This dungeon can be completed with ease, by using the same equipment as the previous dungeon. For instance, Ancient Armour will be more than enough to clear this dungeon. Just make sure you have enough damage reduction (combined with hitpoints) to survive the dungeon. Melee is recommended to benefit from the combat triangle.

There are no Barrier related items in this dungeon. However this dungeon does drop Ring of Malice (m) which is Best in Slot for non-Barrier content that takes less than 5 hits to die.
This dungeon also drops Doubling Gem which is well worth getting.
