The Lords of Dust are demons and demon worshippers who seek to free the fiendish Overlords who ruled Eberron long ago during the Age of Demons.

Overview

Help Inquisitor Gnomon Investigate Cultist Activities in the Harbor.

Objectives

  • Talk to Inquisitor Gnomon
  • Kill the Cultists in the Next Room
    • Walk to the far side of the room first, the mobs in the front don't attack for a few seconds
  • Wait for Gnomon to exit the south west exit, then go out the north west (north wall) exit
  • See Opt 1: Altars
  • Continue down the hall, there are two groups of cultists, one at the first stretch and the second on the second stretch
  • See Opt 2: Bastion
  • Walk up the Stairs and find Gnomon's Apprentice on the floor
  • Another Cultist Encounter here, door to next room is barred
  • Next room is Marilith's Boss Fight. She can be instakilled if she is not a champ
  • Destroy the bookcase to the right of the chest, revealing a lever to the next area
  • Shrine here can be run back to
  • There are three traps (Horizontal Blades, Fire, and Vertical Blades) on each stretch of the way down, if you die in there, you'll generally be able to get to the shrine, or if someone got to the bottom and can res you. (See Traps #1-3)
  • Enter the door to the Hidden Temple.
  • At the bottom of this short corridor, there are two death knights and a cultist.
  • The next corridor, or balcony, initiates a dialogue between Gnomon and Thamael.
  • Door at other end is unlocked after Gnomon's says "... No..."
  • At bottom of stairs is a fight with more Death Knights and Cultists
  • Next room is Tahmael boss fight and the final altar.
  • There is a shrine in the next room, players usually use this after clearing the next hallway
  • Next hallway contains a short fight and spike traps. There are two trap boxes for these
  • The next area contains two traps that can be disabled once they're activated.. They get activated after the Rakasha spawns in at the center when you get close (There is a sonic trap at the entrance and the exit)
  • The exit opens after you kill the Rakasha and the two Khyber Jariliths
  • Final boss fight has a "cutscene", and three parts
    • Cutscene isn't activated until you walk up to Gnomon
    1. Cultist Minions transform to Skeletons and attack you
    2. Gnomon (Rakasha Form) attacks you (He is a spellcaster)
      • He can be Instakilled (As per success on Epic Elite)
