Read the next approach before the crowd closes behind you. Keep somewhere to move when a gallery fills.

Before you descend
Keep a way through the workings.
Timber supports give way to black rock and ember light. Rails and obstacles divide the galleries. Watch both the ground and the enemies closing in.
Prepare for the heat
Magic resistance helps against elemental damage. Armour still matters when the mine's creatures close into melee.
Know your defencesWatch the pressure grow
The enemy roster changes as the raid continues. A quiet opening does not guarantee a safe route back.

Make room for the last fight.
Ettin Warlord is the mine's current final boss. Prepare for that fight as carefully as the journey through the galleries. Defeat the boss and extract with the equipment you carry.

A new class, a different Tome or a piece of equipment can change the way you meet the same threats.
