New dungeons and keys

[ponury_indor]

So EE patch #4 added new dungeons. Can somebody answer those questions for me?

1. How many dungeons there are and where are they located? I've only found one behind Charons Bridge on Styx.
2. Do you get keys only from Act boss drops? I've got two from final boss in Act V.
3. If I open door to dungeon will it stay open permamently or do I need another set of keys to open it again if I restart my game?
4. Helos Orbs became more expensive, but are drops better?

Regards

3 in total, but only one can be accessed per difficulty I believe. They are difficulty locked if you like.

I believe you can also get keys from Orbs. Or farm the end Act bosses for them.

Yes, they do.

No idea on your other question.

1. 3 Dungeons. One is located in Greece. Not far from Delphi, behind a waterfall. The second is somewhere in Egypt. The third you found on your own.
2. The keys fall only from Tiphon, Hades and Surt.
3. I can't tell.
4. The drop is the same.

3. Door stay open permamently. If you die in dungeon you can't and recover lost XP points. It seems that you can enter dungeon once per game launch, but you need keys only first time.

To add. Keys fall out of all four Telkines and the Suns.

Can also get them from Orbs as well I believe.

I believe the drop rate of orbs has been increased. But it's just personal experience on a small sample, so this is not for certain.

Is it possible, that the keys for the new dungeons drop very seldom or do I have to start with a complete new Character to have a chance to get them?

You can use old or new characters. The drop rate just isn't very good.

You can transfer them between characters though, so if you have one character that is good at farming, they can farm them for all of your characters. However, if you have keys in your inventory, duplicate keys won't drop, so add them to your stash if you're trying to farm extra sets.

[Estendiel]

Thank you very much for the answer baz.
Then I'm just very unlucky so far

Farm end of Acts bosses for them. Also they can be obtained from the electrum orbs iirc.

Necro, but for those still looking for the blasted things: duplicate keys absolute can (and absolutely will) drop just to piss you off. There is no way I've found to stop that, whether the other set is in transfer, storage, or on the character. If you're looking for extras, great. If you're trying to complete a set to actually get in the bloody dungeon then it's throw stuff at the screen time

/the drop rates on dungeon key bits are absolutely and extremely stupidly low in the first place
