Catica Community Member Default Black Abbot Preraid Puzzle Answers (HUGE SPOILER!!!!!) WARNING LISTED BELOW IS ALL THE ANSWERS TO THE PUZZLE IN THE PRERAID AND HOW THEY WORK IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO KNOW THIS INFORMATION DO NOT READ ANY FARTHER! I debated for a while over making this post and decided to do it. All these people not "sharing" answers cause they want to be the first to complete the raid is BS in my opinion. Myself and a dedicated group spent all of this weekend up until about 3am last night figuring out all the answers to all the questions in the preraid and how it worked. Yes it was very frustrating and we didnt really try to get anyone to give us the answers most of us wanted to figure it out for ourselfs. But I also realized with everything I went through and all the grinding for the casual player it would be quite a large undertaking, with the busy season coming up where I work and knowing Im about to be bumped up from working 40-60 hours a week to 60-80 if this mod had came out next month and If I had to figure all of that out in then I probably wouldnt have seen the new raid till after Jan. 08. On top of that we need more players in raids now. Its no longer lets see how small of a group we can do it in and beat so the more players available for the raid the better for everyone, unless once again you fall into that group where you get your ego boosts from being the first to do it with your guild before anyone else can or by soloing it or w/e. And Eventually everyone will know the answers anyway so why are we all trying to keep it so hush hush. So for all you casual players or even just the lazy ones enjoy! WARNING LISTED BELOW IS ALL THE ANSWERS TO THE PUZZLE IN THE PRERAID AND HOW THEY WORK IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO KNOW THIS INFORMATION DO NOT READ ANY FARTHER! Okay the basis of the puzzle in the preraid is to answer a set of 15 questions related to the alignment of each of the 4 bosses you fought in the pre regs. I.E. Doomsphere, Cinnis, Mentua, and The High Priest of Vol. Their Alignments are as Follows: Doomsphere: Lawful Good High Priest: Lawful Evil Mentua: Chaotic Good Cinnis: Chaotic Evil Once again the Black Dragon will ask you 15 questions they are always the same questions in the same order. The object is to answer the questions as if you were answering them as the boss you are trying to get to. For example if you were trying to get to Doomsphere you would answer the questions as if you were lawful good. The first 5 questions will have either good or evil answers with 1 answer not really falling into either catagory. The next set of 5 questions will have either lawful or Chaotic answers with 1 answer not really falling into either catagory. The next 4 questions will pertain to the whole alignment. Then the last question is where you choose which boss you are trying to get to. If you do it right then the dragon lets you pass on to that boss. Now here are the 15 questions the Black Dragon will ask with all the possible answers listed The questions might not be worded in the exact word for word style that the dragon said them in this is just how I copied them down but they are close enough: 1, Which group would you seek membership in? Silver Flame Emerald Claw Neither 2, If the black abbot gave you an offer to join his forces, what would you say? Stand by his side as he brought stormreach to its knees I would have to know the details first Never, he is a scourge on X'endrik and must be stopped 3, Cinnis seeks to destroy all things that taunt him with bare heat its not my place to judge if something has heat, it should be left as it is, and Cinnis should deal with his hate internally. let him destroys what he wants, let him suck the heat out of all living things. 4, Mentau agreed to help the black abbot, because the lich was the only one who could save his daughter from his terminal illness. In trade for saving her, the abbot demanded mentaus eternal service. Would you have agreed to that deal? I would have offered him anything but my freedom. I would have done anything to save my daughter. I would not have traded my freedom or anything else for her life. 5, Vol desperately wants the litany of the dead. If you find it, what would you do with it. Deliver it to vol and claim all the rewards she can offer. Carry it around for a while, occasionally peeking whats inside. Destroy it once and for all. 6, What are your thoughts on Mentau? He seems to be an alright guy He and his creations are abominations I think using his artificing skills to make flesh golems is ingenious. 7, If you had been buried with the high priest when the temple was desecrated, what would you have done? Sat in a corner and cried Stay faithful to the lady, knowing she would be my salvation. I would have ransacked the temple for anything i need to stay alive, and killed anyone who got in the way of what i needed. 8, Cholthulzz obeyed the conditions set out by the black abbot upon losing his duel for centuries until you exposed a loophole. What would you have done? Broken the arrangement as soon as i could strike down the black abbot. I would have immediately bartered for my freedom. The contract is binding, i would follow the conditions. 9, if the black abbot succeeds in his plans, to grasp the power of the gods, and sir rhoni n orders a full assault, would you go, knowing you would be fighting an immortal that would surely sluaghter you all. Forget that, its not my fight, i would leave and go somewhere where the abbot would never try. I would follow the orders i was given. id sit back, and hope that the first wave defeated the abbot. 10, What do you think of kai-tengs betrayal? If the black abbot offered him a better deal, i cant blame him for taking it. He was just another enemy to kill. he deserved to die, for betraying his faith and oath to vol. 11, Which title do you feel the most drawn to? The crusader The destroyer The rebel The dominator 12, How do you feel about those who stand with nuetrality? They lack the will to take and do what they want. They lack both a free spirit and a good heart. They lack intentions, plans, methods and the stomach for what must be done. They lack honour and compassion. 13, If after you died, you could be re-incarnated as any colour dragon, which would you choose? black or blue gold or silver red or white brass or bronze 14, what would you do, if you were me, and a party of adventurers, came seeking access to my master the black abbot? destroy the adventurers without pause or consideration. engage the adventurers in a battle of wits and if they win let them pass. tell the adventurers they could pass if they won the battle of wits, then destroys them all. let the adventurers pass then aid them in their assault of the black abbot. 15, which guardian do you indentify with the most High priest of vol. Mentau the Flesh maker. Cinnis the cinderspawn. Cholthulzz the doompshere. Now here are the same 15 Questions with the answers/alignment wrote in beside them.

(Chaotic Evil) A: Cinnis engage the adventurers in a battle of wits and if they win let them pass. (Lawful Good) A: DOOMSPHERE tell the adventurers they could pass if they won the battle of wits, then destroys them all. (Lawful Evil) A: Vol let the adventurers pass then aid them in their assault of the black abbot. (Lawful Good) (Chaotic Good) A: DOOMSPHERE or MENTAU.. (On this answer we used it first thinking it was the Lawful good one and it suceed for us and let us bass to Doomsphere, later we used this same answer for Mentua and it also worked for Chaotic Good and let us pass to Mentua. Overall this might be the best answer for Mentua and you could use the other answer listed above to get to Doomsphere as well) 15, which guardian do you indentify with the most High priest of vol. Mentau the Flesh maker. Cinnis the cinderspawn. Cholthulzz the doompshere. Question #15 you answer based on the answers you provied in #1-14. If you picked all the answers with Doomsphere beside them, then for question 15 you would answer Cholthulzz the doompshere. If in 1-14 you answered all the questions with Vol's name beside the answer then in 15 you would choose High priest of vol etc etc... Good Luck and Have Fun everyone!!!
