(If Defend the etheropods and defeat breeze riders for Bluz event is active)
Tick green.png Tell me about Hydrone Unit.
Hydrone works on their water-powered golems just north of the arena. Try to hurry them up, if you go over there.
Talk end option tango.png Good-bye.
(If Help Chott collect opals for a prototype golem weapon event is active)
Tick green.png Tell me about Incinergen Labs.
I've heard they ready their fire-fueled golems near Wildflame Caverns. I bet you could still catch up with them.
Talk end option tango.png Okay.
(If Defend the RCK-7550 golem as it stores energy event is active)
Tick green.png Tell me about Terranexic.
The Terranexic's krewe's lab is in Soren Draa, but they prepare their golem near the arena. They imbue it with energy generated beneath the ground. It really gets this place shaking!
Talk end option tango.png Great.
(If Defend AER-0000 from Inquest as it gathers energy from Storm Cloud Generators event is active)
Tick green.png Tell me about Aeronotics Lab.
The Aeronotics krewe works alongside the Opticalum krewe, researching lightning energy. Their worksite is just past the Splorg Metamystics Lab. Their golem is absolutely electrifying in the arena.
Talk end option tango.png I see.
Talk more option tango.png Tell me about this place.
This is Battleground Plaza, where up-and-coming golemancers have their their[sic] mechanical creations duke it out. Golem VS. Golem! Krewes fight day and night to prove they're superior golemancers.
Talk more option tango.png The krewes fight here? How?
Each krewe brings its finest golem to battle in the arena. Whichever golem is still standing at fight's end is declared the victor. That krewe also wins the title of "superior golemancer!"
Talk more option tango.png Which krewes are involved in this?
Our regular contenders are Incinergen Labs, Aeronotics, Hydrone Unit, and Terranexic. Each krewe augments its golem with its own special power source. That's what makes these fights so interesting.
