Walkthrough

1 – Assassin Master

When you enter the area, an assassin master will approach you. There isn’t any way to talk your way past him. You can sneak past him if you want, but he isn’t that powerful.


2 – Secret Room


3 – Dome Mechanisms

The two mechanisms next to the dome open the two nearby doors.


4 – Locked Door

You can only open the doors by activating the mechanism on the opposite side.


5 – Blade Trap


6 – Blade Trap Mechanism

These mechanisms shut off (or turn on) the nearby blade traps.


7 – Metal Bar Mechanism

These mechanisms lower the metal bars blocking access to the northwestern part of the level.


8 – Gauntlet

If you’re a ranged attacker, then running the gauntlets should be pretty easy. Just shoot the assassins as you go. If you’re a melee attacker, the gauntlets can be difficult. Buy the best armor you can find (go all the way back to Surrey if you need to), and, even if you use two-handed melee, wear a shield when you have to run from one platform to another. Rings of arrow dampening don’t hurt, either.


9 – Door Mechanism

Activating the mechanism will open the nearby locked door (#10).


10 – Locked Door
