Market Fractal (Elona)[edit]


In this fractal, players will attempt to flush out the Mysterious Assassins before they find and kill their targets.


Objectives

- Explore your surroundings
- Find and Kill the Assassins in the crowd. (0/9)
- Defeat the Master Assassin.


Walkthrough[edit]


In this fractal, players will be greeted by large numbers of NPC humans who form a crowd, constantly moving through the area. These humans will not interact with the players in any way, and will actually clip through the player. Any NPC that will do this will seem semi-transparent. Several NPC's, including the enemies and ambient NPC's will be comparatively solid.


- Flush out the Assassins

In this section of the fractal, players will have to be observant.

A large number of the solid NPC's in the instance will be allies; this is the key to the fractal. The 9 Assassins which wander the crowd will also be allies, but will turn hostile when attacking one of these ambient NPC's. After they perform one attack, they will run off to try and cut line of sight with any allies; once they do this they will cast a 5 second skill which will turn them into an ally again.

The nine are divided into 3 groups; 3 will inflict poison on their targets, 3 will inflict bleeding on their targets, and three will inflict burning on their targets. Each of these Assassin's has a patrol route, and will attack their targets carefully; once per time around the Market. Each time they successfully kill a target, they get a bonus of +10% damage for the remainder of the fractal.

No Assassin will cross the path of one who uses the same tactic. They will also repeat the path until they are killed.

Once a player attacks an assassin, the area they are in will clear of the crowd NPC's, making the fight easier to track. This will also occur when the Assassins kill one of their targets. The targets themselves will walk back in from one of the "entrance ways" which mark the edges of the map. They will not move to their previous positions, but will stop around the same area.

Killing all the Assassins will cause the NPC who gave you this task to run into the center of the map, and get killed by the Master Assassin. At this point, the crowd NPC's will begin to avoid the area of the fight.


- Defeat the Master Asssasin

The Master Assassin is a slightly annoying fight. He has three skills up his sleeve;

1. He will cloak and move around the players, regenerating a bit of health as he does. If this Stealth is broken, he will become dazed.

2. He will grab a nearby NPC, and that NPC will take any direct damage for him. Condition damage will still occur on him.

3. At 75% and 25% he will summon undead minions from the corpses of NPC's within the area. These minions will attack the players, hampering their ability to fight. The cast at 25% will be of any remaining corpses in the area that were not summoned during the cast at 75%. The fewer NPC's killed during the first section, the less minions spawned.

Other then this, he will use a ranged attack exclusively, and it's shots may be blocked or reflected ect.

Once the Master Assassin is killed, the fractal will be stabilized and the chest will spawn.
