This charm can be upgraded.

► Show Spoiler

The Black Road charm can be upgraded by cubing it with 5 great gems (Great Skull, Great Rainbow Stone, Great Topaz, Great Ruby, Great Sapphire).

You will need to do this in order to get to Fauztinville.

These great gems are obtained in the area where you battle Kabraxis.
Kabraxis is sealed inside the Pillar of Skulls at the centre of the Black Road. Once it is destroyed, Kabraxis will be released.

Spread around the dungeon, there are also 5 elemental seals, each of which corresponds with one element: Fire, Cold, Lightning, Magic and Physical. When one is destroyed, it will unseal an Ultra Elemental, along with some normal elementals. Each seal and all elementals are immune to all elements except for their own. On Destruction difficulty, each Ultra Elemental will drop a Great Gem when defeated, which can be transmuted with the The Black Road, dropped by Buyard Cholik, to upgrade it.
Once ugraded you can cube this charm with any rune to obtain a Mine Warp scroll. This scroll is used to open a portal to Fauztinville. This consumes the rune but does not consume your charm. The portal must be opened in Hell to work.

Awesome idea Tbone, I would suggest adding which ones are trophy-able and the respective trophy bonus as well since it can be very frustrating for new players to try and figure this stuff out.

Druids Uberskill for ennead is not Lifeshield. Also would bear mentioning that the Sunstone of Twin Seas can be upgraded with the Scroll of Resistance in A5.

Interesting. That was just a screenshot from the challenges page. I see that it should be Mythal now. I wonder how many others are outdated on that page? I'll take a look and make a note where needed.
