Indoor Faydwer Lv 35–50

🗺 Zone map

The in-game map for this zone. North is up.

A fully submerged ruin beneath Dagnor's Cauldron, home to the drowned keep's sages and sea creatures under the guardian Phinigel Autropos. The whole zone is underwater, which shapes every pull, and it holds strong caster and hybrid loot.

How to Get to Kedge Keep

Reached by swimming down through the southern lake in Dagnor's Cauldron on Faydwer.

EnemiesSea horses, sharks, drageloths, animated sailfins, and the keep's undead sages. Everything is underwater, so water breathing is mandatory.

Dangers

The whole zone is underwater, so you need reliable water breathing or you drown. Erratic mob pathing makes pulls unpredictable, animated sailfins explode for around 400 area damage when killed, and Estrella sees invisible and strips buffs.

Tips

Bring water breathing for the whole group and clear sailfins at range so their death blast doesn't catch you. Split Phinigel's guardians carefully before engaging him.
