====== Buwaya Cave Instance Guide ======

Buwaya Cave is a challenging instance where you must face the powerful monster, Buwaya. It is part of the **"Secret in the Woods"** quest. This guide will walk you through the process of accessing and completing the instance.

===== Requirements =====
  * Base Level 130 or higher
  * A party is required to enter
  * Party leader must initiate the instance

===== Accessing Buwaya Cave =====
To enter Buwaya Cave, follow these steps:

  - **Location**: Go to the Guard at **ma_fild02 (312, 317)**.
  - **Level Check**: Ensure all party members are Level 130 or higher. If anyone is below Level 130, they will not be allowed to enter.
  - **Party Requirement**: You must be in a party to enter. The party leader is responsible for initiating the instance.
  
===== Steps to Enter =====
1. Talk to the Guard.
2. If you're the party leader, you will see the following options:
   - **Why is it so dangerous?**
   - **I'm here to hunt down Buwaya.**
   - **End conversation.**
   
3. Choose **I'm here to hunt down Buwaya** if your party is ready. If Buwaya is not available yet, the Guard will tell you to come back later.
4. Once the Guard opens the tunnel, you can enter the instance. Good luck!

===== Inside Buwaya Cave =====
Buwaya Cave has several mechanics you should be aware of:
  - There are **Kidnapped Residents** in the cave. Speak to them for hints on how to deal with Buwaya.
  - You will encounter Buwaya's weakness. Use it to damage him and proceed with the battle.
  - During the fight, Buwaya will place players inside treasure boxes. You need to follow the instructions given by the kidnapped residents to escape.

===== Defeating Buwaya =====
1. Buwaya has several attacks and will try to trap players in treasure boxes. Make sure to stay coordinated with your party.
2. Buwaya’s weakness is triggered by interacting with certain parts of the wall, as indicated by the **Kidnapped Residents**. Hitting these spots will cause Buwaya to take significant damage.
3. Defeat Buwaya’s minions as they appear, then focus on Buwaya himself.

===== Escape the Cave =====
After defeating Buwaya, a message will appear from the Guard, urging you to escape the cave. To exit:
  - Find the **Cave Out** NPC and select the option to leave.
  - You will be teleported back to **ma_fild02**.

===== Tips =====
  - Make sure to heal regularly and watch out for status effects such as Poison and Bleeding, which are common in this instance.
  - Coordinating with your party and communicating during the fight is crucial to success.

Good luck on your adventure!
