I use a Rope and Grappling Hook to cross the chasm at #20 during a scripted interaction. The evil party, however, can make use of it (see just below). The good party has no particular use for any items available from that section.

The one at #15 also has an item from the 'Dyrford Ruins' section of the Random Drop List. Containers at locations marked #15, #16 and #18 will each have a Rope and Grappling Hook in it. Now the party fights its way through the Skaenites in the western rooms of the Ruins, using the usual tactics. I therefore rest up and then grab the Camping Supplies from the crate at #4. They aren't particularly tough, but I'm now getting pretty beat up over the long haul. There will be a few Stone Beetles and an Adra Beetle at #5, and then a couple of Wood Beetles at #3. There will be a few more Skaenites that I kill through the usual tactics. The Orlan Rogue disarms the Gaze of the Adragan trap at #7, and then continues through the door to the north. if you really want to get to the next level as fast as you can), then it may be advisable to leave the keys where you find them. Even so, if you're set on maxing out your xp every chance you get (e.g. I am therefore not hung up on losing xp because I used a key instead of the Mechanics skill. *Note* There's plenty of xp to go around, and it's actually pretty hard for a party not to reach its maximum level. Those same doors can be opened with a good enough Mechanics skill though. The chest at #9 has the Old Dungeon Key, which can be used to open doors marked #12. I manage to win more or less in good health. I have Grieving Mother set up Ectopsychic Echo across a line of foes whenever I can. Given the numbers, I have Hiravias let loose with Returning Storm and then Nature's Mark. I set up a kind of smaller reverse phalanx in the hallway to the south, and have the Orlan Rogue lead them to me. There will be quite a large number of Skaenites at #7. I go west across the north side of the chasm at #20, and use Mechanics to open the door at #12 west of #20. I battle a lot of Skaen Cultists and Fanatics along the east side of the Ruins, using familiar tactics and looting containers at #28, #27 and #26 along the way.

I start off at #29 on the map of the Dyrford Ruins.
