For this dungeon, we still do not require any specific (B) armour. Use the familiars made earlier and let them do most of the work. Make sure whatever equipment you are wearing doesn't result in death, and whatever weapon you are using should once again provide the highest hit-chance that you can find. Melee again works fine for this dungeon, as it doesn't consume runes or ammunition.

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 once. Melee is recommended to benefit from the combat triangle.

The monsters in the trickery temple deal a lot more damage than previous dungeons. On top of that, the enemies there have a reflect mechanic (where part of the damage the player deals is inflicted back upon the player), and a mechanic where the enemies' max hit is based on the player's max hit. All enemies in this dungeon are also magic-based. It is therefore highly recommended to use the ranged combat style, preferably with [[Ranged#Javelins|javelins]] or [[Ranged#Throwing_Knives|throwing knifes]] to lower the player's max hit, but at the expense of clear time.

Continue using your Aeris God armour setup for this dungeon. These monsters do not have the mechanic where they base their max hit off of the player's max hit, a crossbow with bolts can be used. As soon as enough {{ItemIcon|Barrier Exalted Shard}} and {{ItemIcon|Siphoning Barrier Gem}} have been obtained to upgrade the first item, it is advised to go collect barrier dust. All of the individual armour pieces have the same passive effect, so the order in which they are upgraded doesn't matter. Start with the armour piece that costs the fewest Barrier Shards and Siphoning Gems.

===Merman===
=== Merman ===
The best weapon, by far, for killing Mermans is the Engulfing Vortex Longbow. Therefor it is suggested to get this bow from Mermaid Archers before killing Mermans. Mermans have a significantly lower maximum hit. As a result, the player needs a much lower auto-eat threshold and damage reduction. It is suggested to use a {{ItemIcon|Ranged Strength Potion IV}} or {{ItemIcon|Diamond Luck Potion IV}}, whichever results in more kills per hour.

=== Merman Guard===
Merman Guards can be killed with the {{ItemIcon|Cloudburst Staff}} or the {{ItemIcon|Water Pulse Staff}} effectively. However, because the Water Pulse Staff provides 8% extra damage reduction over the Cloudburst Staff, a player would need more hitpoints and more damage reduction to idle this enemy effectively.

The enemies, and especially the {{MonsterIcon|Nagaia}} hit '''very''' hard in this dungeon. A lot of damage reduction is required in order to idle this dungeon without dying. Alternatively, the player can return after having progressed through the {{Icon|Throne of the Herald Expansion|notext=true|img=TotH|}} [[Throne of the Herald]] expansion. Having more hitpoints or other damage reducing and damage inflicting bonusses can greatly speed up the clear times of this dungeon.
