Explore Lyngaeli's Nightmare and Walk-Through
Lyngaeli's Nightmare is a fascinating zone for characters to solo and explore in
small forms before they reach level 26. As long as you are under level 26, you can
enter the zone, including characters which are level 26 in their final class.
This zone is quite challenging, so it is recommended that you explore it as a
triple or quad class character approaching level 26 and ideally, you should bring
one or two friends along for the trip.
The zone is divided into smaller sub-areas which can be accessed by finding keys
and entering boxes which transport you from one place to another.
These boxes are one-way. There are only two ways out of the zone, to die, or to
reach the end.
The zone also has its own currency, tokens, which can be used to purchase items from
the Guardian of Dreams, or the Harbinger of Nightmares, who can be found wandering
the zone. To find nightmare tokens to spend in this way, be sure to search the corpses
of the mobs you kill. Just about every mob has a chance to load tokens.
The zone also has super hidden mobs, which can't be seen (except for a blank line
under the room description) and can't be targeted directly with spells and skills.
If you encounter super hidden mobs, you'll need to use room attacks to defeat them.
The zone also has some unusual procs, which make it appear like other players are
in the zone with you, and sometimes, like those players have attacked you.
You can safely ignore these procs, though they might give you a bit of a surprise
the first time you see them.
If you're travelling in a form, ensure that the leader holds all of the keys.
A number of the keys in this zone enable you to move through barriers -- if the
leader is holding the key, then the whole party will pass through -- if someone
else is holding the key, then only the player holding the key will get through
and the rest will be left behind.
Some mobs in this zone are aggressive to blood, so keep this in mind if you're going
to be fighting with other players.
Walkthrough
1. Entering the Nightmare
•Head all north within the zone and sleep to enter the nightmare.
•When you awaken, move north and enter box.
2. The Forest
•Move two north, three west, open door, west and kill grandma (!dis fireshield).
Loot her amulet.
The amulet will crumble if you pant, so make sure you move slowly and steadily and
keep your quickness cast while you are holding it.
•Go five east, two north, hold amulet and move down through a barrier (the amulet
will crumble).
•Move north, east and get dust barrel (component).
You don't need to kill the spiders here, but they're decent experience and load
a 58 stone backpack.
•Go west, north and kill Helvyra (!dis fireshield). Loot her needle.
•Return to the room up from the barrier (two south, up).
•From above the barrier, move south, then east. Hold the needle and search until
an exit opens to the east.
•Go two east and enter box to move to the next area.
3. The Pier
•Explore the pier until you find a clown that has loaded a pair of stilts.
Kill the clown and loot the stilts.
•From the entrance to this area, move 4N, W.
•Wear stilts, move one north and kill the bloody, flayed cows. You will receive
a cowbell (slippery).
•Move south, east, north, east, south and search until a door opens east.
•Move east and kill Cyhaeck (dispellable sanc) and loot his safe key.
•Unlock safe in this room, open safe and loot the golden toothpick.
•Move west, north, west and type "unlock door toothpick" to unlock the door.
You will be unable to unlock the door unless you specify which key to use,
so it's necessary to add "toothpick" to the end of the command here. You will need
to do this again with the sliver of ice a bit later in the run.
•Open the door and move one north to enter the funhouse.
4. The Funhouse
•Move west and kill the two marionettes, which are blocking the up exit.
•Go up, hold cowbell, west and kill Gigglesworth (dispellable sanc).
Loot the painted figure.
•Before you leave the room "get pot" to get a small pot of red paint (component).
Because Gigglesworth is in the room immediately after a barrier which crumbles a key,
this fight is effectively !flee if you don't want to bank your own run. If you flee,
you'll be unable to get back into the room to finish Gigglesworth off.
So, tick full before this fight and do everything you can to one-pass it.
•Move east, down, east, all north.
•Hold figure and search until an exit opens in the western wall.
•Move 2W and enter box to access the ball pit.
5. The Ball Pit
•Explore the ball pit until you find a yellow ball holding a tiny key.
Kill this ball and loot the key.
The ball pit can be fantastic experience if your group is able to handle the larger
packs. You can judge the difficulty of a pack relatively easily by looking at the
colour of the balls. Each colour represents a particular character class.
•Find an intersection with exits north, east and south.
•From here, go east, down, west, up, east, up.
•Hold key, move south and kill The Man Who Wasn't There (superhidden).
Loot the sliver of ice.
