Skiwkw's Gauntlet is the first expert dungeon opened on the server. It is a boss rush where the player must defeat a certain # of boss fights before progressing from floor to floor. As the floors progress the boss fights get more difficult.
Unlike other expert dungeons you can in fact bail from the gauntlet. Between floors you are given a chance to exit the dungeon - if you are unsure about your ability to continue it's recommended that you do bail.

Trivia
- The premise of the dungeon is that you want to "prove your worth to marry Skiwkw, however, at the end of the dungeon it's revealed that she is married to the Mystery Merchant.
- Skiwkw deals the highest DPS out of any dungeon boss.
- During the first month of release User:Wretched Brat & User:SiOtter worked overtime to stop the dungeon from lowering the servers tick rate to single digits. This was done by completely reprogramming the final bosses attacks.
- The Mystery Merchant was a large part of the marketing around this dungeon - and ended up becoming important to the server lore because of it.
- Skiwkw was the first dungeon boss to give optional dialog to the player after the dungeon completed, paving the way for cutscenes in the future.
