The Driftwood Arena is an underground fighting ring located beneath the Black Bull tavern where players can test their combat prowess. To become the local champion, you must first win a blindfolded match against a squad of combatants and then defeat the reigning champion, Murga. Winning both battles earns you experience, unique gear, and the title of Champion of Driftwood.

Shops and people

  • Arrashne: Sells Scoundrel skill books and thief equipment inside the arena lounge.

Tips

  • In the first challenge, the Blind status severely restricts attack range; using summons, teleportation skills, and surface spells helps bypass the aiming penalty.
  • After winning the arena, you can visit the Driftwood undertaker to get an audience with the arena's overseers and progress related questlines.
  • Position high-ground ranged characters on the wooden scaffoldings before triggering dialogue to start the fight.
