The **Tomb of the Ancients** is an endgame dungeon whose portal has a change of dropping from Grand Sphinx event boss, which spawns once per realm. The portal stays open for 30 seconds.

The tomb is a source of the rare [Potions of Life](/wiki/stat-increase-potions) and other [powerful untiered items](/wiki/tomb-of-the-ancients#interest), making the dungeon arguably one of the most popular dungeons in the game for advanced players. The dungeon has several hazards, including indestructible turrets that cause various status effects, quicksand that slows movement the longer players are in it, powerful enemies, and a highly strategic boss fight.

**Example of the highly sought after 4 gold room tomb:**

The Dungeon

You enter the Tomb in the boss room. However, the bosses are inactive until you complete the dungeon quests; killing all the Sarcophagi. The Sarcophagi are scattered throughout the Tomb. To reach them, you must deal with quick-sand, indestructible traps, and a host of unique (and deadly) minions - all with significant health, damage, and crowd-controlling abilities. Each tomb has 5 "event" rooms where there will be either sarcophagi or treasure with a minimum of 1 sarcophagi in each tomb. IE, if there were 3 sarcophagi destroyed and the tomb bosses have activated, there must be 2 treasure rooms left somewhere. Once all Sarcophagi are destroyed, the Bosses will become active and the remaining players will have to deal with most challenging encounter as of Build 121.

Strategies

Fast Clear - the fastest way to clear the Tomb is to have a Rogue run-and-cloak to bypass all the intermediate rooms between the Sarcophagi. This allows the remainder of the group to teleport to the quests. This strategy will also involve leaving at least one person near the dungeon entrance, allowing the group to quickly engage the bosses after the last Sarcophagus is killed. The beauty of this strategy is it can be accomplished with very small groups, avoiding in otherwise epic amount of time wasted on lesser minions.

Half-Boss

Half-Boss	Facts
	This is a Sarcophagus It has only one attack: Shoots multiple projectiles that stun for 6-8 seconds It has 8 sentries. They have 4 attacks : one weakens, the other three cause significant damage. Killing off these "sentries" one by one is the best way because they continuously heal the sarcophagus by 200 HP per second. Sarcophagus drops tinctures

Bosses

Boss	Facts
	This is BES He's a Tank His Silver Shield stuns - It looks similar to the white stun of the Sarcophagus. His Fire Boomerang - breaks armor. Stationary on rage phase, but will chase if you get too close. Drops Potion of Life, Ring of the Pyramid, Tome of Holy Protection & Wine Cellar Incantation (Soulbound)
	This is NUT She's a healer and crowd-controller. You will see: Slow, Blind, Weak, Quiet, Paralyze, and Armor Break. Most of these effects come from boomerang bullets and arrows. Each phase there are more status-effecting bullets. Watch out for an arrow with green feathers at final phases. It causes the most significant damage + paralyze. She is stationary during rage phase, but will quickly chase you if you're in range. A rogue's cloak will prevent some targeted attacks. It will not negate damage or status effects. Drops Potion of Life, Ring of the Sphinx & Wine Cellar Incantation (Soulbound)
	This is GEB His role is a damage dealer His grenades hurt. There are more grenades for each phase Watch for Darkness Bullets (280hp per hit, ouch), more bullets for each phase. They also pierce. Other bosses also use the Darkness Bullets. They all hurt but not quite as much as Geb's. Stationary on rage phase, but will back up if you get too close. Charges forward approximately every 8 seconds if a player is in range during rage phase. Drops Potion of Life, Ring of the Nile & Wine Cellar Incantation (Soulbound)

The Fight: All bosses are activated together and circle the center of their room. Each boss has different phases based around their total HP. Each phase typically entails more bullets, damage, crowd-control, different movement speed, and different boss positioning. The natural kill order is shown in the above table from top to bottom (due to Pyramid Artifacts and Bes' abilities being the least deadly of the three bosses) Build 121 Fight Changes: The room has a lot more quicksand and now has 4 large pillars and 4 small pillars to hide behind for the fight. The addition of more quicksand makes the fight harder than the previous build.
