There are four versions of this quest. See:

In addition to the level requirements, this quest requires that you have the Player Killer status.

Walkthrough & Notes Edit

    • 84.5S, 64.9W, Northeast of Candeth Keep
    • 66.1N, 23.5W, Southwest of Stonehold
    • 1.0S, 76.0W, West of Fort Tethana
  2. Speak to the Gatekeeper to be teleported into the Mausoleum of Cruelty.
  3. Make your way to the Pillar of Cruelty and interact with it. This will flag you to use the Effigy for 30 minutes.
  4. Make your way to the Effigy of Cruelty and interact with it. As long as you are flagged, you may use the Effigy every 5 minutes for a reward.
  5. If you exceed the level restrictions of the dungeon while inside and attempt to use the Pillar or Effigy again, it will dispel your protections, cast Tusker's Gift on you, and debuff your jump skill. Then it will teleport you to high in the air at 20.2N, 71.2W, at the Shadow Spire crater north of Fort Tethana, where you will fall to your death.
