##Lair of Shaitan (Suggested Level: 20 and 6/8)

The Lair of Shaitan is the first and currently the only boss dungeon in Realm. The boss and his minions hit hard and defense will not help here. It is highly suggested to have a 6/8 character and have good dodging skills in tight spaces. ###Class tips ####Priest The priest can be extremely helpful in here. The tight battling area and armour-piercing bullets will hurt everyone badly, but the priest is able to heal everyone and protect them from a fiery death. A Tome of Purification can also be extremely useful in small groups preventing players from being overwhelmed by being paralyzed. ####Rogue His cloaking ability is extremely useful in here, as this allows the rogue to go unnoticed to the hands of Shaitan and the creepy small heads, both of which are the main causes of threat in the dungeon ####Archer/Huntress With the Archer's paralysing quivers and the Huntress's coral trap, they can paralyse the creepy small heads to allow the group to back off far away from them. ###Why & How to find the Lair of Shaitan ####Why

-This is a very hard dungeon and honestly I can't justify why people would pay money for this dungeon. It's notably harder than other dungeons, that much is true. However, the reward of attack and defense isn't guaranteed, and instead you might end up with a small dexterity tincture. This dungeon can drop old tops, but in comparison to easier dungeons, you might be better off farming cemeteries or labs for those old tops. It's still not a bad experience though, and the skull is incredibly rare and powerful, so if one opens up, you might as well go in.. ####How Janus the Doorwarden

To even enter the Lair of Shaitan, one has to defeat Janus, the secret boss of Oryx's castle (which you must defeat all the suits of armor to battle her) and enter the court of Oryx. From there, the Lair of Shaitan will open. The key can also be bought in the nexus for 100 gold. The latter is usually what people do, as the former is incredibly hard, takes a very long time, gives an incredibly small reward, and you might not even get to Shaitan if you break Janus's chest and get your measly vitality potion. Therefore, it's better if you use the key. It gives slightly less reward but is definitely more safe. ###Navigating through the dungeon Since this is a boss dungeon, it has only one room. There is hot lava (similar to the ones found in the Ivory Wyvren's room or the Shatters) at the top half of the room where Shaitan and his hands will spawn along with a platform at the bottom half of the room. ###Minions ####Left hand of Shaitan/Right hand of Shaitan These hands spawn side by side of Shaitan himself. When first spawned, they shoot out 125 damage bullets and should be avoided. After a few seconds they charge at the nearest player to try and "grip" them, which they do so by shooting paralysing bullets in a short radius around them. This doesn't do alot of damage, however, creepy small heads that are left un-killed can pose as a huge threat. Both of these hands have to be killed in a short amount of time to make Shaitan vulnerable ####Creepy small hands These spawn when Shaitan is vulnerable and submerging into hot lava. They don't do alot of damage (around 13 damage armor pierce) but when in large numbers, they can still pose as a huge threat. They move towards you in an attempt to shotgun you with their EP-like bullets and they also slow you to make sure you don't escape easily. It is advised to kill these if they start overwhelming you. ####Creepy small heads These enemies spawn when Shaitan's hands reappear again(after he is vulnerable). They deal 70 damage armour-pierce and are by far the most dangerous minions of Shaitan. Their shots are easy to avoid but if they are to be combined with the Hands of Shaitan's paralyse bullets, you will be Oh-so-sorry you even came in here the first place. ##The Boss ###Shaitan the Advisor

- The boss of the Lair of Shaitan, he has a whopping 90k health along with 150 armor-pierce bullets. He has a total of 3 phases, the paralyse hand phase, the submerge-in-lava phase and the quiet hands phase. - During the Paralyse hands phase, he sits in the middle of the lava pool while shooting 3 bullets at you in a wide arc. - When both of his hands are killed in a small amount of time, he submerges into the lava and will reappear at your RIGHT side of the lava pool, vulnerable and shooting 2 bursts of bullets at the nearest player. He will then submerge and appear in the middle of the lava pool, once again vulnerable and shooting the 2 bursts of bullets. Then he will submerge and appear at your LEFT side of the lava pool, doing the same. - If enough damage is dealt to him during the Submerge phase, he will then appear in the middle of the room invulnerable while his two hands are clenched as fists. The fists will act as homing missles in an attempt to shotgun you with quiet. It does deal quiet a sum of damage so you should try and avoid his "fists of war". He will also be throwing patches of hot lava around the room. - Upon death, he shouts:" THE MAD GOD SHALL KNOW OF THESE TRANSGRESSIONS" and explodes one last blast of bullets and all his minions disappear. After a few seconds a test chest will spawn in the middle of the room. ####Side Note(s) - Do not be afraid to nexus when you find yourself overwhelmed, try and get a decent sized/good group to fight alongside with you, and good luck in getting the Tarot card or the UT skull!
