To start this instance you will need to take quest bird in the cage(used to be quest to open hb isle, now it is mainly for the 14 stages from the last boss baylor).
after then you will need to go to dark cloud mansion. there you start mini-instance of 2 mans/gals. after you compliet it you will get Impure Crystal. recomendations are that you start Steam corridor first.

Steam corridor - kechi

bifore you enter you need to get atlest 3 red corals, make sure that each party member has atlest 3 of em. you get em from evas gift boxes witch are located near the gatekeeper that teleport to instance in the water, to get corals from em you need kiss of eva buff, or bless of eva potion or it wont give corals drop rate is not 100%.

ok, so you got impure crystal(all of pt membs) 3 red corals(all of pt membs).

steam corridor instance can be entered whit 2 to 9 ppl(take 9ppl ofc).
most of mobs have fire based attacks whit hight m.atk. take fire ressit potions, and sws use song of flame guard and get bd whit shadow dance.
party - sws, bd, buffer, tank, ee, bs, arbalester , sr, he. (archer group, tank can be changed to soulbraker if ppl are good geared, but i dont suggest that even then).
Also u can make other kind of party witch for me is more effective and better. sws, bd , buffer, tank, se, bs, titan, titan, dagger.(1 titan can be changed to archer wold be better then, or a soul braker,berserker, inspector can be taked insted but its all about your taste).
for mages, well dont do it for mages, you will most likly waste time and fail in the end.
evry room in steam corridor has a narrow time limit. so you must not waste time and hurry, be agrresive.
Now when you enter crystal caverns you will lose the crystal(its a key to enter). You can spend 90 mins(thats the time limit for instance), but steam corridor has special restrictions.
After you have entered the Crystal caverns, talk to the oracle ouide inside and ask it to open the door to the Emerald Square and cteam corridor.
wallk down the hall, you will see main gate of steam corridor, you cant enter yet , you need to get key.

inside corridor there is a gatekeeper provo, 81 lvl mob, agro. and he has 2 guards gatekeepers of fire.
after you kill provo you will get red coral key.
gatekeeper has strong fire attack(aoe).3-4 aoe attacks of that and your party is down, try to sleep/silence(sws song) provo and kill his guards first.
when you get the key go to the doors you saw, when you enter clock starts you have 5 mins for first room, hurry.by careful for mobs(kechi guards) they explode and dose an aoe. sleep kechi captain. when you kill all mobs, 4 sepulchers called evas guardian will spawn.
when you heal em you get time for next room, from left to right it is 5,10,15 and 20 mins.
heal the second from the left(10 mins), after you heal it, oracle will apear talk to him and he will teleport you to next room.
for first room you have 5mins after 5 mins end you are done so hurry. bifore thos 5 mins end you have to be entered second room. teleportation divices wanishes in 1min~ talk to him imidiatly no mather that you are out of mana on bishop enter second room, u will be able to get mana in second room whit help of shadow dance.
at second room alot of mobs will be near entrance so enter it whit shadow dance. each time you teleport you will lose 1 red coral, you need to teleport 3 times that why you need 3 corals for each pt memb.
this room has alot of monsters near entrance and exit midle is kinda safe, move to it whit shadow dance and start killing mobs, rimember you have much time as you chose by healing sepulcher in our case 5-6mins.
after you clear the room 3 remaining sepulchers will spawn, this time heal the last one on the right(20min), bicose this room is hardest.
do as bifore dance of shadow, heal sepulcher, oracle spawn, talk - teleport in. and you will lose red coral agen.
now it looks like a first room but alot more monsters, whit fuve safe spots, get in corner and start killing from there. mobs have stuns here and use em often, your party get stuned easily be carfull.
after you cleared room 2 remaining sepulchers will spawn heal the 15min one.
again red colar will disapear.
mobs here have strong attacks but lower defence thne in last room, and are extremly agro here.
after you kill the last monster in the room door will open by it self. where the kechi is.
you have 90 minutes for the crystal cavers so lets see 10 for first, 20 for second, 15 for third, is 50minutes you have left 40mins for kechi now.
atfirst it will look like peace of cake but. be ready at random times he jumps to the air and heal him self, and second one is unlimited numbers of his minions. witch he tend to call em at random time.
when he calls his guards he dose call 10 of em at the time, this is where the hard mode kicks in, try to root, sleep, medusa on thos guards as fast as you can, that why i usualy take ol here for mass root and mass silence, after that kill them. and concentrate on kechi agen.

after you kill him you will get red crystal and white seed of evil - shard.

red crystal will be used later for baylor.

now you cant enter instance for 24h, use this time to get a nother crystal from dark cloud manshion and water dragon scales for next instance.

