The Crystal Caverns are the ancient home of the Coldain, named Froststone, long since overrun by giants and now Orcs and other creatures used to haunt by hunters of EverQuest Platinum. There are five areas within the tunnels, each controlled by the Ry’Gorr Orcs, the Geonids, the Stalag terrors, the crystal spiders, or the Coldain dwarves. The Orcs control the upper parts of the tunnels, the dwarves the small remnants of their city, the terrors some abandoned halls, the spiders also some abandoned halls, and the Geonids a set of tunnels they created for themselves.
Danger Zones for Hunters of EverQuest Platinum
There is a confusing pit area near the entrance which allows access to all other parts of the zone, but is also very confusing and can lead you astray. Although you can fall or levitate down through the pit and skip much of the upper dungeon, it is advisable to do this while invisible or you will have quite the greeting party waiting for you at the bottom. There are also a large number of Orcs who walk all through this area, so if you are camped along the trail expect to be jumped frequently.
The Coldain will fight all the creatures in the zone, so you can use the Coldain as “guards” if you wish. The bad part about this is that they count the elemental illusions of enchanters as an enemy as well, and will attack them.
The Stalag Terrors are especially dangerous to hunt. They create very lethal trains and move very quickly, so pulling them is a serious undertaking. They are also, although roughly the same level as the spiders, much tougher and hit much harder.
Hunting Queen Dracnia is probably the most dangerous venture in the dungeon. There is a small area near where she spawns that most groups set up in, and a group in the high 30’s can do well there fighting rapidly spawning blues. The big problem hunting in this area is the trains that are created. These have been noticed to be bad when the Queen herself spawns, where one creature will flee and all the others from outside will rush the room.
