Two thousand years of regret.

The Ancient Pyramid is the final area in Act 2. This area does not have a waypoint and is connected to The Caverns and The City of Sarn.

This area is split into four separate levels with the Vaal Oversoul at the end. The first three levels continue the maze of rooms from the previous area, and since the player is climbing through a pyramid the levels get progressively smaller. The top level is named Pyramid Apex and is a large circular room with the Dark Altar in the center. The boss battle begins when a player with The ApexThe ApexThough its power has been shared, there
