01Reading the map

Dead side runs north, live side runs south — but they overlap in the middle. Filled markers are Live, hollow rings are Dead. The band where they interleave is real, not a drawing error, and it is why people get lost here. The Elder Room and the bridge are the two places you can cross between them.

/loc returns Y, X, Z. +Y is north (up), +X is west (left).
Rising Y takes you deeper into dead side. Falling Y takes you into live side and the king.
A froglok's clan name is its level. Guk > Bok/Jin > Dar/Kor > Zol/Yun > Wan/Urd > Vis/Tal > Shin/Tsu, from 45–49 down to 24–31.
Dots are surveyed /loc. Passages are schematic.

02The map

Four named are not plotted because they have no coordinates. The Ghoul Lord is marked by his two Guk guards, the Arch Magi by his jin-wizard placeholder. Slaythe the Slayer (a dead end just north of the Jail Room) and Raster of Guk (Elder Room, upper alcove by the cauldron) have no recorded position at all.

03Getting through

Step	Directions
Pick an entrance	Four from Upper Guk. Three land together on dead side — two need a short swim, the dry one is nearest Guk's front entrance. The fourth, deepest into Upper Guk, is the live side entrance and is least used.
Through the live maze	Hug the right wall all the way to the Jail Room, then cut straight through. That lands you at the Evil Eye. The wiki calls this maze deadlier than Cazic Thule's.
From the Evil Eye	The live hub. Facing out of the cubby: left → Live Keep. Right → Jail Room or Noble Room. Straight → Elder Room, or on to dead side.
Toward the king	Through the gateway in the Noble Room. Past King Prep, then the King Room. Behind the king is a one-way zone exit to Upper Guk beside the Innothule entrance — the emergency door.
Live → dead	A small tower from the Elder Room leads across. You can pull dead-side mobs from there.
Into dead side proper	Most expeditions gather at the Bedroom to buff and invis, then move out. From the bridge: fall off left for a quick drop to the bottom floor; turn right to go down to live side.

Two safe spots. The tunnel beneath the GIB Room is Safe Hall. And just above "C" on the bottom floor there is a sharp L turn no wanderer visits — people regroup and even bind there.
Live side entrance shortcut: falling off the bridge on the left drops you to the Shin Knight Water Room.
The Store Room is off to the side and up a ladder — easy to walk past.

04Know where you are

What you see	Where you are
Three jail cells in a maze room	The Jail Room — the maze's one reliable landmark
A big room full of people buffing	The Bedroom, the dead-side staging point
A cauldron, mushrooms, a pit and a ladder	The Elder Room. Raster of Guk hides in the upper alcove
Cages with froglok slaves in them	The Executioner Room — he stands on the central platform
A waterfall, and nothing attacking you	The Waterfall Room. The Scepter of Sorrows is on the floor
A three-storey keep	The Live Keep. Roof and bridge Vis/Wan, floor 2 Zol/Yun and the Priest, floor 3 the Crusader
Your Y is climbing past 800	You are heading into dead side and away from every exit

05What will kill you

Threat	Where	What to do
Wrong invisibility	Everywhere	The live/dead split is not absolute. Dead side holds living creatures that see through Invis versus Undead — vampire bats, and a Deadly Black Widow that sits in the Bedroom tunnel specifically to catch you. Carry both spells.the main danger
See-invis named	Both sides	The Evil Eye, the Huge Water Elemental, one basalt gargoyle, and every mob flagged undead. The water elemental attacks regardless of froglok faction and the Zols in his room assist him.
Wizards	Dead side only	They nuke hard with few hit points. Kill order is wizards, shamans, knights, pets. A Kor ghoul wizard near the Arch Magi casts a 600-point nuke.
Shamans	Live side	Pets plus Scourge and Venom of the Snake. Kill them early.
Froglok faction	Live side	Hunting here seriously damages it, and you need it to walk Upper Guk safely. Killing undead frogloks repairs it.
Distance from exits	Dead side	Most of it is very far from any zone line. Bring an evacuator.
The Elder Room pit trap	Live side	Can kill you outright. But if you survive the fall you get a clean solo fight with the elder — nothing else joins.
Lay on Hands	King & Crusader	Both are paladins and both will use it. Plan for a second health bar.

06Caveats

The page contradicts itself on the respawn timer. The infobox says 9:28 (corrected 10 July); the Monsters section still says 28 minutes. This map follows the infobox — and one NPC note updated to "9m 27s" in the same pass corroborates it.
Four named have no coordinates — the Ghoul Lord, the Arch Magi, Slaythe the Slayer and Raster of Guk. The first two are located by guard and placeholder; the last two are not plotted.
Spawn percentages predate the 28 July launch pass, which removed placeholders. Treat them as floors.
Passages are schematic. The maze in particular cannot be drawn honestly from coordinates alone — use the right-wall rule in §03.
