  1. 1

    Coastal Entrance

    Sail to the northern coast of Ard Skellige to find the cove entrance of the Ancient Crypt elven ruins. Meet Philippa Eilhart waiting at the cavern opening, and watch as she uses her magic to unseal the blocked doorway.

    Attention: Note that no merchants or crafting services exist inside this cave, so prepare before heading in.

  2. 2

    Flooded Cavern

    Step into the initial flooded cavern with Philippa and eliminate the Drowners and Siren attacking in the water. Search the flooded passageways here to loot chests containing alchemy and crafting diagrams.

  3. 3

    Rebuilt Stairway & Detour

    Follow Philippa as she uses magic to levitate the shattered stone blocks and rebuild the ruined staircase. Before or after mounting the steps, you can take an optional side path leading toward a floor spike trap chamber. Look for chests in these side paths and side chambers to retrieve diagrams and the silver sword Naevde Seidhe.

  4. 4

    Spike Trap Chamber & Arachas Lair

    Enter the floor spike trap room while keeping your Witcher Senses active to spot the red-glowing trigger plates. Collect items from the corpse impaled on the spikes guarding the hidden treasure, then press forward into the lair to eliminate the Venomous Arachas and loot its surrounding chests.

    Combat clé: Arachas Cavern Encounter

    Attention: Stepping onto glowing floor plates will trigger deadly floor spikes.

  5. 5

    Haunted Corridors & Guardian Golem

    Regroup with Philippa deeper inside the crypt corridors, where specters and ghosts assault your party. Advance through the passages until you confront and defeat the elven guardian Golem barring the path ahead. Search side paths and alcoves near here to discover additional diagram chests and Naevde Seidhe.

    Combat clé: Guardian Golem Battle
  6. 6

    The Elven Door

    Proceed alongside Philippa to reach the ancient elven door adorned with a depiction of the guardian Fiallan. Watch Philippa offer a blood sacrifice to unlock and open this sealed portal into the inner sanctum.

  7. 7

    Sunstone Chamber Puzzle

    Rotate and align the three elven mirrors to reflect light properly upon the altar pedestal in the center of the hall. Once the puzzle is resolved, Philippa takes the Sunstone and teleports away, leaving you to depart through an elevated adjacent tunnel.
