Category:Gear In Ascension

Recommended group size: around 20 (run is known as Tialoc)

Shift to Tarterus and go w 2u 2n. This will put you in a courtyard with towers to the east, west, and north. The gear that you're seeking is in the tower to the north, but you'll need to collect the Tooled Bone and Black Marble Key first (if you don't have them already).

The Tooled Bone is on Rastar The Injestor, who waits atop the tower to the east, who shows up as a "Huge winged demon picks at something caught between his teeth" on scan.

The Black Marble Key is held by Oblivion atop the west tower. The first room of the west tower is nospell, so it may be a good idea to speedwalk past it (from the Courtyard, w u). On scan Oblivion shows up as a "A vision of the end of the world drives you to your knees".

After you retrieve each key going down will bring you back to the courtyard between the three towers.

Both the east and west tower are entirely linear, so you don't really have to worry about taking a wrong turn. All three towers are incredibly swarmy, so it's important to have attentive tanks to keep the casters from splatting.

Once you have both keys you can enter the Twisted Tower to the north. This tower is just as swarmy (if not worse) than the previous two, but unlike the others this one is a maze. After going north to enter this tower go eswsue to make it through the maze. At this point you'll be in a room with a locked door above you. Behind that door is Tialoc The Archfiend, who has the Ring Of Higher Power and the Lord's Head Chalice. If you clear the gear room successfully and want to camp it, the room west of Tialoc is your safest option.
