Quest Overview

Access to the floating Mhoire Castle has finally been achieved. Secure the wards of three guardians in Graveyard before entering the castle to complete several trials, after which you are able to enter the Great Hall and confront the Shade of Lord Rytheran. There are also a few miniquests inside the castle. Rewards include Ancient Mhoire Coins, substantial xp, and multiple pulls on a tier 8 loot chest.

Walk Through

Graveyard (Castle Flagging)

Important: This step must be accomplished by everyone in your party individually.

  1. Use the Ancient Stones at 66.4S 44.7W to get the Strange Jewel and a lore item.
    • The lore item can be translated by Kuyiza in Zaikhal (optional).
    • The Ancient Stones are located in the "Burning Woods" area of the Graveyard. They are nearby the bunker in that area.
  2. The Strange Jewel must be used in 3 locations in the Graveyard to spawn bosses that must be killed in order to collect 3 candle items.
    • Each boss spawns along with some accompanying minions. The minions respawn very quickly, so it is best to focus on attacking the boss.
    • Each boss drops 3 candle items. Each person flagging needs one of each of the candles. So if you have more than 3 people flagging, you will need to kill more than once.
    • There is no indication of where you should use the Strange Jewel. You can use it repeatedly until you find the correct spot.
    • It is easier and recommended to do the flagging during the daytime.
  3. Use Strange Jewel near the southwest edge of the Graveyard at 66.6S 45.2W to spawn Lord Hendrel.
    • The location is on the very edge of the "Burning Woods" area of the Graveyard.
    • Lord Hendrel is similar to a Wight Blade Sorcerer and spawns with several Wights.
  4. Use Strange Jewel near the southwest bunker of the five bunkers near the GY Colo building at 65.0S 44.2W to spawn Lady Saliane inside the bunker.
  5. Use Strange Jewel on the far edge of the Graveyard at 65.1S 45.5W to spawn Lord Trimere.
  6. One by one, each person should hand all three items to the left (west) gargoyle statue at 64.6S 44.1W in order (Saliane, Hendrel, and then Trimere).
    • The gargoyle to the right (east) is the one used for GY Colo and will not accept the items.
  7. A blue portal will briefly open behind the statue. If you've handed all three items in, enter the portal to continue.
    Note: This is a permanent flag, anytime in the future you can use the statue to reopen the portal.
    Tip: Handing in the candles can be repeated each day for xp and a graveyard coin, if desired.
  8. The portal will drop you in the ruins of Mhoire Castle up on the hill. There are various portals around the ruins which go to the different towers of the castle. For first timers, the only portal which works is the northeast tower portal.
    The Defender's Mark of House Mhoire burns with blue flame and you are transported to the Northeast Tower of Mhoire Castle.
    Lore Note: From the Gaining Ground event until Retributions, the portal transported you to the Mhoire Castle courtyard which floated in the sky. However, as part of the Retributions event, the courtyard fell and was destroyed on the hills below.

Northeast Tower (First Timers Only)

The entire castle is connected by hallways (see map), and the first time you run the quest, you must start in the northeast tower. Once you've completed the quest the first, you can use the individual portals around the castle to access each tower trial quickly. This guide breaks down each trial individually (by tower), and you can complete each of them in any order you choose.

  • Tip: If you plan on using a flame protection rare, it is recommended to complete the Southeast and Southwest trials together, so you can benefit from the rare in both trials.
  1. Speak to the Shade of Antemy to begin the quest. He assigns you three trials to complete, one in each of the remaining three towers.
  2. [OPTIONAL] Speak to the Shade of Fordroth and the Shade of Ormend to flag for two additional kill tasks.
    Note: These kill tasks can be repeated every 20 hours for a coin and XP.

