Battle walkthrough
1.You 1st see a Silent Surveillant in the map center. He has a weak but large AOE attack but can still damage you greatly like being poisoned or burned, if your HP and lv is low, better let the pros handle him.
NOTE : The Silent Protector does not drop anything nor EXP, SP and Gold. But if you dun kill him you won't see the bull bosses.

SPECIAL TIPS : this guy attacks only if anyone went near it to attack. Pose a big trouble for others trying to help cuz if any one use close range attacks like Nu Pi, Ye Chou, Chan Song and Fon Chi. It will unlease the AOE lightning attack. Although weak damage but it damage you continuously like poison and burn. To kill it effectively you must use ranged attacks. DO NOT step near till you touch the boss or everyone will have a shock of their lives. You dun wanna have a bunch of fried and angry comrades beating you to a pulp.

2.Split into 2 groups when the Silent Surveillant dies. Minotaur and Balla Wisp guards will appear all aroung the place. Group A (main power attackers) remain in the center and Group B must lure the guard mobs away from the map center. After 5~10 seconds, group A must be prepare to fight the Icy Minotaur and Flamming Minotaur.

3.Separate the 2 Minotaurs as far away from each other as possible and group B must quickly clear off the guard mobs ASAP. The 2 Minotaurs have part of the Great Minotaur's power which makes them to be as equally powerful as the Spirit Protector. Without real JJ and other special defence skills, you'll always kiss floor in one hit. If both minotaurs are too close, their combine attack can send everyone to their grave fast. Unlike Spirit Protector's one hit kills, the minotaur minibosses harms much less but still painfull.

4.Defeat one of the Minotaurs quick and then all gather your powers to kill the other one.

5.After defeating both Minotaur bosses, player get a lot of EXP, SP and Gold. Now if you have Bank open scroll, this is your time to use it cuz the main battle is about to begin!!


The Final Battle
1.After the 2 minotaurs are dead, the annoying guard mobs will appear again. Split into two groups like before and now wait for the Great Minotaur to make his grand entrance 5~10 seonds later.

2.Sweep clean the guard mobs quickly and now do your best to kill him together. No time for any useless arguments, just kill kill kill!!

3.If succeeded in killing the Great Minotaur, prepare to enjoy more EXP, SP and Gold drops. If lucky, some rare items that are only dropped by The great Minotaur will be yours when you open the treasure chests (like the Spirit Protector's quest reward ending). For drops, see Boss topic part 1, at the bottom of the post.
