The entrance to the Western Tiger Lair is located at (X:413 Y:101) in Western Tiger Tower, through a red crystal.
Like Northern Turtle Lair, this first crystal is the entrance to the lair itself, so the time will start counting down as soon as it's opened.
This lair also doesn't give any kind of prints.

Tips[]
- With every monster being of the metal element, fire defense and attack are strongly recommended. Secrets of the Fire Spirit will be a very efficient skill to use.
- This must be emphasized because many of the monsters in this lair have rather high health regeneration. They can also hit hard.
- Having your DPS consist of Wizard mains will be the most effective due to their many fire attacks and bosses having rather high physical defense.
- Use Purify on Tiger Servant Shadow, as it has a long-lasting super buff that makes it take a lot less damage.
- Without a tank, it can be rather hazardous to simply charge through the lair, especially since many of the monsters have debuffs.
- Demonic Western Tiger Soldiers can cancel skills and attacks; many of the tigers can use "Changing Weather", which will lower movement speed, attack speed, AND both defenses; the level 84 variants of Tower-Patrolling Spirits can use "Menacing" to lower movement speed and attack speed; some tigers can cast a numbing skill that prevents BOTH skill casting and attacking; and Bloodthirsty White Tiger Soldiers can use an aoe attack buff for the enemies.
- Changing Weather can be negated with Breeze Pills.
- For the skill and attack prevention debuff, use Attack Unsealing Bugs. Skill Unsealing Bugs will not work. Chant of Liberation can also help free another person if the user is able to cast a skill themselves.
- Demonic Western Tiger Soldiers can cancel skills and attacks; many of the tigers can use "Changing Weather", which will lower movement speed, attack speed, AND both defenses; the level 84 variants of Tower-Patrolling Spirits can use "Menacing" to lower movement speed and attack speed; some tigers can cast a numbing skill that prevents BOTH skill casting and attacking; and Bloodthirsty White Tiger Soldiers can use an aoe attack buff for the enemies.
- Western Tiger has same buff as Tiger Servant Shadow.
- This buff had an animation same as Better Blocker.
- This buff also provide HP regeneration.
- You cannot use Purify to Western Tiger.
- The only way to stop the buff is by destroying it by dealing enough magic skill damage, hence most of your DPS should be Wizards.
- Western Tiger will blind everyone in sight, turning most of the screen black and even removing some of the UI. You will want to re-target it by pressing Alt + A during the blind.
- Once it summons additonal monsters, it may be beneficial for whoever is tanking to move away from Western Tiger so damage dealers aren't targeting anything else by accident using this method.
- The major threat on the third and final floor is the electrical charge gimmick from Western Tiger Tower Secret Chamber. This will periodically deplete MP while damaging everyone in a small aoe radius. Unlike in the instance, however, this debuff will last 5 minutes.
- Keep a very close eye on your buffs. If there is a fire icon and you notice your MP is being drained (indicated by a pale-yellow number), that means you have a positive or negative electrical charge. You must head over to one of the Western Tiger Statues to change this into a neutral buff, which will greatly increase all your stats for a short time as well as preventing your teammates from dying and losing MP.
- DO NOT KILL THE STATUES.
- An easy way to handle the statues is to have someone use Red Claw Bugs to pull them closer to your raid group, so that there's less running.
- Keep yourselves spread out so you aren't killing each other with the electrical charges.
- The damage scales off of the inflicted person's magic attack. This turns the battle to be deadly.
