Overview

After thousands of years, Zawabi has found his chance to end the evil reign of Queen Lailat. Gather eleven powerful heroes and ask Zawabi to teleport you into the Circle of Eternity. While Zawabi maintains the wards that prevent his nemesis from escaping, you must confront and destroy the marilith queen!

Flagging

  • You need to finish the quest Against the Demon Queen, which has its own flagging mechanism.
  • Then return to Zawabi, located in the southeastern corner of the area, to access the raid.
  • This raid has the usual Raid timer; re-flagging is not needed until starting a new life.

Spoiler Warning: Spoiler material below this point!


Objectives

What to Expect

  • Points of no return
  • Spawning/respawning monsters

Tips and Misc

  • The portal closes during the end fight. If a party member is late, they will complete the quest, but not be able to loot any chests.
  • No fail Intimidate vs Queen Lailat:  ♦39Normal ♠55Elite ●79Epic
  • The first section of Zawabi's Revenge is a hallway with several gates, the party is required to fight 3 red-named Efreeti at each gate to proceed. At the end of the hallway is a portal, which teleports the party to an antechamber with a shrine.
  • At the beginning of the fight, Queen Lailat will teleport between platforms on the outer parts of the room. She will not return to the main platform until she has lost about 10% of her health. Ranged attacks/spells are thus mandatory here.
  • Red-named gnoll archers are stationed on the pillars of the main platform. Queen Lailat periodically teleports to the outer platforms. While she is on the outer platforms, she summons blades that cross the main platform and inflict 30–50 points of damage on Normal setting. Red-named efreeti spawn while she is off the main platform. Gnolls will respawn if killed at this time as well. The Queen can be hit with spells and ranged attacks while on the outer platform.
  • It is recommended that only those with high hit points or Armor Class, and high Balance skill attempt to melee her. Intimi-tanking is a viable tactic; if you flank her and stand on the outside of her hit box, you shouldn't get tripped by her tail attack as often.
  • At 15–20% health she goes in a "rage" mode (the DM text will read: "I am war, I am destruction...") gaining Rage, Haste, Protection from Elements and a Mantle of Invulnerability.
  • If a party member falls or is knocked off the main platform, they can get back up by taking portals positioned at roughly the 2 o'clock and 7 o'clock points at the base of the room, however these portals are blocked off on Epic difficulty (Invisibility and sneaking will allow you to avoid "aggro" while you wait out the raid on the platform). A set of shrines appear on the main platform at the end of the quest.

Epic Strategy

  • Queen Lailat has a triple cometfall ability which will knock down your healers and potentially wipe your group if you're all together. Position your healers in one area, and have the melee fight her in another. Regroup when she teleports for mass healing, and engage her again separately when she returns. She is also much easier to maintain threat on now, so having a tank with a high threat/intimidate keep her in place is advisable.

Bonus XP

  • Aggression bonus: 9 or more monsters killed +10% Bonus.( ♣−0 ♦514 ♥538 ♠562 )
  • Onslaught bonus: 17 or more monsters killed +15% Bonus.( ♣−0 ♦771 ♥807 ♠843 )
  • Conquest bonus: 26 or more monsters killed +25% Bonus.( ♣−0 ♦1,285 ♥1,345 ♠1,405 )
Notes: On a quick completion without respawns conquest is not possible (23 kills)

Loot

NPC end rewards

  • Randomly generated loot, ML correlates with effective quest level.
  • 20th completion provides a random selection of 0-4 ability (+2) or skill (+2 to +3) upgrade tomes and a random selection of stacks of Desert Sand Crystals (of varying amounts) on Heroic or Epic.
