There’s also the fact that your grappling hook becomes empowered. Necromancers get some hefty love with each activated urn giving players a healthy boost to their Necromancer spells. However, that’s not the only highlight of that entire dungeon. On the other hand, another boss requires players to move to alcoves above the boss, using those alcoves to find runes that will stop the rooms from engulfing into flames. One boss requiring players to move off the center platforms as they others become engulfed in flames and forcing players onto the side platforms itself in order to avoid the wipe. One encounter forcing players to take time to learn how to use the grappling hook mechanic in some form or another. It’s a forgettable experience when it comes to comparing it to its sister dungeon, Unhallowed Grave, which is a beast of its own, which takes an hour alone on Normal and almost an hour and a half on Veteran mode, which made this dungeon a beast of its own. It was simply a grind, beat down one enemy and move to the next, in one encounter, using spacing between two of them to keep them from becoming virulent foes.įrom there, it was just a boss-to-boss dash, each one feeling as if it was just a boss rush without any real wear for working your way through the entire place.

Having not had a chance to run it with my fellow adventurer, Elona, I ended up doing this dungeon crawl with random players from within the game, making it a bit more difficult than I’d hoped for at the start. Out of the two dungeons, you’ll get the most out of Icereach itself, which proves to be something of a grueling chore if you aren’t used to mechanic-heavy encounters. The dungeons, the former itself being the most linear of the two, will find that the dungeons themselves offer a good experience each, both averaging between 30 and 40 minutes on Normal and sometimes exceeding an hour and a half on Veteran.īoth dungeons feature armor sets that focus on specific playstyles based on the bonuses they offer, but only do a small bit to force players into diversifying what kind of builds they use, especially if you already have better gear from places such as Trials of the Sun.
