue into a flame you'll receive a green message telling you where next to drop it. If you give it ot the wrong one or hand it in twice on accident (sometimes it'll tell you to drop it in one again, that's fine) then talk to the statue to get a new one.
# Talk to the [[Guardian of Mhoire]] statue in the middle of the room to receive a {{Itemlink|Mhoire Sword of Courage}}.
# Eventually you'll get a message saying to bring it back to the statue; do that and you'll pass the final test.
#* Note:  The room filled with [[Flame Guardian]]s and high damage [[Flaming Skull]]s. If you get hit by one, heal immediately as a 2nd hit will likely kill you.
#* {{Tip}} Watch the patterns and you can avoid most [[Flaming Skull]]s.  
#* {{Tip}} If you use an [[Inferno's Jewel]] (flame protection rare), the Flaming Skulls will not harm you at all.
# Once you've received the sword, kill 10 [[Flame Guardian]]s and loot a {{Itemlink|Crystallized Blue Flame}} from each of their corpses.
#* Note: The corpses (indicated by a yellow dot on the map) only last 1 to 3 seconds, so you must loot after each kill.  
# Once you've collected 10 flames, speak to the Guardian of Mhoire Statue to complete the trial.


=== Great Hall - Cleansing the Throne ===
==== Northwest Tower - Rite of Wisdom ====
# Talk to the Shade of Antemy at the drop to flag for the Grand Hall portal across the room from him. Head inside and you'll be in a series of rooms with various doors. Take the following:
# From the northeast tower drop, stick left to a large room and take the NW door then stick left through to another large room; take the SE door and stick left to the next test.
## South double door
# For this test you will be harassed by several [[Guardian Statue]]s that respawn as fast as you can kill them. They spam war magic, so you will need to be quick or have someone else heal you while you solve the puzzle.
# Talk to the [[Guardian of Mhoire]] statue in the middle of the room to receive a block of green text ''similar'' to the following ('''Each clue is different'''):
#: DJZZKKE FBKV PTJ EKZCABKN MTNK<br>KLZB OJLNE CV TNEKN CD PTJN ZBTNK<br>XBK WCNDX XTJZB FCVED FBKNK WLMZTVD '''DTLN''' - Air (West)<br>XBK VKUX BKLN ZNLDBCVO FLHKD TV '''DBTNK''' - Water (South)<br>XBK XBCNE DKKQ ELIZCVO WMLIKD XBLX '''NTLN''' - Fire (North)<br>XBK MLDX WCVE DXNTVOKDX ITJVXLCV '''ZTNK''' - Earth (East)<br>RLVCDBIKVX WTN L ZBTCZK ITDX ATTN<br>DJZZKDD LVE XBKV C ILNQ XBK ETTN
# Use each of the four stationary statues located around the room that correspond with the clues above.
#* {{Warning}} You must use the statues in the order that you read them in your clue. If you use the statues out of order (you will be portaled to the start), or run out of time, simply talk to the statue again and you will be given a new order and the task starts over.
#* {{Optional}} After receiving your clue, run to the side hallway so you can safely identify the order of the statues you need to use.
## [[Guardian of Fire]] is the '''North''' statue.
## [[Guardian of Water]] is the '''South''' statue.
## [[Guardian of Earth]] is the '''East''' statue.
## [[Guardian of Air]] is the '''West''' statue.
# If you use all 4 statues in the correct order, you will receive a message stating that you have completed the task, and been awarded the title reward.
 
==== Southwest Tower - Flames of Virtue ====
# From the drop of the northeast tower, stick left to a large room and take the NW door. From here, stick left to another large room; use the SW door then stick left to another large room. Finally, take the NE door and stick left to find the third test.
# You will enter a room with high damage [[Flaming Skull]]s (similar to the Southeast tower). These skulls can one or two hit you, so be careful to avoid them!
#*{{Optional}} If you use an [[Inferno's Jewel]] (flame protection rare), you can avoid taking damage from the skulls.
# Talk to the [[Guardian of Mhoire]] statue in the middle of the room to receive a {{Itemlink|Mhoire Sword of Virtue}}, and a green message dictating which flame to drop it in.
#* Note: The map (see right) shows the names and locations of the flames.
# Drop the sword into the flame that corresponds with the message you received.  If you're correct, you'll receive yet another message, indicating where to drop the sword next. 
#* Note: It is possible to receive the same statue twice in a row.
# Once you've dropped the sword into a number of correct flames, you will receive a message telling you to bring the sword back to the Guardian of Mhoire statue. '''Talk''' to the Guardian to complete the trial.
#* Note: If you hand the sword to the wrong statue, simply speak with the Guardian of Mhoire again to get a new sword and start again.
# Return the sword to the Guardian of Mhoire, and if you've done the test correctly, you will receive a message indicating you have passed the test and been awarded the title reward.
 
