Overview
Spacious interiors with ambush potential on upper levels. Mark routes and secure benches before committing to deeper loops.
Map Highlights
- Benches: Distributed across main chambers—grab each.
- Via Bells: Unlocks save significant time between chambers.
- Merchant: Purchase the local map from Shakra when present.

- Approach: Follow signage from neighboring hubs; listen for Shakra’s humming.
- Buy and rest: Purchase the area map, then rest at a bench to update. Quill/Compass help in broad, multi‑level rooms.
- Missed it? You can meet Shakra later to buy missed maps.
Hazards & Traversal
- Balcony crossfire: Clear ranged patrols on upper tiers before engaging below.
- Heavy patrols: Separate groups; pull enemies into safer corners.
- Elevators/levers: Flip loops early to shorten retries between chambers.
- Long spans: Plan resources for extended sequences between benches.
Suggested Chamber Loop
- Entry → First Bench: Anchor a nearby bench to checkpoint retries.
- Bench → Shakra: Buy the Slab map; add Quill/Compass for orientation.
- Loop unlocks: Open elevator/door levers that link back to your bench or bell.
- Balcony clears: Remove upper ranged threats before committing to floor fights.
- Extend: Tackle one or two chambers per run; bank progress frequently.
Bench Order (Suggested)
- Approach Bench: First checkpoint near initial chambers.
- Mid‑Slab Bench: Cuts travel during loop unlocks and multi‑room pushes.
- Bell‑adjacent Bench: Best once fast travel is active for multi‑phase objectives.
Tips for Multi‑Level Fights
- Fight for height: Owning the balcony reduces crossfire below.
- Use cover: Pillars/arches create heal windows and break line‑of‑sight.
- Control spawns: Pull patrols into chokepoints; avoid getting surrounded.
Route Tips
- Vertical threats: Clear ledges first; avoid crossfire from above.
- Path memory: Use short scouting arcs until layouts are internalized.
- Links: Pairs well with Underworks and adjacent hubs.
FAQ
- Where’s the map vendor? On/near a main approach corridor—listen for humming and follow signage.
- I keep getting cross‑fired—what helps? Clear balconies first, use cover, and pull enemies into chokepoints.
- Any recommended upgrades? Health/needle upgrades and mobility help with longer spans.
