Scaraba Hole

Last updated:

Scaraba Hole is the beetle-infested dungeon beneath El Dicastes, home to Queen Scaraba and a handful of drops found nowhere else in the New World.

Getting There

  • On foot: Enter the Kamidal Tunnel (dic_dun01) from /navi dic_fild01 26/77.
  • Entrance Manager: Speak to the Sapha Entrance Manager at /navi manuk 320/181, who warps you into the tunnel. You must wear the Ring of the Ancient Wise King to talk to them.
  • Cat Hand Services: Once you have talked to the Cat Hand Agent at /navi dic_dun01 364/51, you can teleport to the entrance for 19,000z. See New World Travel.
  • Lower floor: You cannot enter dic_dun02 until you reach step 7 of Doha's Secret Orders. See Unlocking More, or enter through the Vigilantes instead.

Lower Floor Through the Vigilantes

The Vigilantes inside Scaraba Hole 1 (dic_dun01) offer another way into Scaraba Hole 2 (dic_dun02), meant for your other characters on the same account. The Light of El Dicastes can go in personal storage, so one standard copy can be passed between them.

  • No quest progress needed: You don't need step 7 of Doha's Secret Orders or the Ring of the Ancient Wise King.
  • Wear the standard Light of El Dicastes: You must have the unslotted Light of El Dicastes (2844) equipped when you talk to the Vigilantes. Slotted and enchanted versions don't work.
  • The usual route still works: Characters that reach step 7 of Doha's Secret Orders still enter the lower floor the usual way.

Already Upgraded Your Light of El Dicastes?

A slotted or enchanted Light of El Dicastes can't be restored to its standard form. If yours is already past the standard version, complete the quest chain on another character to get a standard one.

Monsters

  • Upper floor: Monsters on dic_dun01 are not aggressive.
  • Lower floor: Monsters on dic_dun02 are aggressive and can root you with Spider Web.
  • Antler and Rake Scaraba: They teleport away when hit from range while idle.
  • Bonus EXP: Both floors are part of the rotating bonus EXP zones. Check them with @mapexp.
