'''Papulatus''' is the clockwork boss of Ludibrium's Clocktower, fought in three forms. This page covers the quests that give you the Piece of Cracked Dimension, the door, and the fight.

== The Papulatus quests ==
All start in [[Map:Path of Time|Path of Time]] with [[NPC:Mr. Bouffon|Mr. Bouffon]] or [[NPC:Flo|Flo]].

|}
After that, Mr. Bouffon and Flo hand out more pieces: ''The Lost Piece of Crack'' and ''Papulatus's counterattack'' once a day each, and ''The Lost Medal'' every 3 days.

== The door and the fight ==
# In Deep Inside the Clocktower the party leader walks through the door. Without a party: "You are currently not in a party, create one to attempt the boss." A member: "Your party leader must enter the portal to start the battle." If someone is inside: "The battle against the boss has already begun, so you may not enter this place yet."
# Drop the Piece of Cracked Dimension on the crack in the arena. "The dimensional hole has been filled by the <Piece of Cracked Dimension>." The Time Sphere (16,000 HP) appears; killing it brings out the Papulatus Clock (23,000,000 HP, level 125, 596,000 EXP), then Papulatus (1,590,000 HP, 970,000 EXP, free-for-all loot).
# The Clock stuns for 3 seconds, slows for 10, dispels, heals, and has a huge-area lightning attack that sets HP and MP to 1. Below 95% HP it summons exploding Darkstars. Papulatus himself is level 125 with 1,000 magic attack.
# The Machine Apparatus in the arena lets you out. A cleared or timed-out run releases the door.

== Rewards ==
Only Papulatus drops loot: [[Item:Papulatus Certificate|Papulatus Certificate]] 100% (needed for the Dragon Squad quest), Elixir, Power Elixir, Reindeer Milk and Sunset Dew 100%, Papulatus Curl 40%, Dark Tachion 8%, two Mastery Books at 4.5%, and armour such as the Dark Arlic Helmet at 4%. Dark Token 100%.

== Common problems ==
* '''Cannot hand in to Flo:''' click her and choose her quest line first; the Thanatos room is just one more option in her menu.
* '''Pieces are quest-only:''' pieces A, B and C and the Tachion drop only while the matching quest is running.
* '''Members cannot enter:''' only the leader can open the door.
