The Talos of Stone is a 40-player Open Raid encounter available during the Anniversary Event in Agartha.
Tier 1
Task Description
Gaia forms elemental constructs to test and reward her champions, but something went wrong... and the hulking automaton turned deadly. Fortunately, you helped bring this corrupted Talos down before it could cause undue harm. Now claim your reward.
Objective: Collect your reward
Upon defeating the Stone Talos, the raid mission The Talos of Stone will be applied to all participants in the instance. Within seconds of receiving the mission, it automatically completes.
Defeating the Stone Talos gives the buff Anima Surge, which allows a player to open a [Buzzing Hive] during its 10 minute duration. Only one [Buzzing Hive] can be opened per Anima Surge effect.
Agartha will expel players from the raid instance shortly after defeating the Stone Talos within. Removal from the instance is staggered to reduce server lag, so some players will be teleported out first and others may have to wait a few seconds to leave the instance.
The Talos of Stone gives a [Genizah of Stone] upon turn-in. In addition, it rewards 1 [Animated Particulate] for First-Time Completion. This mission has a 30-minute cooldown.
For more information on the contents of Buzzing Hives, the Genizah of Stone, Animated Particulates, the Talos of Gaia, or the Anniversary Event itself, see our Anniversary Event Guide!
General Information
The Stone Talos
The Immaculate Machine has initiated the education protocols, desiring to teach Her bees how to best protect Her. Unfortunately for the bees, something has corrupted all of the Talos of Gaia that have been created for teaching purposes, including the Stone Talos.
The Stone Talos is one of the 40-player Open Raid encounters accessible in Agartha through the Vibrant Agartha instance, which will always contain 1 Talos of Gaia raid boss out of a total of 11 different Talos of Gaia raid bosses found within Vibrant Agartha. Every hour at 00:02 minutes past the hour, the portal to Vibrant Agartha becomes active for 10 minutes. While bosses inside may last after that period of time, no more may enter to face a Talos once those 10 minutes have passed. An instance of Vibrant Agartha will close 30 minutes after the first player has entered that instance regardless of whether or not the Talos of Gaia is engaged in combat.
The Talos of Gaia present within Vibrant Agartha rotates every hour.
There are no level requirements necessary to enter and face the Stone Talos. A player only needs to have met Jack Boone in Kingsmouth Town in order to participate in the raid.
Vibrant Agartha
The portal to Vibrant Agartha can be found between the Agartha Pad to the Training Grounds and the Transylvania region just outside of the Hollowed Halls (550,250). It is festively decorated with balloons, piñatas, and streamers.
Equal Footing
Players within Vibrant Agartha are buffed with Equal Footing so that their stats are scaled evenly regardless of their level or item power.
Abilities and Mechanics
106286032 HP
Immune to CC
The Stone Talos is permanently immune to Stuns, Knock Downs, Obstruction, Roots, and Snares.
Rock Clash
The Stone Talos leaps up into the air and slams its great fists down in a Rock Clash centered on a target within 7 meters of the Talos. The Rock Clash is a 360 degree GTAoE with a 7 meter radius and a 4 second cast time and 10 second recast time. Rock Clash is initially cast 3 seconds after engaging the Stone Talos in combat, with subsequent casts adhering to the 10 second recast time.
The Rock Clash of the Talos of Stone deals a small amount of physical damage to anyone hit by it.
VISUAL BUG: The Stone Talos does not animate while casting Rock Clash and therefore the only indications of this spell being cast is through the cast bar of the Stone Talos and the GTAoE visual on the Stone Talos' target.
Seismic Wave
In its fury, the Stone Talos smashes its fists into the ground in front of it to create a Seismic Wave. The Seismic Wave is a 180 degree PBAoE in a frontal cone with a 15 meter radius that has a 2 second cast time and a 15 second recast time.
A total maximum of 5 players hit by Seismic Wave will receive a large amount of physical damage and be Knocked Down and unable to act for 3 seconds. The knock away of Knocked Down is subject to Diminishing Returns and will be weaker on subsequent afflictions of Knocked Down within a short 14 second timeframe.