=== Part 2: The Great Hall - Cleansing the Throne ===
# Talk to the [[Shade of Antemy]] at the northeast tower drop to flag for the Mhoire Castle Great Hall Portal (across the room from him).
# Enter the Mhoire Castle Great Hall Portal and you'll be in a series of rooms with various doors. Take the following:
## South double door
## NE double door
## NE double door
## East then North corner
## East then North corner
Line 80: Line 80:
## North then West corner (killable doors)
## North then West corner (killable doors)
## SW double door
## SW double door
## South double door (killable doors)<br><br>
## Head south through the double door (killable doors), and enter the Mhoire Throne Room
# You'll now be in the Mhoire Throne Room. Each person with you -must- use the Throne. The Shade of Lord Rytheran (Undead, weak to fire/acid) will spawn along with numerous GY creatures. When he dies, he may drop some GY coins and will always drop 9 green rings. Take this ring to the Shade of Antemy (talk to him, don't hand him it) to receive your rewards:
# Use the [[Ancient Throne]] to spawn the [[Shade of Lord Rytheran]] and a horde of his [[Wight]]s.
* Champion of House Mhoire title
# Each person in your group must loot a {{Itemlink|Rytheran's Jeweled Ring}} (drops 9) from his corpse.
* 50% xp towards your next level (no cap)
#* Note: For ranged characters this is solo-able, use the Throne and hop onto a pillar.  
* 2 GY coins
#* {{Optional}} The Shade of Lord Rytheran (Undead, weak to fire/acid/pierceSB) will spawn along with numerous GY creatures. The various GY creatures will respawn reather quickly in the spot they are killed. Make use of doors in the vicinity as you see appropriate.
* 5-pull Mhoire Treasurey Chest Key (misc. MFK loot). One of the chests is found on the path from the killable door in the Throne Room on the South wall (stick left to get to one, stick right to get to the other). There is a 2nd past the throne room through a killable door.
# Head back to the Northeast tower and speak to the [[Shade of Antemy]] to receive your rewards.
* Mhoire Treasury Chests always drop at least 2 level 8 spell components, as well as MFK type loot.
# Use the keys in the the legendary chest room located with the [[Sealed Treasury Vault]]s beyond the Mhoire Throne Room. You must go back to the Great Hall and beyond the throne to use the keys.  Also note that the legendary chests are in separate rooms for each type of chest (Armor, Weapon, Magic).
 
Notes
* '''Important:''' If you die while fighting the [[Shade of Lord Rytheran]], you will not be able to respawn him on your own.  If you speak to the [[Shade of Antemy]], he will tell you that you must abandon the quest and try again in two weeks, or else go with someone else to spawn him.  At this point, your best bet is to get someone else to spawn the boss, and simply loot [[Rytheran's Jeweled Ring]] when you've killed him.
* Similar to how ghosts used to not always drop bodies, the same issue seems to be true for the [[Flame Guardian]]s, when they are winding up to cast and are killed there's no corpse.
* The ring has a 2 week timer on pickup, but you must complete the three tower trials again before the Shade of Antemy will reward you for repeat runs. That is you can pick up the ring, but if you have not completed the three trials and used the throne, you will not be rewarded by Antemy (you can do the trials and use the throne after picking up the ring if you forget).
* If you use the [[Ancient Throne]] but fail to kill Lord Rytheran you can run back (slow respawn), but you cannot activate the Throne to spawn him again. You must either get another character to spawn Lord Rytheran by using the Throne or talk to the Shade of Antemy to reset your quest entirely.

=== Opening Dialog ===
:Shade of Antemy tells you, "In life I was the Seneschal of House Mhoire. In ancient times I walked these halls and served Lord Cynreft Mhoire."
:Shade of Antemy tells you, "When the vile Rytheran rained destruction on these halls he used the dark magic of his foul tome to corrupt the throne of house Mhoire."
:Shade of Antemy tells you, "This corruption is bound to the throne and bears his likeness to mock us. This aberration brings despair to the spirits of this place."
:Shade of Antemy tells you, "To destroy this corruption you must earn the purest flame by completing all three tests to prove your worth as a champion of House Mhoire."
:Shade of Antemy tells you, "Fight your way to the top of each castle tower and complete the tests there. When you have completed all three return to me."

