Interlude – Organizational Issues




















Now that all Guild Leaders are available it's time for further planning. Until here I played the first 8 groups.

These will add now Guild Leaders (where possible).

In parallel, I will continue Leif, Iaido, Zed, Gando and M1 also in solo mode (I just create copies of the complete folders as they are now). These are prefixed by "S-" (columns I-M).

Furthermore I'll start 4 new games, with the other characters – one per Guild (Fighters-Wizards, columns O-R). The stuff until unlocking the Guild leaders will be added to part 1.

I copy Leif for another game to add the fifth member of each guild – which come late in the previous four games (game "5", column S).

Finally I fork Leif into three other groups for the Champions of the Crypt. Sonja, who has not yet found a place in the first 4 slots of the other games, will also be added here (columns T-V).

To get an overview, who is in which group, see table "Champion Groups".

Fighters-Wizards: games added and played until here also, notes so far added to part 1.

Aim 44 – Reincarnate Guild Champions




















Summary
We fill up all "incomplete" Champion Groups (except of solo groups of course) now to 4 Champions.

For most groups this is quite easy – only the Champions of the Crypt take a little time later.







--- --- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- Reincarnate Halk. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- X X X X --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Reincarnate Leyla. Leyla comes with a Rope, an Emerald Key and a SAR Key. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

Aim 45 – The Crypt 2 – Detailed Exploration




















Summary
We explore the Crypt – where we only rushed through before – more detailed now.

The last three Champion groups will recruit some champions here.

Another big question here is, whether we should use any of the 5 teleporting altars already. According to my level-by-level approach, I don't.







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Take with you a Gold Key for the Dungeon Crypt of Amber. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Dwarves, Necro: take with you a Gold Key or 3 Bones for Crypt Champions (I take the Gold Key). --- --- --- --- --- X X ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Lor: take with you a Gold Key or 1 Bones for Crypt Champions (I take the Bones). --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Lor: take with you a Snapdragon for Crypt Champions. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the entrance room of the Crypt and go through the western passage. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 45 A – The 4-Pit-Room




















Summary
We harvest another Corbum.







X X X X X X X X X X X X X You are now in a room with 4 pits. North of them is a grate door with a Gold lock. Beyond the pressure plate you see the remains of the door that we fireballed before. In the West you see the Dungeon Crypt of Amber – secured by another Gold lock. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Let's see what is beyond the 4 pits first. Open the door with a Gold Key (or lockpick it...). If you step forward, you see some treasure in an altar. I lockpick it. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- As soon as you enter the next square after the door a Greater Mummy appears and attacks you.
I take the treasures as described in the next section...		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The Greater Mummy

The pits are illusions! If you enter one of the southern pits, you can just sidestep and take the treasures without being disturbed by the mummy!

To get less damage from the poison clouds you can do the following:
1. sidestep in front of the treasures
2. take one item
3. sidestep again
4. put the item into your inventory
5. repeat until you have them all		 X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Beware of the poison clouds when taking the treasures: Mail Aketon, Leg Mail and a Corbum. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 45 B – The Dungeon Crypt of Amber




















Summary
We explore the Crypt – where we only rushed through before – more detailed now.

The last three Champion groups will recruit some champions here.







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go to the other Gold lock and open it with a Gold Key. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Another Option to open the Gold Key Door

You can climb down one of the 4 southern pits in the Dwarven Maze to enter the Dungeon Crypt of Amber. Thus you would save a Gold Key – at the cost of being blocked by enemies without an escape. Near the door you see Manacles. Touch them to open the door.

I spend a Gold Key here since I don't know whether my solo groups would survive this (and I think, I have enough Gold Keys in the meantime).		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X There are two groups of 4 Skeletons here and an Ettin. Kill them if you encounter them. The Ettin drops an Emerald Key. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Dungeon Crypt of Amber – Tactics for the Weak (Maleficients...)

To avoid that anything escapes from here, I hold back the Ettin with the Tree of Fear and Courage (Brandish works rather fine) and try to take out the Skeletons first with Fireballs. Afterwards (sometimes after some sleeping) I work on the Ettin (yes, it's hard work!).		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X I cleanup the area first, then return to the entrance and look for treasures. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Switch to labyrinth mode (go always right). X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Touching the next altar here gives the message "Who awoke me" and summons a Spectre in front of you as soon as you step back. This works only once. I touch it. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the next VI altar you find Gauntlets. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- In the next altar you find Ashes. I don't take them. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- In the next niche you find a Rock on the ground. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the next altar you find a unique, cursed and vampyric Dagger. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the next VI altar you find a Helm. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X If you watch the next altar carefully you can see some movement there. If you touch it you hear laughter and get the message "Life at last... Be blessed my little recipients... You will bear my soul... Ha ha ha...". A Lich is summoned in front of you as soon as you step back. I touch it and Fury (or Fireball) does the job. Although the altar is still moving afterwards, nothing more seems to happen. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the next altar you find an Iron Key. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the next altar you find the Scroll "Resurrection spell ZO VI EW mages help me many secrets I know". What?!? We add this to our list... X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Furthermore you find here the (cursed) Old Bones of Lor. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The Lor King

If you put a Snapdragon into the Altar, you can resurrect/reincarnate the Lor King. You can do this before or after taking Scroll and Bones (and even in between). Just touch the Altar again to let him join you.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Reincarnate Lor. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Soon we reach the Altar of Love. Touching it teleports you deep into the dungeon. We explore this later. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the next altar you find the Scroll "Only the bleeding kipper can defeat Vecna the Lich". X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Exit the Dungeon Crypt of Amber. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 45 C – Champions of the Crypt – Dwarven Ancestors
(Dwarves only!)




















Summary
We reincarnate Champions for the Dwarves group. We only rush through now. Detailed exploration of the areas follows soon.







--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Take the path to the North described in Aim 42 D through the illusionary wall and to the Northwest until you reach the junction. --- --- --- --- --- X --- ---

(Necro only!)




















Summary
We reincarnate Champions for the Necro group. We only rush through now. Detailed exploration of the areas follows soon.







--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Take the path to the North described in Aim 42 D through the illusionary wall and to the Northwest until you reach the junction. --- --- --- --- --- --- X ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Go west. After five steps turn north. The wall here is illusionary, go through. Hurry to the next junction – there is a pit trap that opens shortly (and closes again) after you entered it on your way... Continue west, then south. --- --- --- --- --- --- X ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- You end at a Gold lock with the inscription "New lives for old bones" on the wall to your left. Use a Gold Key to open the lock. --- --- --- --- --- --- X ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Return to the pit trap, go through the illusionary wall and follow the path to the Southwest. At the end turn around and go to steps back (to the East). Another illusionary wall. You see a pressure plate. Step onto it (you hear a wall moving). Return where you came from. A passage to the South has opened. 4 Spectres await you. --- --- --- --- --- --- X ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Going south you come into a room where you can find 4 tombstones. You can hire the Necromancy Guild from them. The tombstones vanish after use. --- --- --- --- --- --- X ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Reincarnate Skelar. --- --- --- --- --- --- X ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Reincarnate Necro. Necro comes with 2 Skullseeds. --- --- --- --- --- --- X ---

(Lor only!)




















Summary

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Reincarnate Deth. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X

























































Aim 45 F – Guilds: Equip new Champions
(Dwarves, Necro and Lor only!)




















Summary
We return to the Guilds to equip our new Champions. Lor group additionally reincarnates Sonja, who is in no other group yet. Thus each Champion is in at least one group.





























--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Return to the Guilds. --- --- --- --- --- X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Lor:
Reincarnate Sonja. Sonja comes with a Mace.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- All groups except the Solo ones have 4 Champions now. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Touch the hand on the wall to gain Ninja experience. This resulted in 1-2 Ninja Levels for Srtamin, Skelar and Lor. --- --- --- --- --- X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Note
Dwarves: since the Dwarven Ancestors have 0 Mana each, I equip them with some Mana supplying items.
Lor: the same is true for Sonja.		 --- --- --- --- --- X --- X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Equip new Champions with Weapons. --- --- --- --- --- X X X

Aim 45 G – The Central Hall




















Summary
There are 9 pressure plates here: one in the center and one in each direction from there: N, NE, E, SE, ...

Furthermore there are lots of illusionary walls...







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go through the northern fireballed door. Don't forget that skeletons spawn behind you when you leave the pressure plate north of the door.

Note: it might be less work to return to the Temple, go down the stairs near the High Priest to Sewers and Mines and climb down a pit here.		 X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- There are 9 pressure plates here: one in the center and one in each direction from there: N, NE, E, SE, ...

