* Knocking the Phase Spider Matriarch into one the side holes labelled 'Chasm' will grant the party 250xp. However, knocking her into the centre hole (not labelled 'Chasm') will ''not'' grant [[experience]], but its corpse can be found in the [[Underdark]] (X:140 Y:151) to loot and possibly animate. This does '''not''' work in Tactician/Honour mode. | * Knocking the Phase Spider Matriarch into one the side holes labelled 'Chasm' will grant the party 250xp.

* [[Lump the Enlightened]] and his ogres can prove valuable allies in the battle. They can be recruited just up above in the [[Blighted Village]] through a Charisma check or paying them 500g. This can result in a win-win situation where Lump is killed in the battle or is significantly weakened allowing the opportunity to easily obtain the [[Warped Headband of Intellect]]. | * [[Lump the Enlightened]] and his ogres can prove valuable allies in the battle.
