Miners Settlement: How to Pass the Mitar Dwarf Cave Maze

To pass the dwarven cave maze in Mitar, you must take a specific doorway in four consecutive chambers. Choosing an incorrect opening triggers a silent reset trap that sends your character back to the entrance or loops you into an earlier room.

Dwarf Cave Maze Step-by-Step Route

Follow this exact sequence from the entrance to reach the inner sanctum:

1. Chamber 1: Enter the cave mouth and walk through the primary right-hand pathway.
2. Chamber 2: Ignore the left-hand crevice, which resets the maze, and proceed through the center-right passage.
3. Chamber 3: Avoid background decorative arches and take the upper doorway leading deeper into the cavern.
4. Chamber 4: Ignore the side corridors between the dwarf statues and pass through the main archway along the back wall.
5. Inner Sanctum: Enter the final room to interact with the dwarven NPC and loot the regional reward chest.

Maze Reset Mechanics

The Mitar dwarf cave does not use physical barricades to block wrong turns. Instead, all archways remain walkable. When you choose the wrong path:

• Your character is silently redirected to the entry chamber or a duplicate prior room.
• All progress through the four-room chain is lost.
• Because the chambers share matching visual assets—such as stone pillars, braziers, and dwarf statues—a reset is often unnoticeable until you spot previously cleared enemy spawns or empty pedestals.

Navigation Tips and Common Pitfalls

• Click past the threshold: Due to the isometric camera view and tight door hitboxes, clicking too close to an archway frame can cause your character to pathfind into an adjacent entrance. Click well inside the intended hallway.
• Do not backtrack: Walking back through the entrance you just arrived from registers as a room transition and resets your progress.
• Avoid pausing mid-run: Opening menus or pausing can cause you to lose track of your entry direction. Finish the four-room sequence before checking inventory or gear.

Completing the maze leads directly to the inner sanctum, where you can claim high-tier ores, crafting materials, and gold from the dwarven chest, as well as speak with the local dwarven NPC to advance the Mitar questline.
