Availability: 30 minute repop.
Located in Catacombs of Shame below Templeton, requires 2-3 average 180's and one Archon or Hero to help reach it.
Preparation
Check your mems, reagents, some method of "dispel area" and be sure to get a spade, once ready follow the Seriende guide and complete the queens in order to the south point (the death queen). You do not need to reach her, merely teleport to her zone, once teleported head east to first south, then 2 south, and 1 east, dig here, go down and dig again. From here on your Archon or Hero can no longer help, the east room is a third class restricted area, down a few rooms and west is A Desiccated Zombie.
A Desiccated Zombie encounter
The room is darkened at repop, so you will need to dispel it each repop. This room is CPK.
The mob can paralyze, but other than that is quite easy; heal the tank when he gets too low. A few calm herbs are useful in case the tank gets para'd and low. Two well-rounded 180s will be sufficient for this run; a 3rd will make it easy.
In addition to the above mentioned paralyze, blocks fleeing, emotes damage (A desiccated zombie emotionlessly grabs a handful of flesh off of them body, and throws it at you!). Also disarms and eats your weapon (recover on kill).
