About Gravesite Plain

Gravesite Plain is the starting region of the Land of Shadow. Its major sites are Belurat, Tower Settlement (Divine Beast Dancing Lion), Castle Ensis (Rellana, Twin Moon Knight), the Ellac River leading down to the Cerulean Coast, the Fog Rift Fort, Fort of Reprimand and the Three-Path Cross where the DLC's NPCs gather. Collect Scadutree Fragments here first; they matter more than levels.

Bosses in Gravesite Plain (11)

  • Black Knight Garrew Show on map

    Holds the inner keep of Fog Rift Fort on the eastern edge of Gravesite Plain. His hammer swings are slow but shatter guards, so dodge rather than block.

    Reward: Black Steel Greathammer

  • Blackgaol Knight Show on map

    Sits in the Nameless Mausoleum on the western cliffs near Cliffroad Terminus. He opens with crossbow bolts, so close the gap fast and stay behind him.
