The Breach[]

In The Breach, players are asked to deal with a situation caused by an unprecedented event in the history of Khitai, something not seen in a hundred generations, not in all of history: There is a break in the Great Wall of Khitai !

The Hyrkanians can smell this wound in the belly of the beast from miles away, and their mouths water. Nekkhi Khan leads a war band into the great empire. Yet not all Hyrkanians agree with this self-proclaimed khan. Some say Khitai is a sleeping dragon. Some say now is not the time to wake it. When the news of a breach in the Great Wall reached the Hyrkanian settlements, it first resulted in a mass migration of Hyrkanian travelers and adventurers. Never before had there been a hole in the wall, and stories began to surface of what lay beyond: green forests, lush grasslands, rice pads as far as the eye could see, and a kind but reserved people. Most of it was just expectations, quickly adjusted as the first travelers returned.

Few made it through the breach, and even fewer came back. The ones who did told a tale of dreading wall guardians made of earth and bone, and weary sorcerers not always able to control them. As time went by, the attempts to cross the border became fewer, but still occasional war bands try to cross into the covert land, like just recently Nekhi Khan and his vicious warriors. The more peaceful Hyrkanians, following Menudsjin , see Khitai as a sleeping beast they don't want to wake. So the player will be tasked to stop and defeat Nekhi Khan before his war band brings the wrath of Khitai upon the Hyrkanians . Peace must be kept, and it will be up to the players to enter the Breach and face the dangers and evils that are literally pouring through as if the breach were an open wound in the land itself.

Details:

The Breach is a Soloable Dungeon Located in North-Eastern Gateway to Khitai(1335, 1180). The Breach provides characters with a sufficient amount of exp; combined with the Noble District Villas and the The Forgotten City , another soloable dungeon in Gateway to Khitai , they give a good amount of experience to help with the notorious gap in experience to 80. The dungeon scales with your level and requires you to be level 40-80. It's a very simple dungeon completable by lower geared characters. There are 3 bosses inside which drop Mastery Tomes and a green item. The bosses will occassionally drop a rare version of one of the greens they usually drop. *It resets every 20 hours.

Strategy:[]

The first boss will call all the nearby Hyrkranians, so you will need to clear them before engaging him.

The second boss will continually run to the middle of the room and summon a single add, make sure to pull him away from other mobs and dps him as quickly as you can.

The final boss requires you to undergo a trial before he becomes unlocked, simply defeat the first few waves while avoiding the circles on the ground casted by the boss which will do a knockback and sufficient damage. You can position yourself where the mobs you're fighting will be hit by the circle aoe while avoiding it yourself. After the boss is engaged simply do the latter and stay out of fire he will spawn on the ground.
