Note: In addition to Bellig Moutain, you can use a series of portals atop the mesas to explore the different mountains of the Alphus Range: Gemm, Dalt, Syliph. One portal will even lead you to the North Desert Edge! You may also encounter a few vendors in your travels.

When introduced, this quest was perfect for a character who had just outgrown the starter towns. During A Perfect Paradox, however, the quest was updated, and the dungeon became more difficult. The final level 11 Zombie has been replaced with a level 61 Revenant.

To reach Bellig from Zaikhal, drop down into the valley from the lifestone at 15.8N, 2.1E and head SE. The Bellig Tower Base portal is located at 17.8N, 16.0E.

An easier route to the dungeon might be from Glendon Wood. Travel west along the road until you are almost due north of the dungeon, then run south.

Bellig Tower Base - 17.8N, 16.0E
--Map: Bellig Tower Base
--Shortcut: Take the Al-Jalima portal in Arwic at 33.6N, 57.2E, then head to the Unified Hearts Villas Settlement Portal at 5.7N, 4.3E

--Creatures: Silt Lurker, Dune Reaver, Jungle Reaver, Copper Golem, Iron Golem, Granite Golem, Risen Knight, Revenant

When you go through the portal, you'll be greeted by several Silt Lurkers. You'll have four routes to choose from. Two passages lead to portals back outside; one is a dead end, and the last splits but rejoins at a set of stairs heading up. Take the stairs. At the top, go left, heading east. At the next intersection go straight heading South. Hug the left wall and go past the glowing green area and make a left. There's an immediate split; take the left again. Go up a ramp and at the next split, take another left. You'll go around a corner, up another ramp, and will be at another split. Take, yes, another left.

Continue to hug the left wall and go down a ramp. Go down another ramp and make left at the split. When you get to your first down ramp, don't go down. Instead, circle around to the right past the ramp entrance and hug the left wall. From here on out, it's simple. Keep staying left at all times and go up up up. You'll cross over a cat-walk type of bridge area with creatures below. On the other side, the dungeon changes to rougher stone. You'll first head up a series of ramps, then sets of stairs. You'll see a room with some Golems, then a room with a fountain, but keep going! The Revenant room is not much farther.

You'll find the Revenant in a room strewn with books on the floor. The Hammer is found on his corpse. The Undead spawns at approximately 13 minute intervals and there's no quest timer, so you can get more than one. The Hammer of Lightning may be both dropped or given away.

Note: The Revenant room also contains a bookcase where you can retrieve 11 volumes of Dereth History!
