Overview

This version of MQSC (Mount Qinkai Speed Clear) uses 8 Dervishes in order to farm Luxon faction at Mount Qinkai in Hard Mode from Aspenwood Gate. Faction rewards are roughly 10k per run and averages 3-6 minutes depending on the teams skill level(current best run is 2 minutes). MQSC allows you to earn an average of 120k Luxon Faction per hour. Groups are now normally formed in guilds and alliances only. These builds are the current meta being used by the top Luxon faction farmers, and allows for easy merging with non-SC players as well as the old MQSC team if desired or needed. Party members will split into 4 seperate main routes, each with their own specific duties, and all will use the same build.

Equipment

Armor

• Full Windwalker Insignias.
  • Blessed Insignias can be substituted until you can afford the others, or if the trader is out of stock.
• +50 hp rune.
  • Can be substituted for +30 or +41 until you can afford a +50.
• +1 Earth Prayers head piece with a +3 earth prayers rune.
• +2 Wind prayers, +1 mysticism rune, and +2 energy rune.

Weapons

• Enchanting martial weapon and shield with +45 w/e.
• Zealous and Vampiric scythe of enchanting with +15% while enchanted.
• Longbow incase groups need pulling.

Consumables

• Conset for the whole team.
• Cupcake required for anyone interacting with naga.
• All other pcons (Golden Egg, Candy Corn, Candy Apple, Slice of Pumpkin Pie, War Supplies) are highly recommended to make things more consistent and faster.
• Summoning stone, preferably legionnaire, for beach derv its recomended if they have to do beach solo as the warrior boss will take very long without.

Usage

• Maintain Sand Shards at all times, making sure to allow you to use it as soon as it ends during a spike and for enchantment fuel.
• Maintain Mirage Cloak only during combat.
• Use Mystic Regen before beginning to aggro a group.
• Yeti Specific:
  • Ball by pulling, usually against a wall.
  • Use IAU if you ever get cripple while balling, or as soon as you jump in to help with tankiness and to make sure you are not crippled after a spike.
  • Use Standard, Grenth's Aura, and VoS after jumping in.
  • If you are blinded, try to hit the spirit first. Never attack bosses directly until forced to.
• Wallow and Oni Specific:
  • IAU during combat always. If 4 group/pop, ball them or one will scatter.
  • Chance to KD you with auto attacks.
• Wallow Specific:
  • Island Guardian groups do not move, use IAU before aggro/Death's Charging in, and always attack the Island Guardian directly until it is dead or it will cast healing seed.
  • Do not pull more than one group at a time, but can pull a single group into the Island Guardian, but be careful if it is a 4 group plus double Wallow with Guardian group.
• Naga Specific:
  • You must speedboost ball them, and use IAU then Death's Charge.
  • Use Standard as soon as you jump in followed by Grenth's Aura and VoS. Sometimes you will still get rupted on Standard but it is okay.
  • Focus Rits, then Warriors, as Rangers will block you. Attacking spirits is also good.

Low Man / Tactic Merging

Dervway with less than 8 players

• If you are in situations where you are doing this without a full team, here is how the breakdown usually works:
  • One person does Ranger/Rit yetis as well as cave.
  • One person does all of beach, including the cleanup part.
  • One person does all of wallows.
  • One person does all of lake.
• As you work your way down in amount of people on the run, you can even split it by doing 1 person does all of yetis and wallows, and one person does all of beach and lake.
• You can also even have one person clear half of the map (whichever the players prefer) with 6 heroes, and a single derv do the other half, which will balance out 50/50.

Dervway and Old Meta Merge

• This is also easily merged with the old meta way.
• By simply adding one derv to a role, it frees up multiple slots for the rest of the team, or lowering needed people total.
  • One derv can do all of yetis alone and the rest of the team can take more for wallows and beach, for example.

• MQSC Luxon FFF Old Meta Here
  • This has been used for many years, and still can be used to this day. However due to it being slower and not as many players, it is either not used or merged with current meta derv splits.
  • It is cheaper consumable wise, and less difficult for pure beginners.
