Defeat the Bworker

The Bworker's melee reach

Its three spells can only be cast in melee, but Bwork Sanction hits for 30% of its HP, and Bwork Thrashing climbs with the HP it has lost. Never end your turn within its reach: with 9 MP, it crosses the room fast.

The five-step strategy against the Bworker

Choose your method. Two ways to win: keep it at a distance with MP removal, or trap it in a corner. Either way, it must never reach a character.

Distance. An Enutrof removes all of the Bworker's MP every turn while the others wear down and finish the monsters. If it advances too far, push it back with the spells designed for that.

Blocking. Let it approach without reaching your melee range, then, with a Pandawa for example, place it in a corner and block it with two monsters. Never the Cybwork, which would take its damage, nor the Mama Bwork, which would heal it. An ally with high lock next to both blockers keeps them from moving; otherwise, reposition them or block their contact too.

The sparks. Each Elemental Bwork summons a spark that pulls you in, then explodes on contact and can hit several characters from the first turn. Kill it as soon as it appears, or position yourself so that it can neither reach you nor pull you in.

Finish the Bworker. With the monsters dead, hit it at range, preferably in Air. The more wounded it is, the more Bwork Thrashing hurts: don't relax your control at the end.

The monsters of Bworker's Cave

Six Gisgoul Bworks of level 172: four Elementals with 100% resistance in their element, a Cybwork that protects and a Mama Bwork that heals. Their sparks come before everything else. Resistances in red are their weaknesses.

In which order to kill the monsters

  1. Mama Bwork — she heals the whole room and can restore a big part of an ally's HP at once.

Preparing your run through Bworker's Cave

A level 170 to 180 dungeon that rewards distance control. People come for the quests, the achievements and the Bworker's soul for the Ochre Dofus, with a Soul Stone for Huge Souls (captures up to level 200).

How to enter Bworker's Cave

The entrance is in Gisgoul, in the Sidimote Moors, at ; the nearest zaap is the one in the Primitive Cemetery . Three ways to open it: a Bworker's Cave Key (consumed), the key ring if it is registered there, or automatic group search.

Crafting the Bworker's Cave Key

It is crafted at a handyman's workshop. The four Holey Headbands and the Spoiled Meat drop from the dungeon's Elementals, at 17%. Tench (fishing), Mandrake and Millet (harvesting) complete the recipe.

Which team to bring against the Bworker

Some MP removal. An Enutrof who drains the Bworker's MP every turn makes the fight very easy. Complete with push spells for the turns when it approaches.

Positioning. A Pandawa traps the Bworker in a corner between two monsters, and a character with high lock keeps them from moving. Choose your blockers well: neither the Cybwork nor the Mama Bwork.

Several elements. Each Elemental has 100% resistance in its element and loses 19% in another: Earth on Air, Air on Earth, Water on Fire, Fire on Water. The Bworker, for its part, fears Air.

Classes that are comfortable with it. The Enutrof for MP removal, the Pandawa for blocking: those are the dungeon's two methods. Any class that pushes back helps keep the Bworker out of reach.

The five achievements of Bworker's Cave

Each achievement gives 36,604,000 XP and 2 Bworker Nail, and Duo doubles the XP. Fair Fight forbids any control: it is played separately.

Special: Fair Fight

Enemies must not suffer any MP, AP or Range removal, nor any displacement attempt. Your two usual methods are out. Kill the Bworker quickly, first. If you can't finish it on turn 1, corner it with summons or a tank class, so that it wastes its heavy melee hits on them.

Bworker's Cave as a guild Expedition

The Cave exists in two guild Expeditions, Audacious and Valour, each with its own modifier:

  • Audacious: the Bworker has only one MP, but when you attack it at range, it teleports next to its attacker and gains 20 lock;
  • let it move, but the last character to play before it must push it back at least 2 Range from everyone, out of your melee reach. The safest option: kill the monsters first and ignore it;
  • Valour: above 50% of its HP, it is invulnerable at range and gains 4 AP; at 50%, it is invulnerable for a full turn; below that, it is invulnerable in melee, gains 4 MP and becomes immune to lock;
  • kill it first: let it come into melee from turn 1, bring it down to 50%, push it back and remove its MP during its invulnerability turn, then finish it at range. It can kill a character at that moment: keep enough to finish its remaining HP.
