{{#ev:youtube|kVkwSHBqYPI|325|right|Copperbell Mines Guide}}
Throughout the dungeon, the party must collect '''six-onze pinches of firesand''' as explosive ammo needed to clear debris in the way.
 
In the first room of enemies, defeat them and pick up the '''Tiny Key''' needed to unlock the '''Sealed Blasting Door'''. Pull the '''Lift Lever''' in the next room and ride the lift down.
 
The next area consists of a narrow path with two branches. These are generally ignored and do not contain any bonus treasure coffers. Unlike in most dungeons, any aggroed enemies will "de-aggro" if they are pulled to a long enough distance from where they originally spawned. ''Therefore, it is possible to pull all enemies in this corridor until the room before the first boss, with limited risk''. This should be communicated beforehand however, and is not recommended for inexperienced tanks or healers.
 
The room before the first boss contains two '''Firesands''', one between the torches and the other on top of the mound. These should be collected and placed in the '''Powder Chamber'''. Afterwards, interact with the '''Blasting Device''' to open the way.
 
Defeat '''[[Kottos]]''', the first boss, pick up the Tiny Key, and open the door. Ride the lift down at the end of the passage.
 
Upon reaching the intersection, the two [[Blasting Cap]]s at the left and right rooms must be defeated to obtain two '''Firesands'''. Both will need to be pulled separately, as they will de-aggro if they leave their starting rooms. Fill the powder chamber and use the blasting device to open the way.
 
Remember to pick up the '''Firesand''' in the hallway before the second boss. After defeating the '''[[Ichorous Ire]]''', pick up the '''Firesand''' and open the path with the blasting device.
 
Proceed through the next room and to the final boss, '''[[Gyges the Great]]'''. Note that not all enemies need to be aggroed.

===Kottos the Gigas===
===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r4.png|link=]] [[Kottos|Kottos]]===
Before Kottos emerges, waves of [[spriggans]] appear and attack your party. AoE damage is ideal for dealing with spriggans.
*'''Grand Slam''': Tankbuster. Tanks should use mitigation to lower the damage.
*'''Lumbering Leap''': Kottos will jump to 3 areas, causing a massive circle AoE to appear at the location. Players should move to the small safe spot at the edge of the arena.
*'''Colossal Slam''': A large cone AoE targeted on a random player.
*'''Catapult''': Kottos will throw a rock at a random player, dealing moderate damage.
 
===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r4.png|link=]] [[Ichorous Ire]]===
*'''Fluid Spread''': Tankbuster.
*'''Syrup''': Circle AoEs will appear below all players, requiring them to move out of it.
*'''Divide''': After 50% HP, Ichorous Ire will split up into many Ichorous Drips, which will each cast '''Burst''', a circle AoE centered on the enemy.
 
===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] [[Gyges the Great]]===
*'''Grand Slam''': Tankbuster.  
*'''Gigantic Swing''': A massive donut AoE centered on the boss. Players must move into the boss' hitbox to avoid excess damage.
*'''Gigantic Smash''': The boss will recenter and cast a circle AoE in the center along with 5 more on the outside of the arena. Players should move into the safe spots in between the AoEs.

Ichorous Ire is a giant green blob or flan monster. An Improved Blasting Device sits in the center of the boss room, next to the reddish magma stone. During the fight, spriggans will periodically spawn into the room. They will drop blasting powder upon death. Upon receiving blasting powder, one of the party members needs to interact with the Improved Blasting Device to spawn a bomb monster. Before interacting with the Improved Blasting Device, Ichorous Ire should be lured to the magma stone. The bomb monster will explode after sometime, dividing Ichorous Ire into 2, smaller blobs. Repeat previous steps and spawn 4 even smaller blobs. Repeat the steps for the 3rd time to spawn 8 very small and vulnerable blobs. Kill the 8 blobs to finish Ichorous Ire off.

===Rise Of The Hecatoncheires===
Situated in Western Thanalan, these mines were abandoned three hundred years ago when their veins dried up, and monsters moved in to replace the miners who moved out. Recently, however, Amajina & Sons Mineral Concern reclaimed the Shafts and, employing new excavation techniques, proceeded to expand downwards in an attempt to tap yet undiscovered veins of valuable metal.
 
