Is there any changes made after Big Bang for Ludibrium Party Quest?
- Stages changed. Stage 8 has changed into mathematics stage.
- Monsters and boxes don't drop tickets. Just kill all monsters or destroy boxes in each stage.
(Note: I don't know why Ratz still appear even though stage 1 is clear)

[PQ] Ludibrium PQ after Big Bang


You can enter the PQ via Mirror of Dimension:

You need to be at Level 30-200 to do the party quest.
Head to Ludibrium: Eos Tower 101st Floor and form a party of 3-6 members.

Note: Post-Big Bang, any characters above level 30 can do this PQ. Having a Cleric in your party is highly recommended for the boss fight. All-Cure potions are also highly recommended, as the battle with Alishar will occasionally leave your skills locked or your character being inflicted with the darkness effect.


Have your party leader click on Red Sign.


This PQ comprises of 

  1.     Stage 1
  2.     Stage 2
  3.     Stage 3
  4.     Stage 4
  5.     Stage 5
  6.     Stage 6
  7.     Stage 7
  8.     Rewards/Prizes 


Stage 1

Completion
All 26 Monsters Killed that are within the map.
  1. Eliminate all the Ratz from Another Dimension and Black Ratz from Another Dimension! Post-Big Bang, passes are no longer required to be picked up.
  2. Once they have all been defeated, click on the Red Balloon and head towards the portal.

Stage 2

Completion
10 passes required to finish this stage.
  1. Hit the blue boxes and collect the Dimensional Passes that drop from it. Post Big-Bang, anyone (party members and/or the leader) can hold the passes.
  2. Once all the passes have been collected (regardless of them being with the members or the leader), the leader should click on the Orange Balloon.
  3. Move into the portal to proceed to the next stage.

Stage 3

Required classes (Retired Option, No Longer Needed)
1 Magician, 1 Non-Magician
Completion
All 6 Monsters Killed.

Move through the portal into the darkness (Be sure to mark the portals you go through so you don't double it up). Do note that the top/bottom portals cannot be entered.

  1. Kill the monster that is in the darkness.
    2. Note: You can only attack them when their eyes are open. The two bottom portals contain monsters weak to physical attacks, and the three top portals contain monsters weak to magical attacks. One portal will have two monsters lurking inside.
  2. Once all monsters have been eliminated, the party leader should click on the Lime-Green Balloon.
  3. Head into the portal and move on to the next stage.

Stage 4

  1. In this stage, you will have to find the right combination of portals to reach the top.
  2. Jump onto a number and press up. If the number is correct, you will move up. But if you're wrong, you will be teleport-ed to the bottom.
  3. To make this easier, the combination is as follows: 133 221 333 123 111
  4. Head towards the portal to move on to the next stage.

Stage 5

  1. This stage is quite straightforward - simply kill all the 4 Rombots in the map.
  2. Talk to the balloon, then move into the portal once you have cleared the stage.

Stage 6

  1. Talk to the Blue Balloon.
  2. A maths equation will be given - solve it.
  3. Then stand on the boxes accordingly to indicate your answer, which will always be 3 digits.

The possible combinations are 
12345 12346 12347 12348 12349 12356 12357 12358 12359 12367 12368 12369 12378 12379 12389 12456 12457 12458 12459 12467 12468 12469 12478 12479 12489 12567 12568 12569 12578 12579 12589 12678 12679 12689 12789 13456 13457 13458 13459 13467 13468 13469 13478 13479 13489 13567 13568 13569 13578 13579 13589 13678 13679 13689 13789 14567 14568 14569 14578 14579 14589 14678 14679 14689 14789 15678 15679 15689 15789 16789 23456 23457 23458 23459 23467 23468 23469 23478 23479 23489 23567 23568 23569 23578 23579 23589 23678 23679 23689 23789 24567 24568 24569 24578 24679 24689 24789 25678 25679 25689 25789 26789 34567 34568 34569 34578 34579 34589 34678 34679 34689 34789 35678 35679 35689 35789 36789 45678 45679 45689 45789 46789 56789

  1. If there are only 3 members present and the leader is not in a position to click the balloon (i.e. second platform), then a platform puppy can be 'purchased' from the Sergeant to act as a member.
  2. Talk to the Blue Balloon, then move into the portal when the right answer has been found.

Stage 7

Post Big-Bang, Alishar will already be at its throne.

  1. Note: Beware of Chronos, Platoon Chronos and Master Chronos that Alishar may summon. Also beware of Alishar's seal and darkness skills. It's recommended that most of the spawn is killed before Alishar, or lower levelled party members may die when the treasure boxes pop-up appears.
  2. Once Alishar is killed, a treasure box pop-up will appear with 6 treasure boxes. Randomly choose one and you'll be allowed to choose 1 prize among 3 different prizes.
  3. Remember to pick up the Key Ring dropped by Alishar; then talk to the Purple Balloon to exit the stage.
Ludibrium PQ Boss 
 
Alishar
  • HP: 125000
  • MP: 2500
  • EXP: 4800 (shared)
Monsters Summoned By Alishar
 
Chronos, Platoon Chronos, Master Chronos
Required classes

Ranged hitter with maxed Keen eyes or Eye of Amazon(or a magician or a well hasted 2-handed weapon warrior will do), Cleric with maxed Heal highly recommended
Completion
Obtain Key Ring from Alishar


This is a very difficult and long boss fight. Having a Cleric in the party is very highly recommended.  

NOTE! : After Big Bang, Alishar's Stats have been altered and level 30 and higher can now join the PQ, making the Boss easier to kill.

 If the party members are all level 50 then it isn't required, as you can probably kill it in under a minute. A ranged person kills the Black Ratz to open the box and Alishar will spawn.

If there is a Cleric in the party, they should begin spamming heal.

Everyone else attacks the boss and tries to stay alive. Based on his health, the boss will spawn different types of Chronos. Near 3/4 HP he will spawn regular Chronos, at 1/2 HP he will spawn either Chronos or Platoon Chronos, and when he is near death, he will spawn Master Chronos along with Platoon and regular Chronos. Clerics are able to damage these with heal as well, though it will slow down their healing of party members. While fighting the boss, characters may be afflicted with various status ailments. Everyone will need either Eyedrops and Holy Water or only All-Cure potions. Mages don't have to worry about losing accuracy so they only need Holy Water, though All-Cure potions work as well. When he dies, he drops a Key Ring. The leader should pick that up, and talk to the Purple Balloons to exit.

    Rewards/Prizes

    The Bonus Stage has been removed post-Big Bang, and it has been replaced with a treasure box pop-up as indicated previously. Equipment gained can have a hidden Potential.




    Rewards:
    • Total of 20000-30300 experience


    Additionally, once you have completed this PQ 35 times, talk to the Red Stop Sign and you can obtain a pair of Broken Glasses.

    Summary
    A party of 3 to 6, ranging from levels 30 to 200, progresses through 6 stages in less than one hour by solving puzzles and killing monsters.
