The Oil Peak is found in The Highlands, and is part of the Orc Chasm Quest.
A primary stat of 85 is suggested. If your main stat isn't high enough, you'll see the following message:
- If you go in here, there will be blood. Oh, yes. There will be blood. And it'll be blood for oil. Are you ready to make that trade?
(It is recommended that you have at least 85 <mainstat> to adventure here.)

Notes
- The monsters you encounter here are solely determined by your total Monster Level increasers.
- The extra ML caused by the rain depth during the Heavy Rains challenge path is not taken into account to determine the monsters you encounter in this zone.
- To finish the quest on this peak, you must reduce oil pressure by defeating the monsters. The pressure starts at 310.66 µB/Hg (microbowies per Mercury).
- Wearing dress pants increases the pressure reduction of each kill by 6.34 µB/Hg.
