Here's a pretty indepth guide by Rossay from Broa
"
Oke, so Broa just completed the PQ so I thought I'd make a guide =D
Hope this helps! I should say however, it's more fun to figure it out for yourself. Seriously.
In terms of what level of attackers you'll require to complete the PQ, I'd advise bringing a good few 150~170s.
And remember, BRING APPLES.
NOTE: To begin the PQ it works like a zak squad. Everyone has to sign up. The leader needs to have a crimsonwood keystone and 8 crimson guardian hearts.
I forgot to say, THANKS to everyone who helped complete the PQ in broa!
You guys are made of awesome and win.
Pre-PQ and FACTS.You can enter once per day! (You can enter again if you fail to reach the boss stage).
You'll need a minimum of 10 people although 20 people is advised.
You'll need a load of pots & TONS of all cures. I mean TONS! Well, more like 500.
You need 2 people of each class: i.e. 2 warriors, 2 magicians, 2 archers, 2 pirates and 2 thieves.
I'd advise having at least 3k HP.
There is only 1 type of pendant you can get.
You get 4 pendants per PQ (each boss drops one).
You need haste.
You must be lvl 90+ at least. (Although, a party of all level 90s will fail. It's like sending a party of 30 level 50s to zakum; same principle).
If you die at the bosses you loose 1%.
At level 123 I gained around 5% for doing the whole PQ. It took us around an hour to complete it.
The PQ is not very good for EXP. I think it's more to do with the bonus and pendant.
Stage 1The first stage consists of a long room. Black invincible guardians will start spawning.
Everyone in the party needs to run to the right while pressing up and find the hidden room.
Stage 2Stage 2 consists of a room with 5 tower type things.
There is 1 tower for each class.
Attack the towers with your 3rd job skills til they are all active.
Stage 3Stage 3 is a jump quest.
You will need haste.
Again there are 5 towers which can only be activated by each class' respective 3rd job skills.
Climb up and activate all 5 towers.
Don't worry about the totems; they basically 1/1 you.
Once you're all at the top and have activated all 5 towers go through the portal which will take you to the bottom and go through the bottom portal.
Stage 4Stage 4 is another annoying jump quest filled with fire and stirges.
Same again: climb up and activate the towers with your 3rd job skills.
I believe there are more than 5 towers here so some are fake ones.
Once you have activated them all go through the portal at the bottom.
Stage 5Stage 5 is the main hall way. There are 5 rooms; one for each respective class.
Enter the appropriate room and do as instructed by the statue.
The only room I have done myself is the archer room.
Archer room: Kill all the black guardians and then talk to the statue and he'll give you some ancient bow thingy.
Pirate room:Warrior room:Thief room:Magician room:Kill all monsters and pick up wand that drops (has a heart with wings at top). Must teleport through walls...a LOT of walls.
Once you have all 5 items place them on the hands of the HUGE statue in the main hall.
Go through the portal at the bottom to progress.
Stage 6 ~ BossesStage 6 is finally the long awaited boss stage.
There are a few sniping spots. The bosses do varrying damage.
They mostly do up to 3k damage except the touch damage of the warrior boss which can do over 6k.
The easiest method to completeing this stage is to have all the squad kill the poison witch lady while the warriors keep the other bosses rushed over at one side of the map. Take down the bosses one by one keeping the others occupied by rush.
Note: after the warrior boss dies he will spawn 2 monsters. 1 is only weak to fire and the other is only weak to ice. Get mages to kill them.
The boss to leave til last is the archer boss. He's very difficult compared to the rest.
All of his attacks either stun or seal you. You'll need around 400+ all cures.
Watch out. He can sometimes 1/1 you and then poison for instant death.
Each boss will drop one of the new pendants upon death.
This is a screen shot of the boss battle area. Sorry for the bad quality. Had to use scroll lock as fraps wasn't running >.<''
As you can see I'm an essential part of any boss fight
.
Stage 7 ~ BonusTo get to the bonus go through the door at the right hand side of the boss map. You'll enter a room with once of the Barricade brothers.
Run all the way to the right and go through the door. It'll take you to the bonus map. It's full of funny looking chests.
Break them open for prizes. You have 1 minute inside the room.
The bonus drops scrolls, skill books, a new shield (which I got ^_^), taos, REALLLY weird pots and some other stuff.
The pendant is 300 hp / 300 mp, +5 str, dex, int, luk, +10 watt, +10 matt.
Here's a picture of the shield.
Here's the pendant itself.
