- Key quest: Focus in the Mountain Fortress.
- Notable loot checks: Focus from Mountain Fort, Certificate, Orc Hammer, and Victorybringer.
Before You Go
Save before the bridge approach, bring healing, and check your weapon route. If the bridge golem, harpies, bloodhounds, or stone golems are outpacing your gear, detour through builds and armor first.
