Why run this Stronghold? It is the first Stronghold accessible in the game and therefore the first to provide equipment for the [[Enhancement]] slots. The three Standard and three Augmented Enhancements each provide a boost to one of combat loot doubling (2% or 4%), melee max hit (3% or 6%), or global skill XP (2% or 4%). The {{Item|Undead Enhancement (Superior)|Superior Enhancement}} combines the Augmented boosts and adds an accuracy boost (+4% Accuracy Rating per attack turn, up to 5 times).
