Befallen

Went to Befallen a couple weeks ago to ***** around and kill time (and skeletons). I went to the door that used to take the "Splintered Wooden Key" which drops off the first "a shadowknight" and clicked on it (with no key or lockpicks on my cursor) and it opened.

Is the first door no longer locked? I can confirm that doors 2 and 3 are still locked.

It's also a shame to see this zone empty all of the time. Years ago it was a great place to go after East Commonlands. It's a fun zone and a good place to get players used to dungeons.

I walked was walking along the wall, into it, seeing if I could find any secret passages (I was lost on a lower level) and as you know you can see through the wall in most cases when doings so, and I saw a mob named Wraps McGee. I couldn't find a way into his room, though.

Found him: -626, -171. Red to a level 25. Right clicking him gives the message "You suspect that this being can see you."

any information on the instanced befallen?

Was running around in befallen yesterday, (mid april 2004) And i get this message:

a giant rat shouts 'Grrrraaaaaaaaugggggh! You have disturbed my rest! Suffer as I have!'

Anyone know what it is / was?

Seems to be level 7 or 8. Standard skeleton that dual weilds a random rusty weapon and a rusty mining pick.

A new NPC has appeared in Befallen. His name is Zeek, a halfling cleric. I was showing my friend's 17 bard around and found him near the entrance. He cons red to my 46 ranger. I hailed him and he said something about so much undead to kill, so little time. He asked what I wanted. He said perhaps i am after the potions? When I say what potions, he does not answer. I assume he is waiting for a turnin of some sort. Anyone have an clues?

this zone has really emptied out
i was here hangin out and killin stuff and i did not see most of the named mobs there ... i killed boondin ... but he was the only one i saw
seems kinda empty now

If you start any class ( i'm cleric ) as a dark elf ( neriak/east commonlands ) you can easily solo this place, next to the WC zone point if you get in danger.
I started to solo there at lvl 9 and got out of there to go at LOIO at lvl 17, most of the mobs you catch till lvl 11-12 gives a whole blue and then when you see it dosent gives enough exp, NO dont go in the well!! Just kill the shadowknight, he will give you his key wich will make you able to go to the lower lvls of the zone, be careful tough.

i powerlevel my friend the best i could as a warrior, he got amazing exp in here. i reccomend it above all other powerleveling spots for lvls 1-20

Well I just got to Befallen to experiment with my 10 Dark Elf Wizzy, Grokke. When I say experiment I mean find out if its really as good/bad as people say, and gain some experience in the various zones of Norrath.

For anyone who's never been there, you must travel along the south wall of West Commonlands to get to the tunnel entrance. As soon as I entered the very first time, I walsked forward into the dark hall and was immediately attacked by a Greater Skeleton, pulled by a higher level character.

I should have run away with my tail between my legs, of course, but instead I tried to fight it. I was dead almost instantly. The Greater Skeleton was something completely new to me, and I was used to Decaying Skeletons in Nektulos that die if you sneeze on them.

So I went all the way back, being more careful this time, and within a few minutes of hanging by the entrance, I had formed a small trio of Dark Elves. Together, we went deeper into the dungeon through one of it's four starting doors.

After killing a few regular skeletons and a plague rat, we were aggroed by the fierce (at least to my level) Skeleton Lrodd. This guy is about level 12-14, and because of our unnatural talents we turned him into a pile of bones without suffering serious injury.

AFter camping another dark room for about 10 minutes, we killed a simple Dark Elf Shadowknight that carried a splintered wooden key. One of my groupies knew what this went to, and we followed him to a locked door in the main hall. After walking through an open holl in the wall and going deeper down into the second level, we were able to kill our first zombies and mummies.

These undead seemed to pour out of the hallway, and when the battle was over one of our groupies lay dead. The two of us were fiercly angry at every undead creature in the dungeon at this point, and we headed down the hallway killing Greater Skeletons and Plague Rats. The experience at this point was great, and I had just reached level 11.

Suddenly, as we charged down a dark corrider, we entered a room and found ourselves falling to the ground, perhaps ten feet down. We had fallen through a pit trap, and the hole above us was impossibly out of reach. We both chose to go out through the only exit known to us, a closed wooden door. Shakily, I opened the door not knowing we were hopelessly lost in the middle of the third and most dangerous floor.

All sorts of undead, as well as willowisps, began attacking us at once. My partner tried to fight them, but I ran on through the door and down a dark hall seemingly filled with skeletons. I didn't make it far, and died from the onslaught of skeletons.

I learned a lot about this dungeon in my short visit, and once I reached level 11 again, I stayed there and began to hunt the skeletons once more, as it is obviously a great newbie dungeon.
