Ancient Turnip
The root of all smugness. It has grown under the meadow for a thousand years and finally has something to say.
Its numbers at its own level, 26. It grows to meet you: see the table below.
How the raid goes
- One shared health bar. It spawns at 5,419 raid points, and every party that joins adds 45 of its own windows' damage to it, less the later it joins: a party joining with a third of the time left adds a third of that, and never pushes the bar back up. The tougher the crowd, the tougher the boss: nobody melts it alone, and a lone hero of any level needs about the same number of windows.
- Windows of 20 seconds. Your party (you and your followers) fights the boss for a window, then waits 20 s for the next. Every action of your party that lands is a blow; a lone hero lands about 4–5 a window.
- The fallen stay down. A hero or follower who goes down in a window stays down for the rest of the raid, until a revive skill lifts them. If the whole party is wiped, the hero rests back to full health and can rejoin fresh.
- 25 blows and you're in. Full reward, the same for everyone who is in, whatever their damage, rare drops included. Fewer blows: a small consolation.
- 30 minutes on the clock. Kill it and everyone in gets the lot. If it escapes, the full reward still pays, at 50% of the XP and gold, with no uniques, no avatar and no podium.

Ancient Turnip meets every hero at that hero's own combat level, so the same fight is as hard at level 10 as at level 99. Its HP here is what it spawns with, as that hero sees it; the shared bar counts in raid points so everyone moves it at the same pace. XP and gold are the full reward for being in; the loot level is the item level of its gear drops.
Who gets what
25+ blows · in
1,818 XP and 340–560 gold at its own level (the table above has yours), plus the drops below. Anyone who dealt it damage also gets 1 boss-quality gem, and the best 3 get 1 more.
Podium · on a kill
The top 3 damage dealers of the heroes who are in get more gold: #1 +25%, #2 +15%, #3 +10%. The podium is mailed the Raid Legend chat icon.
#1 also rolls the common loot one more time and earns the title the Turnip Uprooter. Never the unique or the avatar.
Under 25 blows
303 XP and 60–110 gold (at its own level, grown to yours), and nothing rare. A thank-you for turning up.

Gear drops at your level's item level (the table above) with 3× magic find, so it rolls better than the field's. The raid-only gems are where the three raid legendaries come from, and the unique is the only place to find the unique. A pet egg turns up now and then too.
