Lasers
After the door opens, you enter a large area with two deadly laser puzzles.
The first one consists of a moving laser square pattern and can be disabled by activating four consoles inside a small room at the end of it. Pressing a console applies Immobile to you.
The second area is filled with spinning lasers. In exactly the same way as before, four consoles around the area have to be activated to disable the traps.
You don't need to kill a single mob and can bypass all traps with the following steps:
  1. One person (or more) teleports up to the first level and activates all four consoles using condition cleanses
  2. Everyone does /gg and resurrects immediately (you will spawn on the ramp up after the first console room)
  3. The team splits up to activate the second set of consoles (the spinning lasers won't be active if you're fast enough)
Speed is important here. Do not hesitate to /gg if you are certain the first console will be completed.

Final room (Frizz)
Talk to Inspector Ellen Kiel to teleport your party into the final room. Stack Might as soon as you are in.
Initially, Frizz and two Inquest approach. Talk to Frizz to begin the fight. As soon as Frizz reaches 75%, he teleports to the middle and becomes invulnerable.
After about five seconds, the first Aetherblade Golem wakes up and two Small Lasers start spinning, splitting the room in two. You can avoid the small lasers by jumping on the pile of boxes around the arena.
When the first golem dies, the two Small Lasers disappear and two Aetherblade Golem wake up. Large Lasers start spinning which you can only bypass entirely with Invulnerability.
As soon as the two golem are dead, the two Small Lasers and the two Large Lasers spin simultaneously and two final golem wake up. Kill the last golem to finish the fight.
If a golem walks through a laser, it powers up and blocks all attacks for a short time. Pay attention to their Pull attack, though it should not be a problem with high damage.
Still Faster Than Light
Don't get hit by the lasers! The hardest part is when all lasers are up, rotating at different speeds.
