Tips and Misc
- To open the big stone wall to get to the boss, turn both wheels on the double stairwell, head back down and swim west. There will be an opening (previously gated) on the right (north) side that reveals a new wheel to turn to open the stone wall.
- This quest is worth great even at level 4. Its worth getting a group together and repeating on elite. 10 times still turns in 1000 xp with everything killed and broken. Not bad for 5 minutes

- Onslaught bonus: 12 monsters killed
- Mischief bonus: 17 breakables smashed
- Vandal bonus: 22 breakables smashed
- Ransack bonus: 27 breakables smashed
