Walkthrough

Uldaman backdoor boss run. There's a couple of things in life that, occasionally, feel really good when done fast and from behind. Killing the Uldaman boss is one of them.

First to find the backdoor. It is a cave up a mountainside in the Badlands, somewhat East of centre of the place. The mountainside and tunnel entrance are facing West. You can recognise it by the troggs that are around, rather than the panthers and buzzards. Kill the troggs, move into the instance.

The instance is a confusing place with troggs, dwarfs, bats and the occasional batch of scorpions. Kill them all, the big server in the sky will sort them out. Don't let the scorpion batches scare you: they are not elite. You need to move generally North first, then generally East. Identify the Uldaman boss place on your minimap: it is a circular cavern, with a 'u' made up of square corridors around it.

Just before the entrance to the boss place is a jumbly cavern with lots of dorfs that have a tendency to chain-aggro. Pull them carefully and do not let them run. Well, erm, don't let mistakes dissapoint you... Resurrect your party, kill the remaining patch of dorfs and you are ready to work your way down to the Uldaman boss, Mr Archeadas.

It is quite simple: you have to work your way down through the corridors and circular caverns. There is only one way to go so no chance of getting lost here. First, you will encounter groups of mobs that consist of one big stone guardian, a couple of smaller melee, and one or two white small healing buggers. Get the white small healing buggers first. The groups will get larger as you work down.

After the top set of corridors you will come to a circular place with an altar in the middle and four nervous stone guardians around it. You need three people to activate the altar, after which the stone guardians will come alive one by one. They are straightforward melee, but do a burst of AoE damage when they die. Squishies may want to move away at the end of the fights so that healers don't need to spend much mana on healing non-melee group members.

You can now move into the bottom set of corridors for some more groups of mobs.

The lower circular cavern is where you find Archaedes, boss of Uldaman, another four stone guardians, and lots of fat clay elemental buggers in a circle on the wall. They are all asleep at the moment. Archeadas can be hard to recognise because he looks just like a stone guardian. By sure to identify him by the red rose he wears on his tuxedo.

The Archaedas fight is as follows. You activate another altar with three people. Archaedas will come alive and will start shouting to wake up the other mobs one by one. You need to focus on the boss; all of the other mobs will disappear once he dies. A tank has to grab firm aggro on Archaedas (if you bring a pally, tank aggro is solidly established if you let him heal himself first before the group healer kicks in). The rest of the group ought to focus on inflicting maximal pain on Archaedas. All except one - preferably a hunter, because of the pet. This one group member keeps the mobs busy that get woken up.

With enough firepower, Archaedes falls before too many mobs get woken up. He drops a niceish random stat ring and one other rare thingy. In the back is a room with a chest with three greens, and a quest that gives you a DvD with a history of the world. -Rana
