Walkthrough
Head east to find a secret door. After the secret door, keep going east and take the north door to find the Door Seal Key. Head north past the door seal to find two cleric mini bosses and keep going north. There is an infested area that will apply a stacking acid DOT effect on you, go near a cleansing mushroom to remove the stacks. Toxic mushrooms should be killed ASAP. The Zuggmoty fight will use the same mechanics.
Keep going north into Zuggmoty's Chambers and keep going straight to trigger a cutscene before she attacks. At 4 intervals, she will shield herself and summon some trash mobs, kill them to drop her shield. The last wave includes a red named Goristro Barbarian. All waves consist of demons which are immune to electric damage.
End fight
- The end fight on heroic can be a challenge even for characters approaching epic levels.
- Zuggtmoy and her summoned demons use a variety of elemental and poison attacks - fire, acid, lightning, cold and poison resists are all helpful.
- After you approach Zuggtmoy, she has a short speech, allowing you to finish buffing. Shortly after she says "No matter...", it's game on.
- The entire room is covered by a damage-over-time effect dealing acid damage and stacking up to ten times. Occasionally a Toxic Mushroom spawns which probably increases the damage; kill it. Occasionally a purple Cleansing Mushroom spawns; interact with it to remove the stacks.
- Zuggtmoy spawns trash multiple times per fight (at 75/50/25% HP). She usually has a shield up until all trash dies. First wave is dretches, second adds some hezrous, third includes a red named Goristro.
- She has an AoE special attack with high damage and stun. There will be waves on the ground just before this attack. You can avoid the attack by getting behind the blue Sheltering Mushrooms. Spell Absorption items absorb the damage, but not the stun.
- Zuggtmoy's Earthquake spell can take you completely out of the equation. Bring high reflex save or knockdown immunity (e.g., from Unyielding Sentinel stance). Also note, arcane casters can dispel the effect by casting Gust of Wind onto the area.
- Destruction is another of her favorite and devastating attacks.
- After the fight, a barrier of vines to the west must be bashed down to proceed to complete the quest and collect the end chest.
