Abandoned Basement
The Abandoned Basement drops from Sorgigas, the Sor Giant's Sor Crystals in the Realm. Within the dungeon there are powerful enemies, so make sure to rush with caution and always clear if you do not feel confident. There are 3 Treasure Rooms--indicated by the boxes on the map--which do not attack but are surrounded by enemies--and only one boss, the Dark Sorcerer.
The Dark Sorcerer
Phases
Phase 1: The boss will rapidly fire a tight shotgun of 3 low-damaging blue shots at the player. If you are on a character on low defense, these could easily mow your HP down. The Boss will also fire a wide shotgun of white armor-piercing bullets that inflict confused on the player. If you get hit by these while dodging the blue shots, it's best to back off until it wears off.
Phase 2: The boss will move erratically, firing low-damaging red projectiles in a ring around him. The boss will also fire wide shotguns of white confuse shots at the player, and also lob grenades at the player.
Phase 3: He will move side to side, shooting white confuse at the player, while spraying the low-damage blue shots all around him. After a few seconds of this phase, the boss will cry "I need more power!" and begin moving towards where he spawned.
Phase 4: Turrets from either side of the room will begin firing across the room. Each shot will deal 120 armor-piercing damage, so avoid these at the risk of your health being quickly whittled down.
Phase 5: The boss will start spawn two minions (that fire shotguns of pink confuse shots), then begin white confuse shots around him, followed by tight shotguns of dark-blue blasts dealing a whopping 200 damage per shot. While doing this, the boss will also spawn blue orbs around the room, that shoot paralyzing shots in a cross-shaped pattern. It's best to stay back until this phase is over, or until the boss cycles back to phase 1.
Tips
Aspect of Baast could help deal with the confusion that the boss applies throughout the fight.
Come with a maxed character, this dungeon is dangerous for low defense/hp characters.
Avoid rushing unless confident--if you feel something could go wrong, it might.