Coral Garden - tears

bifore starting kill some dark water dragons, make sure evry one in your party have 3 of water dragon scales.
now get kiss of eva,bless of eva dive agen where you collected red corals this time get crystal fragments party needs about 30~ of em.
here you need ressit water buffs/potion.
there is alot of time for the instance coz you have 90mins for caverns and coral garden dose not have special restricions like steam corridor dose.
but monsters here are stronger.
single target water attacks can do sireos demage by carfull.
make sure your party is mainly destros , coz archers will make u fail monstly here.
after you are in in cavers as oracle to open door for coral garden.
here is no need to kill monsters u can directly enter. now kill all monsters in the main room. but be carfull monsters are strong here, be carfull of single water attacks they cast em slowly, sws song of silenc helps here 2. coz that attack will take chars whit lower hp pools one hited, usualy tanks and destros can take that cannon whit proper jewels.
monsters also have stun and aoe watter based attacks.
easyest way here to do is dagger whit lure and fake death, to take monsters one by one or 2 of em.
monsters easy get silenced rooted and sleeped here, use that as your advantage.
when you clean out the room 2 crystalline golems will spawn in the both sides of the structure in the center.
now drop crystal fragments to lure them to opositive side of there psawn location in the smal rooms, they will eat em if u drop them near em and move to the spot u droped its easy. when the blue light shines in the room it means u are fine and lured it.
after that door will open to meet tears.
he has very hight hp pool. physical attacks are easy to take, but magic ones are hard. she can one shot healers. also she casts aoe freezing attack that works like paralyze.
when u will take 1/5 hp of her she will multiple , all clones are same. now concentrate on your demage done if u do see increased demage done it is clone, if u normal it is real one, also clones do less demage to you then tears.
when tears are 20% hp left she will be invincible now you need to use water dragon scale on here all pt members has to use it at the same time(maximum time difrence is 3 seconds).

when you kill her evry pt member will get clear crystal and black seed of evil - shard. clear crystal is used later for baylor.

Emerald Square - darnel

now you will need to get secret keys via island race. party needs atlest 3 of em.

dagger is needed here. for his skills.
partys can be same as in steam corridor or at coral garden just take dagger or atbalester.
tark to oracle inside to open door for emerald squeare.
now you walk the hallway like entering steam corridor just turn left this time, you will see doors but you need key like for steam corridor.
move deeper there is gatekeeper lohan there, he has the blue coral key, kill him.
here is no time limet bisedes the 90min of crystal cavers.
now kill all the monsters in there.
when you kill all of them two reef golems will spawn.
when you kill a golem special mob will spawn from one weylin from other terod.
now there is alot of doors there dagger walks near door and use skill find trap. to find a opening divice.
when dagger finds one he uses skill remove trap. also he cant move door will be closed if he moves so he stands and his party goes in and kills monsters inside.
now dagger jions party and there is 3 secret doors in any order(random), here you will need secret keys from island race, key will be lost when you open doors that why you need minium 3 keys.
here agen player who is opening the doors cant move or doors will close.
now when you clear 3 rooms doors for darnel will open.
she palces alot of posion traps.
dagger can find em but he dont have to remove them coz she will just spawn more that why archers are better here unless you are good geared and not first time, traps have wide trigger range so be carfull.
she has some strong skills like aoe nukes or aoe curses.
often uses paralyze.
you shuld have 2 healers that cna remove paralyze coz she often paralyzes random ppl.
after shes almost dead spikes will shoot from the ground healer shuld be prapared to spam heals.

after shes dead each pt memb will get blue crystal and white seed of evil - shard.

baylor

this is the last boss of bird in the cage quest. it cna only be entered if u have red, clear, and blue crystals from tears , darnel and kechi.
when you want to enter baylor all pt membs have to have thos crystals, and you need to kill one of bosses kechi darnel or tears i suggest to go darnel coz instance takes lower time coz u get 90 mins for cyrstal cavers that includes killing darnel and latter baylor for same time.
also you will need 3 water dragon claws from dark water dragons.
after you kill boss teleportation gate apears talk to it and you will get teleported to baylor room.
when you att baylor alarm divices will apear around him, kill them.
after you kill 15-20 of em alarm will stop that will lower baylors p att.
at random time he summons 83 lvl crystla prison guards, kill em.
when you kill em they some times drop prison gate key, whit em you can open 8 cells in baylors room, that will let golem out and golem will randomly chose to help you or baylor its a gambling if it helps you it lower gratly baylors p def/patt/mdef/matt.
but if it helps baylor it will boost his p def/patt/mdef/matt. and also cast curses on players.
if u do not think u will kill him when he get stronger dont touch keys then.
when baylors hp is below 20% he will become invincible, this is time that all pt members need to use water dragon claws on him same time, similar to coral garden.
you can lvl 14 stg crils on him bu usualy u get cursed cristals then you need to go to oasis in hb isle at night ant find blacksmith he removes curse for 1150 s gems.
also you will be able to finish bird in the cage quest when baylors dies use the teleport talk to npc and get back to quest giver to finish quest.
