Storylines and Trash Mobs in Collegiate Calamity

3.1.

Event #1: Academy Under Siege

In this event you must help the Thalassian University defend against a sudden void invasion, closing portals and defeating members of Xal'atath's Devouring Host in the process.

3.2.

Event #2: Faculty of Fear

In this event you must use the Eye of Revelation Icon Eye of Revelation to reveal Twilight's Blade members disguising themselves as students. Suspicious students are highlighted in yellow and can be seen through walls.

3.3.

Event #3: Invasive Glow

In this event, Lightbloom creatures are invading the Thalassian University. You are provided with a Grimgrow Deweeder Icon Grimgrow Deweeder, which can be used to instantly kill smaller Lightbloom mobs and deal damage to bigger ones.

After reaching the main level of the Thalassian University, you must use the Grimgrow Deweeder to destroy Luminibulb patches scattered across the delve.

Hydrangea Delve Boss Guide

Hydrangea is the final boss of the Invasive Glow event in Collegiate Calamity and has only two abilities of note. Here's how you defeat it more easily:

  • Wildroot Weave Icon Wildroot Weave spawns roots that immobilize you. These have fairly low health and can be killed.
  • Lightbloom Salvo Icon Lightbloom Salvo spawns light zones that deal moderate damage. Easy to dodge unless you're still rooted by Wildroot Weave, so make sure you're freed from the roots before this ability starts.
5.

Infiltrator Garand Delve Boss Guide

Infiltrator Garand is the final boss of the Faculty of Fear event in Collegiate Calamity and one of the easier Delve bosses in Midnight, with only two abilities to watch out for:

  • Shadow Laceration Icon Shadow Laceration cannot be interrupted and leaves a DOT effect. You can dodge it by leaving Garand's melee range, or simply popping a defensive if hit with it.
  • Twilight Crash Icon Twilight Crash has Garand jump to your location after a few seconds. If in a group, stay spread out so Garand only hits one target. If alone, stay away from Valeera and pop a defensive if he jumps on you.
6.

Voidscorned Vagrant Delve Boss Guide

Voidscorned Vagrant is the final boss of the Academy Under Siege event in Collegiate Calamity and a pretty straightforward boss. Here are its abilities to watch out for:

  • Void Eruption Icon Void Eruption leaves void zones on the floor and you can simply sidestep to dodge them.
  • Terrifying Power Icon Terrifying Power is a long cast time that deals damage and fears everyone. This cast can and should be interrupted at all times.
