Altus Plateau
Starting Site of Grace: Perfumer's Grotto
- From Altus Highway Junction, take the lower path north beside the great staircase toward Leyndell. Keep alongside the rock wall instead of climbing the staircase; watch for bears along the approach.
- Find the giant Miranda plant concealing Perfumer's Grotto's opening. Pass the plant, enter the cave and activate its grace.
- Descend to the first large chamber. The upper-ledge Perfumer uses a sword; farm the shield-carrying patroller below and the seated shield carrier beside the giant Miranda plant instead.
- Collect glowing drops and rest at the entrance to repeat. The selected carriers have a 2% base shield chance at 100 Discovery; the cave's boss pair is unnecessary.
Notes
- Requires eight Strength and weighs only 1.5. Standard affinity blocks 78% Physical damage and starts with 45 Guard Boost; Lightning protection is only 16%.
- Adds 40 Immunity while selected, raising resistance to Poison and Scarlet Rot buildup. It neither cures an ailment already active nor reduces every tick of its damage.
- Parry is fitted by default and costs no FP. Its light weight and resistance passive are separate from its partial physical blocking.
- Two shield carriers are in Perfumer's Grotto's first large chamber: a patrolling Perfumer below and the seated one beside the giant Miranda plant. The Perfumer on the upper ledge carries a sword instead.
- The selected Altus Perfumers have a 2% base shield chance at 100 Discovery. Some expansion Perfumers use a different drop list; do not apply their rate to this cave.
- The Omenkiller and Miranda boss pair is unnecessary for the farm. Defeat the nearby shield carriers, collect their drops and rest at the entrance grace.
- Upgrade it with ordinary Smithing Stones to +25. The listed blocking percentages and base Guard Boost describe Standard affinity; changing affinity can trade physical protection for an element.
- Can use compatible shield Ashes of War. Shield Grease or Scholar's Shield can improve guarding; these are defensive shield buffs rather than permission to apply ordinary offensive grease to every affinity.
