[Custom dungeon] Underverse [RTC] [Saumun]

[Chaos-Shaman]

Yeah, it wasn't the latest save. Explained in the private message. Previously I found the

gor rune tile, not sure where I was and I still have that feeling of being lost.

[Saumun]

Yes... For the point you're at, you have all the runes so far.

Spoiler

Did you plant any seeds?. You can get back to the garden pretty quickly by heading almost straight north. There's only one turn (a couple of steps to the right near the rooms with knight), otherwise it's a straight line.

Spoiler

West of the golem area, you need to open a wall near two pits and then you come to a door that requires two Keys of quai. You have to head in the opposite direction from the door to get the other key... and it can be a tricky one to get.

[Saumun]

Apologies CS...
The last post was meant for The Master. Forgot to put his name in the post. Don't want to cause confusion.

Spoiler

ebon dragon, working on some golems, sambini says some have keys, and I'm plum out of keys except for the dungeon key, there is a door that needs two pinkish keys and another portcullis nearby, only found one quai key. So far other than the dragon parts I had already played most of it, happy everything is ok to finish playing.

Lots of fun, this dungeon should be played by all the dungeoneers out there.

Spoiler

i have realised the potential of the seeds in the garden and have used them all up. I just don't know where I am going next. Was that message about heading west of the golem area meant for me.

. All food is now used up so if I don't find some soon I'm going to have to go back a long way which I don't fancy doing. If I have what I need to proceed I just want to know which way to go.

[Saumun]

Yes... It was meant for you.

Spoiler

Just west of the golem area where you got the key of quai. It's just off the end of the main long corridor. There is another golem. Slightly further on there is water and a single piece of cheese. Just south is two pits. To open the wall, you need to drop down. You'll see a grey switch on the wall, but that just reveals the teleport back up. It doesn't get rid of the wall you need. So... walk around the square one full circuit (it only works anticlockwise) and you'll see a wall open in the centre with a lever. This lever gets rid of the wall when you teleport back up.
Beyond this is a door that requires two keys of quai. To get the other, you need to head west (away from the door). There are a couple more pieces of food, but not much.

I'll send you a pm in the next five minutes. Read and get back to me.

i have now gone down the pit and realised that I had already pulled the lever. I obviously didn't realise that it opened a wall up stairs. I have been in the room with 2 alternating yellow hazes but can't work out what they are doing or what I am supposed to do. I have found 2 square keys which has opened up 2 of the doors in the corridor, looks like there is one more to open. I have gone further down the corridor and linked up with the place where you put the runes so I have placed the 4 I had on the board. Don't think this has changed anything as I suspect there is another behind the last door I need another key for. Food is just about keeping me stable, just hovering between red and yellow. I may have to drop a character if it gets any worse, I have 3 at the moment.

[Saumun]

@The Master...

Spoiler

Part of the square key bit is a 50/50 scenario. Could you tell me if you've come across fireball launchers in this section, then i'll know which scenario you got.

Spoiler

If the yellow haze room is the right one i'm thinking of (there is another), then the square key is in the hazes and gets teleported to the other when you get close. To turn them off, go to the most westerly wall just south of this room (but before the vexirks). There are three switches alternating between different parts of the wall. The easiest way for me to describe it is... From the room with the yellow hazes, go w, w, w, s, s, s, w, w, w, n, n, turn to face east and wait. You'll see a switch appear, then disappear after a few seconds. Press this to turn off the yellow hazes and get the key. If you miss it, don't worry. Just wait and it will appear again. The switch appears in two other locations at different times, but this is the easiest route to describe. You only have to hit it once.

Two more points...

Spoiler

You need six runes to get out. One is indeed behind the last door you mentioned, which means you're missing one. Could you tell me which ones you have, and i can point you to the one you don't.

Spoiler

Before you got to the square key/yellow hazes part, you'll have came through a room with a pressure pad in the middle and a fireplace on the wall. Stepping on the pad generates two scorpions, but also switches between two exits from that room. The other exit leads you to a fairly large area that is not necessary to complete the section, but contains one of the most powerful hand weapons in the dungeon and the helm of lyf (very useful)... Also, there is more food here.

I have been in the room with the fire shooters and

Spoiler

pulled the lever on the far wall

Spoiler

I have also pressed that grey disappearing button but obviously didn't realise it turned off the hazes so I will go back there now

[the master]

Spoiler

have now reached the area after I placed the 6 runes on the board. In this area there are ghosts and hazes. I have managed to open up 4 rooms by pressing the 4 grey buttons and have picked up much welcome food and 4 orange diamonds. I'm a bit perplexed as to what the hazes actually achieve and how I get to open the gate. Oh and please don't tell me the ghosts aren't replicating lol

[Saumun]

@The Master...

