Services and people

Walkthrough

The area in the order you play it. Tick things off as you go: they tick off in the checklists below too.

1. 1

   Crossing the Bridge to Irina

   When you cross the heavily fortified Bridge of Sacrifice past the Godrick Soldiers and ballista turret, follow the road south to find Irina resting on a rock. Speak with her to receive Irina's Letter and agree to deliver it to her father Edgar at Castle Morne.

   Irina's Letter: Irina, seated on a rock just south of the Bridge of Sacrifice along the main roadHow: Talk to Irina and agree to deliver the letter to her father in Castle MorneMissable because: Irina dies if you advance far enough into Liurnia of the Lakes / spawn Hyetta without initiating her dialogue Don't missMap: Weeping Peninsula: South of Castle Morne Rampart, directly alongside the main road leading south towards Castle MorneHow: Pick up from the base of the stone map stele

   Tip: You can bypass the fortified bridge entirely by dropping down along the cliffside ruins southwest of the Forlorn Hound Evergaol in south Limgrave.

   Watch out: Attacking or killing Irina here permanently prevents Hyetta from appearing later in the game.

2. 2

   Eastern Plateau and Demi-Human Forest

   Head east up the plateau to Oridys's Rise, solve the puzzle to seek three wise beasts, and climb to the top to claim your Memory Stone. Afterward, venture into the Demi-Human Forest Ruins to eliminate the swarms and defeat Demi-Human Queen Gilika for the Demi-Human Queen's Staff and Crystal Burst sorcery.

   Memory Stone: Oridys’s Rise, eastern plateauHow: Solve the 'seek three wise beasts' puzzle to access the top

   Tip: Clear out the smaller Demi-Humans first so you can exploit Gilika's slow movement and break her poise uninterrupted.

3. 3

   Central Plateau and the Minor Erdtree

   Ascend the central bluffs to Ailing Village to loot The Flame of Frenzy from a ruined house, then head directly south to Callu Baptismal Church to pick up a Sacred Tear. Push onto the high central ridge overlooking the region to challenge the Erdtree Avatar guarding the Minor Erdtree.

   Key fight: Erdtree Avatar (Weeping Peninsula)
   Sacred Tear: Callu Baptismal Church, atop the hill in the central-northern part of the peninsulaHow: Pick up from the base of the statue of MarikaThe Flame of Frenzy: from Ailing Village entrance to the ruined houseHow: loot the item resting inside the ruined house New

   Tip: The Erdtree Avatar is extremely weak to fire, and sprinting laterally will safely avoid its homing holy projectiles.

4. 4

   Northern Bluffs and Western Plains

   Ride north to the cliff edge to collect the Sacred Tear at the Church of Pilgrimage, then cut across to the western side of the peninsula to the Fourth Church of Marika for another Sacred Tear. Clear the subterranean crypt of Tombsward Ruins to grab the Winged Scythe behind an illusory wall, unlock the Weeping Evergaol using one Stonesword Key to defeat the Ancient Hero of Zamor for Radagon's Scarseal, and track down the walking Wandering Mausoleum pacing the western watery field.

   Sacred Tear: Church of Pilgrimage, at the northernmost cliff edge of the peninsulaHow: Pick up from the base of the statue of MarikaSacred Tear: Fourth Church of Marika, on the western plateau of the peninsulaHow: Pick up from the base of the statue of MarikaWinged Scythe: from Tombsward Ruins surface to the underground cryptHow: hit the illusory wall behind the staircase guarded by rats and open the chest NewRadagon’s Scarseal: from Weeping Evergaol stone seal to the arena floorHow: unlock the imp statue using 1 Stonesword Key and defeat the Ancient Hero of Zamor NewLhutel the Headless Spirit Ash: from Tombsward Catacombs entrance to the boss arenaHow: defeat the Cemetery Shade New

   Tip: Use strike weapons or Crystal Darts on the Erdtree Burial Watchdog in nearby catacombs to trigger friendly-fire confusion, and roll forward through the Ancient Hero of Zamor's frost breaths.

5. 5

   Southwestern Coast and Tower of Return

   Ride down to the Isolated Merchant’s Shack on the western coast to purchase a Lantern and the Zweihander, then investigate the underground cellar of Witchbane Ruins where Sorceress Sellen's real body is bound. Continue south along the coast to the elevated Tower of Return and climb to the summit to find a chest.

   Trap chest in the Tower of Return: Climbing the guard tower in the southwest and opening the chest ensnares you in a teleportation trap, sending you directly to the Divine Bridge in Leyndell, Royal Capital.Sorceress Sellen's True Body: from Witchbane Ruins surface down into the underground cellar New

   Tip: Opening the chest at the top of the Tower of Return ensnares you in a teleportation trap that transports you straight to the Divine Bridge in Leyndell, Royal Capital.

6. 6

   The Ramparts of Castle Morne

   Rest at the Castle Morne Rampart Grace where you can loot a Golden Seed beside a glowing sapling and leap up the nearby Spiritspring to obtain the Great Turtle Shell Shield from a watchtower. Speak with the Nomadic Merchant beside the rampart, then head down the southern road past the giant archer golem and the Map Stele to enter Castle Morne, looting the Claymore from a storehouse chest and climbing to an isolated tower to give Irina's Letter to Castellan Edgar.

   Flask Upgrade (Golden Seed): Just southwest of the Castle Morne Rampart Site of Grace, near the roadHow: Pick up from the base of the glowing phantom Golden Seed treeGreat Turtle Shell Shield: from Castle Morne Rampart Site of Grace to the top of the adjacent watchtowerHow: launch yourself upward using the nearby Spiritspring jump NewClaymore: from Castle Morne ramparts to the interior storehouseHow: open the chest inside the storehouse NewNight-Only Boss Spawns: along the open roads and fields of the Weeping Peninsula New

   Tip: Note that Night's Cavalry and the Deathbird only spawn along the roads of the peninsula at night.

   Watch out: Do not kill Edgar on the tower; acquiring his +8 Banished Knight's Halberd early prematurely spikes your multiplayer matchmaking bracket and disrupts his questline.

7. 7

   Reclaiming Castle Morne

   Drop down to the beach behind Castle Morne and pass through the mist to defeat Leonine Misbegotten, which rewards you with the Grafted Blade Greatsword and 3,800 Runes. Speak to Edgar atop his tower once more, then return to the road past the Bridge of Sacrifice where he weeps over Irina's slain body to complete the sequence and ensure he invades later as Edgar the Revenger in Liurnia.

   Key fight: Leonine Misbegotten
   Grafted Blade Greatsword: Castle Morne, on the beach behind the castle after passing through the rampartsHow: Defeat the Leonine Misbegotten boss

   Tip: Summon Castellan Edgar outside the fog gate and utilize heavy jumping attacks or guard counters to easily break Leonine Misbegotten's low poise.

   Watch out: Killing Edgar out of sequence forfeits the natural invasion later in Liurnia that yields a Shabriri Grape for Hyetta's questline.
