Falatacot Medallion

(Live Event)

Starting point
Talk to Gruuk'lar in Kor-Gursha. He'll tell you about the disappearance of Asheron and Torgluuk, and the Falatacot deep down in the Cavern appropriate to your level.

Levels and how to find the right dungeon
Travel to:

Navigation
To find the caverns: proceed as followed: The dungeon consists of organically shaped, circling huge rooms, which are connected by twisting corridors. Easy to lose your sense of direction here. However, except a room with a portal and a room to which I refer to as the "10 exit" room, most rooms have only one way in, and one way out. General idea is.. down is good.

Portal in. Behind you are exit portals, in front you can either go left or right. It doesn't matter which way, since the dungeon is symmetrical, but to keep it easy, go right first.

Run through the corridor, till you exit from the N into the first room. Hug the left wall, soon to your left (W) is the next corridor. It twists, and you exit from the W into the next room. Hug left again, and soon to the S is the next corridor. It twists, and you exit in a room where you see a portal exit. If you want to go on to the Cavern, go further down. Do not take the corridor on the other side of the portal, or you will indeed run in a circle.

Run half a circle N, till you see 3 trees. Opposite these trees are 2 corridors going S and down. It doesn't matter which one you take. The corridor goes down and up again, and you exit in the next circular room from the N. Run S in half a circle, take one of the 2 N going corridors.

You'll be in a corridor with pillars, which winds first N, then to the E. At a certain moment, you see a ramp to the S. This will turn quickly till you face N again, and exit in a huge circular room again, with a total of 10 exits.

Run half a circle again, till you see one of the 2 exits N, close to 2 exits S. Go down, and you'll be in a room with a ramp in the middle.

Go down ramp and in a corridor with pillars, a bit straight is portal to the Cavern of your level. Two exit portals here too.

The other exits in the "10 exit room": The E and W one twist till they split off. Go further S (and down) and it twists and you end back in room, go further E or W and you run through 2 rooms, second one has an exit portal. Two of the S exits have single, dead end rooms.

Navigating the Caverns and killing the Falatacot
General idea is: east.. east.. east and a bit north

From drop, head east and follow the corridor. At the first intersection, go left (N) into a big room with two ramps. Go East down the ramp and keep going east till you can go into a corridor to the east. Follow this corridor with more ramps down, into another bigger room. Go N, and at the end, go right into the corridor to the East (for the 121+, to the left, west, is one of the rooms where Bosh Bosh can spawn). Hug the right wall, and another bigger room. Go down, and take the corridor to the east, and keep going east (the corridor will circle), you will get another curve, and are facing westward into another big room. This is were it can get nasty. Best is to try to try to lure the other creatures one by one to your corridor, until you get the boss lady herself for your group.

The Falatacot Madames are located deep deep in the Caverns and guarded by different minions. 1-40 has Tormented Servant; 41-80 has Tormented Attendant; 81-120 has Tormented Consort and Tormented Patriarch; 121+ has Tormented Imperial Consort

Lore & Dialog
Gruuk'lar tells you, "Greetings, traveler from Dereth." Gruuk'lar tells you, "Don't look too surprised that I know your language. We've had one of your people here for some time, teaching us of your ways.  Teaching us of this metal you call 'Pyreal' and of how to engage in 'Commerce'." Gruuk'lar tells you, "But I digress. I'm no gatherer or 'merchant' to trade in such things.  I'm a guardian of this small Tribe, and my Clutch helps protect and hide this place from the others." Gruuk'lar tells you, "There are four caverns which have become connected to this cavern via magic, "Portals" I have heard them called. They appeared the same time Torgluuk and Asheron disappeared, and occasionally Guruk come through them to attack us.  I have sent hunters from my Clutch, but none have returned, and I can't afford to send more, as we must be ready to defend the village." Gruuk'lar tells you, "These Guruk who attack us seem to be being controlled by those your people call Falatacot. The False Gods of our hated Fiazhat enemies.  Travel into these 'Portals', destroy these False Gods, and bring proof of their demise to me, and I will reward you." Gruuk'lar looks you over. Gruuk'lar tells you, "There is a portal to the Southern Catacombs, down the tunnel to the Northeast of here. In the depths of those catacombs, you will find the portal to the Deep Guruk Caverns."

Gruuk'lar tells you, "Have you had any success in destroying the Falatacot who seek to control our world?" Gruuk'lar tells you, "There is a portal to the Southern Catacombs, down the tunnel to the Northeast of here. In the depths of those catacombs, you will find the portal to the Deep Guruk Caverns."

Turning in a Falatacot Medallion You give Gruuk'lar Engraved Falatacot Medallion. Gruuk'lar looks the medallion over, sniffing at it. Gruuk'lar tells you, "There is strange magic on this. I will send it to our Shaman, and see what they can learn from it.  Thank you.  It is a clue, and with it, we may be able to track down more information." Gruuk'lar tells you, "Take this." You've earned 48,300,000 experience. Gruuk'lar declares you an ally of the Ruuk.
