Ssraeshza Temple

Ssraeshza Temple Guide

Ssraeshza Temple is the final regular Luclin push after The Grey. On Shadowed Eclipse it mixes the classic snake temple bosses with custom Luclin progression, SSRA essence, the Snake Slayer title, the Paradigm reflection chain, reflected reward checks, and the Ego Waffle Supreme path into Ssraeshza Temple Upside Down.

Access

Ssraeshza Temple access comes after The Grey. The Envoy can create Ssra instances, and the Harbinger of Luclin works here as the Luclin zone puller.

Snake Slayer Title And SSRA Essence

The zone-wide script tracks SSRA essence from regular temple kills.

Trash and minion kills can roll SSRA essence credit.
A successful roll has a 35% chance to add one SSRA essence update.
The completion target is 100 SSRA essence updates.
When that completion flag is granted, the script awards the Snake Slayer suffix title if the character has not already earned it.

Important: the live title script is based on the 100-essence completion flag. It does not currently require a separate named-kill checklist. The named bosses still matter for loot, progression drops, waffle pieces, and reflected progression.

Classic Temple Named

The old Ssra named are still important here. Treat them as real Shadowed Eclipse targets, not classic filler.

Vyzh-dra the Cursed

Vyzh-dra the Cursed is a static boss spawn on Shadowed Eclipse. The older cursed-controller chain can also spawn another route into that content, but the important player note is simple: Cursed is up as a static boss.

Vyzh-dra the Cursed is one of the big regular Ssra loot checks. He can drop Blighted Scaled Ssraeshza armor pieces, Runestones of Nightmares / Torment / Time, Timelost rewards, Chain of the Forsaken, Shard of Dark Blessing, Shard of Eternal Power, Shard of Valiance, Slithering Gemstone of the Golem, and Sprinkles for the Ego Waffle Supreme recipe.

Grieg Veneficus

Grieg Veneficus, The Mad Magus, is present in this Ssra build and has his own boss baseline in the zone script. He is a major loot target rather than background flavor.

Notable Grieg drops include class chest pieces, Blighted Scaled Ssraeshza armor, Fist of Mithril, Geomantic Fingers of Focus, Belt of Virility, Ichorflow, Jenniy's Two-tone Cuirass, Runestones, Timelost rewards, and Welcome to Level 62.

High Priest of Ssraeshza

High Priest of Ssraeshza is one of the main classic snake bosses and should be killed for both loot and progression materials.

Notable drops include Cinnamon Stick, Ring of the Shissar, Jewel of the Moon, Runestone of the Mistress, Blighted Scaled Ssraeshza armor, Shissar Wrist Protection, Spiritshard of the Gods, Obsidian Prayer Beads, shield/accessory rewards, and Welcome to Level 62.

Xerkizh the Creator

Xerkizh the Creator is the golem-lord boss and a key stop for the waffle chain.

Notable drops include Spice Grater, Midnight Alloy Crucible, Shissar Hand Wrap, Shard of Vesagran, Vengeful Shard of Power, several class shards, Blighted Scaled Ssraeshza armor, shield/accessory rewards, and Welcome to Level 62.

Arch Lich Rhag`Zadune And Rhag Cycle

The Rhag scripts still matter. Rhag`Zhezum and Rhag`Mozdezh are part of the Arch Lich path, and Arch Lich Rhag`Zadune is the major boss endpoint.

Arch Lich Rhag`Zadune can drop Cinnamon Stick, Phylactery of the Blackened Soul, Slithering Gemstone of Ssra, multiple class shards, Blighted Scaled Ssraeshza armor, shield/accessory rewards, and Welcome to Level 62.

Rhag`Mozdezh also carries classic-style rewards and Glowing Orb of Luclinite.

Ring of the Shissar And Emperor Room Access

Ring of the Shissar is required for Emperor-room access. If you try to enter the Emperor room without it, the zone script boots you back to zone-in.

Ring of the Shissar has a 35% drop chance from these Ssra bosses:

Vyzh-dra the Cursed.
Arch Lich Rhag`Zadune.
Grieg Veneficus.
High Priest of Ssraeshza.
Xerkizh the Creator.

Keep one with you before pushing Blood of Ssraeshza and Emperor Ssraeshza.

Blood of Ssraeshza And Emperor Ssraeshza =

Blood of Ssraeshza is tied into the Emperor pressure. Its script spawns Ssraezsha adds and can bring the real Emperor into play.

Emperor Ssraeshza is the God-Emperor payoff. Notable drops include Key to Arcstone, Chocolate Sauce, Lunar Waystone of Buffing, Ssraeshza's Imperial Binding Seal, Imperial Seal of Shadow, The Sword of Ssraeshza, Umbral Greenmist, Blighted Scaled Ssraeshza armor, class chest pieces, Runestones, Timelost rewards, and a rare Lunar Device.

Other Scripted Temple Named

Several additional named are directly involved in the old temple state:

Taskmaster Kavamezh, Taskmaster Keuzozh, Taskmaster Mikazha, Taskmaster Revan-Kezh, Taskmaster Vezhkah, Taskmaster Zerumaz, and Taskmaster Zhe-Vozh signal the old cursed markers.
Warden Mekuzh also participates in that old cursed-marker path.
Rhozth Ssravizh and Rhozth Ssrakezh are scripted named in that same temple state.
General Kizuhx, Advisor Zekuzh, Arbiter Korazhk, Klazaz the Slayer, Skzik the Tormentor, and Yasiz the Devourer appear as named temple targets and can drop powersource upgrade gems.

