Red Dwarf Mines

Walkthrus for Archer Promotion & the Rescue


Mao of the Red Dwarf Mines
Dwarven Potion
King Hothfarr IX of Stone City agrees to fix your Castle in Harmondale if you perform this Quest .  Rescue the 7 dwarves left behind in the Red Dwarf Mines by administering a special potion.


The rescue itself involves only the upper level of the mines and each Dwarf is fairly easy to find.  The only trouble you will have is with the oozes.  Use anything of fire against them, spells, wands, weapons, etc.  Enchant your weapons with fire aura, or if your weapons are already enchanted with something else, then grab what you find in the mine carts and laying on the floor and enchant them.
Lift Belt
The Archer Promotion to Warrior Mage revolves around the lift and takes place on the lower level of the mines.  Basically you need to get past the medusas and place the worn belt Steagal Snick gives you on the Machine deep in the mine and get out in an hour.
The medusas can be difficult, they paralyze and turn you to stone.  A protection from magic spell is very helpful, but items of the Medusa make you immune to stoning if you can land any of them.  One enchantress here will produce a Special Item ,  Medusa's Mirror which is an amulet. Equip it on who ever seems to be the most susceptible to their stone attacks.  
There are several potions of remove stone and cure paralysis laying about, I'd suggest grabbing them.  Spells do not work against these gals so the best tactic is get in close very quickly and pound them in real time combat mode.  Save often!
