Hellbound Stages (Important for Chimeras too, pls read everyone, make it sticky

[I945P]

i guess most of the ppl dont know how HB works atm, there are up to 10 Stages/Lvles of HB now, for example to unlock Chimeras we need to reach Stage 7 for the server. U can see the stage staus in the loader, at event section.

Most important thing is NOT to kill ANY Natives (they disappear automatically after killing the real mobs, dont hit them)  bcs this decreases the trust points which are needed to increase the Stages

Schematic HellBound Guide:

HB Stage 1 - Harbor

- Don't kill Subjugated Natives, Charmed Natives and Quarry Slaves because each of them killed decreases trust points by 10.
- Monsters that give 1 trust point each (Harbor Area):Junior Summoners, Junior Watchmen, Blind Huntsmen, Blind Watchmen.
- Monsters that give 3 trust points each (Megaliths): Arcane Scouts, Arcane Guardians and Arcane Watchmen.
- When you kill monsters you will occasionally get Darion's Badges. Keep them for later use.
- At first stage you must reach 300,000 trust points.

HB Stage 2 - Ancient Temple

- Still don't kill Subjugated Natives, Charmed Natives and Quarry Slaves because each of them killed decreases trust points by 10.
- Hand over Darion's Badges to Kief. For every darion's badge you get 10 trust points.
- Remember that once hellbound has reached level 2 the monsters you had to kill in stage 1 don't give anymore trust points, only darion's badges.
- Purchase a Native Helmet, a Native Tunic and Native Pants from Tailor Buron at the harbor entrance for 10 Darion's Badges each.
- Once you have the native set you will obtain a skill to transform into a native.
- Then go to Hidden Oasis and talk to Bernarde and buy holy water from him for 5 darion's badges.
- With the Holy Water obtained from Bernarde, head to ruins of the Ancient Temple.
- There you will meet three different souls: Remnant Wraith, Remnant Diviner, and Remnant Diabolist.
The Remnant Wraith can be simple killed, but the other two souls have to be attacked and relieved with the Holy
Water when their HP has decreased to zero.
- During stage 2 of Hellbound you must raise the number of overall trust points on the server
from 300,000 to 600,000.

HB Stage 3 - Native Village

- Still don't kill natives.
- As before you can hand over Darion's Badges to Kief. For every darion's badge you get 10 trust points.
- Even now at stage 3 hellbound you have to be transformed in native to interact with the npcs.
- Monsters that give 3 trust points each (Native Village): Darion's Executioner and Darion's Enforcer.
- Monsters that give 100 trust points each (Native Village): MiniBoss Keltas.
- Kill Keltasin order to get native treasures.
- In stage 3 hellbound Keltas spawn every 4 to 8 hours.
- Accumulate 1 million trust points then give 40 treasures to Jude and 1 to Bernarde to reach stage 4 hellbound.

HB Stage 4 - Relieving Derek of his Suffering

- Don't kill natives.
- You can still kill Keltas for native treasures which you can handle to Jude for a reward.
- In stage 4 hellbound Keltas spawn every 8 to 16 hours.
- Keltas or the other monsters at the Native Village will NOT give you trust points anymore when killed.
- Also you can't give darion badges to Kief to increase trust points anymore.
- You have to kill Derek at Ancient Temple Remnants to reach stage 5 hellbound.
- After that, Darion's Executioners and Darion's Enforcers will vanish and Keltas will not spawn any more.
- Kief and Tailor Buron can from now on be found in a building of the village.
- Obtain Basic Caravan Certificate from Trader Falk at the Hidden Oasis for 20 Darion's Badges.
- Then talk to Hude at Caravan Encampment to obtain Standard Caravan Certificate.
- You must bring Hude 30 Marks of Betrayal and 60 Poison Stingers from Wandering Caravans, Sand Scorpions and Desert Scorpions.
- With the Standard Caravan Certificate you can buy from Hude the so-called "Caravaner's Remedy" that neutralizes Heat of Desert debuff for 1 hour real time.
- One bottle is 25,000 adena, and the Remedy can not be traded or dropped.

HB Stage 5 - Rescuing Quarry Slaves

- Talk to Tailor Buron and Solomon in the main building of the Native Village.
- Then go talk with Jude and head to Hellbound Quarry.
- Here you must kill: Quarry Foremen, Patrolmen and Supervisors.
- After you have killed the guards, talk to the Slaves and tell them to follow you.
- Bring the Slaves to the end of the Quarry in southern end of the road and you will see a targetable stone pillar. At this point, the Slaves are safe.
- When saving the Quarry Slaves, watch out for the overseers who will kill any escaping Slave.
- Each dead slave will decrease the trust level on your server by 10 points.
- In a hidden corner of the Native Village you can find a Hellbound Traitor who can open a door for 10 Marks of Betrayal.
- Inside that room you can find Resistance Fighter General [Leodas] RaidBoss who drops only S-Grade Armor Enchantment Scrolls.
- To reach stage 6 you must rescue aprox 1000 quarry slaves.

