I've had a few people PM me and have seen a few threads about the same questions so I'll compile a short FAQ and guide about Amoria PQ. This won't be very fancy, so if somebody wants to redo it or has anything to contribute, go for it.
Q: I'm not married, am engaged, or divorced. Can I still get into Amoria PQ?
A: No, only people who went through the wedding after purchasing an NX wedding ticket and are wearing a ring can enter.
Q: What level do you have to be to get in?
A: 40 seems to be the lowest I've heard. If you've personally gotten in below that let me know.
Q: How long do I have to PQ?
A: You get 75 minutes on the clock once Stage 1 begins. You get 60 seconds for Bonus when it begins.
Q: Do I have to be with my spouse in the party to get in?
A: No, you need to have a 6 person group of married people, but nobody has to have their spouse with them. You do however, need to have at least 1 male or female to do the first stage.
Q: Can I do APQ whenever I want?
A: There's a 6 hour waiting period after you exit the PQ before you can do one again.
Q: How much HP do I need to survive the whole PQ? I heard there's a Balrog at the end!
A: I'd say you need a minimum of 1500-1600 HP to survive. 2k+ would be better though. If you have somebody along with HB, that's very nice. Also know that he's immune to a lot of magic including poison and fire.
Q: This is so unfair, Nexon is greedy and I hate them for making you get married to do this.
A: No comment, other than they're a business, yada yada. Don't expect anything less.
What to do:
Assemble a group of 6 people, having at least 1 of both sexes in your group. Gather 10 Blue Keys from the Neon Eyes and White Boars that preceed Amos. Once you have the 10 keys, report to Amos and he'll give you a ticket in exchange for your keys. All 6 members must manually click him again to get into the main area. Once all your members are there, the leader should click on Amos again to get you in to Stage 1.
Stage 1 - Magik Mirror
The leader should click on Amos a few times until 3 green portals open up in front of you. Try each of the three portals until it transports you down below to the Glimmer Man. Leader talks to the Glimmer Man and he explains that you need to kill all the monsters on the map. The women go through the left side portal to kill monsters, the men go through the right side. Once all the monsters are defeated, the leader should talk to Amos again and the Magic Fairy will spawn on the map somewhere. Find her, kill her, and take her hammer. The member who finds the hammer drops it in front of the mirror and waits for the glass to shatter. The leader should take this shattered glass and give it back to the Glimmer Man. Once this is complete, go back up and talk to Amos again to get into Stage 2. 2000 exp for completion.

Stage 2 - Heart Strings
I've heard this is a combo of Kerning PQ stage 2, and an Orbis PQ stage, but as I've never OPQed I can't tell you for sure. Basically there's 3 portals that lead to 3 ropes. You'll need 5 members on the ropes, and the leader doing the clicking on the ground. You should sequentially do the ropes until you figure out the right combo. The ropes are sun, moon, and star. Go through the portal and jump and it'll take you to the top of the rope. You'll need to press up in order to hang onto the rope afterwards. Amos will tell you either that the weight is the same, or it's different. If it's the same that means you've got one of the numbers on the ropes correct. For example if you started off with 5 members on the 1st rope, 0 on the second, and 0 on the third, this could mean that any of the three have the right combo to it (Either 5, 0, or 0). If it says the weights are different, then you don't have anything correct. If you get it wrong a certain number of times you'll get monsters summoned on you and I believe the combo resets itself (verification on this?). Once you get the right combination, Amos will tell you and you advance to Stage 3. 3000 exp for completion.

Stage 3 - Twisted Switcher
This is similar to Ludi PQ stage 8. You'll see a series of stones to stand on marked with numbers and letters. You'll need to sequentially do the stones just like in Ludi PQ 8 until you figure out the right combination. The catch is though, everytime you get the answer wrong, monsters are summoned that can knock you off each time. if you've got people with area of effect skills (Arrow Rain, Dragon Roar, Lightning), these are all very handy. Proceed through the stones until you've figured out the right combo. My recommendation is to either have somebody with teleport doing the main moving around, unless you have somebody giving you max haste. It's much easier to move around from block to block with teleport, and kinda hard to get onto the bottom blocks unless you have a good amount of jump. 6000 exp for completion.

Stage 4 - Last Man Standing
Once you get into this stage, the leader should talk to Amos and he'll explain he needs you to bring him 50 Cupid Code Pieces. These can be found from the monsters in the room. Your party should collectively kill the monsters and drop about 10 each for the leader (Only the leader needs 50, not everyone in party). Once you have 50 pieces, meet back up at Amos at the top left and get ready for a very tricky Stage 5. 8000 experience for completion.
link
Stage 5 - Fluttering Hearts
This is probably one of the harder stages. I'd recommend before leaving stage 4 that everybody equips a melee weapon and knows where their swing button is. Once you know that, click on Amos to get into stage 5. Immediately, you'll be thrust into a room where monsters are stampeding you from the left side and you have to run to the right. In the back of the pack of the monsters are Rombots. If these rombots touch you, they'll do a lethal 10k hit to you, which should be auto-death. To avoid this, keep running right until you see the first gate. Everyone in your party needs to keep swinging at the gate until it opens. You'll see it throb to signify that you hit it (like whacking chests). Once the gate is open, keep holding right and it'll teleport you to the other side of it. You'll encounter a series of lava geysers as you attempt to make your way to the next gates. In total there's give or take 5-8 gates that you need to whack (Exact number, please?). The lava geysers will get greater in number and slow you down as you make your escape. They'll do about 275-325 damage each time, so a cleric healing you is handy. Also, teleport or speed effects won't come into play here. Once you make it all the way to the end of the gates and geysers and see Amos, and your entire party has made it, click Amos and he'll take you to the last stage. 9000 exp for completion.

Stage 6 - Love is Pain
Now for the fight against Geist Balrog. Everybody will be thrust into this battle, so make sure you can survive it. Like I said, you'll need minimum 1500-1600 HP to survive a hit from him. It takes a lot of ACC to hit him though, so be wary. You'll fight him in three forms, the first two go very fast. You'll see Jr Rog, Crimson Rog, then finally Geist Rog. He'll have a boss type HP bar at the top to help you track your progress. He teleports and flies around the screen doing his area of effect damage and also spreads his wings for another attack. He can also dispel you, so be aware if you're using Hyperbody or Magic Guard. He can also selectively invoke the physical or magical barriers that prevent you from doing anything but 1 damage at a time. If these come up, you'll haveta wait til it drops before damaging him. Also, there might be times when he flies off to the top left or top right of the screen and it might be hard to find him. You can use the ledges to teleport around the map to locate him. The bottom floor of the stage and also the ledges are lined with thorns to do minor damage and knock you off. Use these to your advantage to take minimal damage when Geist Balrog is attacking. After you successfully slay him, give the leader the Geist Fang to turn into Amos. Congrats, you just completed Amoria PQ! 11000 exp for completion.
