To use one of these in the offhand and one as a wield, you need to fade one and transmute it lighter/heavy Or have poise practiced.

The four different items have their own damage types and resistances:

====Grey Orb of Stone====
''Radiating with the power of massiveness, of slowed down time, this grey orb of stone sits on the ground, ragged like a mountain range in miniature, an assembly of crags and tors, of canyons and glaciers. So much resistance in a fist of stone.''

Mobs are aggresive, so your best bet is to speedwalk. Most mobs can not see invis however, so that should help a bit.

Portal to [[Stone Trickster|stone trickster]]. e2s, pull bloom, 2sesese3sdesuwn. You are now in a room with a [[Heavily Scarred Ent|heavily scarred ent]]. 

You can also get to the [[Heavily Scarred Ent|ent]] by going e2s, pull bloom, 2sws, enter hole, open south, 3sus. After you enter the hole, you are in a short, [[Private Rooms|private]] passage with [[Black Thin Tentacle|2 wandering mobs]]. A lot easier then going by the dissolvers, the wyrms, and the reanimator.

This is a safe room, so regen here if needed. Go u2s. From this point on, the rooms are [[Private Rooms|private]], [[No-Quit Rooms|noquit]], and you will [[No-Regen Rooms|not regen]].

Go down. From here, there are four directions to choose, all of which contain the gear you are looking for - the only difference is in their names. The direction you want to go will depend on your alignment and class. This can be done by Lord level players.

* '''North''' - No melee for good aligned players ('''Angelic casters''') - The Swirl of Fumes
* '''East''' - No magic for evil aligned players ('''Demonic brutes''') - The Grey Orb of Stone
* '''West''' - No melee for evil aligned players ('''Demonic casters''') - The Crackling Sphere of Lightning
* '''South''' - No magic for good aligned players ('''Angelic brutes''') - The Gnarled Branch of Age

[[Cloud Of Sweet Odours|The first mob]] holds [[Sweet-smelling Vapour|the key]]. Unlock the next door to get to [[Swirl Of Fragrant Fumes|the gear mob]].

Note that the room with the gear mob doesn't have an exit back to the room with the key mob, so if you for good spell item go through north door to gearmob from the mob with key, you can not go back south to the key mob. It has exits in all four directions and end out in the transfigured forest. 

If you die in one of these rooms, your corpse will be moved out into ''the forest''.
