A Dark Temptation

Expert Tiered.

To start this quest, you must have completed "Know the Ends of your Roots.", "Crop Circling" and "Feud between Tribes", as well as 65 Digging, 70 Planting, 55 Divality and 60 Stamina.
 * 1) Talk to the Sage near the entrance to Darzukoon City and ask him what is wrong. He will then say the demon Kellos is interfering with his thoughts and is starting to turn hostile and will ask you to help him snap out of it. He will then ask you to gather some Nightleaches. Ask him why he will need them and he will say that the juice of the Nightleaches removes negativity after drinking it.
 * 2) There will be some Nightleach Crawlers near by that are level 50. Kill at a minimum of 5, as Nightleachs have a 50% drop rate from them.
 * 3) After collecting at least 5 Nightleaches give them to the Sage and then a cutscene will play where the sage will attack you. It is recommended to use ranged as he mostly deals with magic. It is wise to bring either a Hellring Bow or Mezeor Bow for quick damage.
 * 4) Once he is defeated, a cutscene will play that will show you, Kellos has already imbued his energy into his brain and that you will need to work fast.
 * 5) Next you will need to gather Black Slime Droplets from Black Slimes, Black Slimes are level 45 and are weak to Ash or Aura based damage. Black Slimes are found near Utren and Naveska. You will need at least 10 of them.
 * 6) Once you collect the Black Slime Droplets, the sage will then teleport you inside his mind when they are ready.
 * 7) Once ready, say yes and he will teleport you into his mind. His mind is a literal maze full of Black Slimes(Level 45), Kellos Spores(Lv 60) and Ancient Demons(Level 185). Avoid the Ancient Demons if you think you aren't ready as they deal heavy damage and cast a heavy Chronic based spell. If you want to fight them, bring a Master's Timewatch with you to reduce the Chronic damage.
 * 8) In the maze, go north, south, south, east, west, north, south, west. This will bring you to the first "Chained Hatred" which is level 100. You will need to defeat another 3 of these to free the sage. It is recommended you use either melee or magic on the "Chained Hatred"s as they have high ranged resistance. If you plan on using magic, go with Ash or Aura based spells. If you plan on using melee, equip yourself in Platinum or Xeldonic.
 * 9) After defeating the first "Chained Hatred", a cutscene will play showing that the Sage is regaining control. After the cutscene, head out of the chamber and you will end up in a second maze. To get to the next "Chained Hatred", go North, West, West, West, East, South, North. There's a prize waiting at a different path for those who have 70 Divality. To get this prize, go North, West, West, and instead of going west again go South.
 * 10) When you defeat the 2nd "Chained Hatred", another cutscene will play as Kellos enters his mind more now sending "Kellos Flameknights" at you. They are level 87 and deal heavy Ash based damage. It is wise to carry a Master's Kindlebox to reduce the damage. After handling the 3 "Kellos Flameknights" exit the chamber and go North, North, East, West, West, South, North, East to find the 3rd "Chained Hatred". This time the "Chained Hatred" will have an Ancient Demon and a Kellos Flameknight guarding it. Start with the Ancient Demon first, use ranged on the Ancient Demon and keep an eye on your health. After focus on the Kellos Flameknight by using magic. Then finally resort to your methods from the last 2 "Chained Hatred"s.
 * 11) Another cutscene will play where Kellos loses his mind and sends one of the toughest monsters you will fight yet. A "Cataract Warlock". The "Cataract Warlock" is level 193 and deals insanely heavy Void damage. Do NOT use melee on it as it will ruin your life if you do. Use either Magic or Ranged on it and keep an eye on your health. If it says "Join the Cataclysm!", it will spawn 3 black holes that will do HEAVY damage if you stay within 1 square of their area. They will spawn in different locations so keep that in mind.
 * 12) After defeating the "Cataract Warlock", exit the chamber and go South, South, East, North, East, West, South to the final "Chained Hatred". The "Chained Hatred" will then turn into a "Chained Hatred Supreme" which will be level 150 and have a high magic resistance as well. Use melee on this one and keep in mind that it will now exhale a breath that deals heavy Shadow based damage. After defeating the "Chained Hatred Supreme", you will be teleported outside of his mind.
 * 13) Talk to the Sage again and he will reward you for your efforts. Quest done!
 * 14) Rewards= Ability to use Igthyl equipment and weapons, 7 Quest Credits, 40,000 Divality Xp Potion, 25,000 Magic Xp Potion and 15 Igthyl Ores.
