Eastern Nameless Mausoleum

Starting Site of Grace: Recluses' River Downstream

Before you go

  • To enter the Realm of Shadow, defeat Starscourge Radahn and Mohg, Lord of Blood, then touch the withered arm in Mohg's arena at Mohgwyn Palace.
  • Reach Recluses' River through the coffin passage beneath Shadow Keep.
  1. To enter the Realm of Shadow, defeat Starscourge Radahn and Mohg, Lord of Blood, then touch the withered arm in Mohg's arena at Mohgwyn Palace.
  2. For the main Shadow Keep approach, defeat the Golden Hippopotamus and activate Main Gate Plaza grace. Follow the left-hand route through the keep to the upper courtyard lined with burning boats. Watch for the Militiamen hiding beside them.
  3. At the southeastern end of the boat courtyard, find the ladder beside the outer railing and descend to the water. Walk behind the waterfall and take the second ladder down to the painting room.
  4. Strike the false wall beside the Domain of Dragons painting. Follow the revealed passage and rest in the stone coffin to arrive at Castle Watering Hole.
  5. Head south past Ruins of Unte, avoiding the active Furnace Golem. Follow the eastern, left-hand cliff beside the waterfall to Recluses' River Upstream grace.
  6. Continue south along the cliff ledges. Where the route changes sides, jump across to the western, right-hand bank and follow it down to Recluses' River Downstream grace. Clear nearby Man-Flies before attempting the drops.
  7. From Recluses' River Downstream, look below the cliff for the large gravestones. Descend them carefully to the first lower river branch. Stop at this river level rather than continuing over the next waterfall toward the lower hippo lake and Darklight Catacombs.
  8. Follow this river east and southeast around its bend. At the next waterfall, look left for Eastern Nameless Mausoleum. Enter and go down the stairs to the fog gate.
  9. Defeat Rakshasa for her great katana and all four armor pieces. Her long sweeping skill can continue through repeated swings; back away until the sequence ends instead of trying to interrupt every slash.

Notes

  • Victory awards Rakshasa’s Great Katana and all four Rakshasa armor pieces.
  • Weed Cutter can continue through repeated sweeps. Stay clear until the sequence ends instead of assuming the first slash is your opening.
  • Do not rely on a light hit to interrupt every committed swing. Her attack can continue while you are trying to trade.
  • The selected route leaves Recluses’ River at the first lower river branch. Continuing down the next waterfall leads toward Darklight Catacombs instead.
  • The mausoleum is beside the left side of the river’s next waterfall. The large stone-coffin valley below is a different destination.
  • Spirit Ashes are unavailable for this mausoleum duel. Prepare your own short punish and recovery windows.
