AREA: Praxia

DIRECTIONS: Town Portal to Tower of Doors, go down 2 flights of stairs, head East in the Catacombs and it's marked on the map.

LOCKS: Max of 55

NOTES:

With the recent changes in the API, this area can be challenging. All sorts of encounters that are pretty well rounded. At the time of this post, some of the loot that is currently dropping there does not conform to the API, therefore I will not include it here but instead just mark "LOOT". The current drops, I have been told are under revision and since the API change makes this is a tougher area, even though the loot drops are decent now, hopefully they will get even better.

SANCTUARY:


 * Initiate (48): Sword fighters that have 49 AB, do slashing/sonic dmg, and 20 physical resistances.


 * Sacrificed Vassel (36): Undead archers, with 49 AB, doe piercing/electrical dmg.


 * Etheral Surrogate (35): Casters that dispell, magic missle, neg energy ray, fire arrow.


 * Guardian Fistmaster (52): Monks, decent AC, Bludge and sonic from a magic shield, 42 AB, DROPS GRT RESTORE SCROLL.


 * Rectorial Vicar (38): Casters, decent damaging Ice Storms, and DROPS STONESKIN SCROLL.

TACTICS: Kill the Surrogates first. Since they dispell it't tough to keep buffs and more importantly Immunity to mind/death up. If you want use darkness on them and kill them later. After that I'd go after the Vicars. IGMMs and Grapple work as do most other spells.


 * Sacramental Prelate (53): Clerics, cast Harm, 64 AB, Sunbeam, and a heafty Destruction spell (DC 75 vs Death). DROPS RES SCROLL.


 * Reprobate (58): Vampire Rogues, that have a vamp touch, 44 AB, and sneak.


 * Adjudicator (45): Spiders that sneak, slash and have a magic shield. LVL 9 grapple works.


 * Repository (61): Wisp that seems to cast endless Horrids. These Repositories are found at the end of each "mini boss" and this one DROPS: PRAXIAN RING OF ADJUDICATOR.

PATROL SECTOR


 * Ashart (76): Cleric that cast Harm, Destruction, sunbeam. Once again, DC 75 vs Death. DROPS PRAXIAN RING OF ASHART.


 * Lavos (83): Caster that has Time Stop, Horrids, Ice, and High AC. You might want to try to counterspell him if you or your mage is comfortable doing so. DROPS: PRAXIAN RING OF LAVOS.


 * Millith (53) Archer with 78 AB, Imm to death, crits, and sneaks. He has some decent AC as well, IGMMS work well. DROPS: RING OF MILLITH.


 * Rage (?): Sword slinger with 56 AB, does slashing/magic/cold dmg.

SANCTUARIAL INTERIOR


 * Inspector (97): Beholder, DROPS: RING of INSPECTOR

CARDINAL HALL


 * Counsil Member (73): Casters that are immune to IGMMS and KD. They have over 60 AC but negative energy works best. Harm them if you have it.


 * Custodian (59): Paladins that use HA, have some Immunity to Electric.


 * Repository (61): Same as before, DROPS PRAXIAN GREATSWORD (which is a pretty decent non-HA greatsword)

SACRED PASSAGE


 * Sensei Fistmaster (103): Monks that are not sneak immune but it would seem that you can't flank them. They have a sonic magic shield and 72 AB. Decent AC.


 * Greater Praxian Reprobate (170): Vamps that cast Neg Energy Burst and have 57 AB. These can be tough to hit. Lvl 9 Grapple works as well as IGMMS.


 * Warden Adept (118): Do slashing/acid damage, have 80 AB, immune to KD, and has Dev Crits. We tanked him with PMs or grabbed them.

NOTES:

Two more rooms exist, one Northern and one Southern. Both are similar. They both have a Warden or 2 in them, 2 Casting Apostles and a repository.

There is a lot of magic in these 2 rooms. Try counterspelling them to cut down on the Ice and Horrid damage you take. If not, take one caster at a time instead of both at the same time to limit the number of spells cast. They do hurt especially if you get the Repository casting his endless Horrids as well.


 * Apostle of Challa (75): Casts Ice, Horrids, IGMMS
 * Apostle of Praxis (89): Casts Ice, Horrids, IGMMS

LOOT: PRAXIAN GAUNTLET OF MONK, PRAXIAN RING OF CHALLA, and some other goodies....

SIDENOTE: If you are taking your time killing the casters and leave the Reposity for later, you might find that he despawned (it's quick).
