The journey to Vyst begins with a group of winding tunnels and pathways en route to the mantle of Alyria's storied volcano. Beginning from the top of Mount Vesuvius you must go 9d s 6d, which will bring you An Ashy Intersection. At this point you begin the process of amassing the keys required to seek entrance to Vyst. Speed-paths have not been provided for this upper section as there is no assurance of avoiding the numerous aggressive NPCs along these paths.

From An Ashy Intersection, follow the path leading in the southwest direction until you reach a closed door, you must go south and as quickly as possible enter altar. You may need to repeat this path if you find yourself teleported back to your original location. Defeat Zizziks to obtain a flat basalt key, then go north.

Next, (from An Ashy Intersection) follow the path to the northwest until you have reached A Sweltering Intersection, then veer on to the path leading south. As you follow this path you will encounter A Fork in the Path, continue to the northwest until you have reached The Mad Gnome's Cave. Give the Gnome 10000 gold (or 'a compressed earth token' if you have one) and your ride will begin immediately to the Mantle of Mount Vesuvius. When you have finished your ride on the Mad Mole, follow the parth north till you hit the intersection, then go all east and search. This will open up a hidden exit east, follow the passage through the first intersection. Go NE from the intersection until you get to the down, go down and search again. Continue through the hidden down door where you will find Wiggles Tenderfoot, after defeating Wiggles Tenderfoot hang on to the guard's ring. Go follow the path back and all west, follow the path northwest until you hit the intersection, then continue along the southwest path where you will find Syrazic.

To your north will be a CPK room which contains 'A fiery, blazing rift opens here, defying the laws of nature...', go north and enter the riftat which time you will find yourself on the path to the underground city of Volcanus.

Vulnerable to: cold, water
* 'sanctuary', cast at level 350.

Unlock the north door then proceed 3N and you will occur a series of locked doors, each door featured after the key which pertains to it, when you have unlocked the final door, you will be asked to provide the final seal of Vyst as a final rite of passage. You are then teleported to an exit less CPK room where you are given the opportunity to spell up and heal yourself from previous embattlement. When you are fully prepared, each member (beginning with the tanking member of course) may enter the rift and you may try your luck at the Vyst. This room IS CPK and you WILL NOT be able to flee. When he has been slain, sit and wait for repop (with hunter wards on) or recall out. Keep in mind that his corpse explodes so ask everyone to keep autoloot ON near the end.

Vyst can be spelled up with most debuffs, he will attempt to dispel himself every so often, so keep debuffs applied. Should Vyst TK wave and unform your group, you will need to calm and reform quickly, taking care not to calm while Vyst is casting already. Having a psionic cancel conjuration school magic during calming will prevent Vyst from bolting the tank, as Vyst gets close to death you may wish to take down the cancel, calm and have the psionic cancel illusion school to prevent Vyst from casting momentary darkness. Tank should be kept above 2k hp to prevent deaths from bolt spells.

Note: "A gem of Life" is used to obtain Mark of Balance.
