Description

This is a very short area and Faydark is the quickest plane to complete if you ignore the optional side quests. All you need to do is break all 8 of the Spirit Anchors in this area with a melee attack and you are done. Go to the right of the starting area for the first, and then follow the main loop all the way around and back to the portal to return to Firiona Vie and continue onto the Plane of Nightmares. That is all you need to do, but you have the option to do more.

There are two dead-end areas (the Orc Caves and the Unexplored Tomb) that are accessible from Faydark Forest. You can explore the Orc Cave as soon as you find it, if the all the orcs in Kelethin have been defeated. However you may want to wait until later to do so if you are coming back for the Unexplored Tomb anyway. To access the Unexplored Tomb, you need to clear the way using the Archaeologist’s Shovel that can be found randomly somewhere in the Orc Caves. But that only allows you limited access to the Unexplored Tomb until you also have the Words of Spiritual Harmony from the Plane of Nightmares.

Most Efficient Route

Follow the right side wall. Go explore the dead-end area of the Orc Caves for treasure and experience plus a side-quest item that isn’t super useful until after you get another side-quest item from the Plane of Nightmares.

Fastest Route

Follow the right side wall and skip the Orc Caves. Likely, the gate will be shut anyway.