Here is a list what all these pressure plates do (counter-clockwise):
S: summons 1-4 Skeletons (often 4!)
SE: summons 1 lesser Skeleton
E: summons 1 Reaper
NE: removes a wall
N: summons 1-4 Zombies
NW: removes a wall
W: summons 1-4 Ghosts
SW: summons 1-4 Greater Mummies

A Gold Key is also lying here in the center.

Whenever you leave one of the "Summon"-squares, monsters are summoned. So it might be a good idea to leave them backwards (or not enter them anyaway). This does not work for the "Rive-Square" where the Gold Key lies.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- We do a complete round now (counter-clockwise) – but will omit 2 of the pressure plates! --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X SE: defeat the lesser Skeleton. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X E: defeat the Reaper. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Note: The wall east of the Reaper pressure plate is illusionary and leads to the Dwarven Ancestors room. But if you go through from here, you might be attacked by Ghosts and by the Reaper behind! I don't go through. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- NE: omit this pressure plate for now, we do it soon. If you go here the passage to the Dwarven Ancestors is opened and Ghosts can flood the area. The two walls next to the pressure plate are illusionary. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X N: defeat Zombies. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- NW: omit this pressure plate for now, we do it soon. If you go here the passage to the Necromancy Guild is opened and Spectres can flood the area. The two walls next to the pressure plate are illusionary. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X W: defeat Ghosts. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Note: The wall west of the Ghost pressure plate is illusionary and leads to the Necromancy Guild room. But if you go through from here, you might be attacked by Spectres and by the Ghosts behind! I don't go through. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Note: There is another illusionary wall two square south. I don'use it also. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- SW: we omit the Greater Mummies. If you get 4 and they spread out over the area, you're gonna have a hard time (not to mention all those illusionary walls where they can go through – we have some Ghosts still running around due to these walls, that's enough...). --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go to the center and take the Gold Key. I take it from the side without entering the pressure plate. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- We continue with the side passages going from the central hall – again counter-clockwise. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

























































Aim 45 H – The Dwarven Ancestors




















Summary
You can hire some Champions here and find the Horn of Fright.







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Step onto the northeastern pressure plate to open the passage to the Dwarven Ancestors room, then go three steps east and turn south. There are about 6 Ghosts in here and this is a good place to welcome them... X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X At the junction first go east then north to find a stairs down. We put it on our list. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Return and go south this time. You come into the room of Dwarven Ancestors. There are three dwarven portraits on the walls here. You can unlock them one by one by putting Bones into the portraits or all together with a Gold Key (see Aim 45 C). --- --- --- --- --- ((X)) --- ---
X --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- Zed comments: "One of my ancestors had dwarven blood. Upon his death there was a dispute about a heirloom. A horn. The dwarves refused to let it go in human hands... --- --- X --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Furthermore the unique Horn of Fright is lying around in an alcove. If you take it, 4 more Ghosts appear blocking your way back. Kill them. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The Horn of Fright
While this Horn normally gives
Blow Horn / Confuse / Invoke,
For Zed it gives
Blow Horn / TBD / Storm

The Horn of Fright makes a great sound, if you drag it on your eye to look at it. You must be an Expert Priest to hear that.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The wall north of the Horn is illusionary (but leads onto the Reaper Generator). --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go back and continue northwest until you reach a junction. You have been here already for taking the Monk Staff. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 45 I – The Northeastern Part




















Summary
We meet Pit D again and solve some minor riddles.







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go north until the pit. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Look over the pit, if you see Skeletons there, you might send them fier greetings... X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Two squares later you see an altar. Turn right to look at it. It reveals as the Altar of Rose. Touching it teleports you deep into the dungeon. We explore this later. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- You end at a Gold lock with the inscription "New lives for old bones" on the wall to your left. Using a Gold Key unlocks the Dwarven Ancestors in their room, so that you can hire them. --- --- --- --- --- ((X)) --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Close Pit D by touching the hole left of the inscription. It cannot opened again (at least not here...). X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The path to the South leads to a stairs down to be explored later. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go to the eastern pit. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The wall in the south is illusionary. Go through. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X You come into a small room, where you find a Katana and Hosen. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X There is also green button here that opens and closes Pit D. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the junction south of Pit D. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- This is a good opportunity to return to the Guilds if you are overloaded or low on food or water. Coming back you could continue here climbing down Pit D or the pit west of it in the Dwarven Fortress. Or (what I prefer) you can come down via the Dwarven Obituary Hall. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

Aim 45 J – The Dwarven Obituary Hall




















Summary
We continue exploration of the Crypt now using the entrance to the Dwarven Obituary Hall.







--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Note:
You should have a Champion with high Strength (70 or even more) to gain a certain object later. Take Snapdragons or SAR Wine of Titans with you, if you haven't.

I didn't, since I always had Leif in my group in earlier games...		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Take the Elevator to the Dwarven Mines. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go far to the East (I take the path north of the forge) and then south. When you reach the stairs go down to the Dwarven Obituary Hall. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X There are about 10 (lesser?) Skeletons to be fought here. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X To your left is a black door. If you look at the demon face there you get the message "The dark councillor locked the head of the council in the dwarven fortress and stole the powergem". We put this on our list (under "Items"). X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Inscription "Hall to the dwarven fortress" on a western wall. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Another inscription "The way of our ancestors" on a western wall. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Next to it is a green button... We do not use it yet, since we first want to explore the complete Obituary Hall. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Inscription "The dwarven obituary hall" on an eastern wall. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X S-M1: There are several Boulders here an in the North also lots of Ashes on the ground. I lifted all of them, to check that nothing is hidden under them. Found nothing. Did this only for S-M1 and hope there is also nothing for the other groups! --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X A silver coin is also lying around here. I take it. It is not always on the same square! In most games the Silver Coin was just lying around open – but it can be hidden under Ashes also. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Next you see is a pit your right. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Stamm says that this pit is the only remaining way to the Moria. Only the strong ones can survive there. X --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Important Place

The entrance to Moria. Stamm is not right, when he says this is the "only" entry. You can access Moria at least from the Spiders level also (although it's the same pit...).		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Finally you find some Bones. If you are an expert Priest they read as "Some sort of acid burnt these bones". A Scroll reading "Spiders... Spiders everywhere... Their poison is running through my veins as I write these notes" is also here. I take both. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X There are two stairs going down here. We put them on the list. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- In the next alcove you find the Scroll "Stairs of Ashes". I leave it there. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the green button and press it. It opens (and closes) a passage to the Dwarven Ancestors room. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go through and follow the path to northwest that leads to Pit D. But at the junction go west this time. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 45 K – The Northwestern Part




















Summary
More riddles, another Altar, and more stuff for our list...







X X X X X X X X X X X X X From the junction go 2 steps west, 1 step north and 3 steps west into an illusionary wall (this keeps the southern door closed). Turn right and hurry to the next junction – there is a pit trap that opens shortly (and closes again) after you entered it on your way... X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Take the northern path first. It ends at an alcove with a Blast Spore. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the junction, go west and north again. Look at the Altar to reveal it as the Altar of Ancient Doors. Touching it teleports you deep into the dungeon. We explore this later. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Continue west. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- At the next passage to the south is a Skull lock on the right wall. If you use a Skeleton Key here, 6 walls in the neighbourhood vanish, revealing lots of stuff and a pit.

Only groups M4 and M4-1 have a Skeleton Key so far, and they might probably need it for their quest, so I could not convince them to use it here... We put the Skull lock on our list. Let's hope that the key is quite near.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Going south you see at a Gold lock with the inscription "New lives for old bones" on the wall to your left. Using a Gold Key unlocks the Necromancy Guild in their room, so that you can hire them. --- --- --- --- --- --- ((X)) ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Continue west. Soon you arrive at a stairs down (to be explored later). --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X There is also a door here and a green button on the left wall. Open it. It cannot be closed again. On the other side you see a Gold lock. From there it could have been opened with a Gold Key – so we have saved another one! X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go up the stairs. You are now in the northeastern corridor of the Dwarven Mines. X X X X X X X X
X X --- --- --- --- --- X X --- --- --- --- To your left is a door. It can be bashed, but not opened in another way. Even Fireball doesn't work.

Fighters: for Leif Strength 71 was sufficient.
Dwarves: for Srtamin 77 was sufficient, 72 was not!

Looks like the necessary Strength is champion-dependent...

