== Overview ==
# You must obtain a [[Skull of High Acolyte]] from the [[Skull of High Acolyte Quest]] before you can obtain the keys to the mines.
# This quest requires someone with [[Lockpick]] to pull two levers.
# One person with [[Lockpick]] can accomplish Part 2. The rest of the fellowship can continue on to Part 3 while keeping the doors open for the lever puller.

== Walkthrough & Notes ==
=== Part 1: Obtaining Keys to the Mines ===
# Find [[Le-Ai Rea]] at 75.9S 57.3E and hand him the {{Itemlink|Skull of High Acolyte}}. He will return a {{Itemlink|Golden Key (Mines of Despair)|Golden Key}} and {{Itemlink|Le-Ai Rea's Key}}.
# Enter the [[Mines of Despair]] at 75.4S, 57.2E.

=== Part 2: Mines of Despair (Levers) ===
# From the drop, head north and unlock the wooden door with the [[Golden Key (Mines of Despair)|Golden Key]].
# If you have a group, have someone hold this door for you, as you'll need to come back through it.
# Go left at the split and jump down into the pit.
# Hug the left wall until you reach a locked door at the bottom of a wide ramp. Unlock it.
# Take a right at the next split, and then your first left.
# At the next split, take a right, and then hug the wall left until you reach an intersection that has a pit to your left and a small square room to your right.
# Open the door to the small square room and use the wall lever to open the first door.
# Back out of the room,.jump down into the pit, and hug the wall left until you reach another small square room with a wall lever. Pull this lever to open the second door.
# Now portal recall to bring you back to the [[Mines of Despair]] drop.
# Head North and take a right at the split. Jump down into the pit, run down the ramp and hug the right wall to join your group.
#* Note: If the first door has closed already, use your [[Golden Key (Mines of Despair)|Golden Key]] to open it again.

=== Part 3: Mines of Despair (Inactive Focusing Stone) ===
# Head north through the first door, then take a right at the split.
# Jump down into the pit, run down the ramp to the north, then hug the wall right until you reach a lever-activated door.
# One the door opens (from the lever runner), one person should hold it while the rest continue.
# Once through the door, take your first right.
# Hug the left wall until you reach another lever-activated door, in a larger room with [[Undead Miner]]s.
# Again, wait here for the lever to be pulled, and when it opens, hold the door.
# Once your party is all together, move down the linear dungeon until you reach the [[Lich Overseer]]. Kill him and loot an {{Itemlink|Focusing Stone (Inactive)|Inactive Focusing Stone}} from his corpse (drops 3).
# {{Optional}} While in this room, you can also loot a [[Empyrean Sun Stone]], which is used in [[Diemos Flagging]] and in making [[Crafting Golems]].
# Now, use [[Le-Ai Rea's Key]] on the door to the west, follow the hall into a larger room, and enter the portal to [[Beyond the Mines of Despair]].

=== Part 3: Beyond the Mines of Despair ===
# From the drop, follow the linear dungeon until you reach a suspended bridge.
# Move to the center of the bridge and jump off to the West side.
# Run around to the North West, then use the ramp down on the East side.
# From here, its linear all the way to the final room, where you'll find a [[Vortex]].
# Use the [[Focusing Stone (Inactive)|Inactive Focusing Stone]] on the Vortex to activate your {{Itemlink|Focusing Stone}}.
