| The '''Condemned Subway''' is the first dungeon for newcomers to on Rubi-Ka.
  
{|
+
It's made for low level players in the '''level range ~5 - 24'''.<br/>
|-
+
Entering the dungeon is limited to level 24 max; while you can stay inside the dungeon and level beyond that you won't be able to reenter it once you've left it with a level 25 or higher. Warping into the dungeon is blocked (at least for players past level 24).
|This is dungeon for '''low level players between levels 5-24'''.
 
At level 25 you are unable to enter it.<br>
 
However if you manage to get past level 24 inside the dungeon you can remain inside, but if you go out you won't be able to get back in.  
 
  
There are three identical condemned subways located throughout [[Rubi-Ka]] which can be accessed by each faction ([[Omni-Tek]], [[Clan]],[[Neutrals|Neutral]]). They are separate, which means they are not connected in any way. If you have a friend in the omni version while you're in the neutral version you will not be able to find your friend.
+
The subway can be entered in the cities '''[[Borealis]]''', '''[[West Athen]]''' and outside the eastern gates of '''[[Rome]]''' (Rome Stretch, Pos: 174,874). There is a nonworking subway entrance in [[Newland City]]. All these entrances lead to different subways, even though the inside looks all the same.
  
The only subway which all factions can access safely is the neutral one, since both the omni and clan version have guards that would kill any low levels almost instantly.  
+
'''Note:''' If you want to explore the subway with friends, make sure to pick the one where all of you can go to safely (there are omni/clan guards nearby the subways in West Athen and outside Rome (Blue)). Furthermore, team up before entering the subway; the dungeon is instanced. Without being teamed you may end up in different instances, not seeing each other while being virtually at the same place.
  
You can find the condemned subway in [[Borealis]], [[West Athen]] and outside [[Rome|Rome Blue]].  
+
The upper level(s) of the subway actually resemble the feeling of a real subway station with shops, ramps and platforms. Guarded by Eumenides is the access tunnel to the lower, second part of the dungeon, which looks more like being part of a sewer (maintenance) system. As usual, the further you run into the dungeon, the more dangerous the mobs get.
 
 
'''Note:''' ''Don't go inside with friends without being teamed, if the place is full you may end up in two instances of the dungeon, teams always get in the same instance.Also it's unique bosses are impossible to kill without going beyond level 24 there and not exiting until you can kill them them (or you die).''

The entrance area is filled with billboards for various AO related items that might be familiar, including Helpbot, Gridstream Productions, Dovve's Maps (which is one of the older player-created maps in the game) and Nano Nanny among others.
+
== Loot ==
 +
Most of the mobs have standard loot, common to similar type mobs you find in missions and outdoors, including weapons, implants and clusters, first aid kits and so on
  
The subway has a few sections. The upper levels are full of criminal elements like muggers, looters, also old droids and filth fleas. You will come into a main area with entrances to the left and right. To the left you will find 6 shops that you can use to buy and sell items. There is another room past the shops, but it is a dead end with muggers and looters. The left side from the main area will lead you to the next section.  
+
Additionally, you may find '''Living Cyber Armor''' parts, pieces for the first Ergo Ring quest, Eleet dolls and Morphing Memories, slot 1 NCU chips which can be leveled up.
  
'''Note:''' ''Muggers will attack you on sight anywhere in the subway. ''

At this point you will face the first boss, who is not as tough as he may sound. The Strike Foreman is a level 19 mob, guarded by Workmen Strikers and Architect Strikers. He drops construction set items and sometimes he rarely drops a very nice pair of boots that have the nano Terrain Knowledge built into them, they are called the Boots of Infinite Speed. He is located in a corridor above the subway station that connects both sides of the station.

He rarely drops an upgradeable (right-click it) NCU ring which has Treatment requirement to wear. If you manage to take him down, be ready for [[Infector]]s and even more Slum Runners as you make your way down.

'''Vergil Aeneid'''  is a ''~level 29'' boss. He is pretty much at the end of the dungeon, guarding the lair of Abmouth.

As soon as you get to the bottom of a long spiral set of stairs an Uncontrollable Anger (yes that is its name) will be waiting for you. More Infectors and Slum Runners lie in waiting as you go deeper into the dungeon past the flying beast. You may notice that as you go deeper into the dungeon the room gets darker, so don't be surprised if a mob jumps you from a dark spot you may have missed. Also be aware that there are some areas where you will be blinded by mobs (and this means your screen will go black) so be careful because during those few seconds you may get attacked by other mobs you will not see until you regain your vision.
 
