Broken Tower
Directly east from the Rock Valley palisade is an ancient, crumbling tower that holds two tear amphoras within an upper alcove and at the summit. The tower is considered a holy site by the barbarian tribes and once hosted a peace mission between the sister of the chief of the Nehal, Tyrlindax, and a client of Calastor Triarchus.
This hunting area is best suited for mid-high level fighters and is located east of the Town of Rock Valley.
As you often need to switch between opponents, there is no suggested macro.
Highlights
- Up to 2 possible tears available to collect from this area.

Hunting Ground
The upper hallways are in disrepair and haven't been properly maintained in centuries; traversing across the unstable floors is not only arduous, but dangerous, as well. The tower is also inhabited by vicious nest turtles; overly aggressive creatures that foster a symbiotic relationship with insects referred to as shield bees. The shield bees often reside within overdeveloped structures within the nest turtle's shell and emerge to defend their host should it be attacked.
Any attempt to collect a tear from an amphora will result in 2 nest turtles spawning.
Opponents
- Nest Turtles: Nest turtles have a high chance of blocking anyone from exiting the room they occupy until they are dispatched (higher stats can make it easier to escape), but before you can attack the turtle directly you must first kill their shield bees. If you take too long to kill their shield bees, turtles will begin to hit you much more easily.
- Shield Bees: Shield bees are only vulnerable to attack when they are 'open' and not protected by their mandibles. Attacking while a shield bee is 'closed' will only waste time and energy. Time your strikes accordingly and focus only on those shield bees that are open to attack, they are relatively weak if you can land an actual strike. Any attack on a shield bee will cause them to close immediately, so multi-hitting moves are advantageous here. HINT: The shield bees each have unique adjectives to describe them, use those for targeting!
Loot: Crystal Tears.
