Floor plan
Where the walkable floor ends, computed from the zone’s own geometry in the game files, with the 18 named mobs whose positions are on record plotted on it. This zone has 4 levels and they overlap when flattened, so the control above isolates one at a time.
Height
Order, not a path. Schnozz the Flighty → High Scale Kirn → A mimic → Kejar the Mighty → Polzin Mrid → Slizik the Mighty → Kyrenna → Caradon → Master Yael → The Ghost of Kindle → Initiate Sirlis → Mummy of Glohnor → Ulrik the Devout → Dartain the Lost → Keeper of the Tombs → Commander Yarik → Jaeil the Wretched → Jaeil the Insane. 2,539 units straight-line. Why the line crosses walls →
Lines are floor edges — a wall or a drop. 18 of 18 recorded positions land on drawn floor. What this plan does not mark →
Key to the plan
Where you are
One shaft, and a city at the bottom of it. Both entrances are inside Paineel.
- A waterfall in Paineel
- The fast way in, and the lethal way. It strips levitate as you pass
- A small locked boulder past the newbie area
- The safe way in. Lockpicking, or the Hole Key
- A room with three teleport pads
- Room 16, behind a hidden wall. Left to Paineel, middle to Neriak Third Gate, right to Erudin
- A locked door on the east end of the observation tower
- Room 15. The Hole Key does not open it
- A chest that fights back
- A mimic, in the Secret Vault. It carries the Cell Key
- A ghost that cons indifferent
- The Ghost of Kindle. Every other ghost here aggroes, and it shares a room with several
- The floor of the pit
- Master Yael, with Nortlav the Scalekeeper beside him
Evil races can buy the key from Rallia Hapera in Paineel at 941, 770, for roughly 100 to 120 platinum. Small races, wolf form and some illusions squeeze through the rocks instead, at the risk of drowning; ducking through the corner of the door reportedly works for any race.
Five hazards
Cautions
- The shaft is one-way Levitate does not work here. The waterfall strips it and you fall for lethal damage at the bottom; the outer shaft is the same. You cannot climb back onto the entry ledge without a teleport, the key, or Gravity Flux cast on you as you walk backwards into it.
- Master Yael sees through invisibility And death touches. While he is up, sneak and hide are the only stealth that work.
- Magic crowd control is the wrong plan Revenants and wanderers are extremely magic resistant and the top-level ones cannot be mezzed or charmed at all. Rock golems resist heavily too.
- Elemental healers complete heal at 40% Channelers and harvesters both, and harvesters nuke for 500 or more. Crusaders quick-heal near 30% and need a stun at 20% — and since 28 July that stun cannot be chained.
- The trash backstabs Elemental capturers and deceivers are rogues in a zone where groups watch for casters. They melee up to 118 and backstab up to 365 — about three times as hard from behind as from the front.

Measured in play TIER M
The Hole, run at D1, Awakened. Everything below was observed in the live game rather than read from a source: what these mobs cast, what they hit for, and what they dropped. Upgradeable drops here ran +1 to +2. Killing here moves faction with Minions of Underfoot.
What takes control away
Stuns here arrive as spells, not as melee. Stunning melee attacks were shrugged off and the spells landed anyway, so an immunity to stunning melee attacks does nothing about them.
| Spell | Cast by |
|---|---|
| Lightning Bolt | an elemental visier, an elemental wizard, an elemental crusader |
| Force | Stonesoul the Unmoving, an elemental harvester |
| Holy Might | an elemental channeler |

Ordinary mobs are not itemised here. These ordinary mobs backstab: an elemental capturer, an elemental deceiver. Backstab is a rogue ability, so ordinary mobs here carry class kits. A backstab averages more damage than the same mob’s melee.
What this is and is not. Observations, not rates. A drop seen once is not a drop rate, and nothing here is a probability. Damage is what the mob dealt against the armour it met, so treat the maximum as the shape of the hit rather than a constant. What a log can and cannot tell you →
