Guild Wars Key

Raisu Palace is a nasty timed mission. The emperor’s health constantly ticks down, and after half an hour he dies and the mission is failed. There’s no time to stand about.

The mission is composed of seven rooms. At the beginning of the mission you get to choose two additional NPCs for your party. Each of the six NPCs will make one of the first six rooms much easier. Carefully choosing those NPCs will save a lot of time and make the mission much easier. Those NPCs will leave your party once they help you with a room, but will help you fight normally until you get there.

The first room has elementalist mobs that Argo will let you skip past. He only gets past the first two mobs, however. The hard part of this room is the stairs at the end, where you have to be careful with your aggro. I would suggest against taking Argo, he doesn’t help with the hardest part of the room and if the room goes bad you can restart the mission anyway.

The second room has lots of warrior and ranger mobs attacking you from the side chambers. They spawn continuously and waste a lot of time. Talon Silverwing will close those side chambers saving you that time. This is a good room to skip. It isn’t a hard room, but the time you save makes the later rooms a lot less stressful.

The third room has two bosses, a ranger at the beginning and an elementalist at the end. Nika will let you skip the ranger boss and his mob. That isn’t very good, because that mob is the easiest one in the room and recharges your special skills for free. Be careful with the elementalist boss, his silver armor will kill players instantly. Work around the room and clear out all the mobs before fighting him.

The fourth room is several bridges, with enemies that spawn on the sides to attack you from behind. Cynn lets you skip this room entirely. However, you can run through this room without fighting the mobs anyway. If you have trouble running through the room you can take Cynn but it shouldn’t be neccessary.

The fifth room is a huge chamber with lots of mobs. It is easily the longest and hardest room in the mission. However, Danika will close off the room and let you skip it entirely! If you must fight through the room be sure to pull and break up mobs. But you should take Danika. Not only does she let you skip the fifth room, but she makes running through the fourth room easier as well. After you run over the bridges, her cutscene triggers pulling everyone through the room.

The sixth room is a side passage with lots of acid traps. Mobs wander up and down the hallway. It’s actually an easy room. Just pick off the mobs as they wander into you. Panaku will turn off the acid traps for you, but they aren’t a big deal. After passing this room a cutscene triggers and you’re taken to the last room.

Right in front of the emperor is a mob with three bosses in it. That may sound hard, but your dragon abilities make it really easy. Since each boss killed will recharge your special ability, you’ll get to use it a lot during this fight, which should let you blow the mob away! After killing all 3 bosses a cutscene starts, and you’ve completed the hardest mission in Factions.
