This is how I get across the chasm on Al'Kabor (65 cleric method). Yes, on the lame Mac server that doesn't have any expansions beyond PoP.


1) Load Divine Barriar and Divine Aura and get SoW 15 min before entering the zone. Do not get SoE or FoE as its a no levitate zone and they will be stripped upon entering The Deep.

2) Use an invis potion to get past the first 2 groups of mushrooms after entering The Deep from Echo. There is a safe spot after the second group where you can buff before the run.

3) Buff magic resist and disease resist (switch on some appropriate resist gear as well if you have) if you haven't done this earlier. During the run, DB is gonna drop and there will be a small window of opportunity for a mob to stun (magic based) or root (disease based) you before you cast Divine Aura and finish your run and jump into the chasm.

4) Cast Supernl Elxir (SE) upon yourself followed immediately by Divine Barriar and start running. Now, if you have maxed SCR and SCRM, SE will last 6 ticks meaning that during that very short window after DB drops and before DA is cast you will still have your HoT working.

5) Run and make the following turns: right--right--left--left--and then right into the opening to the chasm and jump in. Now, as you are running, if you have done SCR and SCRM to extend your buffs, right after the second left turn DB will drop and you have to stop to cast DA before making the final right turn and jump into the chasm. Right there is the only risky part of the run, but as DA casts in 1 second I seem to be able to get it off like 9 outa 10 times.

6) Once you hit the bottom, turn NW and run to and up the ramp and then camp out to remove any resiual aggro. I do not know for sure you have to camp out, but to me it's just sound play to remove any residual aggro your huge train generated.

Pleese deer frends, me am gonna take new gild here to go in mines of snakeman temple, need dyreckshuns to the door so we can go in and smash snakemen and skellies.

human translation.. please post or email directions to the ssra planning to do the cursed with guild (i want elphorns cleaver real bad).

My buddy (54 Shaman) and I (53 Mage ) duo here all the time. Hey pulls with slow , I root with Earth pet and tank with pet too. We can handle 2 or 3 pulls but be ready to run to the zone because the repop can't be much more than 5 mins.

When you get to the pit area you will find a lone shroom. Beat this shroom down to 10% health and then let him run.
He runs across the invis bridge to the other side.He runs across the invis bridge to the other side.
Well dang its just too easy! (BTW make sure u cross single file and dont kill him till you get to the other side).

I have heard that the spell "Acient: Gift of Ageoism" (cleric, level 60) drops off one of the burrowers in this zone. I heard it in game from someone that was doing an MGB of it. Anybody heard of anything like that?? Previously I tought it only dropped in 2 zones (several mobs in Vex Thal, Lord Protector in Sacntus Seru).

Thank you for your time;
Cass

Where is the invised bridge?

Watch out for the shriekers, they turned my level 53 Druid into a mushroom just for the purposes of humiliation and then killed me . No joke. It's some kind of curse spell apparently. Makes it really hard to run away.

Any info on making it thru here to the one-way door to temple, would seem to save a lotta time. Just curious, is there any better source for detailed zone strategy for places like these. My guild isnt uber that for sure, but we might do well with better lay of the land.

One big question for the deep is do the mobs see thru all types of inviso?

thanks

Call of Heros does NOT work here , not even at the entrace.And summon corpse only works at teh zone line. Kinda wierd with CoH .. when casting it says " A voice whispers in your mind. There are no heros here..." thought that was alil funny. Killer zone good luck to all.

As a 57 druid I too found it impossible to solo here. The mobs near the zone in are multiple pulls no matter what, go a little deeper and there are see invis mobs both directions. I tried pulling a mob to root dot while standing in what i thought might be a semi safe spot. Root did not stick and the mob hit hard abd fast for 220+. My rez took a little while since i forgot to bind in Shadowhaven and both this zone and Echo Caverns are unbindable zones.

Tried to solo in here.....big MISTAKE!! (55 Druid), first the shrooms (Shriekers or soemthing like that) have a slightly higher Magic Resistance, as I tried several times to root and was resisted. These things cast a knockback, melee slow, and stun spell. I managed to get a root and Winged Death (1274 hp of damage) and it did about 1/4 of total Hitpoints. The problem was keeping it rooted. When root held, it wasnt for very long either. Soloing here is not a good idea for a druid, Im thinking a Necro could do pretty well using Bond of Death while casting Compact Healing Line on your pet. All mobs on track from the entrance were blue to 55, and cons of the Enthralled Outcast "Ready to Attack" and Shriekers (mushroom things) were also "Ready to Attack". Hope this information helps at least 1 person there.
