Usage

Running to the Ooze Pit

Aggro-less path to the Ooze Pit.

• To begin with, you'll need to grab the quest Watch it Jiggle from Seer Fiercereign. Exit out of Doomlore Shrine into Dalada Uplands and head east. Talk to Seer Fiercereign and obtain the quest Watch it Jiggle.
• Map to Longeye's Ledge exit into Grothmar Wardowns.
• Flag your heros at the portal, and head to the bridge to your West. Avoid all groups on the way down.
• Once you're on the bridge, you'll see a group of Charr Rangers heading your way. Ignore them and don't aggro them.
• Once the Charr Rangers have left, wait for a second mob of Charr to come to the bridge. Once they are leaving, follow closely behind them, being careful not to aggro the group.
• Once the patrol leaves the path, follow the map on the right of this article.
• From the resurrection shrine, head into the forest, staying on the path that leads to the dungeon.
• Alternatively, have a party member run to the dungeon for you.

In the Ooze Pit

• Have your Smiter cast Retribution, Holy Wrath, Life Attunement and Vital Blessing on you.
• Cast all of your maintainable enchantments on yourself.
• Before aggravating a group, have your Smiter cast Spell Breaker on you.
• Pick up and drop Unstable Gelatinous Materials to help kill the mob you are facing.
• Head due north until you get to the room with the Boulders rolling around. Flag your heros at the Shrine, and open the door. Kill the mob.
• Head east until you get to a shrine (killing all mobs along the way). From the shrine, head north-east. Eventually you should find yourself at the entrance of what seems to be an underground passage. Go into the passage, killing all of the groups inside, and step on the lever at the end of the passage. Go back to the entrance of the passage.
• Head east and you should find yourself in a room with a bunch of coffins. Kill the mobs in that room.
• Now, two Stormcloud Incubi drop down from the ceiling in a tunnel, DO NOT ENTER THE TUNNEL:
• Now head through the open door north-east of the resurrection shrine and kill whatever you find in there. There should be an elementalist boss called Gloop. Kill Gloop and get the boss key from him.
• Head back to the underground passage, and there should be a path to your left when you exit the passage. Go through the underground passage and you should find a room with two boulders.
• Run through the room and kill the group in front of the boss room. Enter the boss room.

Prismatic Oozes (The Boss Room)

Dungeon completion in 39 minutes on second attempt (3 deaths - Ether Nightmare team variant).

• Cast Protective Spirit and Spirit Bond. Make sure your heros and the rest of the group is well back, have your smiter cast Spell Breaker, and aggro the Prismatic Oozes up the platform. Try and go towards the edge of the platform so that when your Smiter casts Spell Breaker, you won't break aggro.
• Maintain Protective Spirit, Spirit Bond, and SoA as often as possible.
• You'll notice that when the Prismatic Oozes take damage, they'll use Gelatinous Absorption. After aproximately 15 seconds, you'll see the Ooze's health going down. Immediately cast Pain Inverter and Ray of Judgment on that Prismatic Ooze.
• Take down one Prismatic Ooze at a time.
• Prismatic Oozes should die within one casting of Pain Inverter/Ray of Judgment unless you have improper timing.
• Once a Prismatic Ooze dies, have your Smiter cast Spell Breaker if you don't already have it up, and kill the group that spawns. Rinse and repeat for the other two oozes.
• Please note that timing with Pain Inverter/Ray of Judgment is very difficult, and takes practice.

Notes

• If you're an experienced runner, then the run should take you about 30 minutes to do.
• The first time running this dungeon, I was able to run it in 50 minutes.
• The Prismatic Chest has a chance of dropping a Chrysocola Staff and a Cerulean Edge.
• It is recommended to have an Allegiance rank of at least 3 before attempting this dungeon to speed up the process of killing the boss at the end.
