Dreadnought's Drift

Dreadnought's Drift is the name given to the small, relatively open bottleneck between Lornar's Pass and Snake Dance. The area is densely populated with large groups of giants and Stone Summit, but the true terror of this area is Maw the Mountain Heart, who makes its lair here along the eastern cliff faces. Although it seems an unlikely place, a statue of Dwayna can be found here, visible on the map as a pale ring along the southern cliff face.

[edit] Notes

• Vanquishing this area requires killing 114-124 monsters.
• There used to be two chests in this area which required no key to open. The lost strongbox, and the frozen chest. Out of each chest about 5-10 weapons and armor pieces would drop. This was a very well kept secret but was eventually taken out for obvious reasons.
• Complete exploration of this area contributes approximately 0.4% to the Tyrian Cartographer title.
• Consider bringing enchantment removal, as there are two groups of Stone Summit consisting of 3 Dolyak Masters, along with several others. Also, when fighting these groups, try to flag or have the party hide behind a wall, and body block to funnel them as much as you can.