Since some groups were notable to open the door, we add it to our list.		 X --- --- --- X X X X
Leif Leif --- --- --- --- --- Halk Leif --- --- --- --- Champion who opened the door. Leif --- --- --- Leif Leif Leif Sonja
72 74 --- --- --- --- --- 89 74 --- --- --- --- Strength of that Champion. 71 --- --- --- 74 74 74 75
--- --- Iaido Zed Gando Curse Curse --- --- Iaido Zed Gando Curse Best Champion who could not open the door. --- Alex Zed Chani --- --- --- ---
--- --- 64 65 61 22 22 --- --- 64 65 61 21 Strength of that Champion. --- 68 63 63 --- --- --- ---
X X --- --- --- --- --- X X --- --- --- --- Behind it you find unique Powertowers. They weigh 8,1 kg but give you Strength +10 which increases your load by about 8 kg. X --- --- --- X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Continue to the South. Soon, a wall closes and you stand before a pit... Looks like this one should be explored. Gando tells you something about spiders (he needs rather long until he talks). We add the pit to our list.

Note: the closing wall sometimes rumbles and sometimes doesn't.		 X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Great, we have solved one issue of our list (explored the path here) only to get up to two new ones (Powertowers and pit)... --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the stairs and go down. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 45 L – The Necromancy Guild and the Altar of Nightmare




















Summary
You can hire the Champions of the Necromancy Guild here and find some treasure.
The Hall of Dead with Vecna and the Altar of Nightmare are also here – but will be explored later.







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go back to the last illusionary wall. From there go to the Southwest. Go through one of the illusionary walls into the Central Hall. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Step onto the northwestern pressure plate to open the passage to the Necromancy Guild room, then go three steps west and turn south. A passage to the South has opened. 5 Spectres await you. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Going south you come into a room where you can find 4 tombstones. You can unlock them one by one by putting Bones into the portraits or all together with a Gold Key (see Aim 45 D). The tombstones vanish after use. --- --- --- --- --- --- ((X)) ((X))
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In an alcove you find Skullseeds, a Plasma and a Mace. I take the Skullseeds and the Mace and leave the Plasma there. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The wall opposite of the alcove is illusionary (but leads onto the Ghost Generator). --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X There is another illusionary wall to the Central Hall south of it. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X There are two inscriptions on the southern walls: "Vecna the Lich" and "Hall of Deads". When Zed steps in front of the passage to the South, he says "We should not tarry here... No mortal can fight a Lich...". X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- So we omit Vecna now and put her on our list. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Next we go through the grate door in the North. At least we try it... There are two blinking teleporters behind that knock you back. Looks like we have to reduce to grey load, to rush through.

Note: it is possible with yellow load also, but it's rather hard. You have to step forward onto the teleporter, while it is still there shortly before it vanishes.		 X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Looks like monsters can't enter this room. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Inside you see an altar, an alcove and a bookshelf. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Look at the Altar to reveal it as the Altar of Nightmare. When you step here, the teleporters are switched off. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Touching the altar teleports you deep into the dungeon. We explore this later. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the alcove you find an Eckhart Cross and an Iron Key. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The bookshelf contains the Scroll "Necromancy use snapdragon seeds as components.". X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go back to the Guilds (via Dwarven Obituary Hall stairs and Dwarven Elevator). I don't use the way through the Entrance Hall to avoid spawning more Skeletons and Spectres. X X X X X X X X

Interlude – Selecting a Stairs to enter the Spider Level




















We have finshed the main part of the Crypt now. As usual some open areas were not yet explored. It's time to go deeper - but where?

Since there is a wall that can only be opened from the side of the Tomb of Druafang, I think it's best to go down there.

But first we visit the Fur Trader again.
































































Aim 46 – Spiders




















Summary
Lots of riddles, lots of spiders, lots of traps...







--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Statue Riddles

Be careful with the Statues that provide Riddles. You get the Riddle messages only, when you look at them, not when you just pass them by. So, look at all statues, to make sure to get them all.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Ra Doors

There are a lot of Ra Doors called Cobwebs on this level. Most of them can be bashed or fireballed. Sometimes they simply vanish after a short time.

I also got the impression that sometimes monsters are trapped under them. But I don't know how this is activated or deactivated...

Anyway, we don't bother too much here. Why do we have Swords and Fireballs?		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Dragon Claw Walls

Most of these walls spawn a Spider when touched – sometimes quite far away. Since most of them seem to be weak (at least the ones that I tested definitely), I touch all of them.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Dead Ends

There are some dead ends on this level consisting of just two squares, where you cannot enter the second one (you can check this with thrown items which are thrown back all the time until they fall down). Stepping onto the first one of these two squares normally generates a spider somewhere.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---






















--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X --- S-Gando: when reloading the game here I got "System Error 0x0000ccb7 Recursive timer search" and the game window closed. Had to go back to an earlier backup.

Luckily the csbgame.bak, which I took just before cleaning inventory, worked.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---



































Another Important Note: Gigglers in Guilds

During testing Level 6, when I climbed down the pit east of the entrance to Moria and used the teleporter to the Guilds in Level 7 I encountered 2 Gigglers in the Guilds (in another test Vexirks)!!!

As it looks, whereever you go down to Level 7, this activates the Gigglers and Vexirks in the Portal Room and lets them teleport.

I verified this for the following places:
1. Pit to Moria
2. Pit to the Portals Room
3. Stairs down at {6,15,9}
4. Stairs down at {6,15,14}

Especially if you climb down the pit to Moria you can here these guys teleporting away...

I don't want to have Gigglers in the Guilds – especially since there is another teleporter here where they can vanish and you can't follow them...







X X X X X X X X X X X X X The Guilds are NOT save. You can meet Gigglers here (and also Vexirks). Thus I put now most "unimportant" items (who really knows, which ones are unimportant and which not?!?), that I just dropped onto the ground so far, into alcoves in the Guilds and the Wine Cellar hoping they can't be stolen there...

Aim 46 B – The Grave of Druafang




















Summary
We fight a Spiked Wyrm and find some nice treasure (Dexhelm, Furx, spells).







X X X X X X X X X X X X X A Spiked Wyrm waits here. Try getting behind it. An illusionary wall behind the demon face might help with this. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the illusionary wall you see a door and a lock. You can open the door with an Emerald Key. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Inside you find a Dexhelm, Skullseeds and a Scroll that unlocks the spell "ZO BRO NETA – Ultimate Sacrifice". This spell needs skullseeds in one of the casters hands. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The Dexhelm

The Dexhelm gives a Champion Dexterity +10, but he loses 8 Wisdom per minute. Each time Wisdom is lost, the weapon hand of the first Champion (not the one wearing the Dexhelm!) becomes unusable for a short time. So you can equip the Dexhelm to another Champion and put the first one into the second row to be not disturbed during fights.

Furthermore, the champion speaks a lot of strange (or better: silly) stuff when Wisdom is lost. But sometimes (rarely) he might give useful hints, such as "North of the end of the river there is a mechanism to open the flooding gates. Hidden behind a tree.". Same text that you get from the two statues in the Sewers.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X There is also a Ra door in this room. You can open it with a Ra Key or lockpick it (15 tries). X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X If you step in you here a wall moving... X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the southern alcove you find a SAR Shield, the cursed and unique sword Furx and the Remains of Druafang. Furx gives you 3 points. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 46 C – The Southeast




















Summary
We fight the Golem that we met earlier already...







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Going back, you'll notice a wall has vanished in the East. I "switch on" labyrinth mode here and go always to the right. So I go to the South first. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- X --- --- Encountered a Spider which dropped Bones... just near where later the Bone Doll sings... --- X X --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Soon you'll arrive at another door and a strange looking lock with the inscription "The Arrogant". Through the door you might see, who awaits you. The lock can be opened with a simple Iron Key. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go in and fight. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Afterwards look for Druafangs statue. Touch the statue with a Scroll (good that we just found one...) to solve the first statue riddle. You get the Scroll "Sunlight – DES IR RA" in turn. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the vanished wall. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Two more ways go to the North and South here. In the northern one you see Bones and a Wooden Shield. Go to the South first. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- X X --- --- --- --- --- --- The Bone Doll sings... And it makes me wonder
And I wonder what to do here and put it on the list		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In a niche you can find an Amber Worm in a wall. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X At the end step left into the wall. You look now into the room where you met the Golem. Search and kill it (I use Gauntlets' Punch). X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The Golem drops a Stone Club and a Blast Spore. I take only the Blast Spore. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Check the area including the path to the North for stuff from drowned Gigglers. Nothing found. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the Bones and the Wooden Shield. Take them. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 46 D – To the North







