Ssraeshza Temple Upside Down is the reflection version of Ssra. It uses the same temple bones, but the active scripts are about mirrors, moon pressure, reflected enemies, and the path to San Junipero.
Ssraeshza Temple Upside Down covers the Vecna encounter and The Black Mirror path to San Junipero.


Only scripts in the current Ssraeshza Temple parent folder that reference this reflected version are covered here.

[https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=49764 Eclipsed Mirror of Midnight] is the special mirror item. Its item data has a click effect that applies the mirror buff. The upside-down Ssra scripts check for both pieces:
For The Black Mirror path:


* The mirror must be equipped in the ammo slot.
* Keep Eclipsed Mirror of Midnight equipped in the ammo slot.
* The mirror buff must be active.
* Keep the mirror buff active.
 
If either part is missing, the mirror checks do not fire and The Black Mirror will not respond.
 
== Reflected Boss Flow ==
 
The opening reflection path starts with a mixed spawn package and Doomshade. Doomshade can hand the chain forward into Image of Luclin, then Khati Sha the Twisted, then Sel`Rheza, the Lunar Oracle.
 
These bosses share a mirror mechanic. When a qualified player has the Eclipsed Mirror of Midnight equipped and buffed, the boss has a chance during the fight to crack the mirror, turn reflected, become stronger, and add an extra reflected reward.
 
Reflected reward examples include:
 
* [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=51985 Cloak of Reflected Vitriol].
* [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=54955 Shawl of Reflected Awakenings].

Doomshade is the first major reflected boss after the Paradigm event starts. It can drop [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=51981 Pebble Crusher], [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=26595 Shield of Auras], [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=28815 Shield of Holy Vigor], and a Shattered Midnight Shard.
 
If the mirror check succeeds, Doomshade can become reflected and add reflected versions of its reward theme.
 
== Image of Luclin ==
 
Image of Luclin continues the reflected chain and can drop [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=39614 Voidless Nature], [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=54959 Shadowcrescent], [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=51983 Luclinite Coagulated Shadowscale Coat], [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=26848 Fist of Mithril], and [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=26533 Geomantic Fingers of Focus].
 
Voidless Nature has a global click script that summons its matching pet weapon.
 
== Khati Sha the Twisted ==
 
Khati Sha the Twisted is another reflected chain boss. It drops twisted armor and weapon pieces, [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=63167 Mnemonic of Khati Sha], [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=51982 Twisted Boneplate Dagger], [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=27314 Band of Disrupted Auras], and [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=26556 Belt of Mystical Protection].
 
Its mirror check can add reflected Khati-style rewards.
 
== Sel`Rheza, the Lunar Oracle ==
 
Sel`Rheza is the Lunar Oracle step. She uses moon rock pressure and cryptic shouts about Nyseria, the Coven, the Mirror Moon, and the Black Mirror. Her script can summon Moon Rocks during the fight, and her mirror check can make the encounter harder while adding reflected rewards.
 
Notable drops include [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=50247 The Oracle's Lunar Power], [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=28852 Bone of Bertoxxulous], [https://shadowedeclipse.com/?a=item&id=30537 Adamantite Wristguard], and a Shattered Midnight Shard.
 
== Time and Clock Guardians ==
 
The Time script is the clock event in upside-down Ssra. When players enter the clock proximity, the Clock Guardians awaken. When both guardians die, Time receives the signals and Vecna appears after a short delay.

Ssraeshza Temple Upside Down Guide

Ssraeshza Temple Upside Down covers the Vecna encounter and The Black Mirror path to San Junipero.

Only the parent Ssra scripts tied to Vecna, The Black Mirror, and the version-one pressure around that encounter are covered here.

Access

This content branches from the reflected Ssra path after the regular Ssra completion work. The Time script is the clock event that leads to Vecna: when players enter the clock proximity, the Clock Guardians awaken. When both guardians die, Time receives the signals and Vecna appears after a short delay.

Required Mirror

Eclipsed Mirror of Midnight is the special mirror item. Its item data has a click effect that applies the mirror buff.

For The Black Mirror path:

  • Keep Eclipsed Mirror of Midnight equipped in the ammo slot.
  • Keep the mirror buff active.

The Black Mirror script checks both. If either is missing, it will not respond.

Vecna

Vecna is the major upside-down Ssra boss. He spawns with heavy buffs, casts a lunar nimbus effect, and starts spawning creeping blights while engaged.

The fight has a proximity check. If too few non-GM players stay close enough, Vecna shouts that the ritual collapses and the zone is depopped. Stay engaged and keep enough bodies near him.

At low health, Vecna has a chance to spawn The Black Mirror near the Emperor portal area. This is the important San Junipero window.

Vecna drops include:

The Lunar Device has a global click script that spawns a travel device at your location if you are out of combat.

The Black Mirror and San Junipero

The Black Mirror despawns after ten minutes. When it appears, qualified players receive the warning to hurry before it fades.

To use it:

  • Keep Eclipsed Mirror of Midnight equipped.
  • Keep the mirror buff active.
  • Get to The Black Mirror near the Emperor portal area before it fades.
  • Hail it.
  • It asks where you can go if you die, to live forever, should you choose to upload your consciousness.
  • The answer is "San Junipero."

On a correct answer, The Black Mirror creates a San Junipero expedition in Solusek Temple version 1. It grants San Junipero access to the qualifying player, or to same-IP group/raid members, then tells you to say "ready" to enter.

San Junipero is where you face reflected versions of old foes.

Version One Pressure

The parent zone controller has version-one-only proximity traps. Around this upside-down path, certain areas can spawn creeping blights, another larger blight wave, and Demogorgon, Guardian of the Basement. These are on cooldowns, so movement through the reflected temple can wake extra pressure before or after the Vecna pull.

Practical Route

Reach the clock event, kill both Clock Guardians, and prepare for Vecna. Keep Eclipsed Mirror of Midnight equipped and buffed. When Vecna is low, watch for The Black Mirror message and run to the Emperor portal area immediately. Hail it, answer "San Junipero," then say "ready" once the expedition is formed.
