Maws of Torment
- Event type
- Meta event
Maws of Torment is a meta event that takes place in The Ruptured Heart and The Ruination within The Desolation, and involves assisting the Order of Shadows to close three portals to the realm of the Forged, at the Western, Northern and Eastern Maw gates around the The Mouth of Torment.
Event schedule[edit]
The events occur on the hour every 2 hours (the odd hours for UTC server time). Closest waypoint is The Darklands Waypoint — to the north. During the assault, three Shadow demolitionists in The Ruination will need to be escorted into The Ruptured Heart simultaneously:
- Demolitionist Sola to the Western Maw — to destroy the West Realm Portal
- Demolitionist Afia to the Northern Maw — to destroy the North Realm Portal
- Demolitionist Folke to the Eastern Maw — to destroy the East Realm Portal

Notes[edit]
- It's possible to use the Skyscale's Blast or Fireball skills to damage the Realm Portals and progress the events, especially if the Sieging Fireball mastery has been acquired. Note that this can completely skip the of the escort event phase of a maw, preventing the collection of Portal Spikes.
- Weakening Maw defenses does not have to be successful for the event to progress, however destroying the realm portals must be successful for it to progress.