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Continue north. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Most of Dragon Claw walls seem to trigger Spider generators (sometimes far away) – even if they don't make a sound! I'll touch them all. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X 2 Dragon Claws touched. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Stepping onto the grate in the next dead end to your right seems to spawn a spider in the East. I enter it. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X At the next junction go to the right. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X 2 Dragon Claws touched. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Encountered a Giggler who dropped a Gold Key. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The next statue reminds you of Prometheus' gift. Touch it with a normal torch to gain a Glowing Stone. Do not waste the Eternal Torch here. X X X X X X X X
X --- X X X X X X X X X X X Continue to the end. On the ground you find a Magic Purse.
Leif: did not find one!		 X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Touching the wall at the end spawns a spider in front of it as soon as you step back. I touch it. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the junction and go west. You come into a small room with 4 other exits... one to the East, North and West each and a stairs down in the West. Be cautious: from the western passage, Spiders might come here – and they might come faster than you can kill them. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- --- --- It might be a good idea to take out 3-4 Spiders before continuing (if you're strong enough...) – maybe even more. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Take the passage to the East first. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X Encountered a Spider which dropped a Mace. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X 2 Dragon Claws touched. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Soon you'll find a Kath Vinegar on the ground before a wall with 4 red eyes (?). Not sure why it is here, I just take it. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The wall is – as expected – a Spider generator. Touching it spawns a spider in front of it as soon as you step back. I don't touch it. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Behind a Ra door to the North you reach two stairs. The northern one leads to the crypt near Pit D. I go up and down again. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The other one leads into a small room full of spiders. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go up and kill them for some VEN Eggs. Afterwards, this looks like a good place for resting. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go down the stairs, return to the room with lots of exits and go to the North. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 46 E – The Phasing Shower – Part 1







X X X X X X X X X X X X X After passing another RA door, you see the inscription "The Phasing Shower" to your right. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X To your left you see one or more VEN Eggs. Take them. X --- --- X X X X X
X X X X X X --- X X X --- X X There might also be Bones here (most probably from the Bones-carrying Spider, see Aim 46 C). Take them. --- --- --- X X X X X
X --- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- There might also be a Mace here (from the Mace-carrying Spider, see Aim 46 D). Take it. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The Phasing Shower

The wiki map says here for {6,18,6}: "Bones, rope, many VEN Eggs. You are hit by a spell which is triggered when entering and leaving this place. Try to lure a worm from the secret treasure room around {6,27,9} here. After you kill the Council the following items appear here: rapier, fury, saphire, crown of pride, SAR key."

Some notes about this:
1. I didn't see a Rope. Was it stolen by a Giggler?!? And not all groups did see Bones...
2. The spell was triggered, but didn't hit me.
3. If you lure a worm here, the fountains get filled! Chani (of course...) will give a hint about this later. Spiders do not work!!!		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Stepping onto the next square in the North spawns a Spider in the East. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Touching the statue here closes (and opens) Pit D in the North. I close it. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Going to the West in front of the pit also spawns a Spider in the East. I go there. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Next you see are two more Dragon Walls. I touch them both. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X A door to the North opens and closes unregularly. Behind it you can get a Spitter Berry. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The next Cobwebs open to a larger room. To your left you see the statue of Atlas. We deal with him a little later. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the South you see two more Dragon Claw walls. I touch both. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Now step onto the grate near Atlas. A Spider might spawn near you and Stamm (if you have him in your party) reminds you, that this is the only way to Moria. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- I go down here soon but not now! Read the next violet passage, if you want to know why. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The Pit to Moria

Climbing down here activates Gigglers and Vexirks in the Portals Room in the East. These guys have nothing better to do than using the Portals there to teleport themselves away – even into the Guilds quite often!

The same is true for the other pit to the Portals Room.

So I prefer going down here as late as possible – definitely not now!
 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The stairs up in the South ends near the Dwarven Ancestors room. You can get a Boulder there for Atlas. I go up and down again (and don't take the Boulder). X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Two more Dragon Claws on the southern walls. Touched. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ... and a small switch between them, which we will touch soon. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The wall with 4 red eyes in the southeastern corner is – as expected – a Spider generator. Touching it spawns a spider in front of it as soon as you step back. I touch it. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Next I go up the other stairs in the Northeast. It leads to the Dwarven Obituary Hall. Do not hesitate on the square in front of the stairs.

If you step onto that square and wait for 3-4 seconds a pit opens and you fall through into a portal room. From there you can teleport to places in the first 7 levels (except the Sewers). I don't go down here now and put this pit on my list.		 X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The Portals Room

There are Gigglers and Vexirks here, who can teleport also, even into the Guilds (see also beginning of Aim 46). Since I never before saw Gigglers in the Guilds, I suppose they are prevented from teleporting there as long as you don't go down here (or into the pit to Moria).

Furthermore, if they steal an important item from you and then vanish through one of the teleporters, you might run into trouble finding them again.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X This is a good opportunity to return to the Guilds if you want to unload. I do it (for all groups). X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Note: in case you have more items than you can carry, the alcove here near the stairs is a good place to store them temporarily. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the Obituary Hall, I go to the southern stairs and up to the Dwarven Mines. And there to the Elevator to the Guilds. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Unload... X X X X X X X X

Aim 46 F – The Phasing Shower – Part 2







--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Important Note

This is the last opportunity to save stuff lying on the ground in the Guilds into alcoves. We will activate a mechanism soon that lets Gigglers teleport into the Guilds.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Take with you Furx and a coin (for uncursing Furx). X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Take with you a Shining and an Arrow (for riddle statues). X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go to the temple and uncurse Furx (don't forget to take a coin with you). I use a Silver Coin. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X From there go down to the Sewers and the Mines. Go to the Dwarven Forge. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Climbing down the northern pit from the Dwarven Forge where you killed the Flames into the Dwarven Obituary Hall saves you some running. Go north. If you stored items near the stairs you can take them to the Guilds now also. Then go down the souther stairs to the Spiders into Atlas' room. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Search and press the small button on the southern wall between two Dragon Claw walls. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- When pressing the button, Chani says "Those baby worms... if we could drown one of them we would obtain the water of death.". --- --- --- X --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The wall vanishes and gives access to a secret room, where you face 12 Worms. Think of Chani's words and do not kill them all. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Lure some of them to the Phasing Shower and make them enter the square with the 3 Fountains (Brandish, e. g.). You will also summon another spider behind you, when you enter the square where you can close Pit D. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The Phasing Shower II

I handle this as follows:
1. Kill 8 worms.
2. Lure the remaining ones to the Phasing Shower.
3. I stand under the door there and tear them down cautiously (if the door is closed, you can try to chase them from the North also).
4. Get more cautious, when only one remains.
5. Sooner or later they will enter the square with the 3 Fountains.
6. There they will teleport away and you get the message "Spell unlocked".
7. You can kill now the remaining ones.
8. In the fountains you will find 2 ZO Liqueurs and the Scroll "Worm Invocation – ZO GOR RA".

Notes:
1. Since you anyway will summon another spider on your way to the Phasing Shower, it might be sufficient to keep only 2 worms alive.
2. Be prepared to be attacked from spiders behind – especially if you did not reduce them before.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ZO GOR RA – The Worm Invocation Spell

This spell summons a worm on your square. When you move, it attacks you. Might be interesting, if you urgently need food... Or in some special situations. We'll see.
When you cast this spell at the three fountains of the Phasing Shower and step out, you get the food without even fighting them.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X If you succeed, you get the message "Spell unlocked". X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Step into the niche with the 3 Fountains and touch them to get 2 ZO Liqueurs and the Scroll "Worm Invocation – ZO GOR RA". X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the secret room. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The Worms here drop a Corbum, a Scimitar, Bones – and lots of food. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X On the ground you find an Open Helm, more Bones, the Scroll "DES BRO KU – Heroism Brewage"... and lots of VEN Eggs. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Encountered a Spider which dropped a Mace. --- --- X --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the corners you see 2 open Cobwebs. If you step there, a Red Scorpion appears behind you for both. These are the Mothers of the Egg Chamber. Kill them to get 1 competition point. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the western corner, you find an Emerald under a VEN Egg. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In both corners, you can find additional VEN Eggs in the walls (9 totally). X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go back to the previous room. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Eventually return to the guilds to unload, then return here. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- S-Iaido: somehow lost his SAR Shield... --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Climb down the pit to Moria. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- From now on Gigglers, Leprechauns and Vexirks might appear in the Guilds. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X You find a Rope and Bones. Stepping forward you see a statue and a pit behind it. We put it on our list. Turn around and teleport back into Atlas' room – of course the teleporter brings you onto the Spider-generating grate... X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go up the southern stairs and take the Boulder there. X X X X X X X X

Aim 46 G – The Long and Narrow Room







--- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- --- Found a Mace in the Shower from a dead Spider. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the room with many exits, where a stairs went down. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go down the stairs. A Spider appears. Kill it and step forward. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- You are in a small 1-square-room now with stairs up in the East (where you came from) and in the West. The western stairs leads to a large room with some (strong!) Spiders. If you step onto one of the stairs, a (not so strong) Spider appears here.

