Deepest dungeon ever?
Most extensive labyrinth?
|
From the top of my head...probably Tusker Emporium as the longest dungeon, it seemed to go on forever. Not sure I would call it a labyrinth, though --Tiger1986 12:31, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
The answer to these questions depend on many things.
Deepest Dungeon
- Do you mean the dungeon would the lowest z-axis point from the /loc output?
- Do you mean the dungeon with the greatest difference in levels?
- Do you mean lore-wise, the dungeon which digs deepest into the earth?
I have no idea what the dungeon with the lowest z-axis reading is, but that seems like a poor measurement for depth. A single level dungeon could happen to be placed at the bottom of the game world, but it'd hardly be deep.
Greatest difference in levels may be any number of dungeons. The original Black Death Catacombs was quite deep. While the dungeon was later broken up into two segments, the original layout was duplicated to create the Black Death Catacombs Quiddity Seed. This dungeon also holds, I believe, the deepest underground pit, with a drop of 14 levels. The Pit is also quite deep, with a total of 16 levels. The Bellig Tower has 16 levels, and the Zabool Tower has 14. Another one worth mentioning is the Roost Dungeon. It has huge pits as seen in the bridge room, at at the end, a series of staircases which seem to go on forever. And the pit in the Mukkir Infested Black Spear Temple adds quite a bit of depth to that dungeon. Another one worth mentioning is the Roots of the Deru Tree.
As for dungeons which in the lore are the deepest in the earth, my guesses would be the dungeons within the Fathomless Chasm, the dungeons of the Olthoi Chasm, or perhaps some very ancient Falatacot dungeon.
Extensive labyrinth
- Do you simply mean the dungeon with the longest distance between two points?
- Do you mean most expansive?
- And do you only mean a single dungeon in a single landblock, or do interconnected dungeons like the Olthoi Arcade count?
I would guess, in simple terms of longest distance between two point, the dungeon would be either one of the many pointlessly long dungeons of the Throne of Destiny era, an olthoi dungeon, or one of the Bur dungeons - like the Northern Catacombs, which go on for quite a ways.
Largest total area might also go to a Bur dungeon, though the Black Death Catacombs were originally quite large.
And if we are including series of dungeons, the ones to note would be the Olthoi Chasm dungeons, Olthoi Arcade, the Olthoi Weapons dungeons, and I suppose the entire series of Bur dungeons, since for example to complete saving Asheron you need to go through the entrance, the town, the Southern Catacombs, the Upper Catacombs, the Temple of the Three, and then finally the Ritual Chambers.
