Dungeons are an upgradable section of Caed Nua in Pillars of Eternity.
Description[ | ]
The Dungeons of Caed Nua contain nine cells. Upgrading the dungeons will allow you to take prisoners during your travels.
Background[ | ]
These dark, foreboding cells were once the domain of prisoners and their wardens. Now they're mostly overrun by spiders, but can be restored to full functionality by a new master.
Points of interest[ | ]
- The dungeons are reached by stairs in a room in the north corner of the main level. At the south-west corner is another set of stairs that leads to the Endless Paths of Od Nua. The area is lousy with spiders of a very broad variety.
- You can imprison people you capture on your travels here, although they may be able to successfully escape if the security in Caed Nua is too low.
Behind the scenes[ | ]
- This area contains developer commentary.
“
Like many of the stronghold maps, the design of this area had to accommodate multiple sets of content. In this scene the players' introduction to the area is a spider-infested dungeon where a great deal of combat and stealth can occur. Later on, once the player unlocks the stronghold, the area serves as a dungeon where they can imprison various characters through their travels in which in and of itself offers its own reactivity for this particular scene.