To your left is an alcove. You might deposit items there (e. g. The Stone Club) until you need them.

Last not least... this is a good place for resting! Especially when exploring the western room.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- X X --- X X X X X Dropped the Stone Club into the alcove. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Now go up the other side. This leads to the same room as the passage in the South. Go back via the two stairs (another Spider in between...). X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go to the passage in the South and to the West there. Be cautious – Spiders... X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- --- Encountered a Giggler who dropped an Emerald Key. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The riddle statue in the southern wall want a shining necklace and gives you a Mail Aceton for it. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Stepping into the northern path summons a Spider in the East where you found the Kath Vinegar. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The next passage south leads to a stairs going down. We put it on our list and explore it later.

Notes: you can get a Boulder there easily if you need one... Seems to be also be a safe place for resting.		 X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X There are Dragon Claws here. Pressed as usual. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Now step into the next Cobweb in the West. It opens in a long and narrow room. Spiders are here and Gigglers and Leprechauns can also be here. In the left door frame are Dragon Claws. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- Encountered a Spider which dropped a Mace. --- --- --- --- X --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Encountered a Spider which dropped Bones... X --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Encountered a Giggler who dropped a Scroll "Map of the Sudden Death – Password Painful". --- --- --- --- --- X --- ---
--- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- Found a Mace in the Cobweb from a dead Vexirk (found the Spider with the Mace later). --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Step into the room. Do not step onto this first square too often. It generates (strong) Spiders in the Revenge Room south. Instead you might use the stairs down/up in the North, where Spiders are generated on the level below – but these are weak. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Found a Monk Staff on this square from a dead Vexirk. X --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Continue north – we are still in "labyrinth right mode"... X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X To your right you see the stairs down that you explored already. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Dragon Claws to your right. Touched. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the North, you see more Dragon Claws and a stairs up. The square in front of the Dragon Claws and stairs is an invisible pit that opens/closes after 2-3 seconds. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Position south of it, enter, touch the Dragon Claws, sidestep left to go up the stairs. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X You see a stairs down in front of you and a stairs up to your right. In the southern niche is an invisible pit that opens/closes after about 2 seconds. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Note
This looks like the best and fastest connection between Guilds and Spiders level.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Do not step onto the pit square, if you do not want to go down. A spider might spawn behind you, and if you can't kill it fast, you will fall down. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Note
You can explore this in detail as follows (save before...): go up the stairs, return immediately and kill the spider. Now you should have some time before the next spider appears. If you rush into the niche and step back you can watch the pit open/close.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Since this is the best position for going home from the Spiders level and we are carrying lots of VEN Eggs again, we'll do it soon. But since we will continue our journey the other stairs down when coming back, we first finish the central room. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go downstairs back to the previous room (don't forget the pit there) and go south (on the western side). X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- Encountered a Spider which dropped a Mace. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

X X X X X X X X X X X X X You pass another Dragon Claws. Touched it. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- To your right is another Cobweb. We ignore it and hope we get there later from the other side. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Next thing you see is the statue of the Lost Wanderer. Give him an Arrow to receive a Compass. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Finally you reach the inscription "Revenge Room". X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the passage to the Revenge Room you find an empty Bag. You see another Bag in the South... X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The next square to the South is an invisible pit. If you are grey-loaded, you are fast enough to step over it – otherwise you will fall down. In case you fall down: there is an easy way to return to the Spiders level, which will be described later.

X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the North. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X A passage to the East leads to a Cobweb. We explore it soon, but now we continue north until another Dragon Claws. We touch it and go to the western side of the room and from there to the stairs up in the North. X X X X X X X X

X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the remembered place. X X X X X X X X

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- You can touch the statue now, but it doesn't make much sense, since Spiders will disturb you, so that you will most probably not reach the closing door in time.

Aim 46 I – The Master Thief




















Summary
There are two small jobs to be done here, that lead us to other levels, but must be started here. We start with the Master Thief and in the next section do the Cruel Pit.







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the Blue Path Room. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go up the stairs in the South. You hear a voice: "Hey you... let me free". Behind a grate door you see the Master Thief (a Giggler). Should we trust him? X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Exploring the area you see a door with a lock and the inscription "Treasury" (which should read better "Treachery" ...) and a pit.
The door can be opened with a SAR Key.		 X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- If you look through the door using Clairvoyance, you see a Bag and a Gold Key. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X Lockpick the door 10 or more times.

Note: I think you can omit the lockpicking – most probably it is just for atmosphere. I lockpicked 10 times for group S-M1 only – for other groups I omitted it.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X Return to the Giggler. Now he says "You have good thieving skills but my techniques are even better. I could pick this lock for only a shiny tiny golden coin. Just free me and give me your tools.". Hmmm... --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X You have to decide now, whether to trust him or not. If you don't trust him, you have to open the Treasure Room with a SAR Key (which you don't have yet – except if Leyla is in your group). X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- A Note on the Treasure Room

You will get much better treasures, if you don't trust him (among others 2 SAR Keys...). If you find a way to enter the Treasure Room before him (I didn't!), you can trust him.

Behind the door is a square, that decides what you will find here. If you enter this square first, you find rather good treasures. If the Master Thief enters it first, you find just Bones and useless Scrolls.

Trying getting both the good and the bad treasures does also not work. If you open the door with a SAR Key and later let it be opened by the Master Thief, you only get the good tresures. If you let the door be opened by the Master Thief first and later spend a SAR Key you only get the bad treasures.

Nevertheless I describe both ways, since even the bad one is quite funny.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X I don't trust him and continue with the next section. If you want to trust him, skip the next section and continue with Aim 46 I b.

Note: this guide assumes, that you did not trust him!		 X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 46 I a – Not Trusting the Master Thief







--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- If you don't trust the Master Thief, there is no need to keep him alive... --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Bash/Fireball the Giggler's door and kill him. Do not let him out! He has an invisible Giggler in his backpack. Kill him also. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X You find the following items: Night Shadow, Gaefusilfr, Stormring, Shuriken, Magic Purse, and 3 Scrolls "The master thief was here". X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Night Shadow

You can equip the Night Shadow as an Armour or as a Cape. If you equip two Night Shadows to the same Champion, he gets the Dexterity bonus twice.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X I take the Bones in the entrance also. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X We put the Treasure Room on our list and go down the stairs. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 46 I b – Trusting the Master Thief




















Summary
This section is here for reasons of completeness only. I'd strongly recommend to do "Aim 46 I a" instead.




















Place the Lockpicks and a Gor Coin on the ground in front of the lock.







--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Bash/Fireball the Giggler's door to free him and lure him to the Lockpicks. If you do nothing, it might take rather long until he opens the door to the Treasury Room and goes through. Do NOT follow him! --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Opening the Treasury Door

To make the Master Thief's decisions faster, I do the following sequence:
1. Equip the Branch of Fear and Courage. This will be needed soon anyway.
2. Stand next to the "Treasury" wall.
3. When the Giggler is in front of the door, Brandish him.
4. As soon as he steps onto the Lockpicks square, follow him to block his way back.
5. He takes the Lockpicks and the coin and soon and very soon opens the door. You are teleported away and cannot move for some time, while the Giggler goes through the door.
6. Even if you are fast enough to follow him (which is hard enough, but possible!) - do NOT go through the door!!!
7. If you are lucky and fast, you can see through the door, that the Bag and Gold Key vanish shortly after the Giggler enters their square.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Ok, that was easy, wasn't it? But now the real problems start. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Go down the stairs IMMEDIATELY. Look to the ceiling to find the pit above. Position east of it and wait until the Giggler falls through. Use the Branch of Fear and Courage or similar items to chase him into one of the western corners. Kill him. He has an invisible Giggler in his backpack that is set free now and attacks you. That's why you had to chase him into a corner... Kill the invisible Giggler also. If you attacked by Spiders, kill them first. And pray to the God of Reload, that no other Gigglers arrive... --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Apart from your Lockpicks and the Gor Coin you find the following items: Night Shadow, Gaefusilfr, Stormring, Shuriken, Magic Purse, and 3 Scrolls "The master thief was here".

Note: there is no Bag and no Gold Key... Looks like they were not stolen, but teleported away, when the Giggler stepped onto their square. Maybe we should just have used a SAR Key. Unfortunately, we don't have one yet... We put this on the list.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Why to kill the Giggler before entering the Treasury Room

The pressure plate under the door closes it after a short while.

