Overview
In this guide I will help you how to complete the different Chaos Dungeon maps but first I will teach you the different terms, strategies and requirements to be able to complete the CDH stage.
Chaos Dungeon Hard : TERMS and REQUIREMENTS
Before I start there are made-up words or terms that I will use all throughout this guide. You need to know and learn them to able to understand the information I’m writing down to help you in completing the Chaos Dungeon Hard.
>CDH – To give you a shorter word for Chaos Dungeon Hard I’d rather say the acronym CDH. This term has been used since the original server which is RIS (Rakion International Server) but I am not sure with RLS (Rakion Latino Server). Other than CDH you can also call Chaos Dungeon Normal as CDN since they are the most common Chaos Dungeon level mode.
>CD – CD is the shortcut word for Cell Destruction. This is part of your character’s stats which deals high damage against enemy cells and required in your CDH runs.
>Mage Carry – Out of all classes why Mage? Well Mage deals higher CD compared to others and has AoE (Area of Effect/Crowd Attacks) damage. The Ice Pillar attack of the Mage can stack damage up to 27x hits or more! As you go deeper in this guide you will know more about the Ice pillar attack stack.
>HP, AP and Chaos Potions – HP means (Health Potion/Max Energy/Red Bar), AP (Armor Potion/Max Armor/Blue Bar). Chaos (Stronger character transformation-timed) the Chaos will not last longer so you have to take note of the chaos time bar.
CHAOS BAR
Tanker – The tanker must have heavy armor and good at spamming HP and AP potions. This player lures the enemy crowd and have them stay in one place, with the tanker in the middle to take all of their damages. This strategy makes it easier for the Mage carry to clear out enemies and no enemy will chase and disturb the Mage, any character can become a tanker.
>Cells – Cells are the enemies you encounter in stages and the creatures that you summon.
> Chaos Cells – Chaos Cells are cells that have blue aura which means when you kill that enemy you will gain chaos points. As much as possible reserve some Chaos Cells for your Mage carry.
>Loot – Every boss or attribute cells drop loots. These loots looked like treasure boxes and either contains EX-ITEMS or MATERIALS it depends on how lucky you are.
Chaos Dungeon Hard varies in maps and each area needs a lot of teamwork to complete the stage. And you need to be fully equipped to be able to defeat the enemies in these maps. Here are the basic requirements to be able to fully play in CDH (Chaos Dungeon Hard).
REQUIREMENTS :
> Mage Carry – You need one or more Mage character to help you carry your CDH (Chaos Dungeon Hard) runs. The Mage carry must have high CD (Cell Destruction) and loads of chaos potions preferably Max Chaos Potion must wear Stage gems and loads of HP and AP potions.
> Other Carries – If you don’t want to use a Mage you can bring other characters to be the carry. Your character must wear Mage Chaos Rings (3 pieces is required) and must have PvE build-up such as high CD (Cell Destruction), Stage Gems and loads of potions. However there are disadvantages in using a different carry other than the Mage, changing for a weaker ring (Mage Chaos Rings and others) than your usual ring may affect your stats.
– You need 3 pieces of Mage Chaos Rings to be able to fully chaos as a Mage.
> HP, AP and Chaos Potion – To survive in Chaos Dungeon’s you need to carry loads of HP (red bar), AP (armor/blue bar) and Chaos Potions. I recommend stacking your potions with an amount of 500-1000 EA.
Use the high level HP and AP (the expensive one).
> Stage Gems – Any character can use these gems and if you want to be a Mage carry you are required to wear them. These gems are needed to be able to defeat the enemies.
For me I prefer to use [Stage] Unbeatable, [Stage] Defense and [Stage] Recovery. It is up to you what gems to put but always remember which one are the important ones for your CDH runs. The higher the gem rank the better the results.
> Chaos Points Reduction Items – The Max Chaos potion is kind off expensive but if you want to go for something cheaper there are items that you need to have 2-3 chaos box instead of 6 or 5. Here are the items that has -1 Chaos Point :
PU Card, Insane Necklace (-0.5 half of one box), Zodiac Sub-Weapon [Develop], Any Main Weapon with -1 Chaos Point, Eternity Necklace/Himmel Necklace/COPA Necklace
I have included some items that are not yet in the game but this is to give you an idea that these other necklaces gives -1 Chaos Point.
Use Max Chaos Potion if you don’t have these -1 Chaos Point items.
Use Chaos Potion (1 box) if you have these -1 Chaos Point items.
> Attribute Stones – Although this item is not yet released in the Rakion Steam Server this item is essential for Chaos Dungeons and Himmel Stages. Wearing Attribute Stones increases you armor and damage towards your enemies but it does not mean there is no more need to put Cell Destruction. Even with Attribute Stone it will not be enough to clear the enemies fast.
There are five attribute stone elements but currently there are three :
Strongest : Wind
Weakness : Water
Strongest : Fire
Weakness : Wind
Strongest : Water
Weakness : Fire
These three elements are equal and there is no strongest or better attribute stone element. You have to take note the weakness and the strengths of each element to know which stone to use on your enemy.
