    Default Somberholt Guide

    Heyy all!,

    It's maybe a little bit to late for a guide but I still wanted to make one! First of I made this guide because some asked me a few questions about the stats of Voice sets, the questlines and to help players which became new to cap 61 and start their journey to Luminous Templar/Dark Acolyte. I hope this can make more things clear

    Here we go!,


    The Chancel of Light be unlocked by going to Garetta Village



    Once you arrived in Garetta Village, walk to the Consignment Store (the most may know this as Auction) and talk to 'Ephestis the Doorkeeper'



    Once you clicked at him press at the following sentences:
    1. [Cross your arms on your chest]
    2. Balance guide you!
    3. Thank you

    The NPC will lead you to The Somberholt- Chancel of Light.

    From this town you can return your way to Graveyard, Graveyard is a zone which changes every since run. At Graveyard you can collect points to get ranks, the higher rank the most Daily Quests you unlock.


    The Mausoleum Unlocks

    Mausoleum floors 1-2 Requires: 6.000 Points and 150 Tokens. Which is the 'Order Badge' (75Tokens) and the 'Proof of Acolyte' (75Tokens)

    Mausoleum floors 3-4 Requires: 16.000 Points and 300 Tokens. Which is the 'Honored Badge' (150Tokens) and the 'Proof of Advocate' (150Tokens)

    Mausoleum floors 5-6 Requires: 55.000 Points and 550 Tokens. Which is the 'Exemplary Badge' (250Tokens) and the 'Proof of Lightbearer' (300Tokens)

    During all these Mausoleums Floors you also reach serveral ranks before or after the Mausoleum Requirements.


    The rank system:
    For each mob or boss you kill you'll grant one point, the amount of points is unlimited .


    The points each rank are the following:

    0-1.999: Outsider (+0 Dailies)

    2.000-5.999: Apprentice (+0 Dailies)

    6.000-15.999: Acolyte (+1Daily)

    16.000-29.999: Advocate (+1Daily also a small damage buff of around +30 damage)

    30.000-54.999: Disciple (+2Dailies also a small armor buff from around +350-400 Armor)

    55.000-109.999 Lightbearer (+2Dailies also you grant a Coffin vanity backpack!)

    Coffin backpack


    110.000+: Elite Lightbearer (You'll grant a 'Lightbearer Order Sigil Banner')

    Lightbearer Order Sigil Banner


    110.000+ & Completed Questline: Dark Acolyte/Luminous Templar (You'll be able to craft Voice of the Order set)


    The Exalted Questline

    This Questline starts actually after hitting the 110k+ points, you have to talk to the angels inside the Cathedral.

    Benediktus, the Luminary Angel


    And

    Lycus, Harbinger of Apostles


    After talking to them a new Quest will unlock 'The Questline to Exalted Rank'


    Dark Acolyte/Luminous Templar Questlines

    In first both Questlines both look the same, you have to complete the following quests to become Dark Acolyte/Luminous Templar:

    Dark Acolyte:
    -Quest 1: Killing Corvis the Lich
    -Quest 2: Finding the altar Shrine and putting two items at the top of the Shrine (this will be done just by clicking at the sentences).
    -Quest 3: killing 25 witches (The mobs which spawn Skeletons and giving damage reduction towards the mobs)
    -Quest 4: Killing Umbrall Mass and recover his relic (the deeper you go, the more chance you get by looting)
    -Quest 5: Consume 3 Apostle Elixirs (In Somberholt/Mausoleum)
    -Quest 6: Kill 25 bosses under influence of the Apostle Elixir.
    -Quest 7: Craft the Circlet (This item will be crafted by 2x Dragonite Bar, 2x Planarite Ingot, 2x Nomirite Ingot and 10x Apostle Elixir).
    -Quest 8: Kill Corvis the Lich with the Circlet equiped.
    -Quest 9: To be honest I've no Idea, it's an auto turn-in quest..


