BEST Rare in TWW - How to get the Mount: Sthaarbs's Last Lunch
Looking for the elusive “Star” rare in the Oasis and hoping to snag the Starb’s Last Lunch mount? Here’s a step-by-step guide based on Moudi’s experience, including tips on how to find, engage, and survive this unique encounter!
Locating the Rare: Star in the Oasis
Where to Find: The rare named Star spawns in the Oasis area. When active, Star appears as a large elite icon on your map, visible in both phased and non-phased versions of the zone.
Mount Drop: Star has a chance to drop the Starb’s Last Lunch mount.
How to Engage Star
Phasing Required: You can’t attack Star in the normal phase. To engage, you must enter the phasing. Look for a portal near the rare’s location.
Portal Mechanics:
Don’t Jump In! The portal here is deceptive. Unlike portals in previous dungeons, jumping in will just drop you to your death.
Use the Button: Instead, interact with the “Face Warp” button. This uses your ry wraps to traverse via arcane flows and safely brings you into the correct phase for the fight.
The Encounter: Platform Mechanics
Platforms: Once phased, you’ll find yourself on one of four platforms surrounding Star.
Swirly Thingies: On the left and right sides of each platform are swirling portals. Stepping on these will bounce you between platforms.
Debuffs and Hazards:
Debuff: Star applies a debuff that deals damage around you. Stay away from the tank and other players to avoid being knocked off.
Spikes: Spikes shoot out from the platform. If you’re hit, you risk being tossed off and falling.
Swirly Knockback: The swirling portals can also toss you off the platform if you’re not careful. Use them to move, but time your jumps!
Tips for Success
Stay Alert: Watch for the debuff and avoid clustering with others, especially near the tank.
Platform Hopping: Be ready to jump between platforms to dodge hazards.
Don’t Rush the Portal: Always use the Face Warp button, not the portal itself.
Expect Chaos: When this rare is live, expect lots of players and plenty of accidental falls!
Rewards
Starb’s Last Lunch Mount: Defeating Star gives you a chance at this unique mount. Moudi notes he’s killed Star twice without the drop—so persistence is key!
Fun Mechanics: This rare is notable for its complex mechanics, making it more engaging than most standard rares.
Star is a standout rare thanks to its multi-platform, hazard-filled fight. Whether you’re after the mount or just want to experience a fun encounter, follow these tips to maximize your chances and avoid a long fall!Good luck, and may Starb’s Last Lunch be yours soon!
