To get rich, of course. The scariest minions can drop para rings and the boss and secret boss can drop pieces of the Sorceror set which are worth several life each. Wis drops 100% of the time, while Def drops sometimes.

In Godlands, the Flying Brains, the pink gods, drop Mad Labs all the time. The Mad Lab has a low drop rate, but the main problem is that Flying Brains have a low spawn rate.

Class Guides

Robe Classes: Navigate through the dungeon easily. The shots travel slow enough to dodge. Leather Classes: Precautions needed because you need to get closer. Ability use advised. Armor Classes and Ninjas: This is extremely hard without a Juggernaut Helm, Oreo, good Shield, or lots of MP to use your shuriken with. Calling out your lab is highly reccomended. I learned this the hard way.

Things to worry you

Enforcer Bots

These are dangerous because of their massive damage dealing abilities, combined with the Mini Bots they spawn when they die. These guys shoot two different shotguns, the long range one does 150 per shot, and the short range one does 60 per shot but has the Stun status effect. When they die they drop 1-4 Mini Bots to fight, these Mini Bots just might confuse you right into another, vengeful Enforcer Bot.

Crusher Abominations

These are probably the most lethal and scary monster in the dungeon. These creatures, along with having 2x the health of a medusa, can deal massive damage in a single shot. Before you have even shot this creature once it can do a whooping 180 damage per shot, but the more you hit it the more damage it does with each passing shot, Half way before killing him he can 210 damage per shot and I haven’t been unfortunate enough to get hit near the end, but I have heard the rages on my guild chat from those who have. When fighting these you want to make sure you have nothing to stab you in the back, you will also want to make sure you have space to back up, because I do not advice bravery here. Also know that Escaped Experiments can heal the Abomination 300 hp per second so make sure to kill any of those big green guys you see first. Once you have killed one don’t think your safe, there is probably another one right next to it.

Mini Bots

These little jerks are everywhere and seem to know when you are focused on a big enemy, because that is when they strike. Alone these monsters are worthless but when you are fighting something that can insta-kill you in a 3 short hits, I suggest you be on the look out for pink.

Navigating through the dungeon

Okay navigating through this dungeon is really real simple. With every room you enter, all you do is get in, make something mad shoot at it, and hope you don’t get lag. My “Things to worry you” section covers most of your difficulties. I do hope you will try to clear every single room before you go to fight the boss. There are 3 reasons to do so. 1. Weeds out all the people who don’t belong in a dungeon this difficult. 2. Helps you get to the secret boss so much faster. 3. Most people leave after they have killed Dr. Terrible. (more loot for you) It is because people leave so much that you want to take advantage of their existence while they are still there, so try and clear the whole dungeon before the main boss fight. When you clear a room also shoot every single white box, these are the tesla coils, if you destroy every single one in the dungeon you will open the secret room where the 2nd boss is. Once you have done all that you are ready to fight the Boss(es). There are two other things you should know, one green acid turns you into an animal, which makes it so you can shoot but it makes you extremely fast, great for running away, also while an animal you can STILL use your abilities, this is great for an unmaxed priest who just wants to help out. In every Mad Lab there is an acid room, each different from the last in design. You have to dodge confusion shots and get past the room with out falling into the acid, the acid is just slightly weaker lave, so stay out of it, try to remember the confusion acronym: “LDRUDLUR” (Left is Down, Right is Up, Down is Left, and Up is Right) If someone made that there user name I would be kinda proud, but then they would use it to scam someone and I would be slightly less so.

The Boss, Dr. Terrible

photo ScreenShot2013-01-29at74456AM_zps068c6329.png

Dr. Terrible is the Boss fight of only two directions to run. What do I mean you ask, I mean you should never go left or right in this fight, you should start from the very middle of the hallway and either go up to attack him or down to dodge him or a confusion shot. Smack damn in the middle is where the towers that shoot 200 damage shots can’t hit you. So I usually suggest you do something, well this time I DEMAND you either go up or down, no left or right, if you wish to argue with me, i’m dancing on your grave, okay? GOOD. Have fun ;D

Treasure Room, Horrific Creation

Despite what people think, this boss is quite solo-able, but if you are doing it with someone else you need to discuss who will be bait before hitting the last tesla coil. For those of you unfamiliar with the term, or the purpose he is the rundown. This boss is the most powerful, most damaging boss ever (In sheer numbers anyways) and he is absolutely invincible. The only way to get him to be vulnerable is to get him to walk into the green acid. The only way to get him to do that is if one person, ONLY ONE, plays bait and stays tricks the beast into the acid. If you and someone else bait then it will be a long fight as you will both cancel each other out. Melees and priests are the best bait, but that is irrelevant as i am going to teach you haw to be bait with out ANYONE getting hit. When entering the Horrific Creations little kennel (:P) everyone who is not bait should immediately go into the corners on the left. While the bait is going to work be ready at what ever pool of acid he is working on, ready to heal, boost or spam the boss. If you are the bait, enter the acid, become one with your animalistic side, and say NANA NANA BOO BOO. Stay in the middle of the acid but move up and down to both get the ugos attention and avoid that lovely slowing shotgun he does when he lands. As soon as he lands run to the Blue acid pool and do your damage. When the Horrific Creation gets to 1/2 of his health, he will not immediately go into the chase phase after curing himself, he will now start to shoot at people once before he goes to chase, if he doesn’t see anyone he can land on after he shoots at people then he will go back to shooting them again, and there are 17 shots total everytime he does that. Now here is how you know you're a cool person if you're bait, when he starts shooting you can make sure he doesn’t attack anyone else, you will have time to circle him 2 times and then go back into the acid to bait him in there. Make sure if you are bait you are an animal at all times until the boss is an animal then you can change back until he changes back, other wise you can do some of the tips I tell you to do. Incase you haven't notice by my dry humor above, this is indeed my favorite boss battle ever, despite his lack of UT drops. Though people like me volunteer to be bait, both because its fun and I am the best bait ever, people who do might not get a drop, be sure to show some love if you have ran with the same bait over and over again.

Side Note(s)

When going through this dungeon listen to "Oingo Boingo - Weird Science" it will make you time in this dungeon really silly. There are also some rumors saying that if you destroy the tables you may find in some rooms, you will get less drops. These rumors are not confirmed.
