The Warden’s Blight

The Warden’s Blight is the wonder weapon of Rex Infernus, and its debut: a pair of ornate crossbows, fired akimbo, that belonged to the Warden himself. Its in-game description: “Unleash double the terror with this pair of Dark Aether-infused crossbows, incorporating the vengeful vestiges of the Warden’s victims.”

Warden’s Blight

Its bolts are powerful and track their target, curving in the air to reach it. Pack-a-Punched, it gains a charged shot that raises small, deadly tornadoes where it lands. The charged shot is needed many times in the main quest.

The first one is always earned through its quest, in the Dravakar Inner Sanctum; that quest also opens Dravakar’s Anvil. Once it has been obtained, the Warden’s Blight can come out of the Mystery Box for 950 Essence and the other random rewards of the map. The quest needs the Pack-a-Punch, for its cranks, and the Void Claw.

The Fracture of Nyxara

Find an Astral Tear, a pink orb floating around the map, and drag it to the Pack-a-Punch with the Void Claw. The Tear starts to circle the machine.
Turn the cranks on either side of the Pack-a-Punch to surge the Nexus: the Tear is thrown into the two braziers at the top of the stairs.
Get PhD Flopper, go to the Dravakar Entrance and wall-jump up to the platform at the top of the entrance. Blow up the wall on the right of the structure that hangs from the central wall. It opens on the Fracture of Nyxara.

The crystals of Nyxara

Take an Astral Flame from one of the braziers and hurry to the Nyxara Sanctuary. Shoot the eye statue of the room with it.
An orb starts to bounce around the room. Hit the pointer under each crystal with the Void Claw to turn the crystals on the walls, so that the orb bounces on towards the Nyxara Main Chamber.
Reach the empty crystal holder, by wall-jumping or with the Void Claw, and set the Fracture of Nyxara in it. Keep turning the crystals until the orb strikes the door of the Nyxara Inner Sanctum.
In the Inner Sanctum, walk up to the orb: the player is stunned and the floor gives way onto a chamber below. Kill the Deathspinners that come out.
Stand by the vines in the middle of the chamber until the bar fills; they drain health meanwhile. From round 8, eat a fruit from the vines.

The forest

The fruit sends the player to a forest, where three charred bodies each give a part:

Against a rock

In the middle of the forest. A short animation plays, then the part can be picked up.

In the cabin

The floorboard next to the body has to be hit with a melee attack to show the part.

By the cavern

On the side of the forest opposite to where the player arrives, near the entrance of a cave.

The pillar of Dravakar

In the Dravakar Sanctuary, the blue writing on a wall reads out a riddle. It tells which way the four symbols of the pillars in the next room must face: the Moon, the Star, the Galaxy and the Meteor, called the Runner. Three levers turn them: one in the room of the writing, on the wall across from it, one on the left of the pillar room near the stairs, and one on the right, inside a wall. The riddle changes from game to game:

Riddle	Levers
“I drift to the runner that travels moons, who borrow from galaxies when stars stay true.”	Left 3 times, writing room 2 times, right once
“I remember the runner that travels to stars, while moons and galaxies stay true.”	Writing room 2 times, right 3 times
“I drift to stars that remember moons, who borrow the runner that travels galaxies.”	Left once, writing room 2 times, right 2 times
“I remember galaxies that drift to moons, who borrow the runner that travels the stars.”	Left 2 times, right 2 times

Pull the lever inside the central pillar to enter the combination. The pillar sinks and opens a passage.
Grapple into the Dravakar Inner Sanctum with the Void Claw and interact with the anvil: the Warden’s Blight is yours, and Dravakar’s Anvil is free to use from then on.

Dravakar’s Anvil

The anvil of the Dravakar Inner Sanctum, where the Warden’s Blight lies. Once the crossbows are taken, it breaks down other weapons into Aetherium Crystals and Aether Tools.

Skins

Bloodthorn

The skin given for the main quest in Standard mode.

Netherclaw

The skin given for the main quest in Directed Mode.
