There are many nasty traps and locked doors in this quest, so a Rogue is a required member of your group (except for exceptional parties). You will also need at least two persons with a strength of 25 for some levers and two persons with at least a wisdom of 20. Without these required stats, you will not be able to complete this quest.

Arcane casters should have Dimension Door to speed things up and possibly Knock. Casters (divine or arcane) should have both elemental resist and protection spells. Melee should have non-elemental weapons for the Iron Golem at the end because any sort of elemental damage will heal him.

Speak to each of the NPCs in the quest to get items from them that will be helpful in completing this quest. Once complete, you gain entry to the final part of the Vault of Night raid quest series from an exit at the end of this quest. Do not recall from this quest on completion for you will not be able to proceed to the following quest.
