Notes
- This event happens 1:30 to 2:00 hours after Defeat the Risen High Wizard and secure the Promenade of the Gods. If this first defense is successful, this event repeats every 1:00 to 1:30 hours.
- There are two versions of this defense event: one where the Risen High Wizard spawns, and one where he doesn't. These events alternate. In the event with the Risen High Wizard, his name and life bar will appear in the event tracker.
- All achievements (except Aurene's Facet of Shadows) require the event version with the Risen High Wizard. If the event does not spawn the Risen High Wizard, the next event will.
- When this defense event fails, the Gates of Arah meta starts right away with the Secure the Pact staging area at Shank Anchorage event at the Anchorage Waypoint as the usual escort is skipped.
