Crypt Key

Item purpose

What makes this objective quite tricky is the distance between two points of interest. The crypt itself is in one part of a region, while the key that unlocks it is all the way at the opposite end.

You need to strike it so that it's placed on top of a pressure plate, which then allows you to enter a small chamber. A bunch of items await you in the inner recesses of the Hall of Echoes. Inside the chamber, you'll find the following goodies: Winterglass Gem - Can be sold to Merrick to receive 1,000 coins.

Location and route

It's in the western reaches of the Fainweald region. Meanwhile, the locked door that it opens is actually in Eastern Fainweald. It's due north of the Grisha Hunting Grounds and south of the Stones of Remembrance.

It turns you into a sheep to make you undetectable, and it also has a passive effect that reduces the maximum health of enemies by a low percentage.
