The '''Xerxes Auraorb Quest''' takes a team of '''six players''' through an Ankrahmun tomb, a sacrifice ritual and the fight against '''Ancient Xerxes'''. Each character can collect one '''Xerxes Auraorb''' from the final chest. Wearing it in the '''Auraorb slot''' grants a '''5% experience boost''', alongside its equipment bonuses.

<div style="border-left:5px solid #d29922;padding:.7em 1em;margin:1em 0;background:#171b22;">'''Full spoiler:''' this guide includes the entrance, floor changes, exact offering positions and reward. Click a map to enlarge it. Coordinates are <code>x, y, z</code>; a larger z means a deeper floor. Maps face north.</div>

'''Route:''' Ankrahmun entrance → tomb floors 8–11 → level 250 door → six thrones → Ancient Xerxes → temporary reward portal → orb chest.

__TOC__

== Preparation ==

* Bring '''six players, each level 250 or higher'''. The level 250 door is before the throne room. Meeting the level requirement alone does not mean the team is ready for the boss.
* Prepare for a long underground route and a strong boss with physical, earth and death attacks, plus mana drain. Bring enough healing and mana supplies for everyone.
* Bring the offerings below. These quantities are for '''one team activation''', not for each player. '''The offerings are consumed when the ritual succeeds.'''
* Leave room for the reward and keep the whole team together before starting the ritual.

<div style="overflow-x:auto;">
{| class="wikitable" style="width:100%;"
! Total for the team !! Item !! Important detail
|-
| 6 || '''Helmet of the Ancients''' || Use the ordinary '''Armor: 8''' helmet. The enchanted '''Armor: 11''' version has the same name but does not work here.
|-
| 2 || '''Scarab Amulet''' || One goes at each outer end of the two offering benches.
|-
| 2 || '''Holy Scarab''' || These are Holy Scarabs, not Scarab Coins.
|}
</div>

== 1. Find the entrance in Ankrahmun ==

Reach the three adjacent portals at '''<code>33150–33152,32556,7</code>'''. Any of them takes you to the tomb entrance at '''<code>33482,32651,8</code>'''.

<div style="overflow-x:auto;">[[File:WAD Guide xerxes-entrance.png|960px|Ankrahmun entrance and return location]]</div>

The nearby portal at <code>33480,32652,8</code> returns you to Ankrahmun at <code>33152,32563,7</code>. Continue through the tomb to reach the deeper floors.

== 2. Descend to the throne room ==

Follow the passages on each map to the next staircase. The numbered markers identify the arrival and next objective on that floor.

=== Floor 8: entrance to the eastern stairs ===

From <code>33482,32651,8</code>, follow the tomb passages to the stairs at '''<code>33535–33536,32668,8</code>''' and descend to floor 9.

<div style="overflow-x:auto;">[[File:WAD Guide xerxes-floor8.png|960px|Tomb floor 8: entrance and stairs to floor 9]]</div>

=== Floor 9: reach the southwestern stairs ===

Continue through the passages to '''<code>33474–33476,32692,9</code>''' and descend to floor 10.

<div style="overflow-x:auto;">[[File:WAD Guide xerxes-floor9.png|960px|Tomb floor 9: the route to the next staircase]]</div>

=== Floor 10: reach the western stairs ===

Find the stairs at '''<code>33465–33467,32670,10</code>''' and descend to floor 11.

<div style="overflow-x:auto;">[[File:WAD Guide xerxes-floor10.png|960px|Tomb floor 10: the route to floor 11]]</div>

=== Floor 11: open the level 250 door ===

Reach the door at '''<code>33497,32684,11</code>'''. Each player needs '''level 250''' to pass. The six thrones are in the room immediately east of this door.

<div style="overflow-x:auto;">[[File:WAD Guide xerxes-floor11.png|960px|Tomb floor 11: staircase and throne-room door]]</div>

You may find '''half-burned pages''' while exploring. They provide hints about Xerxes, scarabs and the helmets; collecting them is not required to activate the thrones.

== 3. Arrange the offerings ==

Place the items in the positions below, all on '''floor 11'''. Put the correct item on top and keep unrelated items off these offering positions.

