Complete Beginner Guide For Dawn of Defiance
Three Sites of Power
As you start on the game you will only be limited to one Island and you will need to complete some tasks to unlock the vaster and more resource-filled mainland.
To get to the three sites of power you will follow the three lights that are in the night sky.
Abilities and Weapons
At the three sites of power, you will need to craft special stone weapons for the statues and donate 50 ambrosia dust to get special weapons and abilities.
Fast Travel
Once you have completed all three sites of power you will unlock the Hecate Temple that will be used for fast travel.
How To Get Ambrosia Dust
There are three ways that you can get Ambrosia Dust which will then be used to complete the sites of power.
Attacking The Wisps
One way you can get a small amount of Ambrosia Dust is attacking the Wisps.
Purple Flowers
Another way in which you can get Ambrosia Dust is by running through the purple flowers at night. Note that you can only collect Ambrosia Dust from these flowers at night.
The Lost and Abandoned
The most reliable way of getting Ambrosia Dust is defeating trolls. Once you have defeated them they will drop either a small or large amount of Ambrosia Dust.
They can be mostly found during the night time or in caves.
Abilities
The main abilities you get when you start are Dash, which can be used to dodge enemy attacks and glide. Both of these abilities require stamina to carry out.
The Portal
Once you have opened the door to the Hecate Temple you will need an additional:
- 400 Ambrosia Dust
- 50 Animal Bones
- 200 Softwood
- 200 Stone
Once you have gotten these items you will be able to activate and use the portal.
Chests
Chests are scattered all over the Island and contain items such as ambrosia dust, weapon recipes, and gold coins that you can use later in the game to buy items from traders so make sure to loot chests as often as you can.
Gear
Before going out to the mainland ensure that you have enough gear for survival. Crafting a sword, shield, and bow and arrows.
You can also craft spears are important to ensure your survival while on the mainland.
Also, ensure you upgrade your head and chest armor as these are the two important armors in the game.
These simple steps will help you get through the first Island and to the mainland. I hope you enjoyed this quick guide. Happy Gaming!
