In the Red Katalam region, there are boss creatures that yield Chests and Selectable manastones. Many players are not aware, but there are actually 3 bosses on a set timer. Considering how pricey manastones are now, it’s worthwhile to farm them. I’ve been doing this since version 7.2 and have maxed out my legendary/ultimate sets on 2 alts. Until now, I've shared this info with only a select 30 or so people, inviting new players who showed interest. But it’s time for everyone in the game to know about these bosses to loot too.
These bosses spawn every single day at the same timings (give or take 10-15 mins)
Moreover, each boss has a weekly quest.
You can defeat both bosses before siege begins.
Arkmundir - South West Cave - 8.20pm-8.40pm Server Time
Arktagorn - South East Cave - 8.20pm-8.40pm Server Time
Arkaithos - A 50/50 chance to spawn on either Asmo or Elyos side (either faction can defeat it - 9pm Server time on Monday, Wednesday, Friday during siege hours)
Defeating Arkmundir/Arktagorn grants: 4 Selectable Ultimate Manastones, 8 Selectable Legendary Manastones, and 4 Ultimate Intense Chests (a total of 20 loot items) - While Arkaithos rewards even more with 30 pieces of loot.

Locating Arktagorn (South East Cave)
Utilize the Windstream - The entrance to the Cave is a hidden doorway beneath where the windstream climbs up the cliffside; enter and follow the descending pathway.
Finding Arkmundir (South West Cave) - Position
The entrance can be found just east of Garrison 706 on ground level, proceed into the cave.

I'd also highly recommend checking out Aion Riftshade, launching in Q1 2026. It's expected to be the best Aion private server 2026, with amazing custom rates, the lowest ping (15ms across EU), and no bugs. The private server is already known for great balance and active GvG / Sieges.
