===Pleasure Gardens===
The Pleasure Gardens will require elements of strategy and stealth to surpass. Kill the Loyalist War Beasts and Beast Handlers, noting the positions of several large, flowering plants, pillars of light, and the golden statue atop the safe room which is flanked by two Prism Weapons. The six Royal Beasts will enter the area, hunting for anyone who roams the lower floor, and Calus will unlock the safe room, which contains four spores of Royal Pollen. If the Royal Beasts detect anyone, they will each run to a flowering plant and unleash a Psionic Howl, which will kill anyone not in the safe room after a brief charging period. Furthermore, any players who die will endanger the team: if they are not revived within 25 seconds, the entire team dies from "Shared Fate".

If the Royal Beasts detect anyone, they will each run to a flowering plant and unleash a Psionic Howl, which will kill anyone not in the safe room after a brief charging period. Furthermore, any players who die will endanger the team: if they are not revived within 30 seconds, the entire team dies from "Shared Fate".


Royal Pollen-carriers must make their way to the flowering plants without being detected, and Prism Weapon-wielders must focus the pillars of light onto the plants while the Royal Pollen is held next to them. This produces a stack of buffs called "Empowering Spores"; the higher the stack, which can be increased by visiting more of the plants, the more damage players can inflict on the Royal Beasts. Making things trickier, as more Royal Beasts are killed, the remaining ones will detect players faster. Therefore, all six Royal Beasts should be weakened to the point that they can be killed simultaneously, rather than picked off one-by-one.

Making things trickier, as more Royal Beasts are killed, the remaining ones will detect players faster. Therefore, it may be advisable to weaken all six Royal Beasts to the point that they can be killed simultaneously, rather than picked off one-by-one, than the latter strategy can still be used. Ensure that at least one team member can escape to the safe room to survive any Psionic Howls and revive the team.
