The Sewers of Nihilia - Pool of Sludge (GoD Progression)
This is the second to last task that takes place in Sewers of Nihilia Gates of Discord Progression chain given to you by High Priest Diru Riwirn. Before we get into the specifics of this task, let's talk about some of the universal things all of the Sewers of Nihilia tasks share in common.
First up, all of the enemies throughout this task respawn and hit for about a max of 1k each if you're during the GoD expansion pack. As far as the named enemies go, after you defeat 9 - 12 of each type, that type's named will have a chance to spawn in any of the placeholder positions after that. To be more clear, defeat 9 - 12 turtles then you'll be able to get the turtle named to spawn.
Now, as far as this specific task goes; there are four steps that you need to complete for this task. They're listed as follows for a quick read for those who don't need the strategy.
Objectives for Pool of Sludge:
1. Speak with Utandi (Hail; What problem?; I'll help you find it)
2. Defeat Slime Cube
3. Defeat Slime Fragments Cubes & Collect All 4 Fragments of Utandi's Map
4. Turn in map Fragments to Utandi
Note: Only the person who accepts the quest will be able to speak to Utandi in my experience. Also, unless you speak with Utandi you'll only get a 'Temporary Character Flag' when you complete this task.
As for the first part of this task, you'll want to find Utandi who is just northeast from where you zone in. Speak with him and follow through with his dialogue...((Hail; What problem?; I'll help you find it.)). This will trigger the Slime Cube to spawn in the western most portion of the zone... This is our next stop.
While the Slime Cube looks like a boss and is even ontop of a large pedastle like a boss - he's just barely harder than the regular enemies throughout the zone. Once you defeat the Slime Cube he will fragment into Slime Cube Fragments. These spawn upon its death and you'll be able to watch them wander through the zone and each to their own positions.
Note: Once you defeat the Slime Cube a timer starts, you'll have a total of 60 minutes to complete the task from this point. Take you AFK breaks and such before you proceed past this point!!
You won't be able to attack these Slime Cube Fragments until they reach their destination - each location that one of these fragments stops at can be seen on my map locations above. Each Slime Cube Fragment has a moderately high chance of dropping a Fragment of Utandi's Map. You need to collect all four map fragments and turn them into Utandi whom we spoke to at the start of this task.
That's all that's required for this task, once you do that you'll receive your character flag and be ready for the next task. If you aren't the person who does the map fragment turn ins - make sure you hail Utandi too otherwise you may miss your flag!!
