Editing Aerbax's Defeat (Event) (section)

== Summary ==
* Each server had to advance through the gate stone dungeons located at the center of the Obsidian Plains and destroy the devices inside before gaining access to Aerbax's Citadel.
* Someone needed to complete the Quiddity Ingot Purification quests (BDC Quiddity Ingot Purification, Ithaenc Quiddity Ingot Purification and Knorr Quiddity Ingot Purification) to gain the green, purple and yellow ingots.
* The first fellowships to defeat Aerbax were rewarded with {{Itemlink|Aerbax's Defeat}}.

=== East Gate Stone ===
* Location: 64.1S, 62.9W
* Portals surrond this gate stone, but require quest flag to enter. This structure gives off a beam of energy into the sky, similar to the Sanamar Beacon. Standing in this beam drains massive amounts of your health.
* Give the East Gate Stone a purified ingot. Yellow and Green ingots are known to work. This flags you to enter the three portals which surround the stone, the dungeon called '''East Gate'''.
* The dungeon is long and linear, filled with high level shadows and virindi. There are four doors which must be destroyed as you move through the dungeon. The first door is guarded by the [[Drudge Protector]]. The second is guarded by the [[Mosswart Protector]]. The third is guarded by the [[Tusker Protector]]. The fourth is guarded by a [[Shadow-touched Virindi Quidiox]].
* At the end is Aerbax's Device. Giving shadow droppings (specks, slivers, shards, and fragments) slowly disrupts the balance of the device.
* After enough has been given (approximately 100 fragments equivalent), Bonecrunch and Bragara, the Chosen One spawn. Killing Bragara, the Chosen One caused the device to reset to it's non-attackable version and Bonecrunch to vanish.
* Killing the device causes the gate to fall and opens the North Gate.

=== North Gate Stone ===
* Location: 63.2S 63.8W 
* Once the East Gate falls, portals appear in the doorways and you are able to hand another purified ingot to the stone, which flags you for access.
* The North Gate dungeon is similar to the East Gate dungeon in layout and main spawns (shadows and virindi) but the doors are now guarded by, in order, Elenmental Protectors of [[Elemental Protector (Frost)|Frost]], [[Elemental Protector (Fire)|Fire]], [[Elemental Protector (Lightning)|Lightning]], and [[Elemental Protector (Acid)|Acid]]. At the end is another Aerbax Device.
* After handing aproximately 100-120 shadow fragments Mudmouth, Dark Bobo, and Paradox-touched Olthoi Queen spawn. Killing the device causes the gate to fall and opens the West Gate.

=== West Gate Stone ===
* Location: 64.1S 64.7W
* Once the North Gate falls, portals appear in the doorways and you are able to hand another purified ingot to the stone, which flags you for access.

=== South Gate Stone ===
* Location: 65.0S, 63.8W
* Once the West Gate falls this dungeon becomes accessible. It is entirely empty until the final room where you find the emmissary, several diamond guardian golems NPCs, and the portal to Aerbax's Citadel. The Emissary requests 3 crystals from three [[Virindi Artificer]]s that spawn at the other (west/east/north) gates.
* Once you turn in the 3 crystals your fellow is locked and you can proceed through the portal to Aerbax.

=== Aerbax's Citadel ===
* The portal drops you on one of the platforms surrounding the citadel. Aerbax starts out in the center of the Citadel complex but as the fight progresses he will teleport to the outer edges of his floating facility (at every "1" of health i.e. 91%, 81%, 71% etc until 22% where he stays in the center).
* He does electric melee damage and has a nasty DoT effect that strips away health in increments of 20-40 hp as well as conventional spell attacks. Best way to fight him appear to be having everyone attacking with mages Tusker Fisting. Try to keep him in the center of the platform when he is around the edge of the citadel to limit the risk that he'll fall off.
* Occasionally he will teleport you so you drop into the center of the Obsidian Plains. When this happens immediately cast portal recall and you'll be back in the start of the Southern Gate dungeon. A couple minute run through an empty dungeon and you can use the portal to return to the fight.
* When Aerbax dies a number of portals called "Return to the Emissary" spawn. So you can use them after you collect the reward item.
