Requirements
- Pierce the veil to find the helm.
"Piercing the veil" refers to going through an illusory wall in the North-West most room of the dungeon. Once you get there look for an archway that's built into the wall seemingly leading nowhere. Two Huntsman Spider enemies are within guarding the chest.
- Use both levers to unlock the gloves.
The goal here is to open the two locked gates just south of the entrance. Head straight south after entering the first locked gate at the entrance. You'll find three rooms on the east followed by a fourth on the west...past that you are on the next level of the cellar. The objective of this part of the quest is in the third room on the east side locked behind 2 gates. You hit both levels within a reasonable amount of time in order to unlock both gates and get the gloves. The first level is in second room on the east side (heading south). The second level is in the fourth room on the west (heading south). This will unlock both gates giving you access to the chest with the gloves.
- Go beyond the dead-end to find the boots.
"Beyond the dead-end" refers to another illusory wall. Upon entering the gate leading into the dungeon, go straight south until you come to the second path leading west. Take this path for a short distance until the crossroads and then enter the room to your north. Continue straight through this room and then follow the path on your right leading east to a dead end to find the wall hiding the chest.
- Take a jog to find the pants.
Another timed lever puzzle. This time, upon entering the dungeon take the first left with a long hallway leading west. Continue down this pathway to the second left-handed turn, which leads to a large room with a lever in it. Pull this and quickly go back north and right, this time going down the first pathway leading south which you passed by originally. The gate opened by the timed lever is on the right-handed side of this hallway.
- Return to the pedestal to claim the key.
Once you've compeleted all four steps, return to the starting room of the dungeon and interact with the Proclamation to obtain a key.
- Find the secret passage in the first room.
Use the key you received from the Proclamation on the Skull Lock on the opposite end of the room. Just south of the skull lock is an illusory wall leading to a room.
- Defeat the guardian to find the suit and blade.
Defeat the guardian inside the room and interact with the chest.
- Return to the pedestal to claim your birthright.
Return to the Proclamation to finish the quest!
