Underground Pass (dungeon)



The Underground Pass is one of the ways of reaching Tirannwn, the western lands of RuneScape. It plays a major role in the Underground Pass quest.

In the early years the Underground Pass was a trading route used by the Elves. Later, when Prifddinas became under control of the evil elves, Iban (the spiritual son of Zamorak) took control of the Pass. During the "Underground Pass" quest, it is the player's job to kill Iban. After that, the Pass is under the command of King Lathas from East Ardougne. As of 9 November, the map has been updated to add bordering to certain areas underground. {C}

Since Iban studied under Lord Daquarius prior to taking over the Underground Pass, and Daquarius is only in his thirties at the time the game takes place (year 169), Iban himself is likely even younger; this would mean that his takeover of the Underground Pass was a relatively recent event.

Getting through the Underground Pass


The following only contains information on how to get through the Pass after the quest is done.

You will not be able to enter Iban's Temple and enter the Elven lands until you have spoken to King Lathas at the start of Regicide. For using the Pass, it is recommended to have a high agility level. Thieving level 50 is another advantage.

These items are needed: a rope (it is a good idea to bring a few spares if your agility is low), a spade, a bow, and a few arrows (any will work and must not be poisoned), and some good food. (It is also a good idea to have extra food for when you exit the Underground Pass, so if you fall into any traps, you can heal yourself.)


 * 1) Enter the pass through the cave entrance at West Ardougne. Note: there is a glitch where sometimes players enter the dungeon almost in the swamp.
 * 2) Then, talk to Koftik, and he will give you damp cloth. Use them on an arrow to change it to a fire arrow, use this arrow on the fire, and go to the little chamber north. (Note: It is possible to miss, so taking more arrows may be a good idea).
 * 3) From here, you can fire the arrow at the guide rope, and you will cross the bridge.
 * Now, go to the little chamber to the north and take a plank.
 * 1) It is possible to fail this part and lose your rope, so taking two ropes is a good precaution. Continue going south, then east, and use a rope on an old spike on the ground next to one of the gaps. It is advised to keep both hands empty and unequip your shield and weapon slots. (Note: It is possible to fail the obstacle and fall. In this case, you'll have to navigate a rock maze to get out. You will end up at the beginning of the Pass, and you'll have to start at step 2 again.
 * 2) Continue following the path through two rockslide obstacles. You will come to a grid of spike traps. For each person the path to cross these is different, so it is suggested that once you find your path, you write it down somewhere. (Of course, you should already have figured out which path is safe for you while doing the Underground Pass quest.)
 * 3) Once past the spike traps, pull the lever and the portcullis will rise.
 * 4) Continue going west, and as you run past the wall traps, you might take some damage. If you have a good thieving level you can try to disable them by searching the 7 odd markings on the wall. Be careful here, as you may take multiple triple-digit damages per trap if you try to run past without disabling them!
 * 5) If you are hurt, it is advisable to turn on Rapid Heal and/or rest to avoid wasting food. You may refill your prayer points from the nearby Chaos altar.
 * 6) Once rested, climb down the well and head west towards the cages. Enter the south-east cage and use your spade on the heap of mud. It will teleport you to the back of the cage. Follow the path and click on 'Cross Ledge' (if you fail, you get back to the cell area).
 * 7) In the next area you have a couple choices. You may either picklock the door by following the north path (if you have 50 thieving (once past the door, make sure you don't step on the bubbles, or you will have to navigate between rocks, and back to the beginning of the pass.) Or you may cross the bridges (the higher your agility level, the less your chance of failing it). However, going through the doors is recommended.
 * 8) Whichever path you took, follow the path to the south. Go through the Obstacle pipe. Go past the unicorn cage and Pass through a tunnel on the north side of the cave.
 * 9) Follow the cave until you pass the zombies and see paladins. Use the earlier found plank on either one of the "flat rock" traps to get past.
 * 10) Continue forward, and you will be standing in front of a door. Once entered, a set of bridges will be in front of you. Using the map below is recommended to reach the Well of Voyage. You will need to cross the bridges to reach Iban's temple in the middle of this large area. (If you fail to cross a bridge, you will fall to the level below and be dealt a considerable amount of damage. It is possible to climb back up to the area using some stairs at the south or northwest of the room.
 * 11) In Iban's temple, you can talk to Koftik and he will give you a stew and two pieces of bread to heal you (only once). Enter the Well of Voyage (where Iban's chamber/room is), follow a short passageway, and you can enter the Elven lands! An altar, and summoning obelisk are just west of the well to recharge prayer and summoning.
