Welcome to our guide to complete the Delsere's Magnum Opus (DMO) set dungeon for Wizards,a required step to complete the Masters of the Universe Conquest.

The Delsere's Magnum Opus Set Dungeon is located in Act III, the SkycrownBattlements. Take the act's town waypoint (Bastion's Keep Stronghold) and walkto the northeast, exiting through the drawbridge and then taking the rightentrance to the Skycrown Battlements. Progress through the zone, walking alongthe right side edge of the walls. At the first major corner, the entrance of theDMO Set Dungeon will open if you have the DMO set 6-piece bonus active.

The Delsere's Magnum Opus' two unique Primary Objectives are to: 1)Simultaneously catch 20 different enemies in a cast of Slow Time 4 times;and 2) Reflect 200 projectiles.

The Delsere's Magnum Opus Set Dungeon is a sizable Ruins of Corvus tileset,made of a large, roughly rectangular loop of twisting rooms, with a singledead end offshoot halfway through the dungeon. A proven attempt path is to clearthe first half of the rectangle, either going counter- or clockwise, finishingoff the dead end branch, and then returning to finish the remainder of therectangle.

The Delsere's Magnum Opus Set Dungeon is populated by the following enemytypes:

• Scarabs, Flesh Gorgers — while one is small and the other is largersized trash, they share a common purpose: padding the numbers on the "enemiescaught in Slow Time" Objective. Scarabs are more valuable in that regard,since they come in larger batches and are easily herded.
• Sand Wasps, Naja Beetles, Moon Clan Impalers — all three types come inlarge packs and fire projectiles: ideal to try and get the two Objectives goingat once.
• Opus Radical — the unique enemies of the map. They resemble ActIII's Blood Clan Mauler trash, but also have the Frozen affix. Their elementalaffix is fairly dangerous, so counter them with gear choices and try to eliminatethem on sight.

DMO is arguably the most annoying of the Wizard set dungeons, as its successis influenced by factors outside of your control — namely, the way RNGdistributes the monster packs (Set Dungeons' layout and composition is uniform,but monster placement is random). The Scarabs and Sand Wasps trash that are mosthelpful in completing the two Objectives (especially the harder Slow Timeone) spawn in packs of just-below-20 all too often. As a rule of thumb, if you donot get 2 out of 4 20-man hits by the time you get to the offshoot corridor, justrestart the dungeon to avoid frustration.

The DMO Set Dungeon is also, unfortunately, of the type that benefits fromnerfing your build and toning down your damage. Having the your grouping skill(most likely Black Hole Supermassive) oneshot the dungeon's trash beforeyou get a chance to use Slow Time on them will screw up the 1st Objective,so take some simple steps to lower your damage to the 800k-1 mil point. This ismost easily achieved by dropping excess offense jewelry and legendary gems.Seemingly helpful items like Ranslor's Folly should also be avoided, sincethey tend to overbuff your damage. If possible, try to have all the DPS underyour direct and easiest control, i.e. by focusing on Spectral Blade andusing Fragment of Destiny. Other very helpful items for the dungeon are thecraftable Cosmic Strand offhand (for a free Wormhole rune on Teleport) and Talisman of Aranoch (for immunity to the Colddamage of elites).

Sand Wasps will be the most helpful enemy type for the projectile reflectionObjective, so try to conserve them for a second or two before a fight —giving them a chance to release their barrage of slow moving shots. Spread a few Slow Times around the battlefield, and rack up the score on the 2ndObjective before you decimate their ranks.