Southeast Tower - Flames of Courage

  1. From the Northeast tower drop, stick left until you reach a large room; take the SE corner door then stick left into through to another large room; take the NW door then stick left to the first test.
  2. Talk to the Guardian of Mhoire statue in the middle of the room to receive a Mhoire Sword of Courage.
    Note: The room filled with Flame Guardians and high damage Flaming Skulls. If you get hit by one, heal immediately as a 2nd hit will likely kill you.
    Tip 1: Watch the patterns and you can avoid most Flaming Skulls.
    Tip 2: If you use an Inferno's Jewel (flame protection rare), the Flaming Skulls will not harm you at all.
  3. Once you've received the sword, kill 10 Flame Guardians and loot a Crystallized Blue Flame from each of their corpses.
    Note: The corpses (indicated by a yellow dot on the map) only last 1 to 3 seconds, so you must loot after each kill.
  4. Once you've collected 10 flames, speak to the Guardian of Mhoire Statue to complete the trial:
    Defender, you have succeeded in the Test of the Southeast Tower.
    You have been granted the title Knight of the Southeast Tower!

Northwest Tower - Rite of Wisdom

  1. From the northeast tower drop, stick left to a large room and take the NW door then stick left through to another large room; take the SE door and stick left to the next test.
  2. For this test you will be harassed by several Guardian Statues that respawn as fast as you can kill them. They spam war magic, so you will need to be quick or have someone else heal you while you solve the puzzle.
  3. Talk to the Guardian of Mhoire statue in the middle of the room to receive a block of green text similar to the following (Each clue is different):
    DJZZKKE FBKV PTJ EKZCABKN MTNK
    KLZB OJLNE CV TNEKN CD PTJN ZBTNK
    XBK WCNDX XTJZB FCVED FBKNK WLMZTVD DTLN - Air (West)
    XBK VKUX BKLN ZNLDBCVO FLHKD TV DBTNK - Water (South)
    XBK XBCNE DKKQ ELIZCVO WMLIKD XBLX NTLN - Fire (North)
    XBK MLDX WCVE DXNTVOKDX ITJVXLCV ZTNK - Earth (East)
    RLVCDBIKVX WTN L ZBTCZK ITDX ATTN
    DJZZKDD LVE XBKV C ILNQ XBK ETTN
  4. Use each of the four stationary statues located around the room that correspond with the clues above.
    Important: You must use the statues in the order that you read them in your clue. If you use the statues out of order (you will be portaled to the start), or run out of time, simply talk to the statue again and you will be given a new order and the task starts over.
    Tip: After receiving your clue, run to the side hallway so you can safely identify the order of the statues you need to use.
  5. If you use all 4 statues in the correct order, you will receive a message stating that you have completed the task, and awarded the title:
    Defender, you have succeeded in the Test of the Northwest Tower.
    You have been granted the title Knight of the Northwest Tower!

Southwest Tower - Flames of Virtue

  1. From the drop of the northeast tower, stick left to a large room and take the NW door. From here, stick left to another large room; use the SW door then stick left to another large room. Finally, take the NE door and stick left to find the third test.
  2. You will enter a room with high damage Flaming Skulls (similar to the Souteast tower). These skulls can one or two hit you, so be careful to avoid them!
    • Tip: If you use an Inferno's Jewel (flame protection rare), you can avoid taking damage from the skulls.
  3. Talk to the Guardian of Mhoire statue in the middle of the room to receive a Mhoire Sword of Virtue, and a green message dictating which flame to drop it in.
    • Note: The map (see right) shows the names and locations of the flames.
  4. Drop the sword into the flame that corresponds with the message you received. If you're correct, you'll receive yet another message, indicating where to drop the sword next.
    • Note: It is possible to receive the same statue twice in a row.
  5. Once you've dropped the sword into a number of correct flames, you will receive a message telling you to bring the sword back to the Guardian of Mhoire statue.
    • Note: If you hand the sword to the wrong statue, simply speak with the Guardian of Mhoire again to get a new sword and start again.
  6. Return the sword to the Guardian of Mhoire, and if you've done the test correctly, you will receive a message indicating you have passed the test:
    Defender, you have succeeded in the Test of the Southwest Tower.
    You have been granted the title Knight of the Southwest Tower!

Great Hall - Cleansing the Throne

Important: If you die while fighting the Shade of Lord Rytheran, you will not be able to respawn him on your own. If you speak to the Shade of Antemy, he will tell you that you must abandon the quest and try again in two weeks, or else go with someone else to spawn him. At this point, your best bet is to get someone else to spawn the boss, and simply loot Rytheran's Jeweled Ring when you've killed him.

