Welcome to our comprehensive guide for the Island of Terror dungeon in Thrones and Liberty! As a Level 50 Tier 2 dungeon, this instance presents a series of unique challenges and mechanics that require precise coordination and strategy. In this guide, we’ll walk you through each step, from the opening pull to the final boss, ensuring you can clear the dungeon smoothly and efficiently.


1. The Opening Pull and First Mini-Boss

As soon as you spawn, the tank must take charge immediately. Move swiftly to the right brazier and aggro all nearby mobs without attacking them directly. This allows the rest of the group to interact with the brazier safely and prevents the run from being slowed down by unnecessary combat.

After aggroing, the tank should hold threat while the group approaches the first mini-boss. Key tip: Ensure that no one attacks any mob before the tank has secured aggro, as this will make the run significantly longer and risk failure.


2. Freeing the Merchants and Managing Aggro

Once the first mini-boss is down, the tank must head right to pull mobs away from the two merchants, while the rest of the party moves left up the stairs to free a third merchant. Clearing the mobs guarding the left-side merchant will automatically free all three merchants without engaging the entire mob pack.

This strategy not only saves time but also reduces the risk of being overwhelmed by waves of enemies. By coordinating these movements effectively, your group can progress with minimal resistance.


3. Second Mini-Boss and Lava Mechanic

Move towards the second mini-boss after freeing the merchants. This boss has a simple but deadly mechanic: moving lava. He will cast this twice in a row, requiring you to jump to avoid the damage. Practice timing your jumps correctly, as failing this mechanic can result in significant damage.

After defeating the boss, proceed to the geyser, fly up, destroy the eggs, and eliminate the two mobs blocking the cave exit.


4. The Third Mini-Boss: Pillar Mechanic

The third mini-boss introduces a positioning mechanic involving three pillars. During the fight, one random player will be marked, prompting the boss to charge at them. Position the boss to crash into a pillar during this charge to prevent a group wipe.

Important: Two destroyed pillars won’t trigger a wipe, but all three must not remain standing. Make sure to communicate effectively to ensure the boss hits the pillars correctly.


5. Final Boss: Geysers, Meteors, and Fog Mechanics

The final boss room contains four geyser craters and several flowers. Each player must pick a flower to prepare for the upcoming mechanics.

Meteor and Fog Mechanics

  • The boss drops three meteors on random players. Dodge these and step into the fire to gain a burn debuff.
  • Use the burn debuff to clear the fog around the geysers.

Geyser Selection

  • Only one geyser will bubble, indicated by a sound cue. Clear all the fog to see which geyser is active.
  • Running into the correct geyser launches you into the air to dodge an AOE wipe attack. Morph into a bird mid-air to avoid fall damage.

6. Rat Morph and Shockwave Mechanic

In the second phase, the boss pulls everyone in, transforming them into rats while emitting a light shockwave. Avoid touching the barrier surrounding the boss.

Key Mechanic:

  • When targeted by the boss, press 1 to dig underground and remain there until the barrier disappears.
  • After the barrier drops, return above ground, run to your flower, and transform back into a human.

7. Post 50% HP Mechanics

Once the boss is below 50% HP, the geyser mechanic intensifies. Players must use two geysers consecutively:

  • Morph into a bird and glide to the second geyser promptly.
  • This phase repeats all prior mechanics, including Fury attacks and meteor showers.

8. Reward and Loot

Upon defeating the boss, you can spend 450 Abyss Dungeon Tokens to unlock the chest for loot. Ensure you’ve cleared all mechanics correctly to maximize your rewards.


By mastering these mechanics and following this guide, you’ll conquer the Island of Terror with ease. For more dungeon guides and tips, stay tuned and keep adventuring!
