'''Faceworm's Nest''' is a challenging instance where players delve into an underground nest to battle the '''Faceworm Queen'''. The instance features complex boss mechanics including element-changing phases, egg destruction, and coordination with NPC allies. It's known for dropping the coveted '''Temporal Boots'''.

== Overview ==

Deep beneath the surface, a massive faceworm queen has built her nest. Magic scholars have discovered a dimensional crack leading to this nest and seek adventurers brave enough to exterminate the threat. The Faceworm Queen is highly intelligent and can change her elemental attribute during battle.

The instance also features several side quests involving lost items that belonged to people who fell victim to the faceworms.

== How to Access ==

# Travel to '''Dimensional Crack''' (dali).
# Find the '''Magic Scholar''' at coordinates (80, 60).
# As party leader, select "Reserve Faceworm's Nest."
# Enter once the instance is created.

----

== Instance Walkthrough ==

=== Phase 1: Nest Entrance ===

# Enter the nest and meet '''Chaos''' and '''Iris''', NPC allies.
# They provide guidance throughout the instance.
# Clear initial faceworm monsters to progress.

=== Phase 2: Egg Destruction ===

# Navigate through the nest destroying '''Faceworm Eggs'''.
# Unbroken eggs can heal the Faceworm Queen during the boss fight.
# Clear all eggs in each section before moving forward.

=== Phase 3: Mini-Boss Encounters ===

# Face several Faceworm variants as you progress:
#* {{Monster|2528|Faceworm}}
#* {{Monster|2529|Faceworm}} (different variant)
# Clear the path to the Queen's chamber.

=== Phase 4: Faceworm Queen ===

The '''Faceworm Queen''' (ID: 2532) is a complex boss with multiple mechanics:

==== Element Changing ====

The Queen can shed her skin to change elemental attributes:

{{Quote|Faceworm Queen is trying to shed its skin to [element] attribute.|System}}

Possible elements:
* Fire
* Water
* Earth
* Wind

Adjust your attacks accordingly!

==== Poison Sacks ====

The Queen drops poison sacks that heal her if not destroyed:

{{Quote|The Faceworm Queen has dropped a sack of fatal poison and recovers [X] amount of energy.|System}}

==== Egg Absorption ====

Any unbroken eggs in the arena will heal the Queen:

{{Quote|The Faceworm Queen absorbs the energy of [X] unbroken eggs and recovers [Y] amount of energy.|System}}

==== Chaos Support ====

'''Chaos''' will call out directions to lure the Queen:

{{Quote|Hey! Lure it to the north! I will beat it!|Chaos}}

Luring the Queen to Chaos's position deals significant damage to her.

==== Rage Mode ====

If the Queen is too far from her nest:

{{Quote|It is too far away from the nest. The Faceworm Queen begins raging.|System}}

Keep the fight in the designated area!

=== Completion ===

After defeating the Faceworm Queen:
# Treasure chests appear with rewards.
# Collect loot including Temporal Boots materials.
# Exit through the portal.
