Dyrford Ruins

Plenty of Skaen Temple Fanatics in the area. All of them will wear Skaen Initiates' Hoods. Some of them are Barbarians who pack Morningstars and Scale Armors. Others are Fighters who pack Swords, Medium Shields and Mail Armor. Some are Priests who use Rods while wearing Skaen Cultist Robes. There are also Skaen Temple Sentries who are Rogues that come equipped with Stilettoes and Leather Armor. There will also be the odd Mind Weaver that wears Padded Armors and packs a Pistol.

Places with electrical traps will be marked with a 'T'.

  21. Skuldr KingHere is the Blood Pool. If you have a Cruel disposition of at least one, the pool will allow you to sacrifice one of the joinable companions currenlty in your party in exchange for the Effigy's Resentment talent. The talent itself offers a stackable bonus that differs according to which companion is sacrificed:

    • Aloth - +1 Intellect and +5 Reflexes
    • Devil of Caroc - +1 Dexterity and +1 Damage Reduction bypass
    • Durance - +1 Constitution and +10% maximum Endurance