  1. Talk to the Shade of Antemy at the northeast tower drop to flag for the Mhoire Castle Great Hall Portal (across the room from him).
  2. Enter the Mhoire Castle Great Hall Portal and you'll be in a series of rooms with various doors. Take the following:
    1. South double door
    2. NE double door
    3. East then North corner
    4. NW double door
    5. NW double door
    6. North then West corner (killable doors)
    7. SW double door
    8. Head south through the double door (killable doors), and enter the Mhoire Throne Room
  3. Use the Ancient Throne to spawn the Shade of Lord Rytheran and a horde of his Wights.
  4. Each person in your group must loot a Rytheran's Jeweled Ring (drops 9) from his corpse.
    • Note: For ranged characters this is solo-able, use the Throne and hop onto a pillar.
    • Tip: The Shade of Lord Rytheran (Undead, weak to fire/acid/pierceSB) will spawn along with numerous GY creatures. The various GY creatures will respawn reather quickly in the spot they are killed. Make use of doors in the vicinity as you see appropriate.
  5. Head back to the Northeast tower and speak to the Shade of Antemy to receive your rewards and title:
    Shade of Antemy tells you, "In life I was the Seneschal of House Mhoire. In ancient times I walked these halls and served Lord Cynreft Mhoire."
    You hand over 10 of your Rytheran's Jeweled Rings.
    Shade of Antemy tells you, "Well done, champion and defender of House Mhoire. You have cleansed the throne of House Mhoire, and countless spirits within these halls rest peacefully."
    Shade of Antemy tells you, "You have proven yourself a hundred fold, and I am in your debt. The corruption will remain clear of the throne for some time. Take these items as thanks."
    You have been awarded the title Champion of House Mhoire!
    You've earned 1,695,225,700 experience.
    You've earned 15,000 Luminance.
    Shade of Antemy gives you 2 Ancient Mhoire Coins.
    Shade of Antemy gives you Legendary Key.
  6. The legendary chests are located with the Sealed Treasury Vaults beyond the Mhoire Throne Room. So you must go back to the Great Hall and beyond the throne to use the keys. Also note that the legendary chests are in separate rooms for each type of chest (Armor, Weapon, Magic).

Notes

  • During the Balance of Power event a 2 use Legendary Key was added that replaces the 5 Use Mhoire Castle Treasury Key. (The Mhoire Castle Treasury Keys still drop on Mhoire and in dungeon loot), The Sealed Treasury Vaults moved one room over and the three former vault rooms now house 8 Legendary Chests (Armor right path, Magic middle path, Weapons left path, see map for locations).
  • During the The Risen Princess event each Mhoire Castle tower (NW, SW, SE) now has it's respective gargoyle generate a portal back to the Northeast tower.
  • Similar to how ghosts used to not always drop bodies, the same issue seems to be true for the Flame Guardians, when they are winding up to cast and are killed there's no corpse.
  • The ring has a 2 week timer on pickup, but you must complete the three tower trials again before the Shade of Antemy will reward you for repeat runs. That is you can pick up the ring, but if you have not completed the three trials and used the throne, you will not be rewarded by Antemy (you can do the trials and use the throne after picking up the ring if you forget).
  • After you initially complete the trials and loot Rytheran's Jeweled Ring you can turn it in, wait out the quest timer, and loot the ring again without completing the trials. One member of your group with need to have dialogued with the NPC, completed the trials, and activated the throne. Others in the group must be careful not to start dialog with Shade of Antemy as you will be required to complete the trials again. If you already have looted a ring from that process, speak to (click) Shade of Antemy, then try to hand in ring for reward, she will not accept it.
  • Be careful not to loot more than one Rytheran's Jeweled Ring and then turn in. Shade of Antemy will take all rings from you inventory and reward you just for one.
  • If you use the Ancient Throne but fail to kill Lord Rytheran you can run back (slow respawn), but you cannot activate the Throne to spawn him again. You must either get another character to spawn Lord Rytheran by using the Throne or talk to the Shade of Antemy to reset your quest entirely.
  • When repeating the candles, you must use the Ancient Stones again, if you haven't, you will get the following message when you try to hand a candle in (you can use after getting the candles if you forget):
You allow Guardian Statue to examine your Lady Saliane's Brand.
You hold the brand expectantly up to the statue, but nothing happens.
You suspect that the magic only works for those who start at the beginning.
