Overview

• Though the creatures in this dungeon are listed as "Shadows", preferred attack is lightning. The Shadowslayer does not seem to have a much better effect, and fire does less damage.
• The Lugians in this quest inflict hollow type damage.

Walkthrough & Notes

1. Run to 12.2N, 81.1W and enter the hole in the ground to the Shadow Lugian Stronghold.
   • Route 1: Aerlinthe to Northwest Direlands.
   • Route 2: Town Network (north wing) to Fort Tethana.
   • Route 3: Mansion to Black Spawn Den Portal Device (North Dires).
2. Make your way to the end of the dungeon, and enter the Inner Stronghold (80+).
3. Kill Shoktok.
4. Loot the Doppelganger Shield from the boss. It drops 5 per kill. Shoktok, just like the other 2 Shadow Lugian Bosses, drops 1 Coda. If there are more than 3 people in your group, you might want to kill him more often.
5. Pick up the Filthy Key from on top of the barrel near Shoktok.
6. Backtrack back up and use the key on the door.
7. Fight your way to Urleg in the Lava Room. Kill him and loot a Doppelganger Robe from his corpse (he drops 5), and, if needed, a Coda.
8. Fight your way further down to Amaroth. Kill him and loot A Patch of Balor's Fur from his corpse (he drops 5), and, if needed, a Coda.
9. You can, but must not, fight your way further down to a room with a fast spawn of Shadow Lugians. Kill the Shadow Lugian Portal, and a portal will spawn
10. Enter, and you will see a NPC Shadow Lugian, called Shadow. If you talk to him, he portals you to Sub.
11. Return to Lord Kresovus in Linvak Tukal, and hand him the Coda to get experience. Handing him A Patch of Balor's Fur gives you additional experience.

Dialog

Opening Dialog

Lord Kresovus tells you, "Greetings, small one. It looks like we have seen the worst of the siege on Linvak Tukal, but not without losses. My poor Balor..."

Lord Kresovus tells you, "My scouts still report the demons who attacked us have a base somewhere in the northermost reaches of the Direlands."

Lord Kresovus tells you, "If you seek to repay the invaders who took so much from us then seek them there. Return whatever information you might find."

Lugian Prisoners

Lugian Prisoner tells you, "Though they saw fit to lock us in these filthy cages, they took Balor somewhere deep within. I fear what plans they may have in store for our Lord's most favored companion."

Lugian Prisoner tells you, "There was something about the infiltration... something about the ease at which the Shadows were repelled. I fear there is some aspect of this plot that remains hidden from view. I only hope we might uncover it before these Shadows get the best of us."

Lugian Prisoner tells you, "Friend! You have come to aid us!"

Lugian Prisoner tells you, "These Shadows hail from somewhere deep within. I know not what lies down there. Some sort of portal to the world below, I fear. You must travel to the bottom of this pit. Shut down their access to the surface world. Otherwise, I fear we may become overrun with these demons."

Lugian Prisoner tells you, "As for us, leave us be. We will wait for their security to grow lax, and then we will strike from within! We will take these curs by surprise and avenge the glory of Linvak Tukal!"

Lugian Prisoner tells you, "There was something about the infiltration... something about the ease at which the Shadows were repelled. I fear there is some aspect of this plot that remains hidden from view. I only hope we might uncover it before these Shadows get the best of us."

Handing in Coda

You give Lord Kresovus Coda.

Lord Kresovus tells you, "These are grim tidings indeed. But valuable - most valuable information. You have done Linvak Tukal a great service. You are indeed marked for greatness."

You've earned 15,000,000 experience.

Handing in A Patch of Balor's Fur

You give Lord Kresovus A Patch of Balor's Fur.

Lord Kresovus tells you, "Balor... What have they done to you?"

Lord Kresovus slumps forward, obviously overcome with grief. After a short moment, he remembers himself, his position, and his company. Lord Kresovus straightens his back and looks you in the eye.

Lord Kresovus tells you, "I thank you for your service. The heart grieves, but..."

Lord Kresovus tells you, "Thank you."

You've earned 25,000,000 experience.
