Zone 1: Fort AshEdit

 
Fort Ash

Upon entering the fort, things appear rather quiet. Proceed until you arrive at a junction. Turn right and dispose of the opposition in the first chamber and claim the loot from the chest. Continue south until you come to an opening in the left-hand wall. Head through the opening and beware of the Swinging Maces triggered by the Tripwire at F. Continue on to a large room with four pillars and a table with a chest and a Dead Treasure Hunter, both at G. Be very careful when approaching the body, as four Dart Traps (D), one on each pillar, will shoot at you from all directions. Head north and jump over another Dart Trap (D) until you reach a large room with a leveled Goblin, two chests, a bedroll at b and a roasted rat. Loot the chests then take the southwestern path which leads to the bridge above. Finally, enter the second zone, Fort Ash Stockade through door C.

Zone 2: Fort Ash StockadeEdit

 
Fort Ash Stockade

This area is fairly straightforward. Upon entering, proceed straight ahead and deal with the one or two goblins in the alcove to the left before looting the two chests around the corner to the right. The path leading east is blocked by three gates, D, E and F, and there are four handles on the walls that you can turn (cyan dots on map). Three of the handles raise the gates, while the fourth lowers one of the gates. The handle just left of the gates opens gate F and the adjacent handle opens door E. The handle just right of the door opens gate D. Proceed forward and make sure to turn left at the intersection, as the other path leads to a rat pen and nothing else. Above the pen is a bridge guarded by two Goblins, one of them boss-leveled (A) and the boss chest at B. Finally backtrack to door C leading back to Fort Ash.

Occupants:

  • 1 boss-level Goblin at location A on map
