THE TOMB FULL GUIDE

ICE STAFF QUEST:

  1. Get the monocle from killing a mimic.
  2. You can get the shaft and head by inputting Roman numerals in the order of the constellations on the bull mural near Death Perception (1-8) and the hunter/tree painting near the crafting table in the Neolithic Catacombs (1-10). You will have to visit the nexus first to get the constellations to activate. To get Roman numerals to show for the staff just run around the map shooting the purple fire lanterns and cycling their spawn until you get it in the location over the area.
  3. Do the final lockdown in the nexus by interacting with the stone ritual site.

ICE STAFF UPGRADE

1) Freeze 3 aether lanterns in 10 seconds to get the floating rocks to spawn for the ice staff upgrade. One lantern spawns per area for example on in Death Perception room, one in Stamin Up room, on in Quick Revive room etc.

2)Find symbols in dark aether on rocks in the sky, and shoot on the rock and memorize them.

3) Leave nexus via any of the doors and find a door that has been sealed shut in the real world. Then shoot the corresponding symbols that you memorised on the door.

4) When you do this successfully, you will spawn on an elevated rock with a purple wisp.

5) Interact with the Orb before jumping off the Rock. follow the purple wisp and kill things to keep it charged. If you fail, complete the step with the Door again in order to get back on top of the Rock , so you can interact with the purple orb again. If you stop killing, it will die and won’t respawn until next round. It will also fail if anyone leaves the 30 meter range of the orb.

6) Once you go all the way around, it’ll go into the big circle where you craft the staff. The Ice Staff will be upgraded.

Main Easter Egg:

  1. Reach Nexus and go to the bridge for the sentinel artifact to trigger Archibald's audio queue.
  2. Acquire Ice Staff and Upgrade it.
  3. Shoot statue with crystal in dark aether room with ‘revive’ version of ice staff (spawns at vermin statue first believe), then interact with glowing crystal.
  4. The crystal will then move to the same statue but in the real world, the crystal color corresponds with gateway you will need to take to the area of the RW statue. interact with it and a short lockdown will occur, after which you must take the purple orb back to its corresponding statue in the nexus.

THIS IS HOW YOU COMPLETE EACH STATUE:

VERMIN  - Kill all Vermin that spawn.

PARASITE - Drops orbs from purple parasites where you will walk over to pick up and deposit into the statue (a lot like beamsmasher step on terminus)

DOPPELGHAST - Just kill all doppelghasts that spawn.

AMALGAM - Kill Zombies with energy lines connecting to the amalgam, after killing these zombies you can eliminate the amalgam.

  1. To access boss fight you must cross the bridge you found when initially starting the quest.
  2. Fight the Sentinel Lamp

BOSS FIGHT

The sentinel artifact starts by rotating in the middle of the arena. Wait until it turns purple and shoot it until it breaks and duplicates This is a strict DPS check, bring T3 Legendary weapons or you will fail the fight. Repeat this 4 times to continue to the next phase.

  1. After you break the 4th artifact each phase will include a buffed enemy with a red artifact on their head. Kill the enemy and break the dropped artifact. This will duplicate the artifact and the subsequent phase will include a more difficult enemy. Repeat this 4 times until you kill the amalgam and break its dropped artifact. This will activate the final phase.
  2. The sentinel artifacts will congregate in the middle and shoot a converging beam. Once the beams reach the final artifact you will have to shoot it until the boss health bar reaches 0 or you will get wiped.
