The Pit: 1st Furnace

You are met at the entrance by a large team of troglodytes.

Your goal in this chamber is to throw the switch at the top center, activating a forcefield around a fire elemental, thus reactivating the first furnace. If it is killed, the fire elemental will respawn, so although there’s not much point in killing it, it won’t hurt anything if you do.


 * Tip: Before you begin the ascent, look up. Amongst those pipes and catwalks up there, you may see some of the troglodytes lying in wait for you.  Kill them now with ranged weapons if you see them.

The ascent: Navigating the Pipes

To the right from the entrance is a door with a signal gem above it. It is locked. Later, when the furnace has been reactivated, a good jumper will have the option to continue higher amongst the pipes and catwalks to throw a switch that will unlock this door. Behind it are a shrine and chest.

Directly across the chamber from the entrance, there’s a valve on the floor by the wall. Turning it activates a blue crystal. This is one of three such switches that you will need to activate, to open the area where the Muckdoom may drop. Go ahead and activate it now.
