The Cloister of Enlightenment isn’t a logic puzzle — it’s a stat check. Three doors test your Health, Spirit, and Stamina, and if your build is short on points you’ll be stopped cold. Here’s exactly what you need and where to grab the Faded Abyss Artifact first.
Short Answer
Make sure you have at least 6 Health, 6 Spirit, and 5 Stamina (respec if you’re short). Grab the Faded Abyss Artifact at the end of the left tunnel, then push each stone door to pass its check: Steadfast Resilience (drains health), Unyielding Will (tests spirit — keep it fully charged), and Boundless Vigor (drains stamina). Clearing the third door opens the way to the Master Du boss.
Key Takeaways
- Requirements: 6 Health, 6 Spirit, 5 Stamina — respec your points if needed.
- Grab the Faded Abyss Artifact down the left tunnel (plus a red book: One-Handed Weapons Vol. III).
- Door 1 Steadfast Resilience drains health — start at full HP.
- Door 2 Unyielding Will needs a fully charged Spirit meter.
- Door 3 Boundless Vigor drains stamina (it regenerates) — clearing it opens the Master Du fight.
How Do You Open the Three Doors?
Meet the stat thresholds, then push each door to pass its check.
- Check your stats. Open your skill tree and confirm 6 Health, 6 Spirit, 5 Stamina. Respec if you’re under.
- Get the artifact. From the entrance, head down the left tunnel to the end for the Faded Abyss Artifact (and grab the red book, One-Handed Weapons of the World Vol. III).
- Door 1 — Steadfast Resilience. Push the door with full health; it siphons HP and opens once you pass the 6 Health check.
- Door 2 — Unyielding Will. Push with a fully charged Spirit meter to pass the 6 Spirit check.
- Door 3 — Boundless Vigor. Push to drain stamina; with 5 Stamina you’ll pass and open the way to Master Du.
