    Watcher of the Dead teleports you with Access to Xi Ru's Font.

    As <Player Name> lifts the crown from the dais, a thin wisp of light is pulled forward. A great protector has been disturbed. The only way to open the door leading from this chamber is to defeat the defender. Only then could one use the crown to unseal the way to Qin Xikit's temple.

  3. To activate the Portal Device, all 4 eyes (north, south, east, west) must be used one time. Be careful, each time you use an eye, you will receive 5% vitae.
    • Tip: Have 4 separate people each use one eye in order to spread the vitae around.

    Portal Device teleports you with Qin Xikit's Antechamber.

Part 3B: Qin Xikit's Antechamber

    • Note: There are two spots in the dungeon where you'll have to flip levers/floor plates in order to open doors. See the map for more info.
  2. Use the Guardian statue that is located just to the right of the Portal Device (NOT the Portal Device itself) to be portaled into the Secrets of Qin Xikit's Temple.

  3. Once your Water Skin has 6 pints, hand it to the West Sacrificial Statue to pass the trial:
    Sacrificial Statue tells you, "Your sacrifice has been accepted, you may now proceed to the next room."
    • Note: You can also fill the Water Skin with 9 or 10 pints of blood and hand it to the East or South Statues, respectively.
  4. Once you've passed the trial, go to the South room, jump down into the pit, and use the Exit Portal to go to Qin Xikit's Temple.

Part 5: Qin Xikit's Temple

  1. From the portal drop, hug the left wall all the way to the end of the dungeon, where you'll find a Guardian statue.
  2. Note: Once you pass through the octagonal type room, and go through a short narrow hallway, you'll need to descend a 2nd ramp. See the map for details.
  3. Use the Guardian to be portaled into Qin Xikit's Tomb:
    Guardian teleports you with Qin Xikit's Tomb.

Part 6: Qin Xikit's Tomb

  1. From the drop, use the Sarcophagus of High Matriarch Qin Xikit on the North wall, which will give you the Ancient Armored Helm, a piece of Ancient Armor.
  2. Use the Portal Device on the West wall to be portaled into Qin Xikit's Receiving Chamber, the last dungeon.
    Portal Device teleports you with Qin Xikit's Receiving Chamber.
    • Note: You will receive 5% vitae upon using the Portal Device.

Part 7: Qin Xikit's Receiving Chamber

  1. Work your way North through the dungeon to the end, where you'll find the end boss, Browerk, sitting in his throne room.
    • Note: If you choose, you can work off vitae in the first part of the dungeon before reaching the boss.
  2. There are several things to know before going into the fight with Browerk, review these tactics:
    • Do not debuff him, he counters most debuffs.
    • Disband your fellowship before going into battle. Browerk casts Fellowship Debuffs, so you lessen the chance to be debuffed when not in a fellowship.
    • If you are swallowed (portaled into Browerk's stomach), quickly switch to a Critical Strike weapon, and attack his Stomach Wall on full speed. You have only have a percent chance of escaping his stomach when you land a critical hit.
      • Tip: If you're a mage, use wall spells for a greater chance to critical hit.
  3. Once you kill Browerk, loot Browerk's Hide from the floor.
  4. Speak to Guard Haigh at 25.7N, 48.9E in Cragstone for your XP and random reward.
  5. [OPTIONAL] Hand Browerk's Hide to Guard Haigh for the title of Browerk Killer.
    • Note: Hold on to the hide if you are trying to obtain the Kingslayer title. See the Clutch of Kings for more information.

Lore & Dialog

Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Qin Xikit, Mistress of the Golden Shore, Keeper of the Kilika Vale in Ualannan's absence, lays beneath over thirty thousands years of weight. She has been silent these years imprisoned beneath her temple, bound by those who called her sister."
Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Once she walked amongst children of other suns and ushered them along a quickened path. Heresy! Cried our sisters and a great hunt began within our sect. A schism grew and swallowed our sisters in madness. They drew chains of mana about our immortal forms and locked our eternal bodies away."
Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Qin Xikit was the first to feel the sting of her sister's barbs, locked into a temple of her crafting, sealed away with the power of her crown."
Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Eternal silence is shattered and Qin Xikit stirs in her tomb. A gateway has opened and through it comes consumption. Sealed in her tomb the matron can do nothing and the spirits therein are all but gone. I am the last to hold vigil."
Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Seek her crown. Xi Ru consumed in madness, sealed Qin Xikit away. The crown must be found and the gateway to Qin Xikit's temple must be opened. At long last I can see Xi Ru's island, the magic that once locked it from sight has failed, a sister has succeeded at breaking the wards."
Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Rejoice! Absolution is at hand."


In the great Ziggurat of Qin Xikit, <Player Name> has struck a mortal blow against King Browerk. The bulbous leader of the Burun erupts in a violent spasm and collapses in a fit of explosive mana emissions. The leader will return in time, but the victory should be enjoyed for the moment. Huzzah, <Player Name>!


Guard Haigh gives you Gem of Damage Addition.
You've earned 56,184,660 experience.
Guard Haigh tells you, "This is for your efforts against the Burun Kukuur, King Browerk. You will need to wait three weeks before returning to me for another reward. If you wish to change your title and you have a scrap of Browerk's hide I will accept the hide and name you Browerk Killer!"


You give Guard Haigh Browerk's Hide.
Let it be known that <Player Name> has faced and defeated Browerk! Let it be known that from this day forth <Player Name> shall be known as Browerk Killer! Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah!
