Map Pieces and Huh?

Okay I have a complete map, but unsure of what to do with it. I've read in some places you have to beat the game before using the map, in others you don't have to do so.

I'm rather confused about this, because I think this would be fun (though are the dungeons difficult?) for this weekend, making a time of it.

Is this the Top Left, Top Right, etc map?

There's a dwarf in Umbral Grotto that will take the map pieces. It's for a fun dungeon (no great reward), and all that it requires is that you have the map pieces.

Cool! And yep it is, I somehow managed to get all of them

(Coming from the girl who only usually gets root drops, I'm amazed )

looks like I'm gonna be like D&D and do a dungeon crawl this weekend.

Thanks Nunix

It unlocks the snowman dungeon, best dungeon, maybe the best thing in GWEN IMO

Any tips for going in?

I have a Ranger/Ele though I can switch out professions with a pretty good ease, I'm all ears and looking for any input

Thanks for the info you guys so far.

three ele fire heroes, both ele henchman and two monk henchman. flag them ahead and let them mow down the snowmen.

lol, I usually take 2 minion master heros in with me, love watching the minions mow the snowmen down!

I'm yet to try it in HM, since I have no need for Delver points, but you should try the above strategy of as much fire dmg as possible.

HM will offer better rewards for not much of an increase in difficulty (they're snowmen lol!!)

I've not yet beaten the game - we've slowly been taking our time, enjoying it for what it's worth (plus jumping back and forth with AB and NF[Still not beaten that either hah!] and giving my hand at prophecies [just got it] (... I just realized I have a LOT to do o.o)

But that sounds like an excellent idea, I just need to level up my last ele and I'll be good to go

Edit: And I have no MM heroes yet

This is what I get for not finishing when I start something...

Splinter barrage is lots of fun in there, exploding snowmen everywhere

I'm a R/P but changed to R/Rt just for the dungeon, Favourable Winds + Splinter Weapon + Barrage = OMFG OWNAGE!

Nice to bring an MM hero as well, makes the dungeon faster if your farming it, and there's PLENTY of corpses xD

If you do the Asuran PQ you get Livia from doing the Finding Gadd quests, easy to make her an MM, you said you AB? you can easily get the skills for Livia to make her an MM.

Erm... Splinter Barrage?

I feel..suddenly so slow

Heh SF/MS/FS/earthquake can all be fun in there..:> Melted and blasted bits of ice everywhere..:> Only time it's a bit troublesome is in the areas with the ice jets.

D'oh!

Nevermind


(Double posting ftw!)

Realized what it was, and before I went to the North I was a R/RT so that won't be a problem, even think I have it as one ofmy skills

Thanks for the info everyone.

I love this dungeon - it's a total walk-in-the-park, even in hard mode. Just be aware the rewards are on a par with the difficulty.

The end chest drops 4 items in HM - wintersday stuff like Snowman Summoners, Rainbow Candy Canes, Egg Nog and the like. Useful items to an extent, but nothing valuable. Snowman summoners are almost guaranteed :/
