Coming from West Silvar
You are warned on entering that there are tough undead here to fight. That much is true. The undead are very tough. The are two ways of effectively fighting them. The first is to complete the quest given to you by the local priest, who wants you to go find some hermit in the Honeycomb. That's the recommended way. The way I did it my first time was I used acid spray. This spell alone affects the undead, but you can completely avoid seeking out Sleater through this method.

Coming from the South
Cache: Icy geode x 2
Notable items: Inertial Shield, Pustulent Vambraces

Initially this area is just a quick pathway on your way to Mertis. Once you're exploring the Honeycomb, this area has the least combative way to reach Sleater. The cerebrous worm is located in the SW part of the main level of this area. Go ahead and kill it, though you may not like to do so. It drops some pustulent vambraces on death. Staircases 8 and 'b' lead to some undead, and a "sentient bones" who drops an inertial shield on death. Staircase 'a' has a few slimes.
