Locations and access

Beyond Hermit Village beside his grace

Mt. Gelmir · Seated master

Starting Site of Grace: Primeval Sorcerer Azur

  1. From Erdtree-Gazing Hill on Altus Plateau, ride north through Wyndham Ruins and enter the valley beside Mt. Gelmir at Seethewater River. Follow the valley north, then around the mountain toward Seethewater Terminus.
  2. At Fort Laiedd, continue south along the outside of the fort toward the lava pool. Follow the bank around the Magma Wyrm instead of entering the fort; defeating the wyrm is not required.
  3. Keep following the mountain path past Hermit's Shack and the nearby Runebear, then continue to Craftsman's Shack and Hermit Village. The enemies along this route are separate from the pickup, so keep moving if you do not want those fights.
  4. Go through the village and past Demi-Human Queen Maggie to the seated sorcerer with the green crystal head beside Primeval Sorcerer Azur grace. Interact with him and wait through the pause to receive Comet Azur. Do not attack him.

Notes

  • Demi-Human Queen Maggie and the Magma Wyrm on the approach are separate enemies. Their defeat is not the interaction that awards Comet Azur.
  • Azur’s seated place and grace are beyond Hermit Village, not inside Volcano Manor’s dining rooms.
  • Comet Azur and his armor arrive at different quest stages. Collecting the spell does not make the armor available immediately.
  • Helping Jerren against Sellen does not provide the same later master-armor outcome.
  • His spell can begin Sellen’s request without spending levels to meet its Intelligence requirement first.