Spoiler

Even if you're not bothered about getting the weapon/armour, it might be worth opening the other way from the pad/scorpion room just to get the seeds that are close by. If you do, watch the poison shooter. Use the mirror spell. Go to the next door, then turn back. A wall opens near the shooter with two ghosts inside. The seeds are in there.

Spoiler

When you have placed all the runes, i'd recommend going back to the garden with any seeds you may have before exiting to the next section. Don't forget to put the potatoes in a fire for double the food hit.

[Chaos-Shaman]

You found a way back to the tile room master, did that open up or is there a fast way. I have 4 tiles. Going to do a run through again.

Spoiler

Beyond the part with all the Golems there is a room with 2 pits. You need to drop down into the pits. When down there press the grey switch which puts up a teleport to get you up again. Now walk round the room in an anti clockwise direction and you should find a lever in the middle. Pull this lever. This opens up a wall in the room where you need the 2 purple keys to open it. I missed this until Saumun pointed it out to me. There is a rune in this area. It also takes you through to the area where the rune board is. Have you got the rune from the area with the black ghosts in?

You need 6 runes to progress to next area.

[the master]

Cracked it.

Spoiler

im now through the gate. Got the four purple keys which has brought me to an ornate gate with 2 keys. I have found the key for the left lock and am now looking for the keys in the right hand side. I have found 2 pressure pads in the large rooms on the right and killed 3 Knights. I thought one of them might drop a key but none so far. I have noticed that some of the pressure pads in the corridors have stopped clicking when you step on them and others haven't.

[Saumun]

@The Master...

Missed a post further up because i was typing one at the same time. Didn't realise you'd moved on to the next section.

Spoiler

You're through the first part, so you must have found that getting a ghost in a haze opens the walls with pressure pads. Had to have the ghosts respawn in case the player killed them and couldn't continue. They stop respawning after you've hit the pad in the dragon room.

Spoiler

The part you mentioned in your last post has a knight in each of the four corner rooms. You need to get in each one and step on the central pads to make a key appear in the alcove at the centre of the area. This is done by walking in a clockwise rotation in the parts between the rooms, from pad to pad. The ones that have stopped clicking are because you've opened the wall that corresponds to those particular pads.

[the master]

For all those coming up behind me, let just say, you haven't seen anything yet. Just got to 4 rooms all with very intricate puzzles that are going to test the hell out of all players brains. Saumun probably knows which ones I'm talking about.

[Saumun]

If they're the same ones i'm thinking of (and i think they are, as you're around the same area), then yes... they're quite nasty.

[the master]

The ones I'm referring to Saumun are all close to each other and have a lever outside. I think the first one involves an alcove that closes at lightning fast speed. The one across from that involves a room of moving walls.

[Saumun]

Yep... They're the ones.

[the master]

Just completed those 4 rooms. I surprised even myself how quick I did them. All I will say is don't rush and be observant.

[the master]

Just had an email from Saumun and he says he has been locked out from his account. So until he gets back on we are on our own. Please feel free to ask me if your stuck as I think I'm the farthest ahead. Hopefully Saumun will be back with us soon.

[Chaos-Shaman]

I know, got the same e-mail, he was changing his e-mail and then it all started. I didn't get a chance to play yesterday, still am where I was, have for tiles,

4 runes, colour door open and got a rune tile, not sure what to do next. Hopefully Saumun takes pitty and gives an overall map for bearing

a lot of great ideas in the dungeon, very well done.

Your missing 2 runes CS. Have you been through the room with the purple keys, you need 2 purple keys to open the door. Also there is a large area that I missed at the end of that long corridor by the first fire place you come to.

Have you actually entered the Hive Terkio. If you have you are certainly way ahead of me. I think I'm on the 3rd Wing now.

Spoiler

i think they are around the area of the golems. Have you explored the area beyond the 2 pits? Also have you done the RUN bits.

[Chaos-Shaman]

I run into the

Spoiler

and killed them all, is there a secret switch or hidden wall? Area beyond the two pits, where is that. There are hundreds of those pits everywhere. The run, I remember it and thought I did everything.

Problem for me is I went pretty far back and replayed and now I can't tell if I did it or not anymore.

[the master]

CS

Spoiler

the two pits are near the purple doors. Instead of going left to the golems you go right. Have you done the golem area and got rid of all the golems? I think Saumun said that one of the purple keys was at the other end of the long corridor. I can remember a lot of things but getting the exact location of keys without the advantage of a map is difficult. I know I missed one big area off the place by the fireplace. As Saumun says we may not be on the same game scenario but from what your describing it looks as if we might be.
