Survive Grimskull's Dungeon... AGAIN

Welcome to the Gaol of Eternal Torment and Misery

*GULP* According to the brochure in his gift shop, Grimskull is *ahem* "The master of the world's most evil, vile, death trap filled dungeons. His first "adventure" for you in DoomVault was barely survivable. And now, his high-level dungeon, the GAOL OF ETERNAL TORMENT AND MISERY! is OPEN! Plus, new rewards for all heroes in Doomvault, new Featured Rare sets, and more!

Dungeon Details of DOOM

The Gaol of Eternal Torment of Misery is not for the faint of heart. In order to enter it, you'll need to have met the following requirements:

• Must have completed /doomvaultb
• Be at least level 80
• Have the Level 60 Smite enhancement from the /forge map in your inventory (Buy & Hold)
• Have the Scythe of Azalith from /infernalarena in your possession

Finish the story quests to unlock four repeatable quests; complete them to earn Grimskull Trolling Rep:

• Gaol Rerun: 500 rep
• Legend only Gaol Rerun: 1,000 rep
• Daily Gaol Rerun: 1,000 rep
• Weekly, super secret challenge boss fight (level 100): 5,000 rep and an exclusive weapon

If you aren't familiar with dungeons, you can read about them here. However, there are some key differences with Grimskull's newest dungeon:

• This is a ONE PLAYER dungeon, so you will have to escape it yourself!
• This is a high level, high difficulty dungeon that's comparable to the final fights of the /infernalarena map.
• The dungeon will be filled with Grimskull's shenanigans, though this time they're more so focused on monster mechanics, rather than the trap filled rooms found in his Doom Vault.

New Dungeon Rewards

There'll be rewards all right. When you complete the dungeon, you'll earn Grimskull Trolling rep (yep, you can finally get it) which can be used to obtain some wicked gear.
