   Note: Never take off the Pendant of lucien when you are in the dungeon, Make sure your weight is below 0 kg, otherwise you will have to visit the bank in between steps. Those without 43 Prayer may also need to bank on several occasions to stock up on food.

4. Enter room with the skeletons to the north, and head to the broken bridge on the western side of this room. Before crossing the bridge, make sure your weight is below zero! If it is above zero, you will fall in the lava, taking up to 20 damage. After you walked across the broken bridge, enter the room and pick up the Lever.
   
   Note: If you do fail, go up the ladder to Hemenster. Head to a bank and deposit the necessary amount of items, then walk back to the temple and redo this step.

6. Go through the southern gate, and follow the path until you reach a number of chests, hidden away in alcoves. Search every chest for Ice arrows. Keep searching the chests until you have around 20-25 arrows. It is advised turn off "Auto Retaliate" and to turn on "Protect from Melee" or eat food when needed.

7. When you have enough Ice arrows (20-25), head back to the bank. Withdraw your 20 Limpwurt roots (unnoted), Prayer potions, Food, Ranged armor and a Bow. When you're ready, go back into the temple and to the room with the skeletons. This time, head straight north into a room with a lever and trapdoor. Search the lever for traps to disarm it. Then, you may pull the lever.
   
   Note: If you pull the lever without disarming the traps, the trap door will open and you will fall onto spikes taking up to 20 damage.

8. Leave the room and head west until you reach a door. Open it and go across the room to the other door. As you try to open the second door, the Fire Warrior of Lesarkus will appear denying you the right to pass. He will start attacking you with fire spells. Turn on Protect from magic and range him with the Ice Arrows.
   
   Note: If you do not kill him fast enough, he will cease the battle telling you to come back. When this happens, simply try to open the door again.

11. Push the wall to enter the room with the Guardians of Armadyl. Head into the northwestern corner to find the Staff of Armadyl lying on a table. Now, you have to choose whether you side with the Guardians of Armadyl or with Lucien.
    
    

Side With The Guardians:

1. Take off the Pendant of Lucien and talk to one of the Guardians of Armadyl. Tell them that you seek the staff and that you are working for a man named Lucien. They will be quite disappointed to hear that and tell you that you need to be cleansed. Reply with "You are right, it is time for my yearly bath", and they will bless you with holy water. They will also give you an Armadyl pendant and ask you to kill him.

Boots of Lightness:

The Boots of lightness reduce your weight by -4.5 kg weight. Therefore, they are recommended for activities which require a lot of running as you will use up less running energy.