HB Stage 6 - Battle for the Enchanted Megaliths

- In stage 6 hellbound some changes are present at the Enchanted Megaliths.
- More monster appeared there:
- Naia's Defender [Hellinark] is a lvl 84 Raid Boss.
- Hellinark can use his magical powers to summon [Naia Failans], cactus-like crystalline who can cast debuffs on everyone threatening them and their master.
- Hellinark has a great number of [Failan's Guards] and [Arcane Guardians] at his disposal.Both of them are spoiling EWS scrolls.
- Like at [Stage 5] you can talk to the Hellbound Traitor at the Native Village. Give him 10 Marks of Betrayal, and you will have a chance to kill Resistance Fighter General [Leodas].
- Once the Enchanted Megaliths are taken, the invisible barrier isolating the Battered Lands will fall and the Chimeras living there can be hunted this meaning you reached stage 7 hellbound.

HB Stage 7 - Battered Lands and S80 Recipes
- Talk to Caravan Merchant Hude at Caravan Encampment and bring him 56 Life Forces and 14 Contained Life Forces to obtain Premium Caravan Certificate.
- For collecting the Life Forces you need a Magic Bottle that can be obtained for 20 Scorpion Poison Stingers from NPC Kief at the Native Village.
- Head to Battered Lands and kill Chimeras for Dim Life Force and regular Life Force.
- Contained Life Force can be obtained from their leader Celtus.
- After you collected 56 regular Life Forces and 14 Contained Life Forces you must obtain from Hude the Premium Caravan Certificate.
- This Premium Caravan Certificate entitles you to trade with him for key materials and recipes needed to craft Dynasty equipment - weapons, armor and jewelry.
- Caravan Merchant Hude does not take adena, however, but pieces of paper you obtain by double-clicking on an Ancient Tome of the Demon: Hidden First Pages, Hidden Second Pages or Demon Contract Fragments.
- To reach hellbound stage 8 you must keep bringing all types of life forces to Kief.

[I945P]

HB Stage 8 - Iron Castle Gate

- This stage is rather easy. All you have to do is kill the Outpost Captain, a fierce horned devil using dual swords, and the gate will open for the next stage.
- Aside from the Outpost Captain, you should also watch out for the [Enceinte Defenders].
- Some of them can take out single attackers over a long distance, while others can wipe out whole groups with one single strike in close-hand combat.
- After killing the Outpost Captain, you can proceed to liberate the slaves Beleth keeps at the oasis behind the Enceinte.

HB Stage 9 - Rescuing Native Slaves at the Inner Oasis

- In this stage you have to free the native slaves from oasis behind iron gate by giving them darion badges.
- After entering the Iron Castle gate and turning south, you will soon arrive at a little lake, with some trees and tents.
- The slaves living there are far from home. With at least five Darion's Badges, you can help them travel back to the west of the island.
- It will also increase the number of accumulated trust points on the server.
- After giving a certain amount of Darion's Badges to the slaves, you will be able to enter the next level.
- You will know that this point is reached when a slave you talk to is telling you that he now can experience the feeling of Hellbound being liberated.
- This oasis is the place where the Legendary Blacksmith Shadai can sometimes be met.
- He spawns only at midnight in-game time in one of the tents but not everyday, but it is worth waiting for him.
- Matras has two quests:
-> Matras's Curiosity => You can pick up the quest at this stage, but you can only progress through it at stage 11.
-> Matras' Suspicious Request => You can pick up the quest at this stage, but you can only progress through it at stage 10.

HB Stage 10 - Market Town

- When you talk to a slave at the Inner Oasis and he tells you that he now can experience the feeling of Hellbound being liberated, means that stage 10 Hellbound has been reached.
- Now you are ready for the Market Town, a 30 minute instance for 2 or more persons of lvl 78 or above.
- To enter the instance, talk to Kanaf on the southern edge of the town.
- Once inside you do two things:
-> Killing monsters: Town Guards, Town Patrolmen.
-> Rescue native prisoners in the buildings to increase trust points.
- Find Steel Citadel Keymaster that is hiding random in one of the buildings.
- When you kill the Keymaster, he will drop with a certain probability a Key of the Evil Eye.
- After you have the Key, you can eliminate the lvl 86 Torture Expert Amaskari in the center of the town.
- Don't kill tortured natives cause this will reduce the level of trust on the server.
- Amaskari is dead, fight your way to the northeastern end of town, where you will find a Moonlight Stele.

- If one member gets disconected from the internet the whole party will be teleported back to the oasis near the Enceinte.
- When everybody has arrived, hit the brown bunny. It dies immediately and spawns a bunch of Naia Spores.

- Fire Epidos -> You must kill Water Spores
- Earth Epidos -> You must kill Wind Spores
- Water Epidos -> You must kill Fire Spores
- Wind Epidos -> You must kill Earth Spores
- If you kill one Water Spore chance for Fire Epidos to spawn increases if you kill another element Spore it decreases.
- After you have killed the Epidos a Teleportation Cubic will appear that is supposed to teleport your whole group into Beleth's throne room.

END GUIDE

You are right - HB should work on this way. BUT.... One big BUT. Our HB was custom made - we all know that. Now we have HB stage 1 on Gracia final server - and that is absolutly not fear for players. We all played for year and more on custom full unlocked HB. Players havent any conection, that before HB was custom. Also - there is not so much ppl atm to fight for fully leveld HB.
Just sugestion to Track and Drake - may be they should unlock all stages of HB manualy.  Its litle strange after we had for year and more fully unlocked HB , now to need to unlock again.

[wildpussy]

it's useless to do anything on hellbound, locked or unlocked, you got no business there

normally it was supposed to be a big deal when hb staged level 7 for rush on celtuses and dyna stuff

but at least we get to see how it was supposed to be
