[edit] Walkthrough
Talk to Kormir in Lion's Gate. She will ask you if you are ready to face the danger that has come to Lion's Arch. When you respond "yes", you will be taken to the mission. Your party will be in a mission stance of Lion's Arch, with mission rules. If your party is wiped out, the quest is failed.
You need to close four Chaos Rifts to defend Lion's Arch while fighting or avoiding groups of Wrathful Storms (Lvl 24), Grasp of Insanity (18, 22), and Torment Claws (20, 22, 24) in the area. To close a rift stand under them to capture and close them. A red bar on the left side of your screen will indicate how far the rift has to go to close and how quickly it is closing. When the bar turns blue, the rift has closed.
Each rift is guarded by a Wrathful Storm (Lvl 24) and a Grasp of Insanity (18, 22). You may avoid killing them while you capture the rift but they may capture the rifts back. Once all four rifts are closed, a 30 second timer counts down. This is the time you must hold all four rifts.
Once your party is ready, head to Lion's Gate and talk to Kormir there. Travel to Elona and get your reward.
[edit] Dialogue
[edit] Initial dialogue
Lionguard Figo
- "Greetings, <character name>. Someone has been looking for you. Kormir, spearmarshal of the illustrious Sunspears, has traveled here from the lands of Elona to the south. She has been asking most diligently after you. Kormir awaits you at the Lion's Gate. Lionguard Bedo will grant you entrance to speak with her."
- Accept: "I will find this Kormir and speak with her."
- Decline: "I have more pressing matters to attend to."
- When asked about quest: "Speak to Kormir in Lion's Gate to learn why she has arrived in Kryta."
[edit] Intermediate dialogue
Lionguard Bedo
- "Ah good, <character name>, you were found. A rather important guest has arrived from Elona, and she has been asking about you. She awaits you in Lion's Gate."
Kormir
- "Ahai, <character name>. I am Spearmarshal Kormir, leader of the Sunspears from the lands of Elona to the southeast. Our Order has been entrusted with defending the three provinces of Elona... Istan, Kourna, and Vabbi... from those who would seek to bring our lands to ruin. An evil has risen in Elona; a darkness we cannot hope to fight alone. I come here now in search of heroes who will help us battle this evil, which surely seeks to devour us all.
- I speak of Nightfall, a darkness that threatens Elona and will envelop all our lands if it is not stopped. Even now its tendrils stretch out to bring ruin to Lion's Arch! I can sense it! If you are the caliber of hero I seek, prove it by defeating this evil here in your home. Make haste, though. Your own lands are in great peril! Are you prepared to begin the defense of Lion's Arch?"
- Kormir: "You have now witnessed the darkness that threatens to destroy us all and triumphed over it. I fear that the leader of the Elonian province of Kourna, Varesh Ossa, is responsible. I ask of you, come to Elona and help the Sunspears defeat here before she brings ruin down upon us all! Finish your important tasks here in Tyria, and return to me when you are ready. I will then arrange travel to Elona so you may help us make a stand against this evil.
- Kormir: "If you have completed your business here in Tyria and wish to join the Sunspears in the defense of Elona, I have a ship prepared to leave immediately. Are you ready to travel to Elona and battle against the coming darkness?"
[edit] Reward dialogue
Seamarshal Bendro
- "Kormir told me to expect you, <character name>. We Sunspears are indeed lucky to have such great heroes volunteer to join our battle against the evil that threatens Elona. There is much that must be done to prepare you for the battle that awaits us. When you're ready, I will direct you on your way."
[edit] Notes
- This quest unlocks Kamadan, Jewel of Istan port.
- There will be some fights with high level enemies, so it's strongly advised not to go alone.
- Henchmen here are level 10, so it may be difficult doing this quest with only henchmen.
- This quest is mutually exclusive with Sunspears in Cantha. If a member of the party has that quest active, you cannot begin Sunspears in Kryta.
- Make sure no party members leave when the quest has been completed, and you need to arrange to travel to Elona with Kormir; if all party members are not there, you cannot travel.
- It is recommended that Sunspears in Cantha be completed instead when using henchmen (if travel to Kaineng Center has already been unlocked). Henchmen in Kaineng Center are level 20, while henchmen in Lion's Arch are level 10. Kaineng Center also has a max party size of 8 while Lion's Arch has a max party size of only 6.
