This article is a strategy guide for Stronghold of the Undead.
Information on equipment, mechanics and strategies are on this page.

This Stronghold contains 72 Monsters, all of which deal Pure Damage.
Accessing this Stronghold requiresError creating thumbnail: File missing
Slayer Level 10 and 25 clears of the Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Undead Graveyard.
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 Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Superior Enhancement combines the Augmented boosts and adds an accuracy boost (+4% Accuracy Rating per attack turn, up to 5 times).

Simulation Notes
- The food and clears per hour are calculated using the Standard tier, so these quantities will be slightly lower when running the Augmented and Superior tiers of this Stronghold.
- All data was gathered from the Combat Simulator. For more accurate numbers you will have to plug in your own data on top of the setups.
- If you wish to tweak the Combat Simulator exports yourself, they can be found here.

Scimitar.
