The Crucible

The Crucible (Hell's Furnace) is the second Hero Dungeon that resides on Silver Land.

The Chase suddenly whelm up in an unidentified realm. From the looks of it, the creatures are soulless much like in the Sanctum of Destruction. An evil force, Hellstrom, draws the Chase deeper into the realm for he sees them as worthy minions.
When Hellstrom is met, Dio senses much danger emanating from the demon in front of him. Ronan asks if he knows anything about the firey beast, but the true motives of Hellstrom are unknown.

Specific Rules

Players can run the Hero Dungeon as many times as they wish (so long as they fail) but can only complete it twice. The clock resets at 12:00 AM PST.
The difficulty of the dungeon is scaled by the entire party's statistics; the more Attack/Defense/Vitality everyone has, the stronger the monsters are.
Players are required to be a minimal level of 30 in order to enter.
Hero's Bullion Fragment can be obtained if the dungeon is not cleared (this does not mean if the player leaves, however). They can be used to gain Hero's Bullion.
Hero's Bullion can be obtained if the dungeon is cleared or by combining the fragments. They can be used to purchase Hero Items.

Battle

The game starts off with the group fighting an assortment of Infernal Spearmen, Infernal Acolytes, and Infernal Magmoks.

Afterward, the group will be immediately transported to a random room, containing a random assortment of monsters. Then the process repeats, only this time, several Infernal Guards may appear.

Next, the Infernal Death Worm will be battled, accompanied by a Infernal Acolyte and Infernal Magmok.

Prior to the defeat of the Mini-Boss and his pals, the group must run through a chasm with flames rising from the ground.

Lastly, Hellstrom, the mastermind of this dungeon, is fought.
