Hi there,

first of all thanks for the great guide!
I'm not sure if you want to keep it up-to-date, but just in case I'd like to let you know the following:

The reward buff ("The Awakening") for successfully completing the instance has been updated several times.
Latest version is from patch 18.5.2 and can be found at AO Items: https://aoitems.com/item/281334/

The buff now has more modifiers than mentioned in the guide here.

Furthermore I have been told that also nodrop Xan symbs (like thigh) are available in this instance. I have no confirmation on this yet, but if you have, you might want to include this information in the guide as well.

Finally, if you are looking for support, I'd be glad to assist you in maintaining or writing guides.

Thanks and best regards
Mav
It's all about fun. :D

We're always looking for up to date information, for sure :)

With so many guides it's impossible to make sure they all have current information. You guys are our best source of knowing when something has changed, so we encourage update posts like this wholeheartedly. Direct information from something you've seen yourself is always best, but we can test out the things that fall in to the category of "this may have changed, but not 100% sure".

We always give credit where it is due, so keep it coming when you find things :top:

I confirm that the thigh and Ear now drop in 12man, they're both NODROP, but can still be got from the quests as normal...

'Weapon Upgrade', 'Xan Ocular Symbiant, Control Unit Beta' and 'Xan Thigh Symbiant, Control Unit Beta' still need adding to the guide.
'Xan Defense Merit Board Base' and 'Xan Offense Merit Board Base' also drop here.

Thank you Maverick86 and Snakebite!

I have updated this guide with the following changes:
  • Added the Xan Weapon Upgrade Device to the loot table, with a link to the guide on how to use it.
  • Added Xan Combat Merit Board Base and Xan Defense Merit Board Base to the loot table.
  • I have removed the (outdated) listing of buffs from The Awakening, and instead added an item link.
I have not personally seen 'Xan Ocular Symbiant, Control Unit Beta' drop yet, so I have not added it yet. I do fully expect the information to be true though and will update the guide again when I do the instance again and see it drop.

The guide for Alpha spirits mentions that the leg and ear beta spirits drop in 12 man, but the 12 man guide does not mention it.
