Zone 1: Fort Gold-Throat

Fort Gold-Throat

Fort Gold-Throat is a fairly linear Goblin Lair and the boss-leveled chest is an easy one to reach. From door Out head forward and ignore the passages to the left and right for now. Continue until you reach a larger room with three levels. Jump down from the balcony and dispose of the two goblins patrolling the area. Nearby you will find two minor loot chests, a zombie corpse, a bloody skeleton and a number of iron weapons and equipment (C).

Jump down from the bridge into the level below, which hosts two rats, and take northern tunnel, which will lead you to the lair of the boss-leveled Goblin at A, which is behind a Swinging Mace (D) triggered by the Pressure Plate at E. Also nearby is the fort's boss chest (B). From here, head southwest to the room with the bridge and loot the nearby chest.

You have two options now. The tunnel to the southwest leads to a dead-end catacomb-like structure with a minor loot chest guarded by an undead enemy. The southeastern tunnel instead leads you to a small balcony overlooking a room full of stone tombs, with an iron shield and an iron war axe nearby. From here you can snipe at the enemy below, or jump down to engage it. Once dispatched, use the fallen statue and wooden planks in the northwestern corner to climb out and return to the front door.