You might not be able to prevent the Giggler from falling through the pit. If this happens you have to go down immediately since the Giggler is able to go through the southern Cobweb into unexplored terrain (and remember: he has your lockpicks...). Thus you don't have time to loot the Treasury room.

You would have two options now:

1. Leaving through the door
If you leave through the door, the pressure plate will close it, and you can't get back their without a SAR Key.

2. Climbing down the pit
If you unluckily land on the Giggler, he will die and you will set free the invisible one. Any idea how to follow an invisible Giggler here...?		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Go up the stairs again. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- In the Master Thief's cell you find Bones. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Enter the Treasury room. The door closes behind you. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The next pressure plate opens it again. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- In this room you find lots of Bones, a Rock, some more Scrolls "The master thief was here" and one Scroll "And here too". --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Stepping onto the pressure plate near the pit closes the pit after a short while. Leaving the pressure plate opens the pit after a short while (but enough to step over). --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Crossing the pit you could reach the Haven of Meditation from here and there teleport to the Hermit in the Sewers. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Climb down the pit or go over it and to the stairs. Thus you keep the Treasure room open for later. I use the stairs. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

























































Aim 46 J – The Cruel Pit




















Summary

Warning: do not go down here now if you want to finish the game without dying or if you are doing a Solo Game. You only get a reward, if at least one of Champion dies. And it is not a reward that you really need.

I omit this now except for group M4-1, but put it on my list for later!







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Continue right. You see an inscription "The Cruel Pit" and a pit with a stairs down behind. Most groups will explore this later. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Warning

Do not go down here if you want to finish the game without dying or if you are doing a Solo Game.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- --- Jump down the pit. You get the message "I am still hungry". From where you land you can go up or down. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- --- The downgoing stairs after another stairs leads to a VI Altar. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- If you go up, you stand in front of the pit and have no other option than to jump in again. And again. And again... Until a Champion dies. The Champion needs not to die by falling here. Running against a wall works also! --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- --- If you have with you the Bones of a dead Champion, you can drop them to the ground also! --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The Cruel Pit

You can also just drop Bones to the ground that you can find in the Future Machine. They work also!		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- --- When the first Champion dies (or more exactly: when the Bones of one dead Champion drop onto the ground), you get the message "Yessssss.... I am satisfied now... Furthermore a wall vanishes. In an alcove there you find Emerald Key, Gold, Key Iron Key and a Stormring. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Gather the Bones of the dead Champion and go down to the VI Altar to revive him. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Go back and pickup his belongings. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- --- Use the teleporter. It returns you up in front of the Cruel Pit. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

X X X X X X X X X X X X X On the last square is an empty Bag. Step forward, take it, step back immediately. You see a pit opening and closing shortly after. We put it on our list. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go back to the last junction and there to the South. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Encountered a Spider which dropped a Mace. X --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Soon you reach a junction, where you can see Bags in the South. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Alex mumbles something about hideouts and opens a secret door. Looks like only Alex can open this wall to your left. --- X --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Step in. In a niche you find Boots of Speed. When you take them, Alex says "Strange... I was sure there were three pairs... some thieves must have discovered this stash." --- X --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go to the East. This path ends at a Cobweb to the Long Narrow room. Go through. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Found an Emerald Key on the ground from a dead Giggler (or Vexirk). --- --- --- --- X --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Remember the path from the FUL Statue until here for later. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- X X --- X X X X X Go down the eastern stairs and take the Stone Club that you stored in the alcove there. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the last junction and take the passage to the South. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X You enter a room with 4 Bags on a square. This looks like a trap... and it is one... X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go to the South first – but without stepping onto the square with the Bags. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the South there are three more riddle statues (Trollkin, Orckin and Elfkin). Give them a Stone Club, Club and Skebow to receive Icewinds, a Magic Purse and Elven Boots. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Note:
I do this first to reduce load. Furthermore, Single Champion groups must also make place in the inventory for Bags (the new items can be stored in Bags making free slots for more Bags).		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- Encountered a Giggler who dropped an Emerald Key. Strange! Are there running around two Gigglers with Emerald Keys. Or is the one we found in Aim 34 F from someone else? Added a second entry for this in the list until this is clarified. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- He also dropped the SAR Shield that he had stolen from me before. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Take the bags (still without entering their square). X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Then enter their square and do what has to be done... X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The Robbery (aka The Bag Trap)

1. Take the bags first without entering the square. They are all empty.
2. Prepare a Fireball.
3. Enter the Bags' square from the South.
4. You get a message "Hands up. This is a robbery." and are surrounded by 4 Leprechauns, who teleport here.
5. Launch the Fireball and step forward immediately.
6. A teleporter is activated on the Bags' square. It can teleport items and your party, but not the Leprechauns. But the Leprechauns might steal something before you are teleported. Therefore it is important to avoid getting teleported and blocking the exit.
6. If you were not fast enough, you have been teleported into the room with the pit to Moria...
7. Otherwise you are blocking the exit now, so that the Leprechauns can't escape.
8. Wait until the teleporter has vanished again – if you accidently kill a Leprechaun on the teleporter's square while it is active, stolen items will be teleported away!
9. Kill the Leprechauns. They drop nothing except possibly stolen stuff.		 X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Note: the teleporter can be activated later without another robbery. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Return all the way to the first junction where you saw the grate squares and go south there. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Or: return to the Guilds (via the Long and Narrow Room), unload, return to the Blue Path Room, go through the southern CobWeb to the grate squares and go south there. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X When standing on the southern grate, I touch the Dragon Claws left and right. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X To your right you find a Kath Vinegar and a Blast Spore. X X X X X X X X

X X X X X X X X X X X X X Any Champion can use a dagger here to get a Sapphire. The dagger vanishes afterwards. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X When you reach the next Cobweb door, switch on labyrinth mode and go always to the right. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The next door to your right can be opened with an Emerald Key. It leads to the stairs from the Temple to the Council. You don't need to open it. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Dragon Claws. Touched. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X After passing some riddle-less statues you come to another Cobweb door. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X It leads to a small room with a stairs up (the stairs is to be explored later). X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The Gnomekin here wants a SAR Wine for a ZO Liqueur. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Furthermore you find a Helm on the ground and Dragon Claws (touched). X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Now go up the stairs. You reach the northern part of a puzzle area in the Crypt. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go north first and clean the area. X X X X X X X X
--- X X --- X --- X --- X X --- X --- Some groups encountered a Spectre here. X --- --- --- --- --- --- X
--- --- --- --- --- X X --- X X X X X Just north of the stairs is an Emerald Key door (we put it on the list) and an alcove where you can reduce your load. You'll need grey load soon... --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Now go South until you see a pressure plate. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In an alcove in the South (which you can't see from here) are lying 16 Spitter Berries, 3 VEN Eggs and 3 Blast Spores. If you stand in front of the pressure plate and turn right, you see another pressure plate. Turning left, you see two pits The first one regularly closes for a very short time. What you don't see yet is a third pit and a green button at the southern wall.

Try to get the stuff in the alcove – if you are facing problems take a look at the violet section below.		 X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The Spiteful Spittles Puzzles (Part 1)

Important Note: you need grey load!
0. State at the beginning: the first pit is almost always open and closes regularly for a short time. The second pit is open.
1. Step onto the first pressure plate. A Spitter Berry is fired at you and vanishes and the second pit is closed.
2. Looking around you see another pressure plate, a third pit and a green button as mentioned above.
3. Turn south to watch how the pits work.
4. Step back onto the second pressure plate (another Spitter Berry...). The second pit opens. The first one is now closed rather long and opens only shortly. This makes it possible to reach the green button.
5. When the first pit has just closed, run forward and press the green button once. Step back onto the pressure plate immediately. More Spitter Berries are fired at you. The third pit is closed now. The others are in the state described in step 0.
6. Step onto the second (northern) pressure plate. Wait for the Spitter Berry.
7. Heal, if necessary.
8. Wait until the first pit has just opened and closed. Step forward.
9. Wait for the Spitter Berry to hit you (Spitter Berries also seem to influence the pits)!!! Then rush forward 5 steps immediately. Lots of Spitter Berries are fired at you – but finally you stand at the alcove
10. Collect the remaining stuff in the Alcove and some Spitter Berries from the ground. While collecting Spitter Berries on the ground, more Spitter Berries might be fired at you filling up the Alcove again...
11. We worry about the missing Spitter Berries later.

I spent several hours on this one...		 X X X X X X X X

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The Spiteful Spittles Puzzles (Part 2)

The two Alcoves here belong to the same square as the one from which Spitter Berries were fired at you shortly ago. And there is another one on the western side also, that can't be accessed.