Castle of Lord Mhoire Quest
Level: 125
Rec. Level: 200
Type: Fellowship
Starts With: Shade of Antemy
Starts At: Mhoire Castle
Route: Graveyard at 64.6S, 44.1W
Repeat: 20 Hours
Contracts: Contract for Mhoire Castle

Overview

Access to the floating Mhoire Castle has finally been achieved. Secure the wards of three guardians in Graveyard before entering the castle to complete several trials, after which you are able to enter the Great Hall and confront the Shade of Lord Rytheran.

Prerequisites

Walkthrough & Notes

Entering the Castle

  1. Use west gargoyle statue at 64.6S 44.1W to summon the portal to Mhoire Castle.
  2. The portal will drop you in the ruins of Mhoire Castle up on the hill. There are various portals around the ruins which go to the different towers of the castle.
    • Note: For first timers, the only portal which works is the northeast tower portal. Once you've completed the quest for the first time, you can use the individual portals around the castle to access each tower trial quickly.
  3. Enter the northeast tower and speak with Shade of Antemy. He assigns you three trials to complete, one in each of the remaining three towers.
  4. Optional: Speak to the Shade of Fordroth and the Shade of Ormend to flag for two additional kill tasks.

Part 1: The Trials

Southeast Tower - Flames of Courage

  1. Optional: If you plan on using a flame protection rare, it is recommended to complete the Southeast and Southwest trials together, so you can benefit from the rare in both trials.
  2. From the Northeast tower drop, stick left until you reach a large room; take the SE corner door then stick left into through to another large room; take the NW door then stick left to the first test.
  3. Talk to the Guardian of Mhoire statue in the middle of the room to receive a Mhoire Sword of Courage.
    • Note: The room filled with Flame Guardians and high damage Flaming Skulls. If you get hit by one, heal immediately as a 2nd hit will likely kill you.
    • Tip: Watch the patterns and you can avoid most Flaming Skulls.
    • Tip: If you use an Inferno's Jewel (flame protection rare), the Flaming Skulls will not harm you at all.
  4. Once you've received the sword, kill 10 Flame Guardians and loot a Crystallized Blue Flame from each of their corpses.
    • Note: The corpses (indicated by a yellow dot on the map) only last 1 to 3 seconds, so you must loot after each kill.
  5. Once you've collected 10 flames, speak to the Guardian of Mhoire Statue to complete the trial.

Northwest Tower - Rite of Wisdom

  1. From the northeast tower drop, stick left to a large room and take the NW door then stick left through to another large room; take the SE door and stick left to the next test.
  2. For this test you will be harassed by several Guardian Statues that respawn as fast as you can kill them. They spam war magic, so you will need to be quick or have someone else heal you while you solve the puzzle.
  3. Talk to the Guardian of Mhoire statue in the middle of the room to receive a block of green text similar to the following (Each clue is different):
    DJZZKKE FBKV PTJ EKZCABKN MTNK
    KLZB OJLNE CV TNEKN CD PTJN ZBTNK
    XBK WCNDX XTJZB FCVED FBKNK WLMZTVD DTLN - Air (West)
    XBK VKUX BKLN ZNLDBCVO FLHKD TV DBTNK - Water (South)
    XBK XBCNE DKKQ ELIZCVO WMLIKD XBLX NTLN - Fire (North)
    XBK MLDX WCVE DXNTVOKDX ITJVXLCV ZTNK - Earth (East)
    RLVCDBIKVX WTN L ZBTCZK ITDX ATTN
    DJZZKDD LVE XBKV C ILNQ XBK ETTN
  4. Use each of the four stationary statues located around the room that correspond with the clues above.
    • Warning: You must use the statues in the order that you read them in your clue. If you use the statues out of order (you will be portaled to the start), or run out of time, simply talk to the statue again and you will be given a new order and the task starts over.
    • Optional: After receiving your clue, run to the side hallway so you can safely identify the order of the statues you need to use.
    1. Guardian of Fire is the North statue.
    2. Guardian of Water is the South statue.
    3. Guardian of Earth is the East statue.
    4. Guardian of Air is the West statue.
  5. If you use all 4 statues in the correct order, you will receive a message stating that you have completed the task, and been awarded the title reward.

