==Overview==


== Directions ==
'''Location:''' Just south of King's Feast; east of [[City of the Plume]].<br>
'''Wine:''' Chiennan Spring (x2)


The entrance to Secret Frostcover Grounds is found south of, and very close to, [[King's Feast]]. Both are east of the [[City of the Plume]].
The ''Valley of Disaster'' is really a network of 7 valleys radiating from a central platform, much like the spokes of a wheel. There is one valley for each of the 5 elements, one as the entrance, and one for an NPC.


==Map==

Each gate has a gatekeeper in front of it. However killing one (and opening the gate behind it) despawns the rest of the gatekeepers. Whichever gate you open, that becomes your starting path.

For the rest of the gates, you have to kill the boss in the path prior to it in clockwise order. So from wherever you begin, you have to do the paths in clockwise order from there, killing each boss.  The boss order (starting at the first gate on your left as you enter) is:
==Doors/Guards==
:Killing <span style="color:silver">Zimo</span> opens the <span style="color:green">wood wing to Ofotis</span>.

== Minimap ==
There is a guard at the entrance to each of the elemental valleys. Killing this mob will "waken" the boss at the end of the valley. The guards only have melee attacks, so if you attack at range, you won't get hit.


[[Image:FB59-minimap.png]]
Previously, these guards would open doors that were at the beginning of these valleys. Once the first guard was killed, the remaining guards would disappear. Killing the boss at the end of the valley would open the next door (going clockwise in a circle).


== Bosses ==
The doors no longer exist and the remaining guards no longer vanish once the first is killed.
<br><br>


All of the bosses in the Valley of Disaster have ranged magical attacks of the magic type that matches their valley, and it is of the same strength as their physical attacks.  In fact, all of the bosses are basically equally tough, varying only in their magical strengths & weaknesses.  They will continue to use ranged magic attacks unless someone with aggro is in melee range.
==Bosses==


This means that the bosses in Valley of Disaster can be potentially tanked by arcane armor wearers using ranged attacks when their defense for that element is better than anyone else's physical defense (assuming that they have an average amount of HP or better.)  The bosses are also strong in their element and weak to their opposition element.  This means that, for example, a venomancer (not her pet, the venomancer herself) with decent equipment and HP might be a better tank against Gluttonix (the earth element boss) because he will be weak to wood magic, which is a venomancer specialty, making her better able to keep aggro as well.
There are five bosses in the ''Valley of Disaster''.
 
All bosses have a ranged magic attack and a physical melee attack.  Most bosses can be range-tanked by magic classes at level 75+ for the Bounty Hunter quests if they have a high level of magic defense for the boss and decent HP.


===Zimo===
===Zimo===
[[Image:Zimo.png]]


Zimo is a spider lady, who has both a physical and a ranged attack.  She wanders around on top of a hill. She is very fast, so care should be taken when pulling her if you don't have a veno to do that.

Zimo is the guardian of the metal valley.
 
'''The Battle'''


Like all the bosses in 59 she will stay at range and use her magic attack, which has a slow and obvious channel, unless you walk right up to her - but she won't try to kite you.
Zimo wanders back and forth across a hill. It is advised that you [[Venomancer Luring|lure]] her down to fight. She has a fairly hard hitting metal magic attack.

Qianji is primarily annoying because she starts in a patch of water - which is deep enough that you can get the damage reduction effect. Luring her out of the water is recommended.

'''The Battle'''
 
The only thing of note for this fight is that Qianji starts in a pool of water. Make sure that when you attack her, you are not considered by the game to be "in water" (about knee-deep or deeper in the water). If you are, you will suffer damage reduction and the fight will take much longer. It's recommended you pull the boss over to the strip of land on the side, next to the pillar.

Overview[edit]

Doors/Guards[edit]

There is a guard at the entrance to each of the elemental valleys. Killing this mob will "waken" the boss at the end of the valley. The guards only have melee attacks, so if you attack at range, you won't get hit.

Previously, these guards would open doors that were at the beginning of these valleys. Once the first guard was killed, the remaining guards would disappear. Killing the boss at the end of the valley would open the next door (going clockwise in a circle).

The doors no longer exist and the remaining guards no longer vanish once the first is killed.

Bosses[edit]

There are five bosses in the Valley of Disaster.

All bosses have a ranged magic attack and a physical melee attack. Most bosses can be range-tanked by magic classes at level 75+ for the Bounty Hunter quests if they have a high level of magic defense for the boss and decent HP.
