Description

As you might expect in a dungeon called Serpent’s Lair, there are going to be a lot of snakes. And spiders too. So if you are afraid of this type of wildlife, then this place is not going to be for you!

In some ways this dungeon is a bit different from others, it is very straightforward with not as much to-ing and fro-ing as some and the objectives tend to revolve around just having to kill the enemies.

To start off with you begin in the Slithering Descent and will have to head deep underground to the Hunting Grounds.

Once there it is the usual ‘Collect Animus from the etc’, so you need to travel around finding the carriers until you fill up the bar to max so you can then deposit it in the nearby Animus Urn which will remove a barrier to the next section of the dungeon.

Some of these Animus Carriers are tough, simply due to the number of enemies in the vicinity but with care you should be able to get through without dying, even if you are solo.

As you move about there are two shrines you will pass, once of which will trigger a Cursed Shrine event.

Once you have activated the urn you need to move on to the Shadowed Depths where you must now find and destroy three heavily guarded Ward Eyes. The Eyes themselves are not difficult but, again the huge weight of enemy presence might cause the odd headache.

Once you beat the third Eye you have completed the Serpent’s Lair.
