The Shimmering Effusion is the Peerless boss for the Prism of Light dungeon, which is located on the north end of the island on which the city of Nujel'M is located.

The Effusion can be killed solo. When acquiring the keys area peace is an asset.

Statistics

Abilities

• This is a medium fight. Spawns various creatures during the fight. Has a very high magery skill level. Drops Captured Essence, Crystal Ring, various ingredients, Shimmering Crystals, and more.

Tactics

• Always kill the summoned creatures first. They do not have high HP, but deal out bigger damage than the boss!! If you fail to kill the summoned creatures quickly the spawn might get out of hand. Barding skills help a lot. If too many creatures have spawned leave the main room through the red moon gate. Lure the spawn away from the teleporter tile and go back killing the spawn one by one. Beyond the red moon gate there is also an ankh. Be careful with the second moon gate: It leads out of the peerless room and there is no way back.

Keys

• Kill Crystal Daemons, Crystal Sea Serpents, Crystal Hydras, Crystal Vortexes, Crystal Lattice Seekers, and Unfrozen Mummy-ies to get 6 Crystal Keys.

Crystal Deamon: "scattered crystals"

Crystal Hydra: "shattered crystal"

Crystal Serpents: "crushed crystals"

Crystal Vortex: "jagged crystal”

Crystal Lattice Seeker: "crystal pieces"

Unfrozen Mummy: "broken crystals"

• The point at which you exchange the Crystals for the main keys is VERY deep in the dungeon. Demons and mummies have a high key drop rate. Hydras, Vortices and Lattice seekers have their keys less often. Usually the critical key is that of the Crystal Sea Serpents. They are easy to kill but do not have a high key drop rate. The keys are best made by a Bard.
• Do not be confused by the crystals that do not have timers. The untimed crystals are part of a quest and are the base ingredient for crystal dust. They are not Peerless keys.

Dropping Keys

In the unfrozen mummy room, there are six pillars. Each key must be dropped on the correct pillar, in the proper order. Stand near the middle of the top three pillars and invis. Drop the first three keys in order, and then do the same for the bottom three.

This is the order to drop:

Broken, Crushed, Pieces

Scattered, Jagged, Shattered

You will then be given the keys to enter and fight Shimmering Effusion.