Southwest Tower - Flames of Virtue

  1. From the drop of the northeast tower, stick left to a large room and take the NW door. From here, stick left to another large room; use the SW door then stick left to another large room. Finally, take the NE door and stick left to find the third test.
  2. You will enter a room with high damage Flaming Skulls (similar to the Southeast tower). These skulls can one or two hit you, so be careful to avoid them!
    • Optional: If you use an Inferno's Jewel (flame protection rare), you can avoid taking damage from the skulls.
  3. Talk to the Guardian of Mhoire statue in the middle of the room to receive a Mhoire Sword of Virtue, and a green message dictating which flame to drop it in.
    • Note: The map (see right) shows the names and locations of the flames.
  4. Drop the sword into the flame that corresponds with the message you received. If you're correct, you'll receive yet another message, indicating where to drop the sword next.
    • Note: It is possible to receive the same statue twice in a row.
  5. Once you've dropped the sword into a number of correct flames, you will receive a message telling you to bring the sword back to the Guardian of Mhoire statue. Talk to the Guardian to complete the trial.
    • Note: If you hand the sword to the wrong statue, simply speak with the Guardian of Mhoire again to get a new sword and start again.
  6. Return the sword to the Guardian of Mhoire, and if you've done the test correctly, you will receive a message indicating you have passed the test and been awarded the title reward.

Part 2: The Great Hall - Cleansing the Throne

  1. Talk to the Shade of Antemy at the northeast tower drop to flag for the Mhoire Castle Great Hall Portal (across the room from him).
  2. Enter the Mhoire Castle Great Hall Portal and you'll be in a series of rooms with various doors. Take the following:
    1. South double door
    2. NE double door
    3. East then North corner
    4. NW double door
    5. NW double door
    6. North then West corner (killable doors)
    7. SW double door
    8. Head south through the double door (killable doors), and enter the Mhoire Throne Room
  3. Use the Ancient Throne to spawn the Shade of Lord Rytheran and a horde of his Wights.
  4. Each person in your group must loot a Rytheran's Jeweled Ring (drops 9) from his corpse.
    • Note: For ranged characters this is solo-able, use the Throne and hop onto a pillar.
    • Optional: The Shade of Lord Rytheran (Undead, weak to fire/acid/pierceSB) will spawn along with numerous GY creatures. The various GY creatures will respawn reather quickly in the spot they are killed. Make use of doors in the vicinity as you see appropriate.
  5. Head back to the Northeast tower and speak to the Shade of Antemy to receive your rewards.
  6. Use the keys in the the legendary chest room located with the Sealed Treasury Vaults beyond the Mhoire Throne Room. You must go back to the Great Hall and beyond the throne to use the keys. Also note that the legendary chests are in separate rooms for each type of chest (Armor, Weapon, Magic).

Notes

  • Important: If you die while fighting the Shade of Lord Rytheran, you will not be able to respawn him on your own. If you speak to the Shade of Antemy, he will tell you that you must abandon the quest and try again in two weeks, or else go with someone else to spawn him. At this point, your best bet is to get someone else to spawn the boss, and simply loot Rytheran's Jeweled Ring when you've killed him.
  • Similar to how ghosts used to not always drop bodies, the same issue seems to be true for the Flame Guardians, when they are winding up to cast and are killed there's no corpse.
  • The ring has a 2 week timer on pickup, but you must complete the three tower trials again before the Shade of Antemy will reward you for repeat runs. That is you can pick up the ring, but if you have not completed the three trials and used the throne, you will not be rewarded by Antemy (you can do the trials and use the throne after picking up the ring if you forget).
  • If you use the Ancient Throne but fail to kill Lord Rytheran you can run back (slow respawn), but you cannot activate the Throne to spawn him again. You must either get another character to spawn Lord Rytheran by using the Throne or talk to the Shade of Antemy to reset your quest entirely.

Dialog

Opening Dialog

Shade of Antemy tells you, "In life I was the Seneschal of House Mhoire. In ancient times I walked these halls and served Lord Cynreft Mhoire."
Shade of Antemy tells you, "When the vile Rytheran rained destruction on these halls he used the dark magic of his foul tome to corrupt the throne of house Mhoire."
Shade of Antemy tells you, "This corruption is bound to the throne and bears his likeness to mock us. This aberration brings despair to the spirits of this place."
Shade of Antemy tells you, "To destroy this corruption you must earn the purest flame by completing all three tests to prove your worth as a champion of House Mhoire."
Shade of Antemy tells you, "Fight your way to the top of each castle tower and complete the tests there. When you have completed all three return to me."
