The underground pass has a couple of one-way pipes which doesn't really serve any purpose as is. They did make sense as an easy escape back in the day before home teleports were introduced, but not anymore.
Suggestion is simple: Let us permanently unblock them from the inside to be used as shortcuts after traversing the obstacles the first time so we don't have to memorize the pitfall pattern or turn back because of a forgotten spade later.

The bridge support could also just stay cut tbh. The dungeon is plenty tedious even with these edits.

wouldnt this only have a use during regicide? after that you have access to teleport crystals, and charter ships, both being faster than the ardy side

Recharching Iban's staff (without 250k gp), Regicide x2 and for the unlucky ones needing to leave and return during U-pass quest.

I don’t think it should be available before finishing underground pass at all
And you can recharge ibans staff yourself without paying at any point

Logically it makes sense that the pipes remain open after you open then (which can only be done from one side).
And isnt the well by the knights the only place to recharge the staff for free?

Iirc it’s the well after ibans throne

Wiki says by knights. But either way, until starting mep1 for telecrystals its a very long and tedious trek for no good reason.

You can upgrade ibans staff to hold many more casts for 500k, you will replace the staff before you run out of casts

That all depends on how you use it… 2500 charges really isnt all that hard to spend. Seen Ibans semi-frequently be used at barrows. But thats besides the main point here anyways.

I had to recharge it many times while doing rex
I would've loved if this shortcut was available

I'd be up for it if the pipes were unlocked after underground pass completion
stoic fulcrum
tbh i dont feel like its much of a hassle after the quest since all you need is a plank and an arrow, just a but long
but i dont think it should be available before the quest is done
