Skirmish

Skirmish
Skirmish is a new instanced battleground added in the Seekers of Adoulin expansion.

Requirements

 * Level 95 or higher
 * 3-6 party members
 * Party leader must have a Simulacrum in his/her possession
 * Enter from either Rala Waterways (B-6, Augural Conveyor) or Cirdas Caverns (H-3, Augural Conveyor)

Building a Simulacrum

 * Collect three Simulacra segments (Visage, Torso, Legs)
 * Turn in one of each of these segments to Oston in Eastern Adoulin (G-8) and he will assemble them into a completed Simulacrum.

Simulacra Segments

 * As of now, the following are confirmed ways of obtaining Simulacra Segments:
 * Reward from a Colonization Reive
 * Soul Pyres
 * Reward from completing a Coalition Task
 * Mining/Harvesting/Logging
 * They can also be bought or sold through Bazaars or the Auction House


 * Visage (These determine the zone for the Skirmish as well as the quality of rewards)
 * Rala Visage I
 * Rala Visage II
 * Rala Visage III
 * Rala Visage IV
 * Rala Visage V


 * Cirdas Visage I
 * Cirdas Visage II
 * Cirdas Visage III
 * Cirdas Visage IV
 * Cirdas Visage V


 * Torso (These determine the size of the area, the maximum time limit, the maximum number of enemies to defeat, and number of rewards)
 * Faithful’s Torso I
 * Faithful’s Torso II
 * Faithful’s Torso III
 * Faithful’s Torso IV
 * Faithful’s Torso V


 * Legs (These affect the number of Noetic Ascensions and type of effects bestowed by them. these give a single beneficial effect to all party members. The effect can be selected from a list when examining the Noetic Ascension.
 * Faithful’s Legs I
 * Faithful’s Legs II
 * Faithful’s Legs III
 * Faithful’s Legs IV
 * Faithful’s Legs V

The Battle
A skirmish will last from 30-60 minutes. (This will depend on what tier of Faithful Torso you use) There will be two objectives per Skirmish. Completing the first objective will give everyone a Fenestral Key temporary item. Using this item will end the Skirmish and reset the time remaining to five minutes and reraise all members. This time would be used to lot items that appear in the party lot pool as well as obtain your own personal treasure from the coffer that pops.


 * Rala Waterways Skirmish
 * Objective 1: Defeat a certain amount of NMs
 * Objective 2: Defeat more NMs! (less than objective 1)


 * Cirdas Caverns Skirmish
 * Objective 1: Defeat a certain amount of monsters
 * Objective 2: Defeat more monsters! (less than objective 1)

Rewards
Some of the rewards from Skirmish include fairly decent “base” weapons, which can be further augmented by Divainy-Gamainy of the Inventors’ Coalition by trading the weapon along with a Ghastly Stone/+1/+2. The stones used to augment these weapons drop from Skirmish or can be obtained with Obsidian Fragments (which are a type of currency obtained from participating in Skirmish).

Other rewards include various synthesis materials, as well as magic scrolls.

Weapons + Augments NQ = Ghastly Stone HQ = Ghastly Stone +1 HQ2 = Ghastly Stone +2 Using one of these stones will give you random augments from that particular pool*
 * Weapons can be augmented as many times as you wish. You will be prompted whether you want to keep the new augment or previous one, similar to Synergy.**