Chaos Dungeon Maps: Caloff Iron Mine
CALOFF IRON MINE
In this map you have to be careful which enemies you kill. This place is tricky and you can make many mistakes repeatedly no matter how many times you have completed this map. I will call the different areas of the Caloff Iron Mine as ‘Layers’. There are five layers in this map and you have five minutes to accomplish this stage.
MAP RULES and TIPS
> Time/Speed Run – the time is very limited you only have 5 minutes to climb 5 layers. Try your best not to create any mistakes to avoid wasting time.
> Gravity Doors – Every time you finish a layer a textbox will appear in the bottom-middle of your screen stating that the door has opened. You need to find a white-round shaped marking to climb to the next layer. Whenever the textbox appears immediately climb to the next layer to avoid getting trapped and left behind. Be precise when climbing the gravity to avoid slipping off if ever there is a White IceWind left behind use your Shield (Shift) while climbing being ice hit by the White IceWind will slow you down and you won’t be able to reach to door. Being hit by an IceWind with your shield on will boost you up making your gravity travelling faster.
> White Cells – this is the tricky part in this map. When you kill these enemies it will summon more enemies slowing you down from completing the layer. Always be careful who you kill to prevent more enemies being summoned.
> Chaos Cells – In order to complete each map layers you need to kill the Black cells with Chaos Aura (a blue glow from each creature). You must kill all of these creatures with this aura to proceed to the next layer.
> In-game Bugs – If ever you encountered a bug or one player is having door bugs this player must suicide. Kill any white cells and let them completely kill you. Don’t worry you can still get EXP and GOLD once the rest of your team mates finish the stage.
> Share LOOT – Don’t be greedy! Share the LOOT the boss drops treasure chests which is the loot. You should make an agreement between your team mates who’s turn to get the loot. If that player dies in the middle of the stage run make an agreement with the third player. Try your best not to die so you can get your loot.
FIRST LAYER : STARTING AREA
The First layer is easy but you have to be careful with the White Panzer since it sticks with the Black Cells. The Mage carry can climb on top of the rocks where the Black IceWinds are summoned to avoid attractions from the Black Panzer’s. The Mage should kill all of the Black IceWinds while the rest of your team mate clears off the Black Panzer’s.
BLACK CELLS – these are the enemies that you should ONLY kill
WHITE CELLS – these are the enemies that you should NEVER kill
FOR THE MAGE CARRY
Once the stage has started run immediately to these rocks make sure that the rock is beside the gravity door. Climb on top on these rocks and kill all of the Black IceWind’s and take note not to kill the White IceWind. Once you are finished with your task you can help your team mates but use stick instead of your mace to avoid crowd-control bombs against the White Panzer.
TEAM MATES
While their carry kills all the Black IceWind’s his team mates must kill all the Black Panzer’s and never kill the White Panzer. If you want to make it easier one player will lure the White Panzer and make it leave from the group of Black Panzer’s. Once you have finished off all of the Black Cells climb immediately to the second layer a textbox will appear at the middle-bottom of the screen make it as your guide in knowing that you have finished the layer.
SECOND LAYER : LAVA BRIDGE
The Second layer is one of the most annoying parts because of the Black Dragon’s attacks will make you very lag. The most common Caloff Iron Mine mistake happens at the Second layer because of the White Dragon sticking with the Black Dragon’s and may be affected by the bomb hits of the Mage carry.
BLACK CELLS – these are the enemies that you should ONLY kill
WHITE CELLS – these are the enemies that you should NEVER kill
FOR THE MAGE CARRY
Go up the cliffs going towards the bridge but do not pass the bridge stay at the corner of the bridge to lure the Black Dragon’s towards you. Take note that in the middle of the bridge is a Musketeer don’t kill it since it belongs to the White Cells list that should NEVER be killed. Stay there and kill all of the Black Dragon’s be extra careful of the White Dragon that might join the group of Black Dragon’s and will be affected by your AOE(Crowd Attack/Area of Effect) bomb.
TEAM MATES
The team mates has the option to kill the Samurai’s at the bottom of the bridge, or one team mate will help the Mage carry in killing the Black Dragon’s. They also have the option to lure the White Dragon away from the Black Dragon’s. After killing all of the enemies climb right away to the gravity door don’t get left behind! There are times the White Dragon might block the door!
THIRD LAYER : MIDDLE LAYER
The third layer is simple and easy but it will be easy if you are careful with killing the White Cells. In this area it is common to slip off from the gravity door because of the White IceWind.
BLACK CELLS – these are the enemies that you should ONLY kill
WHITE CELLS – these are the enemies that you should NEVER kill
FOURTH LAYER : BULL’S RAMPAGE
The fourth layer is a bit annoying because your enemies will run around and it will be hard to damage them. However this layer is easy to distinguish the White Cell you will be able to finish this area in no time!
BLACK CELLS – this is the enemy that you should ONLY kill
WHITE CELLS – this is the enemy that you should NEVER kill
Chaos Dungeon Maps : Caloff Iron Mine BOSS AREA
FIFTH LAYER : THE LAST LAYER (BOSS)
The fifth layer is messy and many enemies will appear. In the fifth layer it does not matter anymore who you kill don’t mind if you killed a White Cell the important enemy here is the Diablo.