•Before you leave the room, type "get warrior" to get a warrior statue (component).
Like Gigglesworth, The Man Who Wasn't There is in a single room behind a barrier.
If you flee from this fight, or accidentally leave the room before you loot the
sliver of ice and the warrior, you'll be unable to complete your run.
•Return to the intersection with exits north, east and south.
•From here, go north, up, west, up, north, up and "unlock door sliver".
•Move two north and enter box to access the toy store.
6. The Toy Store
•Move north, east and kill the bear. Search the corpse and loot the chest key.
•Go two north, two west. Unlock and open the chest in this room and loot the dragon
charm.
•Move two east, south, two east, south, west.
•Wear charm and move one south.
•Kill the Fatally Wounded Doll and Zekynaek (superhidden, !dis fireshield).
Loot the dollhouse key.
•Before you leave the room, type "get claw" to loot the final component.
•Move north, east, north, six west, south and open door.
•Go one east and buy toy (make sure you have the dust, pot, toy and claw in your
inventory). You will receive a toy soldier with a dragon horn.
•Go west, north, three east, north and "unlock door key".
•Move north, up. Type "wind toy". Then "drop toy".
•Lyngaeli will awaken and will give you a necklace for later in the run.
•Move north to enter the castle.
7. The Castle
•Move up, north and kill the guardians in this room (blockers).
•Open doors and move north, west, down, north. Kill the Guardian of Wayward Dreams
and loot the glass key.
•Type "unlock cell east key" and the move east. Allow Danyyel to follow you.
•Move west, south, up, east, north, where Danyyel will open the doors for you.
•Move three north and tick full before your next fight. When you're ready, move
one north and kill Gloomorphis.
Seach the corpse of Gloomorphis, as some of the equipment he can load is initially
hidden.
•Move five south, east, then search until an exit opens in the northern wall.
•Move north and look at the wayward nightmares that load in this area until you find
the one holding a key. Kill it and loot the key.
The wayward nightmares are super-hidden mobs. You won't be able to see whether they
're in the room until you look at them, or use a room attack.
•Head all east in this area and search to open an exit through the northern wall.
•Move north, up, 4N, up, 2S, unlocking and opening doors as you come across them.
•Wear the necklace that you received from Lyngaeli.
•Type "unlock door south key", then open the door and move south to engage Keneol
(!dis fireshield).
•Move south and type "enter portal".
•Go east and wait for Lyngaeli to give you The Dreamstone, which completes the run.
Explore Walkthrough
The explore walkthrough for this zone is largely the same as the full zone run out
lined above. The only major differences are:
1. Staff of Resplendence
You need to ensure that you loot at least three nightmare tokens along the way
(remember to search corpses to find these) and you need to buy a Staff of Resplendence
from the Harbinger of Nightmares at some point your run.
The Harbinger of Nightmares moves around the zone, so when you are trying for the
explore, you should aim to check each area thoroughly before moving on -- if you
find the Harbinger of Nightmares, stay long enough to loot three nightmare tokens,
then buy the staff before you enter the next box in the walkthrough.
2. Your Reflection
To complete the objective that asks you to kill your reflection, you need to look in
one of two mirrors that can be found in the Fun House area. There are two rooms in
this area titled "Hall of Mirrors". When you are in one of these rooms, type look
mirror, which will cause a mob to pop and attack you. Kill the mob and if it doesn't
complete the objective, find the other room titled "Hall of Mirrors" and look in the
mirror to trigger one more mob to attack. Kill that and the objective should be done.
If the first mob you kill does the job, there's no need to trigger the second one --
it's not needed for the main zone run.
Guardian of Dreams & Harbinger of Nightmares
If you run into the Guardian of Dreams or the Harbinger of Nightmares in the main zone
(not the introductory adjunct before you sleep, where they both also load),
then you can purchase items off them using tokens.
The items they have for sale are as follows:
Guardian of Dreams
a vial of harmful thoughts - Lev(15) MaxLev(26) Loc(hold) [RELOAD BONDS] Spell[curse, blindness, cause serious:15 Chgs:1/1) Days 7
a scepter of ill health - Lev(10) MaxLev(26) Loc(hold) [RELOAD BONDS] Spell[plague:15 Chgs:3/3) Days 185
a scroll of withering flesh - Lev(15) MaxLev(26) Loc(hold) [RELOAD BONDS] Spell(curse, poison, weaken:15 Chgs:1/1) Days 7