 
 
Getting closer to the end section of the subway there will be a slew of disgruntled failed Cyborg experiments like Fragmented Soul, Premature Pattern, Neural Burnout and others. I highly recommend you be with team of players 15+ to have a chance of survival here.
 
 
 
'''Note:''' ''All humanoid mobs from this point on are social, you attack one and they will all attack you, they also attack on sight. Higher level filth fleas (level 15-20ish) also will be found here, they drop the same loot as the weaker ones.''

Alright, you've made it to the final section of the Condemned Subway.
 
 
 
Don't get too happy, because things are going to get harder from here to the end.
 
Something you may miss the an area where there are Carbonrich Rocks (QL 20-60) which is the very raw material used in the process of making a nano crystal.
 
 
 
When you enter an area where there is a Bloodcreeper on the other side of the large room, instead of crossing to the other side, make a right turn and a door to the area where the rocks are will be there. Be careful of the Slum Runners there. I highly recommend you be with team of players 20+ to have a chance of survival here.
 
 
 
After the Bloodcreeper there will be more cyborgs and shadows. The third boss will be right after, guarded by two cyborgs.

You will find a few more cyborgs and at the last room a couple of Infectors guarding the boss' room. The room is pretty big, so you have space to maneuver and run away if you're alone, because Abmouth Supremus is impossible to fight on your own unless you have installed Alien invasion and shadowlands or gone beyond level 24(a few players have done this).For those who haven't done that you will need a team of 20+ with a well prepared doctor. I highly recommend that you also have other healer-type professions like Martial Artist or Adventurer in your team. An enforcer has the best chance to take the great damage he inflicts.

General information

File:Subway eingang.jpg
Click here for larger image.
The Condemned Subway is the first dungeon for newcomers to on Rubi-Ka.

It's made for low level players in the level range ~5 - 24.
Entering the dungeon is limited to level 24 max; while you can stay inside the dungeon and level beyond that you won't be able to reenter it once you've left it with a level 25 or higher. Warping into the dungeon is blocked (at least for players past level 24).

The subway can be entered in the cities Borealis, West Athen and outside the eastern gates of Rome (Rome Stretch, Pos: 174,874). There is a nonworking subway entrance in Newland City. All these entrances lead to different subways, even though the inside looks all the same.

Note: If you want to explore the subway with friends, make sure to pick the one where all of you can go to safely (there are omni/clan guards nearby the subways in West Athen and outside Rome (Blue)). Furthermore, team up before entering the subway; the dungeon is instanced. Without being teamed you may end up in different instances, not seeing each other while being virtually at the same place.

The upper level(s) of the subway actually resemble the feeling of a real subway station with shops, ramps and platforms. Guarded by Eumenides is the access tunnel to the lower, second part of the dungeon, which looks more like being part of a sewer (maintenance) system. As usual, the further you run into the dungeon, the more dangerous the mobs get.

Loot

Most of the mobs have standard loot, common to similar type mobs you find in missions and outdoors, including weapons, implants and clusters, first aid kits and so on

Additionally, you may find Living Cyber Armor parts, pieces for the first Ergo Ring quest, Eleet dolls and Morphing Memories, slot 1 NCU chips which can be leveled up.

See the description to the Quest for more info about the other Living Cyber Armor parts and how to obtain them.

The Violent Vagabonds drop the

which is needed for one of the newbie quests and

which is a nice social item.

There are several Striker named mobs in the subway which drop specific loot as well:
Workman Striker

Architect Striker

and their boss Striker Foreman (Level 19)

Unique Mobs

Eumenides

Subway unique eumenides.jpg

Eumenides is a level 20 boss guarding the lower part of the subway in one of the railroad tunnels. Respawntime: 30 Minutes

Drop:

Vergil Aeneid

Subway unique vergil aeneid.jpg

Vergil Aeneid is a ~level 29 boss. He is pretty much at the end of the dungeon, guarding the lair of Abmouth. Usually there are 2 mobs beside him, but they are in no way connected with Vergil in regard to spawning, but tend to share a similar aggro range and/or social aggro when Vergil is attacked.
Respawntime: 30 Minutes

Drop:

Abmouth Supremus

Subway unique abmouth supremus.jpg

Abmouth Supremus is the level 30 final boss of the Subway. Usually he is standing in a small pit at the very end, sometimes already guarded by 2 infectors. Latest if he gets attacked these 2 infectors will spawn. Killing them is required at times, however they will get respawned immediately. Let a calmer handle them if there is one available.
Respawntime: 30 Minutes, although it seems more like a 20-30 min respawn timer with lower than 100% chance of spawning

Drop:

The Belt and Juggler's Treat always drop together, it's either both of them or none; their drop chance is with a rough guess at about 30%.
