The Stronghold Of Security Guide!

Introduction:
The Stronghold is a mini-game like dungeon that consists of four different levels of a maze like structure, complete with npcs to train on, doors that ask questions, and finally REWARDS! The dungeon is located in the middle of Barbarian Village, next to the mining spot and near the helmet shop. Go down the ladder to enter the dungeon.

Requirements:

There are no set stat requirements in order to get into the Stronghold Of Security. In fact, I've beaten it on a level 3 account. If you are a lower level I would recommend bringing food as the npcs can and will damage you. I would also not recommend bringing armour into the dungeon since you are going to be running all over the place. Energy is a must!

You must also have your recovery questions set in order to beat the dungeon!

The Dungeon:

Here is a map of the levels:
[url=MAP]

There are four levels of the dungeon. As each level gets higher the risk also increases.

The Levels:

The Vault Of War
The Catacomb Of Famine
The Pit Of Pestilence
The Sepulchre Of Death

The Vault Of War
The Vault Of War is the first level of the Stronghold. It's the easiest level to get through consisting of only a few low-level npcs. This level is multi-combat; however all of the others are not!

Npcs found:

Minotaurs - Levels 12 and 27.*
Goblins - Levels 16, 13, and 11.
Wolves - Level 11.

All of these npcs are aggressive, if you are within their levels, except for the Minotaurs.

How to get through The Vault Of War:
In order to get to the next level of the stronghold you must first find your reward from the Gift Of Peace. To do this make your way to the Exit Room located on the Eastern portion of this level.

You will want to follow this route in order to make it to your reward! Once you make it to the rewards room click on the "Gift Of Peace" chest to open it and you will receive 2,000 coins and a new emote.

The Catacomb Of Famine
Well done, you've made it to the second level! It's only a little bit harder then the first. Unless you're a really low-level this one should be a breeze, too.

Npcs Found:

Flesh Crawlers - Levels 28 and 41.*
Giant Rats - Level 26.
Zombies - Levels 30, 44, and 53.

How to get through The Catacomb Of Famine:
In order to pass through the Catacomb of Famine you must first collect your reward from the Grain of Plenty. To do this make your way to the Exit Room located in the middle of this level.
[url=routeforcatacomb]
You will want to follow this route to find your reward and exit room! Once you make it to the exit room click on the "Grain Of Plenty" so that you search it and find 3,000 coins as well as a new emote!

The Pit Of Pestilence
Uh oh, level 3.. Getting worried yet? This level should pose almost no threat to higher levels, but if you are level 50 or below it's gonna be a hard one!

Npcs Found:

Giant Spiders - Levels 24 and 50.
Catablepons - Levels 49, 64, and 68.*
Scorpions - Level 59.

How to get through the Pit Of Pestilence:
In order to get through the Pit of Pestilence you must first make it to the exit room, where your reward is located. To do this make your way for the Exit Room located in the middle of this level.
[url=routeforpit]
You will want to follow this route to make your way to the exit room. Once you get there make sure that you click on the "Box of Health" to get 5,000 coins and another new emote! Also, hence the name Box of Health, it will replenish your stats when you search it! Awesome news for low-levels I bet!

The Sepulchre of Death
You made it this far? Congrats! You made it to the final level. Beware; however this level is the hardest yet!

Npcs Found:

Skeletons - Levels 60, 68, and 85!
Ghosts - Levels 76 and 77.
Ankous - Levels 75, 82, and 86.*

How to get through the Sepulchre of Death:
In order to receive your final reward from the Stronghold you must first make it to the exit room of the Sepulchre of Death. It's located in the middle of this level.
[url=routeforsepulchre]
You will want to follow this route to make your way to the exit room. Once you get there click on the "Cradle of Life" and search it for your rewards! You will receive, once again a new emote and a new pair of boots! Once you receive your rewards be sure to exit the Stronghold by clicking on the chain.
[url=Cradle]

* indicates that these Npcs drop part of the skull sceptre. (A reward that can be obtained from Stronghold).

Rewards:
Emotes:

Flap
[url=flap]
Head Slap
[url=Head Slap]
Stamp
[url=Stamp]
Idea
[url=idea]

Boots:
You will have your choice of two different boots from the Cradle of Life.

Fancy Boots
[url=fancy]
Fighting Boots
[url=fighting]

Both boots have the exact same stats and only differ in the way they look. If you lose your boots or want to switch to the other, you can easily do so by returning to the Cradle of Life.

The Skull Sceptre
As you noticed the npcs marked with an asterisk all drop part of the Skull Sceptre.

Skull Right Half
The Skull Right Half is dropped by minotaurs on level 1.
[url=Skullright]
Bottom of Sceptre
The bottom of the Sceptre is dropped by Flesh Crawlers in level 2.
[url=bottomofs]
Top of Sceptre
The top of the Sceptre is dropped by Catablepon in level 3.
[url=topofs]
Skull Left Half
And the Skull Left Half is dropped by Ankous in level 4.
[url=skullleft]

By putting all these pieces together you will form a skull sceptre which can be wielded as a weapon, although it has not very desirable stats, but it will also provide you with 5 teleports to Barbarian village! After you use up these 5; however it will disintegrate and you will have to make another.
