Walk Through
Part 1: Preparation
- Find Le-Ai Rea at 75.9S 57.3E and hand her the Skull of High Acolyte. She will return a Golden Key and Le-Ai Rea's Key.

- Enter the Mines of Despair at 75.4S 57.2E.
Part 2A: Mines of Despair (Levers)
Note: One person with Lockpick (Skill) can accomplish this part of the quest alone, while the rest of the party "holds the doors".
- From the drop, head north and unlock the wooden door with the Golden Key.
- Tip: If you have a group, have someone hold this door for you, as you'll need to come back through it.
- Go left at the split and jump down into the pit.
- Hug the left wall until you reach a locked door at the bottom of a wide ramp. Unlock it.
- Take a right at the next split, and then your first left.
- At the next split, take a right, and then hug the wall left until you reach an intersection that has a pit to your left and a small square room to your right.
- Open the door to the small square room and use the wall lever to open the first door.
- Back out of the room,.jump down into the pit, and hug the wall left until you reach another small square room with a wall lever. Pull this lever to open the second door.
- Now portal recall to bring you back to the Mines of Despair drop.
- Head north and take a right at the split to join your group.
- Note: If the first door has closed already, use your Golden Key to open it again.
Part 2B: Mines of Despair (Inactive Focusing Stone)
Note: While one person is doing the levers (above), the rest of the group should follow this walk through.
- Head north through the first door, then take a right at the split.
- Jump down into the pit, run down the ramp to the north, then hug the wall right until you reach a lever-activated door.
- One the door opens (from the lever runner), one person should hold it while the rest continue.
- Once through the door, take your first right, then your first.
- Hug the left wall until you reach another lever-activated door, in a larger room with Undead Miners.
- Again, wait here for the lever to be pulled, and when it opens, hold the door.
- Once your party is all together, move down the linear dungeon until you reach the Lich Overseer. Kill him and loot an Inactive Focusing Stone from his corpse (drops 3).
- [OPTIONAL] While in this room, you can also loot a Empyrean Sun Stone, which is used in Diemos Flagging and in making Crafting Golems.
- Now, use Le-Ai Rea's Key on the door to the west, follow the hall into a larger room, and enter the portal to Beyond the Mines of Despair.
Part 3: Beyond the Mines of Despair
- From the drop, follow the linear dungeon until you reach a suspended bridge.
- Move to the center of the bridge and jump off to the West side.
- Run around to the North West, then use the ramp down on the East side.
