Walkthrough

This fight takes place in an instance.
On death, all unprotected items will be moved to a grave outside the instance. Any items left on the ground will be lost.

Note: If you log out, you lose your progress and appear above the rift next time you log in. However, you can clear a room and exit, with your progress starting over to the last room you cleared.

Starting out

  • From Varrock, head north-east towards the Digsite talk to Launa by the rift. (Chat 1)
  • Enter the rift with your rope.
    • Note: This will generate a cut scene. Do not click outside of the text boxes as you will return to the surface.

Room 1 - Anger

Room 2 - Fear

  • Look inside the dark holes, some will have a fear reaper.
    • You cannot search the same hole repeatedly. Search the holes going clock-wise for as many rotations as it takes to get your kills.
  • Kill 5 or 6 reapers to get a cutscene.
  • Enter the black hole to the west.

Room 3 - Confusion

  • Defeat confusion beasts until you find the one that takes damage. The "fake" ones give combat XP on missed hits and will vanish after 8 hits.
    • You can disengage a beast by running to the opposite end of the room.
    • If you're attacking a fake one, you can swap to a fast attacking weapon to kill it faster.
    • If you quickly swap after attacking one(darts/knife), you can check for 2 fakes and only have to hit one of them 8 times
  • Repeat until one door remains to get the cutscene.
  • Enter the remaining confusing door.

Room 4 - Hopelessness

  • Kill all the hopeless creatures 3 times each.
  • Cross the bridge and prepare to fight Tolna (3 level-46 monsters).

Finishing up

Note: You must finish the final cutscene/dialogue before attacking the heads or you will be returned to the entrance!
