Right, the quest for the Atlatl came first, in Evolution, followed by this quest the next month. We can easily split it up into two separate quests. --Widgeon 18:54, 19 July 2008 (CDT)

I think this should be divided up, at least into two quests. One quest for the eyeslayers (Monouga Feeding Pits) and one for the logs (Monouga Laboratory). They are really two different things. The feeding pits/eyeslayer was added a patch or two before the logs, and its not necessary to spawn the monouga/get the ribs to complete the log quest. --An Adventurer 18:23, 19 July 2008 (CDT)

Heh, it's pretty crazy. When I looked at this quest I decided to start with the lowest level one, since it should have been easiest. Oops. Thick spawns on a fast respawn timer. I ended up sending my mage (level 230) down there and using fire rings to clear the area. I even killed the big monouga down there once. I'm just glad the other two aren't as bad, although I bet they could still be challenging if you tried to kill everything. --Widgeon 13:50, 18 July 2008 (CDT)

Whoever balanced the 80+ dungeon was on crack. That place is insane. --Tlosk 10:18, 18 July 2008 (CDT)

140+

Ok, the first left for 140. Got that. Why don't the level ranges on this entry match. 140 for first left, but 150+ for quest?

Tried to do the 140+ with 3 mages one UA'd. Mage 200,200,180 and UA 178. No maps once you hit the red dungeon part, so it's very easy to lose your orientation. Insane kill times on the mobs, if you pause 30 seconds after clearing a hallway hub, you WILL be covered in respawn you just cleared. On Solclaim it's nothing but bodies in the first 50 feet, people who obviously got the same misdirection from the wiki that I did. This is not possible to do without 3 years of augmentations, 275's or a full group, or some combination. It's ridiculous.

My Experience at lvl 134-135 melee (12th March 2012)

  • RUN 1: Tried solo running the +80 part. Failed once and died after finding many mobs (Virindi and Shadows/Shades) in the tunnel blocking the way past.
  • RUN 2: Tried a second run solo but this time to take out mobs as i go. I got almost to my corpse and had to port out due to many mobs respawning behind aswell as the mobs infront i yet had to face.
  • RUN 3: Gained help from a level ~230 (mage) alliance friend. He had to stop and aoe nuke many times enroute and found his HP drop below 50% on a few occassions. Eventually got to my corpse and finished the quest. 63 million xp (on 50% bonus xp weekend). Wasnt worth it! :(

Side Note: There was at least a dozen player corpses down there. So i changed the wikii to warn people of the risk of trying to run this solo if under level 200.

The Update History section from the article states the following:

  • XP reward for Olthoi Experiment Log increased from 48,724,715 (15% up to level 150) to ??.
  • XP reward for Monouga Experiment Log increased from 1,017,135,420 (30% up to level 256) to to 1,017,135,420 (40% up to level 256).
  • Repeat XP reward for Monouga Experiment Log increased from 508,567,710 (15% up to level 275) to 1,017,135,420 (40% up to level 256).

It makes no mention of the Tusker rewards, or the Olthoi repeat rewards changing. Also, it is incorrect - 30% up to level 256 is 779,361,051.


Base on all this information, it appears that the original rewards were:

  • 80+/Tusker first time:
    41,346,375 (30% up to level 120) assumed based on 30%/15%
  • 80+/Tusker repeat:
    20,673,187 (15% up to level 120) verified reward
  • 120+/Olthoi first time:
    97,449,429 (30% up to level 150) verified reward
  • 120+/Olthoi repeat:
    48,724,714 (15% up to level 150) verified reward
  • 150+/Monouga first time:
    1,017,135,420 (30% up to level 274) verified reward
  • 150+/Monouga repeat:
    508,567,710 (15% up to level 274) assumed based on 30%/15%

Learning From Experience Rewards

The first edit after this patch states:

Experience was boosted from 30 to 40% of level in Learning From Experience patch. No change to cap so maximum experience is reached at earlier level. Repeat runs also given boost from 15% to 40%.

And it lists the following rewards:

  • 150+/Monuga first time:
    1,017,135,420 (40% up to level 256)
  • 150+/Monuga first time:
    1,017,135,420 (40% up to level 256)

  • 120+/Olthoi repeat:
    116,450,000* - states this is 30% up to 150, and repeats are fixed (?)
    (*)This was found with chars 120+. There appears to be a cutoff somewhere. Liao Chan would not give give the gems directly to a lvl 67 char, but when the lvl 67 ran the quest the reward was ~85% next lvl xp.
