Preparation

Before entering Bethesda Susa the player should be prepared for:

• High-damage attacks from cragmensch.
• An invisible enemy, and new, higher-damage floor trap enemies (the lurking beths.)
• Steadily decreasing temperatures as the player descends, lowering Quickness. (The temperature drops by 9 degrees for every floor below ground.)
  • Possible ways of mitigating this are through gear or mutations that grant cold resistance, or by counteracting with increased quickness.
  • The player may freeze solid on the penultimate level without some cold resistance.
• A Mechanimist holy site. If the player has sufficient reputation with the Mechanimists, for example by donating at the sacred well, this can be a peaceful encounter.
