Time Piece - Rose

Introduced in v9.5, all Time Piece (aka Time Paradox) missions come in 2 versions - normal and broken. You can select which type in the room creation window. Broken Time Piece mission is easier, but rewards less crystals from its roulette.

This raid mission is mainly for collecting Strata Devil Weapon materials and for making Evil Weapons (ATK Rating 34) - dagger, main-gauche, or cannon.

It is also needed for Piece of Rose (quest item) in Recruit Ion quests. You must be alive and near the boss when she dies to acquire the quest item.

Mission Information
Location: Viron (E7)
Frequency: 2/day
Duration: 60 minutes
Participants: 1-12
Entry Cost: Free (1/day), 200 Shiny Crystals (2/day)
Requirement: Must have [Time Crystal] Rose quest to receive roulette reward.

In v23.63.43, you can redo the mission by paying 200 Shiny Crystals. The maximum number of participants for Time Piece missions was reduced from 24 to 12.

A tank is recommended for this raid mission. Rio's buffs are also useful against Soltiegus. Use fire element users (e.g. Ludin) as the bosses have high non-fire RES. A dispel team is not necessary, but can still help with sealing off the monsters' area attacks.


A. Start Point
The mission starts here. Leave any mule or alternate family here to anchor the mission.


B. Corridor
Kill the Great Mandradoras and the Hornets. The tank should provoke the Hornets. Great Mandradoras are immobile, so they can be killed safely by shooting and magic attackers.

HP 2,898,000 • ATK Rating 75 • ATK 65,340 • DEF Rating 68 • DEF 187

C. Soltiegus & Reapers

There is a sleeping girl (NPC) here. Once ready, the tank can click on her until she spawns Soltiegus. This mini-boss deals mental damage, so use [Magic Barrier] + [Spell Break Rhythm] + [Maestoso] + [Con Impeto]. Once the tank has secured her, the dispel team (if any) can move in from behind to use [Whole Cancellation] on Soltiegus.

Soltiegus • Lv.135 Demon • Soft Armor • Fire • Medium
HP 40,890,000 • ATK Rating 78 • ATK 31,806 • DEF Rating 74 • DEF 279
Penetration 0 • Magic Penetration - Fire 10, Ice 0, Lightning 0, Mental 0

Penetration 100 • Magic Penetration - Fire 0, Ice 0, Lightning 0, Mental 0
Immunity 30 • RES - Fire 40, Ice 80, Lightning 80, Mental 80

As her HP reduces, Soltiegus will summon 3 waves of Wandering Spirits. If the Wandering Spirits are not attacked, they will despawn after killing all the characters of the target family. If the tank has provoked too many spirits, attackers should help to clear them off by using area attacks. Once Soltiegus is dead, two grim reapers will appear immediately on the spot. Use [Protection Field] on the tank, if needed.

The Harvester • Lv.130 Undead • Heavy Armor • None • Medium
HP 19,320,000 • ATK Rating 77 • ATK 141,750 • DEF Rating 67 • DEF 270

Penetration 80 • Magic Penetration - Fire 0, Ice 0, Lightning 0, Mental 0
Immunity 0 • RES - Fire 70, Ice 90, Lightning 90, Mental 98

D. Demonic Hydradons

This area has some Demonic Hydradons. If the tank is luring the boss back to area C, some of them may follow behind. Attackers should kill them first, if any.

Demonic Hydradon • Lv.125 Wildlife • Soft Armor • None • Medium
HP 9,112,500 • ATK Rating 62 • ATK 78,300 • DEF Rating 62 • DEF 166
Penetration 0 • Magic Penetration - Fire 0, Ice 30, Lightning 0, Mental 0
Immunity 0 • RES - Fire 27, Ice 57, Lightning 57, Mental 57

E. Rose the Heart
The boss - Rose the Heart - waits here. The tank can lure her back to area C, where the rest of the squad awaits. Use [Protection Field] on the tank, if needed. Once the tank has secured her, the dispel team can move in from behind to use [Whole Cancellation] on her.

Rose, The Heart • Lv.135 Wildlife • Soft Armor • None • Small
HP 53,157,000 • ATK Rating 80 • ATK 77,841 • DEF Rating 74 • DEF 302
Penetration 80 • Magic Penetration - Fire 0, Ice 0, Lightning 0, Mental 0
Immunity 50 • RES - Fire 55, Ice 90, Lightning 90, Mental 98

As her HP reduces, Rose the Heart will speak: Blossom, a red rose!, and summon Black Roses around the area. Each Black Rose has a green gauge bar. When the bar is full, each Black Rose will spawn Rose the Spirit. All damage dealers should then stop hitting Rose the Heart, and prioritize killing the Black Roses to prevent the appearance of Rose the Spirits.

Black Rose • Lv.120 Wildlife • Soft Armor • None • Medium
HP 1,716,000 • ATK Rating 62 • ATK • DEF Rating 62 • DEF 84
Penetration 0 • Magic Penetration - Fire 0, Ice 0, Lightning 0, Mental 0
Immunity 0 • RES - Fire 90, Ice 90, Lightning 90, Mental 100

Rose, The Spirit • Lv.125 Wildlife • Soft Armor • Mental • Small
HP 911,249 • ATK Rating 72 • ATK 38,432 • DEF Rating 68 • DEF 326
Penetration 0 • Magic Penetration - Fire 0, Ice 0, Lightning 0, Mental 30
Immunity 50 • RES - Fire 55, Ice 90, Lightning 90, Mental 98

If the squad cannot kill all the Black Roses, you can also make use of the AI patterns of Rose the Spirits to leave them around the corners of area E. After killing all the nearby characters (if any), Rose the Spirits will always move towards Rose the Heart. If the tank lures Rose the Heart away before Rose the Spirits come close, the latter will just stop there at the boss' previous spot since nobody is within their provoke ranges.

Therefore, the tank can lure Rose the Heart back to a corner in area E, once the Black Roses spawn. Attackers move back to area A and wait. Once Rose the Spirits move towards the boss, the tank lures Rose the Heart around area E to avoid them, and then back to area C. The attackers can then return to hit Rose the Heart. Once Black Roses spawn again, repeat but lure Rose the Heart to a different corner of area E, since the previous corner will be occupied by the previous wave of Rose the Spirits. For recommended spots on the map to leave the spirits, see GE副本~時間的謬論之玫瑰.

Reward
Rose the Heart may drop White Gold Bars, Lv.92/96/100/Veteran Enchantment Chips, Lv.92 Elite Equipment, Lv.96 Elite Weapon (rare), Lv.100 Elite Weapon (rare), Le Noir, Pieces of Naraka, and 1-3 of each Mantara's Strata Devil Weapon materials (e.g. Root of Mantara). The roulette will spin immediately upon the death of the boss for players with [Time Crystal] Rose quest.

Roulette Reward	Broken	Normal	Rate
Portable Ancient Star Orb Box (10,000)	1	1	1.5%
Time Crystal: Rose	1	1-3	5.5%
Time Crystal: Rose	2	4-5	92.0%
Time Crystal: Rose	3	6-7	1.0%

In v23.63.43, the boss drops only 1-5 Root, Skin, and Fruit of Mantara.

Once the boss is dead, roulette chest will appear where the boss first appears. Broken Time Piece mission rewards 1-4 Time Crystals, while normal Time Piece mission rewards 2-8 Time Crystals. Portable Ancient Star Orb Box has also been removed from the roulette. Bonus roulette costs 1,500,000 Vis. The amount of Time Crystals required to make Evil Weapon has been reduced from 600 to 150.
