Vet Undaunted Pledges

Anyone know a site that lists what you need to do for each undaunted quest for gold key? Since I've come back to the game it doesn't tell me the step needed to get gold. Before I quit, which was around 2 months or so before Imp City, I remember doing vet undaunted, and it would tell me ex: stay out of whatever during last boss. Now it says to kill bosses, and optional kill all of the bosses allies or some *** like that.

I'm on Ps4 so I've been doing group finder as non of my friends play anymore, I'm in 2 guilds but I don't know anyone in them, I mostly PvP, but I do want to try and get some good stuff from gold chests. Since I've come back, all I get is silver keys :/

    Banished Cells - leave 3 daedroth up
    Spindleclutch - dont kill the restrained people
    Fungal grotto - dont go into the obsidian shards bubble
    Wayrest sewers - kill all the zombies in the room during the boss fight
    Darkshade caverns - dont use the levers in the center
    Elden hollow - read the book and survive hardmode
    Crypt of hearts - leave 4 wraiths alive by the time he draws the sword (36%)
    City of ash - read the book and survive hardmode
    White gold tower - read the book and survive hardmode
    Imperial city prison - read the book and survive hardmode

    So the parts where it says survive hardmode, does that mean you can't die at all, or dont die during final boss?

    Its really just if one person is still alive after the fight. The book is what activates gold key eligability. As long as you have read it before the fight, you will get gold key after defeating the boss.


    Each gold key is tied to the hardmode if each dungeon. Look under achievements/dungeons/veteran dungeons/ X dungeon.

    I suppose I should say what happens after reading each book


    Elden hollow - the boss will now have white spirit healers that you can kill, interrupt, or ignore (with higher dps)
    City of ash - two platforms will blow up. This limits your safe areas and makes the fight more of a dps check.
    White gold tower - things move faster. Especially the 'lawnmower.' The 'lawnmower' stays up through the static spark phase.
    Imperial city prison - i have the dang thing on farm and i really dont know. People tell me the portals move faster, but its barely noticeable.

    In the boss room. You should see a quest arrow over them.

    Elden - table to the left, up the stairs to the boss platform
    Ash - pedastal at the far right corner (run through the lava)
    Tower - pile of books next to where you enter
    Prison - brasier between the arch doors to the room

    Well, yes and no.

    They are the only ones with specific modes. The other hardmode challenges rely on the players themselves to interract with the mechanics differently. The short descriptions I gave where you interract with adds for example, in BC and CoH you avoid killing adds and this gives more stress to the healer and the person with agro. In wayrest, you bring additional adds into the fight, also raising potential risks. Darkshade and fungal have mechanics where you use the bubble or the levers to avoid a mechanic. Choosing to ignore those avoidance tactics means dealing with said mechanic.