If you didn't find a total of 16 Spitter Berries, the remaining ones are on the western side of the wall, which cannot be accessed! I doubt that there is a way to get them.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go down the stairs and continue yur way in labyrnith mode (right) until you reach another Dragon Claws wall. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X I touch the Dragon Claws. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X A corridor to the East starts here... X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 46 L – The Spider Queen Corridor







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go 4 steps east. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X You stand now in front of a crossing with a grate. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The Spider Queen Corridor

If you step onto this grate from either direction, a Spider will appear at the eastern end of the corridor.

If you step onto the grate and have been at the eastern end before about 6-7 Spiders will appear instead. Best retreat behind the two illusionary walls in the West and fight them from there.

Retreat through the Gnomekin's room is also possible. But be cautious. If you wait for the Cobweb to open, a Spider might be teleported from the square east of you onto the door square! I nevertheless prefer this way, because you could escape up the stairs and then down the pit in the North into the Blue Path Room.

Warning: if you are too slow, they might follow you through the walls! In this case, you can retreat by going up the stairs.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Step onto the grate. A Spider appears in front of you. Fight it. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Turn left and step forward. You find a Blast Spore and a Kath Vinegar. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The statue wants a Gaefusilfr for a Scroll "Scroll of Teleport – cast rune of air to activate it". For the Scroll you get a Competition Point. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the grate (next Spider...), then go South. You get the message "It looks like there are spider eggs in this nest...". You find an Amber Worm and 5 VEN Eggs in the wall. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the grate (next Spider...), then go East. You find a Shuriken, Bones and a Bag with a Hosen, a Gold Key and a Cape. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the eastern wall you find a unique rope – the Scorching Silk Whip – which gives you 1 competition point. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X On the left and right walls are Dragon Claws. I touch them. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X When going back lots of Spiders spawn behind you. See last violet text, if you need help. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Continue with labyrinth mode right (one more Dragon Claws...; touched them) until you come to a stairs down. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 46 M – The Revenge Room







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go down the stairs. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X A small button on the northern wall opens a passage to the South (it cannot be closed again). It leads to the Officers Canteen with lots of food. Since the wall cannot be opened from the other side, I open it now, but don't go in yet (put it on the list). X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Note: The Canteen

A small button on the northern wall opens a passage to the South (it cannot be closed again). It leads to the Officers Canteen with lots of food (and water). There are also teleporters to Temple, Mines and Emerald Level near. The way to the teleporter to the Mines must be opened from the other side.

Warning: touching the Fountain generates Vexirks behind the door in the North!		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go up the other stairs. It leads to the Revenge Room. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Thrown items in this room hit yourself. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X There are 3 Dragons Claws in this room. Touched them. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Stepping onto the grate spawns a Spider when you leave it. I step onto it. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X North of the grate is an empty bag – and north of the bag the invisible pit that, as you know already, leads to the long and narrow room. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- South of a pit a stairs goes down – explore it later. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Next to the stairs is a door with a SAR lock we cannot open yet. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Leave the room through the passage to the East. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The grate at the junction generates a Spider in front of you. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X On the ground you find a Mithral Mail and two KATH Vinegars. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Touching the wall here spawns a spider in front of it as soon as you step back – as expected... I touch it nevertheless... X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The other passage is the worst one of the "2 squares dead end traps". There is an invisible pit here, that opens and closes rather fast. And Gando does NOT warn about it. If you step forward two steps, you are thrown back and fall into the pit (even grey-loaded you are too slow to step back). If you step forward and backward you can watch the pit open and close – and generate another Spider... --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the Revenge Room and climb down the invisible pit at the northern exit. We leave the labyrinth mode now. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 46 N – A short Visit in the Jail of the Council







X X X X X X X X X X X X X You fall into a small cell and hear somebody laughing. Furthermore Iaido informs you: "There is a secret panel on the north wall... perhaps we can shove it with our combined strengths". If you turn around he informs you also that the door to your cell can be fireballed. A rather secure prison... X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- On the ground you see special Bones (of the prisoner) and 2 Scrolls. I leave anything there. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X You can leave the cell backwards to the North and this is what I do. While in the wall you can turn around and look whether the coast is clear. Yes, no guards... You could even return to the cell. Once you leave the wall you can't go back. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Search for an illusionary wall in the North (just one step east) and go 2 steps forward. Iaido doesn't inform about it... X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X You see a stairs going down to the left and one going up in to your right. There is also a Boulder lying around in an alcove. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 46 O – Finishing the Blue Path







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go up the stairs, turn left and enter the long and narrow room. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go south and take the next passage left. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go through the Cobweb into a small room. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the Northeast you find a Torso Plate and a Gaefusilfr in the wall. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go through the southern Cobweb. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In a niche to your right you see Dragon Claws. I touch them. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Furthermore there is a Bag in an alcove – and Gando warns about unstable floor... The Bag contains Ashes only. If you take it, a pit opens below you and you fall down into another cell of the prison. I take the bag... and fall down... X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Taking the Bag with Ashes

The cell door, where you come down is open initially. So when taking the Bag, step backwards two times immediately. Thus you get out before the door closes!

If you are too slow, you can press the blue button in the cell. This causes an alarm and some Vexirks appear. After some time, the door opens and they attack you. Afterwards the door stays open and you can escape.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X After escaping from the cell, I go 4 steps to the West to the other cell, fireball the door, step in and use the way back as described in the previous chapter. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Then I return to where I took the Bag (the pit there is open now) and continue south. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X To your right is another riddle statue – the Protector of Warriors – who gives you a unique Small Shield for a Wooden Shield. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Soon you will end at a closed Ra door with a teleporter behind it and a pit to your left. The pit leads to Levels 7 and 9 (you can interact in Level 7 but fall through in Level 8). X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 46 P – Finishing the Blue Path to the "SPIDERS Letters Area"







--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The Ra Door to the SPIDERS Letters Area

The Ra door can be opened by touching the FUL Statue (see Aim 46 H). You then have about 40 seconds to go through the door before it closes (you here a load rumble then)! If you are too slow because of Spiders/Cobwebs you can try it again.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go back to the long and narrow room, there through the Cobweb door to the West then to the North to the FUL Statue. Kill all Spiders on your way. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Return to the Guilds to unload, then return here. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Touch the FUL Statue and go the same way back to the Ra door. You can get the job done with yellow load and and a few seconds remaining. If you are too slow, just try again.

Note: to speed up things you can fireball the Cobwebs...		 X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go through the door into the teleporter. You are teleported into the "E" of "SPIDERS". X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 46 Q – The Puzzle in the "SPIDERS Letters Area"







X X X X X X X X X X X X X You start in the letter "E". Turn around and use the northern teleporter to "D". X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Turn left and use the next teleporter. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X You find a Monk Staff and a Ra Key. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The teleporter brings you back to the entrance. Do NOT step north there. Otherwise you have to go to the FUL Statue and reopen the door here. You are not yet finished here. Step south into the teleporter to "E" again.

Since there might be Spiders just in front of the entrance, it might be a good idea, to step into the teleporter to the entrance and immediately backwards again to teleport away as fast as possible.		 X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X This time use the southern teleporter leading to "P". X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X There use the second teleporter to "R". X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Use the Ra Key to open the door and press the blue button. You hear a door moving. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The teleporter brings you back to the entrance. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Step south into the teleporter to "E". X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Use the northern teleporter to "D". X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Turn right and use the southern teleporter to "I". In the North you see an empty door frame. This is the door we opened with the blue button before. Step into the teleporter behind it. It brings you to the (second) "S". X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X You find a Bag here, and inside: 2 Steaks, an empty waterskin, a Sapphire, a Shining, a Compass and a SAR Key. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The teleporter brings you back to the entrance. And this time you can go north... X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- So, we have a SAR Key now to open the door in the Revenge Room. But I do not use it yet! --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The SAR Door

If you go through the door, it closes behind you. You have to use the teleporter which teleports you into an area where you can get 4 items (2 of them look like must-haves, but not urgent must-haves...). As soon as you take one of them you get teleported back into the Revenge Room. So you have to spend one SAR Key for each item, that you want.

So I keep this on my famous list, until I have at least two keys.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go back to the long and narrow room. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 46 R – Revisiting The Treasury Room of the Master Thief







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Take the northern stairs to the Blue Path Room and there the stairs up to the Treasury Room where you met the Master Thief. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Use the SAR Key to open the door to the Treasury Room. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Behind the door a Gold Key and a Bag containing Hosen, Elven Mail and Helm are lying on the floor. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In an alcove you find Bones and an Emerald Key. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In another alcove you find Bones and a Ruby. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In another alcove you find Bones. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In another alcove you find Bones, a Rock and an Emerald. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In another alcove you find Bones and 2 SAR Keys X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Step onto the pressure plate next to the pit. Ater a short while the pit closes. Step over the pit and go down the stairs.