<div style="overflow-x:auto;">[[File:WAD Guide xerxes-thrones.png|960px|Six player positions in the Xerxes ritual room]]</div>

=== Helmets: one directly north of each player ===

Place one '''ordinary Helmet of the Ancients''' on each of these six positions:

<div style="overflow-x:auto;">
{| class="wikitable" style="width:100%;"
! Throne marker !! Player stands at !! Helmet goes at
|-
| 1 || <code>33502,32683,11</code> || <code>33502,32682,11</code>
|-
| 2 || <code>33507,32683,11</code> || <code>33507,32682,11</code>
|-
| 3 || <code>33512,32683,11</code> || <code>33512,32682,11</code>
|-
| 4 || <code>33502,32686,11</code> || <code>33502,32685,11</code>
|-
| 5 || <code>33507,32686,11</code> || <code>33507,32685,11</code>
|-
| 6 || <code>33512,32686,11</code> || <code>33512,32685,11</code>
|}
</div>

=== Scarabs and amulets: the two middle benches ===

The four offerings share the same y-coordinate, between the two rows of thrones. From west to east:

<div style="overflow-x:auto;">
{| class="wikitable" style="width:100%;"
! Position !! Place this item
|-
| <code>33504,32684,11</code> || 1 Scarab Amulet
|-
| <code>33505,32684,11</code> || 1 Holy Scarab
|-
| <code>33509,32684,11</code> || 1 Holy Scarab
|-
| <code>33510,32684,11</code> || 1 Scarab Amulet
|}
</div>

== 4. Activate the six thrones ==

# Finish placing all '''ten offerings''' before the last player steps onto a throne.
# Put one player on each of the '''six numbered throne positions'''.
# When the final player steps onto their throne with all positions and offerings correct, the six players are teleported to '''<code>33541,32686,12</code>'''. The offerings are consumed and '''Ancient Xerxes''' appears to the north.
# If everyone was already standing in position while the offerings were being arranged, have one player step off and back onto their throne to check the ritual again.

The blue portal on the '''east side of the throne room''' is a separate passage. Use the six-throne ritual to enter the Ancient Xerxes fight.

== 5. Defeat Ancient Xerxes ==

Ancient Xerxes appears at '''<code>33541,32671,12</code>''', north of the party's arrival point.

* Expect strong melee, earth and death damage, as well as mana drain. Avoid lining up the whole group in front of the boss's beams.
* '''Fire, energy and earth damage do not work against this boss.''' Choose other damage types.
* Keep the group ready to move after the kill: the reward portal is temporary.

<div style="overflow-x:auto;">[[File:WAD Guide xerxes-boss-reward.png|720px|Ancient Xerxes arena and the reward chamber]]</div>

When Ancient Xerxes dies, a portal appears at '''<code>33541,32671,12</code>'''. It lasts '''240 seconds — 4 minutes''' and leads to the reward chamber at '''<code>33541,32655,12</code>'''. '''Every player who needs the orb must enter before it disappears.'''

== 6. Collect the orb and leave ==

# After taking the boss portal, use the chest immediately north at '''<code>33541,32653,12</code>'''.
# Each character can claim '''one Xerxes Auraorb'''. Every eligible player must use the chest personally; killing the boss alone does not place the orb in your inventory.
# Equip the orb in your '''Auraorb slot''' to receive its '''5% experience boost'''. Keeping it in a backpack does not activate that boost. You can check it with <code>!expboost</code>.
# Leave through the portal at '''<code>33542,32658,12</code>'''. It returns you to '''<code>33152,32563,7</code>''' in Ankrahmun.

If the reward does not fit in your inventory, check your '''depot inbox''' and the delivery message. A character that has already claimed this chest cannot collect a second orb from it.

== Troubleshooting ==

<div style="overflow-x:auto;">
{| class="wikitable" style="width:100%;"
! Problem !! What to check
|-
| The throne-room door will not let me through. || Each player needs level 250.
|-
| The ritual says “Something is missing..”. || Check all ten offering positions and the item on top of each position. Use six ordinary Armor: 8 helmets, two Scarab Amulets and two Holy Scarabs.
|-
| All offerings are correct, but nothing happens. || Six players must occupy the six exact throne positions. After arranging the items, have one player step off and back on.
|-
| My Helmet of the Ancients is rejected. || The enchanted Armor: 11 version is a different item. Use the ordinary Armor: 8 version.
|-
| I found the hint pages but cannot enter the boss room. || The pages are clues. The six players and correctly placed offerings activate the ritual.
|-
| The boss died, but I did not receive the orb. || Take the four-minute portal and personally use the final chest. The orb is a chest reward.
|-
| The chest says “it's empty.”. || This character has already claimed its reward. If you just claimed it and cannot find the item, check your depot inbox and the delivery message.
|-
| I own the orb but do not see its experience boost. || Equip it in the Auraorb slot, then use <code>!expboost</code>.
