Mech Anubis Rises Again | Enter the Zodias Catacombs

[Remiem]

MechAnubis Awaits Again

263034

...in the depths of the...

Zodias Catacombs!
An ancient proving ground. Designed by the Drowned Monarch Zaarus to challenge the finest soldiers of the Zodian Guard.

After closing for Season 31, the catacombs are now open again for the duration of Season 32.

You'll have from January 4th 'til April 1st to dominate the Catacombs, collect limited Vanity items, and Arcane gears!

Special Badges and Titles will be awarded to Top Scoring Legends and those that finish the dungeon fastest.

At the end of the Season, the Zodias Catacombs shut down for a season before returning to life!

How to Play



The portal to the Arcane Catacombs can be found in the Heracleion Town interior.
To enter the portal (one time) you will need a "Zodias Arcane Catacombs" key.

Components for crafting the key can be looted (easily) from Zodias Bosses.


263035



The Zodias Arcane Catacombs key Recipe is purchased from Asim. You must be Level 81 and "Advocate" Rank (or higher) to purchase this recipe.


Craft a key and use it on the portal to enter the Arcane Catacombs. The key cannot be traded but it can be stashed. Keys are consumed on use.


Once your Party enters the starting area the door will open and you're on your way! Pick-up / Random groups require four (4) players.

There are no Class restrictions (though balanced classes are encouraged to collect best gold - see Treasure Chambers below).

On Difficulty

This map is hard but it's far from 'impossible.'
Keep in mind it will be slightly more difficult than Season 30, as players have had the opportunity to collect more powerful gear!

Zaarus gear (or higher) is recommended but not required.
As with all endgame content, Hardcore Characters should be very, very careful!

Monster Abilities

Be very careful of monster attack 'red zones.' They can have very damaging effects.
You could be "Blinded" by MechAnubis' 'Robo Crabs' red zone attack.

Blindness slows you down and makes you unable to attack for a while.

Your potions can be "Weakened" by MechAnubis' giant Skeletons' red zone attack.

Potions are significantly less effective for several seconds in this case.

Also: larger monsters' red zone attacks are likely to push / pull you into danger. That danger includes traps...

Traps!
Various traps exist throughout the dungeon.

Unlike the traps you encountered in the Hyberian Labyrinth, the Zodias Catacombs traps aren't inherently deadly...They do affect your gameplay in ways you'll want to avoid:


Sludge Pool

If you touch the Sludge pool you'll be slowed (considerably) for several seconds.

263053

Shrieking Pool

If you tread across the demonic 'Shrieking Pool,' your skills will be silenced for several seconds.
263054

Potboiler Trap

If you get caught in the 'Potboiler Trap,' your potions will be curdled and ineffective for several seconds.
263055

Pet-Eating Vortex

If you are ensnared in the 'Pet-Eating Vortex' your pet will be dismissed and you'll be unable to re-summon for several seconds.
263056

Gold

The gold loot available in the Arcane Catacombs is currently the best in the game.
Offering roughly +30% base gold compared to the richest Zodias maps.


However...
Monsters in the Arcane Catacombs (with the exception of MechAnubis) do not drop gold.
Gold comes from opening treasure chests.
The vast majority of treasure chests will be found in Treasure Chambers.

Treasure Chambers

There are three (3) Treasure Chambers in the Arcane Catacombs.
Each chamber is sealed by an ancient Zaarus Statue and an impassible golden chain.

263057

Only the appropriate Class can open its associated Treasure Chamber...
Rogues can open the Rogues' Treasure Chamber.
Sorcerers can open the Sorcerer's Chamber.
Warriors can open the Warriors' Chamber.
Once a Treasure Chamber is opened all Party members can enter and face a mini-boss.
Defeat the mini-boss to spawn a large number of treasure chests... and loot them for your rewards!

Looking forward to your comments and questions!

Best of luck, Legends!

Great work as always. But is there any update on the suggestion of upgrading power stones to make the +5dmg effective everywhere?

Can you make it so the stone can convert any bound item into its other class counterpart? Eg. Armor for warrior into armor for rogue and vice versa

[Marosok]

Something new added? Traps, Statues or chains into furniture, mecha crab as pet or merman as pet which was mentioned in Zodias Expansion sneak peek? few years ago? There is time to create it, catacombs last 3 months.

[Dffleg]

Same loot like previews season, won t make anyone happy. As i remember from last people a lot didn t loot anything, and if they had loot something, that was bound so useless map. If you can ADD NEW STAR pieces into it, that would be nice, since now everyone has kraken set. The rarity of them could be like arcane bracelets. I don t see many run this map, with same loot for a season again.

[Alexandraiulii]

Sadly only champion rank can purchase recipe..please make it so guardians can also purchase it or else it become useless since champion rank players will not buy recipe/will manipulate prices of the recipe ..make it at least avalaible to guardians ..not many can do champion rank..or by the time they do lvl 91 expansion will come

[recilencia123]

sad all same T.T 0 new literally 🥹

Definitely not - you can reach Champion rank pretty easily... but you do have to try.

Best wishes!

[Tekila]

When you talk about an increase of difficulty does it mean that ennemies will have more stats than before or that there will be more ennemies?

Stats. They will do more damage and have more defense.

[Alexwwe]

Hopefully this time i will loot a kraken armor bound and more mecha weapons

[Alexwwe]

Maybe next season when more time.

[Cinco]

Maybe next season when more time.

The Star Beast stuff is relevant to the Elder Woods campaign and not the Zodias Campaign - this includes the Arcane Catacombs.

I wouldn't expect any Star Beast stuff to show up in Arcane Catacombs tbh.

[Monelgr]

can you guys add these 3 statue as a furniture l would love have Mage furniture my househttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240103/9f3acf1487f368d9a9b850798d11a03e.jpg

I think ekenta /rahabkor give about 10 points..meaning we need 10k bosses i guess for 100k points (champion)

Can we have recipes that convert other arcane bound items to desired class? Not just weapons.

yes they did that alrdy, but u have to be champion zodias rank

[Freckert]

263070

i think this has to be changed?
deluxe mean with wisp, and standard without right

since catacomb 3 months ago happen before wisp being separated, i guess catacomb aura this time is different.

[forzalicia]

It lasts for 3 months..?

It says WEAPONS, I’m asking for all bound arcanes we loot.

[Maxzero]

Are the ingredients to craft key tradable this time?

[Myexera]

So once u used this alter stone on your item . Does it retain your awakened item? Does it destroy jewel in the process ? So you need to remove them first ?

[recilencia123]

maybe recolor mechanubis vanoty set? just saying... sonething different T.T

When you convert an item to a different class using the MechAnubis Alter Stone you lose the original item.

Thank you so much for these two additions: trade-friendly components and _especially_ the ability to convert Mechanubis equipment from one class to another! Once the Altar Stone has been crafted, will it be tradeable?
