[edit] Mission information

[edit] Objectives

Lend aid to the White Mantle in their fight against the undead.

[edit] Walkthrough

First eliminate the undead from a nearby village, where Benji Makala lives (point 1 on the map). Note that Benji is the only villager you need to worry about, head towards him directly and keep him alive if you want to complete the bonus. Saving the other villagers is needed for neither mission nor bonus, however, a morale boost is received for each villager saved.

After saving the village, travel through a swamp and get to the Temple of Tolerance (point A), where Confessor Dorian is being besieged by swarms of undead. A Shrine of Mending is available, providing your party with a health regeneration bonus while in its area of effect. After many waves of skeletons and ghouls, he informs you that a White Mantle member named Dinas has found the Scepter of Orr and that you must retrieve it from him.

Follow the ettin infested path to Dinas who is fending off a boss. After killing the boss, the mission ends and you are inducted into the White Mantle who have a special mission for you in Divinity Coast.

[edit] Bonus

If you keep Benji alive, his brother Gate Guard Makala (point 2) will let you through a special gate leading to the bonus. Upon arrival at the settlement, quickly locate Benji and split a member or two off to protect him. Benji will soon move to attack a boss that spawns near him, and depending on the boss that spawned, he may get killed. When the boss is down, he will then proceed to a Shrine of Mending in the center of the village engaging any group in his way. Beware of overaggro, especially against Zombie Warlocks and their minions. If you manage to save Benji, talk to him to receive the bonus. Note: Benji will give the bonus if you do not clear out the village of the Undead, but his brother will not let you pass through the gate until the village is cleared.

Talk to Makala and he will open the gate that leads to the bonus path (yellow), a swampy track populated by undead which runs parallel to the main path of the mission (red). Your task is to pick up the Offering to Melandru at point (3) and carry it to the stand for the offering located at point (4). While the drop-off point is very close to the pick-up point (note the broken bridge), the only way there is via the temple. A door operated by a lever connects bonus and main path.

Note that as you approach the pick up point and the door, Confessor Dorian will be added to your party as an ally, and the siege at the temple will begin. Also, the offering will break if dropped requiring you to go back and pick a new one, so it should be carried by a caster. After Dorian sends you to get the scepter, take a detour to the north before rescuing Dinas and deliver the offering to complete the bonus (point 4).

In normal mode, it is possible to follow the bonus path, pick up the offering and then simply backtrack to the door and continue with the mission. In hard mode, this strategy may prove unwise, since too many foes may gather around Dorian before you have time to reach him and the character holding the bundle will lose all weapon and shield benefits for the rest of the mission. In this situation, it is recommended to proceed directly to the temple once you reach the door and pick up the offering only when the siege around Dorian is over. For an even safer strategy, consider going through the main path and clearing everything up to point (4) before you talk to Makala.

[edit] Skill Recommendations

[edit] Hard mode

  • Hurry up when approaching Confessor Dorian, as he will otherwise get overwhelmed by the undead mob charging towards him.
  • A minion master is very useful for the siege: no creature in this area casts Verata's Aura or Verata's Gaze, and the health regeneration bonus provided by the Shrine of Mending will keep the minions up longer.

When speaking to Confessor Dorian after the assault on the Temple of Tolerance.

Confessor Dorian: "Yes, yes I am already aware of the undead army. When the fort fell under attack, I sent my scribe, Dinas, away with a package."

Confessor Dorian: "I would be indebted if you would locate Dinas and return him to safety."

Dinas: "I know who you are. You're the heroes everyone is talking about!"
<party leader>: "That's right, and we're here to escort you back to the Temple of Tolerance."
Dinas: "We can't go back to the temple. It's swarming with undead."
<party leader>: "That's already been taken care of. The temple is safe again."

Confessor Dorian: "For your service to the White Mantle, it is my great pleasure to induct you into our organization and bestow upon you the title of Knight of the Mantle."
Confessor Dorian: "Arise, Knight of the Mantle, and join your brothers-in-arms."
