Warlord’s Ruin Walkthrough

Pre-Dungeon Exploration

The dungeon begins with a traversal section featuring a jumping puzzle. Follow the red flags along the mountainside to avoid backtracking. Be wary of false chests, which spawn enemies instead of loot. Look for a faint blue glow around legitimate chests.

1st Encounter: Rathil, the First Broken Knight of Fikrul

Mechanics:

  • From Whence You Came Perk: Activate this in your Seasonal Artifact to increase damage against Taken and Scorn.
  • Boss Strategy: Focus on clearing adds and utilizing precision weapons for damage phases.

2nd Encounter: Locus of Wailing Grief

Mechanics:

  • Collect Standard Essences by defeating specific enemies and depositing them in the correct locations.
  • Activate buffs and prioritize heavy DPS weapons like Sniper Rifles or Linear Fusion Rifles for optimal damage output.

Final Encounter: Hefn’s Vengeance, Blighted Chimera

Mechanics:

  • Destroy glowing orbs around the arena to expose Hefn’s damage phase.
  • Be prepared for heavy add spawns and mechanics requiring precise team coordination.
  • Use Solar builds and crowd control abilities to manage the chaos effectively.

Secret Chest Locations

  • First Secret Chest:
    • Between the second and third encounters, find a room with several chests. Only one will contain dungeon loot; look for a faint blue glow to identify the correct chest.
  • Second Secret Chest:
    • In the open area outside, stick to the right side of the mountain to locate another secret chest.
