The puzzle room of Upper Dorn's Deep is a large dwarven contraption.
Description[]
The floor of this empty room has a circular design that includes three circles of trapped runes (with 12 runes per circle), forming a puzzle.
Plot[]
The party must solve this puzzle as part of the main quest step:
- Opening the way down to the forge (56,000 exp)
Puzzle[]
Initially, 35 of the 36 runes are trapped, and only the "hammer & anvil" rune in the top-right can be safely stepped on.
In total there are three special runes, which can be stepped on in sequence to disarm all runes:
| Special rune | Disarms & unlocks |
|---|---|
| 1. "hammer & anvil" (outer circle ► top-right)  |
|
| 2. "axes" (middle circle ► bottom)  |
|
| 3. "rings" (inner circle ► left)  |
|
Pressing the unlocked lever[1] causes the inner circle of the puzzle room floor to retract and form a staircase to the gear room below.
Enemies[]
None.
Traps[]
- 35 undetectable Lightning Bolt traps on the floor (on every rune except the "hammer & anvil" one), as part of the puzzle. Can only be disarmed by solving the puzzle.
Lootable containers[]
None.
