Notes[edit]

The Legendary Risen Priest of Melandru loses the ability to enter his second phase when the event has been repeated a certain number of times. This "counter" is reset whenever there is a game update or server maintenance.
The Legendary Priest that appears in the defense event doesnt actually attack the Aetheric Interrupter, instead he will walk in circles around the temple while the mobs are just standing near the Interrupter not doing anything then attacking players that get close.