Note: if you leave through the door, it closes behind you. You can't open it again – not even with another SAR Key.		 X X X X X X X X

Interlude – The Gaze of Fate




















Now that we have widely cleaned the areas until the Spiders level, it's time for the next big job. We are going to get a special gem called the "Gaze of Fate". This will enable us to hire our fifth party member.

In contradiction to my normal level-by-level approach, I'll do this in a quick and dirty run.

You can get the Gaze of Fate in a room in the 7th level (OK, not really – but this will be stuff for the next interlude...). This room must be accessed via a stairs from the 8th level.

A good path seems to be going down the stairs in the Revenge Room and then climbing down a pit in the Torture Chamber in the South.

A much faster path is using the Elevator to the Mines and there unlock the teleporter to the Officers Canteen with an Iron Key (we have zillions of Iron Keys in the meantime). From there you can reach the Torture Chamber easily.
































































Aim 47 – The Gaze of Fate




















Summary
The chapte is roughly divided into threee parts:
1. Finding a way to the Emerald Level
2. Finding a way to the Oracle
3. Finding the Gaze of Fate
































































Aim 47 A – The Way to the Emerald Level




















Summary
We take the route with the Elevator to the Mines and from there teleport to the Officers' Canteen as mentioned in the interlude above.







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Take with you an Iron Key. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Take with you an Emerald Key. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Use the Elevator to the Mines. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go to the East to the teleporter to the Officers' Canteen. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Use an Iron Key to open the door. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go through and step into the teleporter. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- You end up in a small room. Before you is another teleporter, which according to an inscription on a wall will teleport you back to the Mines. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Behind you is a blue button which opens (and closes!) a wall to your right. Press it to open the wall and go through.

Note: the wall cannot be opened from the other side.		 X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- You see an alcove with lots of food. There are three more alcoves with food on the other sides of that wall. In the North there are two stairs leading to the Revenge Room where you also opened a wall some time ago.

Note:
Do not store important items in these alcoves, because they are filled with food automatically and you would have to take or remove all the new food to get your items back...		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Turn left an go south two steps. Yes... into the wall, it's illusionary. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Follow the way until a door to your right. This one leads to the Torture Chamber as an inscription will tell you. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Enter the Torture Chamber. Climb down the first pit that you see. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 47 B – The Emerald Level – The Entrance Room




















Summary
After climbing down we deal with the welcoming committee.







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Search the Scorpion and kill it. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Search a niche in the Northeast. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Stepping onto the square next to the niche opens the wall 3 squares north where you came down, setting free 2 Gigglers and 2 Salamanders. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X I go three steps south and retreat into the passage to the East, where I can welcome them one after the other... X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X If you enter their room you see an armour in an alcove. Stepping onto the square in front of the alcove summons another Scorpion blocking the exit. Kill it. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X In the alcove you find a Flamebain and a Magic Purse. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Step into the niche in the Northeast now. Touch the hole there to open a wall to your left. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 47 C – The Emerald Level – The Way to the Oracle




















Summary
We take a route to the Northeast until we reach the stairs to the Oracle Room.







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Follow the passage until you see a tiny pad on the floor. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Stepping onto that square opens a wall to your right and 4 Salamanders attack you. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Looking into the passage, you see a pit at the end. We will use it on our way back... You can also use it to escape to the Torture Chamber and start another try in case of trouble. See chapter TBD below for a description. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Follow the passage east then north cautiously until a pit. You might encounter Gigglers, Leprechauns, Vexirks and a Scorpion, who all live in a room in the North. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The pit is illusionary, just step over it. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X After the pit get even more cautious! There are two squares (both marked with tiny pads) that open walls setting free for Stone Salamanders each. You really don't need these, when dealing with the other creatures... X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go to the North without looking left or right – this avoids three other traps... X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Linflas dreams of the arts and crafts of his race. The elven blood runs strong in his blood.

He got a temporary bonus of 31 Dexterity.		 --- X --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Finally you reach a large room with a pit to your left. Clean it from the remaining enemies. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Open the door in the East with an Emerald Key. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go through and up the stairs. X X X X X X X X

























































Aim 47 D – The Oracle




















Summary
We finally find the Oracle Room and consult the Oracle.







X X X X X X X X X X X X X You end up in a small room. A Mastervexirk attacks you... X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Kill him. X X X X X X X X
--- X X X --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- Up to 3 Demons, Fire Demons and/or Balrogs were also here! Summoned by the Mastervexirk?!? --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X The Mastervexirk drops the unique Helm of Druafang, a Gaefusilfr, a Magic Purse, an empty Waterskin and 2 Amber Worms.

The Helm of Druafang gives 3 Competition Points.		 X X X X X X X X
X --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- In the bookshelf near the stairs, you find 3 Scrolls about Vecna.
G4: took them.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- In the other bookshelf, you find a Scroll about your party: "The prohecy mentions the following names Leif Iaido Zed Gando".
G4: took them.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- In the South is a locked door with the inscription "To Ministry". It can be opened with a Square Key. As in most cases we do not open doors that need a key and hope we can get to the other side elsewhere. We put it on our list. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Stepping into the niche with the statue you get the message "The Oracle". X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Touching the Oracle it gives you some (useful?!?) hint. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Turning left you see an eye and the inscription "A fate is awaiting for you in a distant place...". X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Rest, if necessary. X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Daroou feels vigorified. A primal rage fills his dreams.

He got a temporary bonus of 25 Strength.		 X --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Save the game!!! And do not overwrite this save until you have the Gaze of Fate. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Touch the eye – according to the wiki, this works only once – I did not verify this. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X You get one of the following seven messages:
1. Reach the tribute to the orckin upon the sixth gong to find it out.
2. Reach the center of the crypt upon the seventh gong to find it out.
3. Reach the first step to the treasure of the dwarves upon the eighth gong to find it out.
4. Reach the aquantana fountain in the sewers upon the nineth gong to find it out.
5. Reach the purging cell of the rusted temple upon the tenth gong to find it out.
6. Reach the fountain of wisdom upon the eleventh gong to find it out.
7. Reach the south side of the pit of ephesus upon the twelth gong to find it out.		 X X X X X X X X
--- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Got message 1 – tribute to the orckin. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- X X --- --- X --- --- Got message 2 – center of the crypt. --- X --- --- X --- X ---
X --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X --- Got message 3 – first step to the treasure of the dwarves. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- Got message 4 – aquantana fountain in the sewers. --- --- --- X --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- --- --- X Got message 5 – purging cell of the rusted temple. X --- X --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- X --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Got message 6 – fountain of wisdom. --- --- --- --- --- X --- ---
--- X --- X --- --- --- --- X --- --- --- --- Got message 7 – south side of the pit of ephesus. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- You have to go now to the exact location given by the Oracle. And you must be there before the last gong! --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- The Locations mentioned by the Oracle

Coordinates in form {level,x,y}
{6,8,18}
{5,15,14}
{4,24,29}
{3,23,15}
{2,10,6}
{1,10,9}
{0,18,29}

Always after about 80-85 seconds you hear a gong. This means at least 480 seconds or 8 minutes for the first location and 960 seconds or 16 minutes for the last one. Now that we cleaned up the first 6 levels, this should be easily sufficient.		 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

























































Aim 47 E – The Way Back




















Summary
Now we have to go to the location where the Oracle directed us. The first part – which is common for all locations – is described in this chapter.







X X X X X X X X X X X X X Count the gongs!!! X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go down the stairs. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Go back through the room and the southern passage over the fake pit. X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X At the next junction take the passage to the pit in the south (where your first 4 Salamanders came out, see section 47 C). X X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X X X X X X X Jump down the pit. X X X X X X X X

One of the inscriptions here gives also a hint: "If only I knew some magic". --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

This is how I do it:
1. Step forward.
2. Turn around (north).
3. Prepare Fireball (EE seems to be sufficient most of the time).
4. Step right – cast Fireball – if door bashed step forward. Otherwise step right and try again.		 X X X X X X X X

Aim 47 G – The Gaze of Fate / The Fifth Champion




















Summary
The Gaze of Fate enables you to hire a fifth Champion for your party.




















The Gaze of Fate

When a Champion uses the Gaze of Fate it is "hidden" and makes free his slot, so that you can hire an additional one. If another Champion uses the Gaze of Fate it is exchanged with the hidden one.

Warning: the Gaze of Fate drops to the ground when used – sometimes behind you. Don't forget to pick it up again.

A hidden Champion does not suffer from heavy load or poison. He also doesn't need food and water. Thus you can use him as a mule...