    Luminous Templar
    -Quest 1: Killing Corvis the Lich
    -Quest 2: Finding the altar Shrine and putting two items at the top of the Shrine (this will be done just by clicking at the sentences).
    -Quest 3: Destroy 100 urns (the deeper you go the more chance you get by finding some)
    -Quest 4: Defeat the Misshapen and collect its Balanced Blade (the deeper you go the more chance you get by finding it)
    -Quest 5: Craft 3 Templar Elixirs and Consume them (One Elixirs requires 1vial (20 balanced tokens) and 1 Light Condensed Powder)
    -Quest 6: Kill 25 Mausoleum bosses under influence of the elixir.
    -Quest 7: Craft the Sacred Halo (This item will be crafted by 2x Dragonite Bar, 2x Planarite Ingot, 2x Nomirite Ingot and 10x Templar Elixir).
    -Quest 8: Kill Corvis the Lich with the Sarced Halo equiped.
    -Quest 9: To be honest I've no Idea, it's an auto turn-in quest..

    After completing all this you became Luminous Templar and you unlocked the Craftable Voice of the Order set!


    To unlock the Voice Of the Order Set


    To make a long story short

    As first you have to reach Exalted rank, this rank exists out of 2 ranks called Luminous Templar and Dark Apostle, once you reached 110k+ points, you'll unlock both quests. After the 2nd Quest (2/9) they Give you the decision if you want to continue as a Luminous Templar or as a Dark Apostle.. You have to pick one of them BUT be careful there is NO turning back.

    Once you completed all this you'll hit the rank Luminous Templar or Dark Apostle...

    Luminous Templar gives you the opportunity to craft helmet and ring.

    Dark Acolyte gives you the opportunity to craft armor and pendant.


    Buff after reaching Luminous Templar/Dark Acolyte

    A small armor and damage buff (damage buff is hard to see because the ss isn't taken with the same weapon sadly) will be added once reaching Luminous Templar or Dark Acolyte, I'll show it in the following ss's:

    Before hitting Luminous Templar/Dark Acolyte


    After hitting Luminous Templar/Dark Acolyte


    Both ss's had the same armor, lv57 assault helmet and lv58 brutality armor

    Either you choose Light or Dark, the two sides will interact differently at Corvis shield. The yellow-orange shield will work for Luminous Templar and the purple-black shield will work for Dark Acolyte, same counts for Voriyana's yellow-orange and blue attacks.. (How this exactly works, I'm not 100% sure about it, if anyone knows how it works.. pls let me know )


    Also:


    By the spectrum uru Quest you can change yourself to the other side, like switching from Light to Dark or from Dark to Light... Also this Quest you have to accept carefully because after this one your rank will be resetted and you'll get demoted back to Elite Lightbearer..

    The Voice of the Order items are also tradeable so it's not needed to change side, most of the time it's cheaper also to just buy it in town or Auction instead of crafting it yourself


    The Rebalanced Quest

    -Quest 1: Consume 100 Dark/Templar Elixirs (In Somberholt)

    -Quest 2: Crafting a Rebalanced Amulet with these components:
    -1x Balanced Bar
    -1x Balanced Scale
    -10x Dark Condensed Powder
    -10x Light Condensed Powder
    -10x Templar Elixir
    -10x Apostle Elixir
    -250.000g crafting costs

    -Quest 3: I'm not 100% sure about this one, but I think you have to defeat Corvis the Lich with the pendant equiped

    Once you completed all this you'll be at the other side (Dark/Light side).


    Weapon Tips in Graveyard and The Mausoleum
    In the past I tried different type of weapons to find a way to get the most efficient and productive runs.
    This is what I got so far.

    Graveyard Mobs

    Mage:
    -Dusk Rifle
    -Dusk Staff
    -Balanced Gun
    -Balanced Staff
    I decided to go with high weapons because the pulls aren`t big at all, nor many mobs a run. (This also counts for rogue`s and warrior`s)

    Rogue:
    -Dusk Blades
    -Balanced Blades
    Bow`s got low damage compared to daggers, that`s why I rather go for daggers instead of bow`s

    Warrior:
    -Glint Aegis
    -Dusk Blade
    Aegis is perfect in any kind of PvE situation, very quick procs. Dusk blade because of it`s insane 30%Damage proc.