The older cursed-controller route is optional flavor now. It can still move through a rune-covered serpent or glyph-covered serpent, then Vyzh-dra the Exiled / Banished / Cursed, but players do not need to think of Cursed as only a hidden spawned NPC.

Paradigm Of Reflection

The zone spawns the Paradigm of Reflection after players enter if it is not already up. Once you have the SSRA completion flag, saying ready to the Paradigm starts the reflected boss chain.

The mirror item check uses the Eclipsed Mirror of Midnight in the ammo slot with its mirror buff active. When the reflected check succeeds, bosses can shift into reflected reward behavior and add reflected loot.

Reflected Boss Order

The regular Ssra reflected chain runs in this order:

Doomshade.
Khati Sha the Twisted.
Sel`Rheza, The Lunar Oracle.
Image of Luclin.
The Welcome Wagon.

Doomshade

Doomshade is the first reflected boss after the Paradigm event starts. Normal drops include Pebble Crusher, Shield of Auras, Shield of Holy Vigor, and a Shattered Midnight Shard.

If the mirror check succeeds, Doomshade can add reflected versions of its reward theme: Reflected Pebble Crusher, Shield of Reflected Holy Vigor, and Shield of Reflected Auras.

Khati Sha the Twisted

Khati Sha the Twisted follows Doomshade. Normal drops include Twisted Boneplate Dagger, Band of Disrupted Auras, Belt of Mystical Protection, and a Shattered Midnight Shard.

If reflected, Khati can add Twisted Boneplate Dagger of the Reflected, Belt of Mystical Reflected Protection, and Band of Disrupted Reflected Auras.

Sel`Rheza, The Lunar Oracle

Sel`Rheza, The Lunar Oracle is the third reflected boss. She uses the lunar/oracle theme and can summon pressure during the fight.

Normal drops include The Oracle's Lunar Power, Bone of Bertoxxulous, Adamantite Wristguard, and a Shattered Midnight Shard.

If reflected, Sel`Rheza can add The Oracle's Reflected Lunar Power, Reflected Bone of Bertoxxulous, and Reflected Adamantite Wristguard.

Image of Luclin

Image of Luclin comes after Sel`Rheza. Normal drops include Voidless Nature, Shadowcrescent, Luclinite Coagulated Shadowscale Coat, Fist of Mithril, Geomantic Fingers of Focus, Belt of Virility, and a Shattered Midnight Shard.

Voidless Nature has a global click script that summons its matching pet weapon.

If reflected, Image of Luclin can add Reflected Fist of Mithril, Geomantic Reflected Fingers of Focus, Belt of Reflected Virility, Reflected Shadowcrescent, and Luclinite Coagulated Reflected Shadowscale Coat.

The Welcome Wagon

The Welcome Wagon is the final regular Ssra reflected follow-up after Image of Luclin. It is not the first boss in the line; it is the closing pressure piece.

Normal drops include Harbinger of Luclin, Cloak of Vitriol, Ichorflow, Jenniy's Two-tone Cuirass, Shawl of Awakenings, Shield of Mental Fortitude, and a Shattered Midnight Shard.

If reflected, it can add Cloak of Reflected Vitriol, Shawl of Reflected Awakenings, Reflected Shield of Mental Fortitude, Jenniy's Two-tone Cuirass of Reflectability, and Reflected Ichorflow.

Ego Waffle Supreme And Upside Down Access

Ssraeshza Temple is where the waffle chain reaches its next big upgrade. The Ego Waffle Supreme is used to reach Ssraeshza Temple Upside Down.

The recipe path includes:

A Whipped Syrupy Ego Waffle.
Chocolate Sauce from Emperor Ssraeshza.
Cinnamon Stick from Arch Lich Rhag`Zadune.
Cinnamon Stick from High Priest of Ssraeshza.
The four Crushed Cherries from Grimling Forest, Scarlet Desert, Mons Letalis, and The Grey.
Spice Grater from Xerkizh the Creator.
Sprinkles from Vyzh-dra the Cursed.

Right-click the Ego Waffle Supreme out of combat to summon Eleven. Hail her, choose Ssraeshza Temple Upside Down, and say ready when you are prepared.

Black Mirror Thread

The Black Mirror / Vecna mechanic belongs to the Ssraeshza Temple Upside Down version, not the normal reflected chain. In that version, the special mirror check can create a timed chance at The Black Mirror near the Emperor portal. Hail it and answer San Junipero to enter that reflected side content.

Practical Route

Build SSRA essence while clearing temple trash. Kill the classic named for real loot and waffle pieces: High Priest, Xerkizh, Arch Lich, Vyzh-dra the Cursed, Grieg, Blood, Emperor, and the other scripted temple targets. Once the SSRA completion flag is done, use the Paradigm to run the reflected chain in order: Doomshade, Khati Sha, Sel`Rheza, Image of Luclin, then The Welcome Wagon. Finish the Ego Waffle Supreme when you are ready to push into Ssraeshza Temple Upside Down.
