__NOTOC__
<!-- Using NOTOC to keep the top of the article clean as long as the page is not too long... -->{{DUNGEON infobox| name = Kur Tower| connects = [[File:Kur Tower Mountains]], [[Necromancer's Courtyard]]| arealevel= 50| pmapdesc= Map by BetaNotus (entrance5/19).jpg|thumb|right|300px|A typical hallway in }}[[Kur Tower, except without all the zombies and skeletons.]](also refered as the '''Kur Tower'Necromancer Lair'' in patch notes) is a high level dungeon found in the freezing Kur Mountains. The dungeon is full of undead. Fire damage is quite effective, while Cold, Poison and Trauma damage are usually ineffective. Loot wise, unlike lower level dungeons where good items seem to drop mainly from named creatures (eg. Agalpa in [[Goblin Dungeon]]), higher tier weapons and armor is more frequently found from random foes.
The respawn rate is a little high, but it's at least possible to make some headway from the entrance unlike [[Boarded up Basement]].

====Coffin Rooms (top level)====
After the first bend at the end of the entrance hallway will be two small rooms down a flight of stairs, to your left. Note that Ice Slicks in these side rooms will aggro without line of sight as you approach. If you have trouble with them you may have to pull them back to the entrance hallway.
The stairs lead down small rooms with coffins and skeletons (the harmless kind). The skeletons can be looted for skulls, used in [[Phrenology]], Bone Meal, Broken Necklaces, etc.but also the occasional Ancient Gold Coin. {{Hint|Those earn a lot of favor with Ukorga in Kur Mountains.}}
Necromancer's Goblet (quest item) spawns in this room.
====Cells, Glajur's Room (top level)====At the back [[Glajur]] has been left behind by an expedition of the room is goblins. He has a well that appears to lead outside the dungeon keen interest in [[Phrenology]] and will teach it provided you are fluent in Goblinese (to be confirmed40). {{Hint|ItRaise favor with him by gifting all the 's possible to run quickly past enemies to 'Impressive'' skulls found in the back of dungeon, and keep the room where other skulls for the well is and they will eventually stop chasePhrenology recipes.}}
Found If you just want to talk to him, it's possible to run quickly past enemies to the back of the room. Climb up the stairs, and down again in this roomthe water and stand at the far back next to the well. Some enemies may pursue you all the way and hit once or twice, but usually they will turn back (might have to do with the line of sight). With both players running to Glajur, and players who use the cells as a safe spot to pull enemies, it is not unusual to be victim of a "train" (an term from classic EverQuest). That is, the chasing enemies will "aggro" any bystanders. This is allowed by the game mechanics, so don't be angry at the other player(s) and remember it's fairly easy to get back there. In the cells are jars can sometime be looted for ''Maggoty HamsAmbient Magic Sponges'', which are worth a good bit and can stack. ====Shelves====Use the targetting key to search the shelves... an Ancient Gold Coin could be easily missed! ====Well (one-way exit)====Just behind [[Glajur]] is a one-way only exit through a well that takes you back to Kur Mountains. You will be in the freezing water southwest of Kur Mountains, so you may want to reach the shore as quickly as possible.
====Green Pillars (top level)====
Unknown function as of writing.
====Bottom levelBasement Level====Striga Drainers , Shaman, and Shamen [[Keerla]] inhabit the second branched, brick corridors of the basement level.
==NPCs==The Ice Wall and Beyond====After navigating the corridors in the basement, the player will reach a magical wall of ice. In order to disable the wall and pass through, the player must be holding the scroll on which is written an [[Ice Bypass Spell]], obtained from the quest [[Into the Kur Tower]] (note that this is only required one time per character). Heading up the stairs, the player emerges to a seemingly-impossible space featuring a seemingly temperate climate, dilapidated ruins, a massive bell, and a large stone complex that seems to hover in the air. This is the [[Necromancer's Courtyard]].