    Mausoleum Mobs
    Mausoleum is a bit harder compared to Graveyard, more mobs and bigger pulls.

    Mage:
    -Flame Forged Staff
    -Immortal Staff
    Those two staffs are able to attack multilpe targets at the same time, especially at big pulls.

    Rogue:
    -Dragon Hunter Blades
    -Dusk/ Balanced Daggers
    The Dragon hunter blades are extremely useful for big pulls, it will stun the mobs for quite a time per proc. For lower Mausoleum maps (M1-4) I prefer to use high damage weapons as a rogue like Dusk and Balanced Daggers.

    Warrior:
    -Glint Aegis
    -Immortal Blade
    -Dragon Hunter Sword
    The Glint aegis and Dragon hunter sword got both strong and very efficient procs with high damage, the immortal sword is up for freezing mobs.


    Mausoleum/Graveyard Bosses
    Now you`ve seen the best weapons for mobs, let`s see about the best weapons for bosses.

    Mage:
    -Dragon Hunter Staff
    As a mage I prefer to use the dragon hunter staff, the proc it releases just by tapping is just GREAT, it drains the boss her`s HP very quickly. The charged proc of the staff can be used to reduce the incomming damage.

    Rogue:
    -Immortal Bow
    Almost same effect as the Dragon hunter staff, just a bit less HP drain.

    Warrior:
    -Dragon Hunter Sword
    The dragon sword is able to spam many lava procs. Which can do a little bit of damage, anyway tank won`t do lots of damage at the boss so it`s not that nessaccery.


    Pets
    Since there are many questions about "Which pet should I use?" Etc etc I`ll show you my personal thought about the best pets. (This will count for Graveyard and the Mausoleum).
    I prefer the following pets:
    -Glowstik: Since there are many curse mobs in Somberholt an anti-curse pet would help, if you don`t have enough gold for glowstik. Nilbog also works great!
    -Nekro: Nekro is Always handsome, an extra shield won`t be refused or?
    -Brothers Whim: This pet is extremely efficient for quick runs and big pulls. Employ the pet once the mobs are separated in a range of 5meters away from the bothers whim. They will pull the together so it will be easier to kill them. If you can`t afford this pet, just go for Swift. Almost the same AA.
    -Slink: Especially when you run with 1 mage and 3 rogues, slink will be a great option to do not die. Slink`s AA stuns the mobs and its CD is very quick. Like a permanent stun
    -Fernis: Fernis might be the most useful pet for bosses, the AA drains slowly the boss its HP. Very useful


    Tips to kill Corvis the Lich below 20 seconds!
    I`ve seen many different tactics to kill Corvis the Lich very fastm but I think this is the most efficiënt one!
    You need the following items:
    -1 or more Dragon Staffs
    -1 or more Dark Apostle Players
    -1 10-15 Dark Bombs

    The plan goes as follow:
    Drop every 4-5 seconds a Dark Aposlte Bombs while your teammates (Mages with Dragon Staffs) Attack the boss. The stun of the Dark Bombs will avoid that Corvis the Lich spawns the Shield (Dark or Light). Which means, if he can`t spawn a shield there will be no defence nor any countdown attacks. Tho you`ll proc more often at the boss, because the Undead Construct won`t move neither takes the procs. Spam the Dragon staff and the Dark Bombs and you`ll be able to kill Corvis the Lich below 20 seconds. The more drag staffs the faster the boss dies ofcourse. Sadly this isn`t my idea, the credits of it will go to Sakurab. I saw her using it the first.

    The buffs of the Voice sets are great, 3/5 + speed set for smooth runs.

    The buff with 3/5 is:


    And 5/5:



    My conclusion about the Voice set...

    It's NOT a must it's more like some "luxe", Voice set is handsome in m5-6, but a good organised party can also handle this.

    I hope it's a bit useful and I hope I could help y'all a bit with all this... (For those who didn't know one of these things yet).

    If I forgot anything in the thread or when something isn't right, please let me know, I'll add or change it

    Looks good but its not 25 of the undead mages for dark acolyte its 25 of the witches in the blue dress and dark and light give you the same stat buffs, they just interact with corvis shield differently and can craft different set pieces.
