## Walkthrough,
### Step 1 — Temple of the Fallen,
Upon entering, talk to the NPC in the center of the map.
After the dialogue, a **20-second countdown** will begin.
**Monster Waves** will spawn:
* Each wave has **50 monsters**, randomly spread across the map.
* If the party defeats **45 monsters**, the remaining monsters will disappear and the next wave will begin.
* After two waves, the **Mini Boss: Iron Pincher** will appear.
Once the boss is defeated, an NPC will reappear. The **party leader** must talk to the NPC to proceed.
***
### Step 2
* Players must follow the path to the end without falling off.
If a player falls, they will respawn at the **last checkpoint** instead of restarting the entire map.
All party members must gather in the final room before the **party leader** can talk to the NPC to continue.
### Step 3
* All players will be teleported to the **bottom-right room** of the map `que_sign01`.
Talk to the NPC in the center of the map to begin a **20-second countdown** before the boss appears.
Defeat the boss monster.
**Special Boss Mechanic:**
* Every **40 seconds**, the boss will begin casting a **One-Shot skill** that can wipe out the entire party.
* This cast has a **15-second fixed cast time**.
* At the same time, **5 pillars** will spawn. Each pillar has **25 HP**.
* The party must quickly destroy all pillars (damage each one at least once) before the cast completes.
* If successful, the boss will cancel the One-Shot skill.
