Giant-Conquering Hero's Grave

Starting Site of Grace: Giant-Conquering Hero's Grave

  1. Reach the Mountaintops of the Giants using the Rold Medallion after Morgott. Giant-Conquering Hero's Grave sits on the higher western plateau, so its nearby map marker cannot be reached by riding straight up from Zamor Ruins.
  2. From Church of Repose, ride north to the lower cliffside route, then follow the valley west. Use the projecting rock to jump across the gap onto the tomb's plateau. Enter the large doors and ride the lift down to the grace.
  3. Take the southern passage from the entrance. At the bottom of the stairs, get past the patrolling Fire Monk and turn west to the dead end. Strike or roll into the left section of the wall to reveal a passage.
  4. Follow that passage west and jump south through its final window. The golden circle below makes shadow enemies vulnerable. Draw the imps into the light before fighting, and avoid the shadow Watchdog while moving through the room.
  5. Take the southern tunnel toward the flame pillar. Hit it with a ranged attack to lower it and stop the fire, then get past the next Fire Monk. Continue south beyond the optional imp seal and descend to the lift.
  6. Ride down, then activate the lift again and immediately step or roll off onto the lower floor. Sending it upward exposes the golden light beneath it. Pull the lever southeast of the lift to open the large gate.
  7. Go east down the stairs and draw the shadow troll back through that gate into the light. Stay close enough to keep it following, then defeat it once it becomes vulnerable. Its death opens the boss doors farther east.
  8. Return down the eastern stairs, pass through the opened doors and descend to the mist gate. Defeat the Ancient Hero of Zamor for Zamor Curved Sword and all four Zamor armor pieces together.

Notes

  • Defeating him awards Zamor Curved Sword and the Zamor armor set. Those are direct fight rewards rather than loose pieces hidden throughout the dungeon.
  • The shadow-protected troll on the approach must be drawn into the golden light and defeated to open the final boss route.
  • Use the lift and light puzzle to solve that obstacle. Repeatedly attacking the protected troll in darkness will not substitute for bringing it into the lit area.
  • The Ancient Hero’s frost breath covers the ground ahead. Circle away from the breath and let the lingering area clear before stepping back in.
  • His later frost attacks can continue after the initial sword swing. Save stamina for the follow-up instead of emptying the bar on an early dodge.
  • This is a separate boss from the Ancient Heroes in Weeping Evergaol and Sainted Hero’s Grave. Their earlier rewards do not include this set.
