Tips and Misc
- This is the shortest of the 4 tombs required to unlock The Bloody Crypt.
- As soon as you enter, the hallway will split in two directions with 2 pressure plates on each side.
- Four bodies standing simultaneously on top of them is required to progress further into the dungeon.
- This part can be solo'd with a total combination of 3 hirelings, pets, or Charmed enemies, plus yourself. However, with the lack of control of pets and charms, hirelings may be preferred, as they may be commanded to remain stationary. Enemy corpses, though temporary, can also trigger the plates.
- Once the pressure plates are activated, the party is separated for the first half of the dungeon, and will be reunited near the central shrine switch rooms.
- From there the whole party will progress north through another skeletal archer gauntlet (however, this one has dart traps shooting down the path).
- After you clear this room, you will enter Bekenkhonsu's Tomb.
- Once Bekenkhonsu is killed, the quest is completed.
- Four bodies standing simultaneously on top of them is required to progress further into the dungeon.
- There are 2 secret rooms on both paths, right after the large square rooms with many Skeleton archers. The entrances are inside the chambers where Wights swarm out. Inside the secret rooms, you may find Lieutenant Keating and Captain Davion.