Unfortunately, it was not riches the powder kegs uncovered, but sheer terror, for when the

The hecatoncheires—thralls of the lost Thorne Dynasty—were freed from their lightless prison,centuries of hate fueling their madness. In dealing with this unexpected disturbance, the Concern turned to the Adventurers’ Guild, who dispatched a band of their bravest to

===Gyges the Great===
Gyges the Great is a muscular giant with a two large horns on his helmet. He is able to perform a powerful AoE cone attack in front of him. There are loose rocks on the sides of the boss room. During the boss fight, Gyges periodically runs to the rocks and begins to break them. Once a rock formation is broken, a new giant spawns into the room. Kill the add quickly and prevent it from destroying more rocks.  
Of the hecatoncheires who were unleashed in Copperbell Mines, few could claim to be as imposing as Gyges the Great. What enchantments were once woven into his golden helm to ensure his obedience had long since failed, allowing him to turn his massive hammer on hapless fools instead of rock.

Copperbell Mines Guide

Throughout the dungeon, the party must collect six-onze pinches of firesand as explosive ammo needed to clear debris in the way.

In the first room of enemies, defeat them and pick up the Tiny Key needed to unlock the Sealed Blasting Door. Pull the Lift Lever in the next room and ride the lift down.

The next area consists of a narrow path with two branches. These are generally ignored and do not contain any bonus treasure coffers. Unlike in most dungeons, any aggroed enemies will "de-aggro" if they are pulled to a long enough distance from where they originally spawned. Therefore, it is possible to pull all enemies in this corridor until the room before the first boss, with limited risk. This should be communicated beforehand however, and is not recommended for inexperienced tanks or healers.

The room before the first boss contains two Firesands, one between the torches and the other on top of the mound. These should be collected and placed in the Powder Chamber. Afterwards, interact with the Blasting Device to open the way.

Defeat Kottos, the first boss, pick up the Tiny Key, and open the door. Ride the lift down at the end of the passage.

Upon reaching the intersection, the two Blasting Caps at the left and right rooms must be defeated to obtain two Firesands. Both will need to be pulled separately, as they will de-aggro if they leave their starting rooms. Fill the powder chamber and use the blasting device to open the way.

Remember to pick up the Firesand in the hallway before the second boss. After defeating the Ichorous Ire, pick up the Firesand and open the path with the blasting device.

Proceed through the next room and to the final boss, Gyges the Great. Note that not all enemies need to be aggroed.

Rise Of The Hecatoncheires

Situated in Western Thanalan, these mines were abandoned three hundred years ago when their veins dried up, and monsters moved in to replace the miners who moved out. Recently, however, Amajina & Sons Mineral Concern reclaimed the Shafts and, employing new excavation techniques, proceeded to expand downwards in an attempt to tap yet undiscovered veins of valuable metal.

Unfortunately, it was not riches the powder kegs uncovered, but sheer terror, for when the smoke cleared, out poured an army of raging giants from the darkest recesses of the mines. The hecatoncheires—thralls of the lost Thorne Dynasty—were freed from their lightless prison,centuries of hate fueling their madness. In dealing with this unexpected disturbance, the Concern turned to the Adventurers’ Guild, who dispatched a band of their bravest to exterminate the rampaging creatures.

Gyges the Great

Of the hecatoncheires who were unleashed in Copperbell Mines, few could claim to be as imposing as Gyges the Great. What enchantments were once woven into his golden helm to ensure his obedience had long since failed, allowing him to turn his massive hammer on hapless fools instead of rock.

Return Of The Hecatoncheires

While conducting a survey of the deep shafts, a crew of engineers watched in horror as more of the enraged giants rose forth from the darkness, and the mines fell into chaos anew.

Yet though the trouble was settled underground, it continued overground as Amajina & Sons Mineral Concern demanded reparation from the Adventurers’ Guild for losses resulting from the unfulfilled first cull. The dispute was brought before the Order of Nald’thal, the arbiters of Ul’dahn law, and the matter was settled with the two parties sharing the burden equally.

Ouranos
