Akt 1

The Submerged Passage The Doublestairs lead to the ledge. The flooded depths are mostly located near the stairs. The stairs are normally located at the bottom right of the map and the flooded depths are on the left side of the stairs.

The Ledge There are 3 little stonepiles at the Waypoint. Those piles show you the direction of Kuduku and the climb.

Prison You just follow the bloodtrace to find brutus.

Prisoner’s Gate You use the street to orient yourself. On one Side there is a Stonewall and on the other side is a cscliff. The cliff shows you where the way is. You don’t have to meet piety to close the next entrance first.

Akt 2 The Riverways At the waypoint you search for 2 Pillars and an overgrown street. This street leads to the Wetlands. If you follow the street to the left you will get to the western forests.

The Chamber of Sins Level 2

Fidelitas is always on the north side of the waypoint. The Trial is through the south door. On the north side you keep to the right edge and you look for an elongated corridor. It mostly contains an carpet in the middle of the floor.

The Caverns As soon as you arrive at the caverns you keep to the left. The entrance to the ancient pyramid is always on the left side. There are doors to the left that lead to a dead end so be mindfull and don’t always take the first possible door. As it turns out that’s not always the case.

The Ancient Pyramid

The Pyramid has always a diagonal layout. To orient yourself you check the bottom corner and that gives you a hint in which corner you stand. Just walk diagonal into the opposite direction.
