Sylsfear Quest : Laboratory Chest
1-If you
are not a lock picker, or don’t know one, start at part 1
2-if you
are a lock picker or know one, with any skill level, go to
part 2
3-if you or
a friend is a master lock picker, and someone can cast
weaken lock VI for you, go to part 3.
Part 1 : Zalphoos
IMPORTANT : bring at least 900p in CASH.
1- Preferably from Glenden Wood, run to the Zabool Tower Base portal at
21.7N 19.4E
2- simply run to the top, running past a few reedsharks,
some black and red
rats, and one
lich that you will only see on your radar. this is mainly a
circular route,
so no need to explain what to do, just go up.
3- hit the Top of Mt. Zabool Portal at the top.
4-head to 20.8N 18.5E, on top of the plateau, to the Mount Alphus Portal.
5-Outside the portal, you should see a tent not too far,
at 19.3N 17.6E.
6-Zalphoos, the Merchant, sells Zalphoos' Key, for 900p
and he has
pearless healing
kits for 1000p(Only guy who sells that, to my
knowledge, have
a mule tie here if you like). He DOESN’T BUY TRADE
NOTES, that’s
why you need some cash pyreals.
7-Now that you have Zalphoos’ Key, go through the Base of Mt.
Alphus
portal just outside the tent, and through the Mt. Alphus Valley portal near
where you
appear.
Part 2 : Alfreth Dungeon
1-from where the Mt. Alphus Valley portal dropped you, or from Glenden
Wood if you have
a lock picker, run to Alfreth Dungeon at 20.5N 13.2E.
2-At the entrance, stick to the left wall, you will go in
a passage at the end
of the entrance
room(not the one going up).
3-not far inside the passage, there is a passage going
down, go down and
stick to the
left wall, you'll go past a Reedshark nest, and you'll end up in
another room.
4-go right, in the other room, and make the jump down to
your right , look
back to where you jumped from, a passage is just to
the right, take it, at the first turn
in the passage, there is a locked door, use Zalphoos’ key or pick the lock.
5- behind the door, follow the passage up, at the end, do
the 2 jumps down.
6-follow the passage at the bottom of the pit, it goes up.
When you're out of
the passage,
stick to the left wall, you'll go past a surface portal and go in
another passage,
after the small passage, you’ll end up in a room where
you’ll find a
Banderling Captain and a small group of banderlings. Kill the
Captain and take
the Worn Key he drops. Take as many keys as you like,
the more the
better as it is 1 use, and that a bad move at the end of the
quest, after you
use the key, can be quite lethal, the spawn is quite slow,
15 min i think.
When you got enough keys go back to the surface portal
that you runned
past, and go through it.
Part 3 : Sylsfear : Laboratory Key
1-Run to Sylsfear Dungeon at 11.0N 14.7E.
2- inside, take the passage left of the Surface portal,
stick to the right wall
of the passage,
you'll go down twice, don't take any turns, go forward
and go on in
the wavy tunnel until you get to a Dusty Sign and a broken
Lifestone.
3-Buff here! For shadows!
go left and
down, open door, (not locked)
IMPORTANT! : door is locked from other side, so to come back for
last
part you need a
lock picker, recall if you are tied, or
run back once more.
4-go through the rooms and passages, killing the shadows,
until you get to
a gate with a
portal to the south direlands. DON’T TAKE THE PORTAL.
5- go down the right passage, and kill the shadow, the
male tusker, the 2
shadow lt, 2
lich lords, the panumbris and the revenant, the key is on the
revenant, it is
no drop, no give, and the spawn rate in this room is 2
min except for
the shadow and the tusker. You can easily use the
corners to your
advantages, evading war spells while killing them. If you
are a lock
picker, the sarcophagus can spawn good loots, but it
respawns
slowly. Get as many key as you want, i usually fill up a pack.
The Tusker
drops a key, that as nothing to do with the Laboratory supply
Chest quest, so
don’t bother picking it up.
6-after you have enough keys, go back to the entrance of
Sylsfear
Dungeon, either
by running back if you have lock pick, recalling to
entrance if
you’re tied, or recalling somewhere else and doing the run
again.
Part 4 : Sylsfear : Laboratory Supply Chest
1-
Finally, you’re off to the
chest. At the entrance, take passage right of surface portal, run down, kill or
run past the Granite golems, at the door,
use the worn
key found in Alfreth Dungeon, or if you are a master of
lock picking,
try picking it, a Weaken Lock VI will help, even then it’ll still
be one hard
lock.
2-
go straigth ahead in the
passage, on the other side of the door,
until get to a room. Go past
the gate taht is to your left, at the end of the room.
3-
past the gate, stick to the
right wall, until you come to a bench. Just past the bench, there is a turn
left that goes down, time to buff againsn’t lightning and fire, you will be
hitting hard things now : 1 Astyrrian, 1 Scintilla, 1 Static, 1 Inferno, 1
Flamma, 1 Flare, and 2 Shadow Wisps, spawning every 2 min.
4-
After buffing, go down and
you’ll be right next to the chest room.
Now, you have
the choice of doing it in 2 ways :
1-clear the
room, loot once or twice, retreat in passage and wait for
respawn.
2-Evade
everything and take all your pulls in one shot.
How to evade?
1-you must be
ALONE, go down near the room and wait that everything
lose
interests(Being more then 1, monsters will alternate between
targets, and never stops moving).
2- walk slowly
inside room, stick to the left wall and go to the big torch.
Stay as
near as possible to the wall.
3-by staying next
to the wall, run to the strange pillar, to a distance of a
Shift-Jump.
Shift-Jump on the pillar and then down on the chest, time to
pull.
Nothings moving,
and you can take all the pulls you want.
Chest spawns about
everything, but mainly staffs/wands/orbs, gems,
jewelry and
clothes, but it spawned a few nice armors and weapons.
Some things i got
in here are 3 Item V, 2 War V, 1 life VI diff 227,
a 2-6 Cestus,
Endurance VI sleeves, 3 or 4 nice cuirass (Al 180+ base),
Cold prot V, slash

items and a lot of
gems to sell.