MAIN ENEMY : THE BOSS
FOR THE MAGE CARRY
In the RED ARROW it is where the Diablo will appear and YELLOW ARROWS and the curved line points towards the boxes. Lure the Diablo behind the box and as much as possible try not to be exposed from the enemies outside the box. This is to avoid enemies crowding around you their attacks will disturb you from killing the Diablo. There are two ways to kill a Diablo either use the right bomb of the Mage chaos or drive the boss to the edge and do ice stack attacks. Every time the Diablo attacks immediately do the Invisible attack the Diablo’s attacks are strong and can wipeout your HP and AP. Be on high alert of its attacks and when there are enemies crowding you use the right bomb of the Mage chaos.
TEAM MATES
The team mates has a choice to hide and wait for the Mage carry to kill the boss or help kill it. They can also lure the enemies away from the Mage carry but you might die. If it is a team mate’s turn to get the LOOT that player must be situated near the Mage carry to be ready in getting the loot.
Why?
After killing the Diablo you only have a few seconds before it will be declared ‘STAGE FINISHED/COMPLETED’. As a team mate you have the responsibility to stay alive and get your loot right away.
Chaos Dungeon Maps: Underground
UNDERGROUND
The Underground Map is easy. It is easy but also needs a lot of time management to secure an S rank. The map is divided by the platform and enemies will appear in two sides while some appears above. I will describe each appearance of enemies as SETS.
MAP RULES and TIPS
>Time/Speed Run – This map is time consuming and you only have 5 minutes to complete different enemy waves. You need to know where the next enemy will be positioned.
>The Dragon Tapestry/Banner – Take note of this symbol situated at a wall. The enemies appears first in that side and the TWO DIABLO BOSS in the last part.
>Deaths – This is one of the major rules that you should know in this map. If one team mate dies it will be an instant lose in your CDH run. Try your best not to die in this map to avoid making your Mage carry waste his/her Chaos potion and your Stage Tickets.
>Share LOOT – Since there will be TWO DIABLO’s each BOSS will drop one LOOT share it with your team mates and always take turns of who will receive the boxes.
FIRST and SECOND SET
In the first set you have to stay on top of the platform to avoid the taurus from running around. Just like Caloff Iron Mine you should NOT waste time and you have to move fast. This set takes a lot of time to finish it depends on how much mistake you make.
FIRST and SECOND SET ENEMIES
This set appears first at the side of the Dragon Banner. If you want a smooth and problem free stage run you can stay on top of the platform and use range weapons. As much as possible avoid letting these Black Taurus from falling to the lava it will waste more time.
Now, this is where a TANKER can be used. One team mate can go down and stand in the middle of the area where the enemies will appear while the Mage carry will bomb them off. It is up to the team mates to decide if they are willing to tank off the Taurus.
For the SECOND SET go immediately to the opposite side of the Dragon Banner both sets have the same enemies and the same technique.
THIRD SET
This set is pretty annoying you can go down from the platform and hide behind pillars and walls. Use range weapon when attacking these enemies since they stay above the ledge.
THIRD SET ENEMIES
This is where the enemies are situated:
FOURTH and FIFTH SET
Just like the first and second, this set appears at both sides but first it is situated at the Dragon Banner’s side then you proceed to the opposite of the banner after finishing the first side.
FOURTH SET ENEMIES
FIFTH SET ENEMIES
The fourth set is situated at the Dragon Banner and the fifth set appears at the opposite side of the map. Every time both types of AngelKnight attacks it becomes invisible so always wait for their attacks to finish before damaging them.
Here is a trick for Mage carry. Use the left mouse button of your range weapon.
The Mage carry must position itself near at the platform’s ramp. Then throw your bomb towards the ramp beneath you this makes the bomb bounce to your back giving AoE to your enemies. AngelKnights mostly use their close range attacks so it is expected that they will climb the ramp to reach their enemy. Repeat this trick at the opposite side. The team mates can throw range attacks towards the IceWind’s.
SIXTH SET
The sixth set is the same as the third set. Enemies will appear above at the ledges and you have to use your range weapons.
SIXTH SET ENEMY
SEVENTH SET
This is the final set and the time the TWO DIABLO’s will appear. These enemies will appear at the side where the Dragon Banner is placed.
SEVENTH SET ENEMIES
BOSS
The diablo’s can unleash powerful poison attacks that can wipeout your life in mere seconds. If you want to play it safe let your team mates hide and move away from the side of the Dragon Banner and let the Mage carry handle it. The Mage carry should inform his/her team mates that the Diablo is almost dead and they have to be ready to get the loot. If you want to just attack straight in you can do that but it is risky.
Chaos Dungeon Maps: Sacrifice of Zadro
SACRIFICE OF ZADRO
Other than Underground this map is easy as well. It is the easiest among all CDH maps but teamwork is also needed to complete this map. The enemies in this map appears at the same time
