The Old Conclave Vault is a zone that is revealed by reading a note dropped by [[Director Hompalan]] in the [[Ruined Halfling Complex]]. Note that he will only appear if the Old Conclave Vault was chosen to spawn this game. In each game, only one out of [[Dogroth Caldera]], the [[Sludgenest]], the Old Conclave Vault, and (if [[Forbidden Cults]] is enabled) the [[Scourged Pits]] will appear. This is chosen randomly, unless you are a [[Shalore]] and have not yet [[Unlockables|unlocked]] [[Ogre]]s, in which case this zone will always be chosen.

Zone Information

The Old Conclave Vault is a zone that is revealed by reading a note dropped by Director Hompalan in the Ruined Halfling Complex.

Director Hompalan will only appear if the Old Conclave Vault was randomly selected to spawn in this game, from a choice of 4 locations. The other three possible spawns are the Dogroth Caldera, the Sludgenest, and (if Forbidden Cults is enabled) the Scourged Pits.

If the player is a Shalore and has not yet unlocked Ogres, then the Old Conclave Vault will always be chosen for the game.

A few steps after entering this zone, you will be forced into a dialogue with the Ogres, and the only answer is fighting. In the levels below, the player will find many old vats. Standing near these vats will trigger various Ogre-themed monsters to break out of them and fight you. Depending on the specific room type, there is some variation to how the monsters will be triggered. There are also some number of traps on the floors.

Healer Astelrid can be found on the last level, and she can hit pretty hard with her unique greatmaul. This weapon is pretty good for Ogres, but less so for everyone else. Collecting the lore she drops will unlock Ogres as a future starting race.
