Tips and Misc

Useful buffs: acid, fire, sonic.

  • Bring a Rogue (Lock DCs) and someone with 20 Strength for the optionals. The 2 locked wooden doors (for the large square east and west rooms) require Strength of 20 to open, although a fireball (or thrown weapon) is just as effective, without the need to reach 20 Strength (U46.2).
  • You can skip the locked doors and the Circles as these are all optionals, only the 5 Locks are required to open the last barrier. There are 6 locks, the one at the front door doesn't count towards the required 5, but has to be unlocked also. Once the 5 locks are down, the barrier appears to still be in place, but when you approach it, it lowers and Unas attacks.
  • There is an unmarked secret room in the north-west dead-end.
  • If you close the Secret doors to the secret chambers in the northwest and southeast corners while inside the room, a named Prelate (Abiram and Tobias) will appear. Killing each will cause a new chest to appear.
  • The Tomes have no value after collection. They will remain in your inventory even after the quest completes, but can be safely discarded at any time. You can read them from your inventory for a little background story. The 3 tomes are:
