Star Wars The Old Republic: [HEROIC 2+] The Hate Machine

Sacred Ruins / Tomb of Tulak Hord

This is a Heroic mission, which means that without other players or companion's help (and an appropriate character's level) it's pointless to do it. You'll receive it from Ephran Zell in [1], who's working by the sarcophagi in Tomb of Tulak Hord - The Antechamber. Talk to him and offer your assistance.

Activate the Red Engine

Run south, to the tomb exit in [2]. Go to Tomb of Tulak Hord - Ruined Atrium, and then head for [3], to the Tomb of Tulak Hord entrance - The Hate Machine. Once you're inside, locate the green force field (it's right on the left once you've entered) and pass through to get to the story area.

Move closer to the altar in the middle of the large hall (in [4]) and activate it. Immediately run to [5]. Now, you'll have to deal with three waves of K'lor'slugs. Remember to instantly restore your health after each wave (as much as you can).

Slay the K'lor'slugs

Quickly use all boosting abilities. The first wave will appear in [5], it will consist of several K'lor'slug Bloodwurms and two K'lor'slug Bloodfeasters. The latter use ranged attacks and they're very efficient in that, so it's vital that you deal with them first. You won't have any trouble with the rest of the bugs. Regenerate your health after the fight and prepare for the next.

The second wave will come out of [6]. It's going to be more difficult here unless you defeat four K'lor'slug Bloodfeasters on time. Run towards them as soon as you can to minimize the damage from their ranged attacks. Kill them all, restore your health again and get ready for the last battle.

Two K'lor'slug Bloodfeasters and K'lor'slug Bloodqueen [*] will emerge from [7]. The key to success is to quickly go past the queen and first deal with the K'lor'slug Bloodfeasters.

Then, take care of the K'lor'slug Bloodqueen [*] - the queen shouldn't be a difficult enemy to defeat without her "friends". However, keep some Medpacs handy.

Retrieve the Tablet

After killing the queen, have a look at the altar in [4], which is now open. There's Red Engine Tablet you should take. You'll obtain a Codex entry - Lore: The Red Engine - worth 390 XP.

Return to Ephran Zell

All that's left to do is to exit the tomb and go to [2] through the ruined atrium. Once you're in the Tomb of Tulak Hord - The Antechamber - go to [1]. Speak with Ephran Zell about the mission you've just accomplished to receive your rewards.

Rewards:

• 3530 XP;
• 292 credits;
• Korribani Battle Leggings* / Aspiring Sorcerer's Lower Robe* (depending on a class);
• Codex entry and a title - Achievement - Titles: Imperial Scholar - 300 XP.
