Mission:The Wheel of Destruction - Prevent the Banished Pantheon from completing the ritual

Prevent the Banished Pantheon from completing the ritual

Briefing

We have to recover those relic pieces the Banished Pantheon stole from MAGI. Otherwise, they'll assemble the Wheel of Destruction and empower it!

MAGI's seers have pinpointed the location where the Pantheon is trying to empower the pieces, under the direction of a cultist called Archos. I'm counting on you to prevent the Banished Pantheon from completing this ritual, Character.

You only have 90 minutes to stop the ritual.

Mission Acceptance

According to my sources, the ritual is taking place in the old Shady Pines Graveyard. I've called for an emergency force field to lock the situation down until you arrive. The Pantheon may have already empowered the pieces of the Wheel of Destruction, but the assembly should take a while. To stop them, all you need to do is find one piece of the Wheel of Destruction.

You're going to have to take the train to get there. Go to any train station and select Shady Pines Graveyard as your destination.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You've got to stop the ritual to empower the Wheel of Destruction!

Mission Objective(s)

You feel the presence of powerful otherworld entities looking down on you. Banished Pantheon missions always give you the creeps.

• Defeat Archos and his coven - 1:30 timed
  • Close portal, 4 artifact pieces to find

You have succeeded in stopping the ritual. You now possess all the pieces of the Wheel of Destruction.
