Dawnwalker collectibles

Bladedancer's Tunic

The Bladedancer's Tunic is a chest armour piece for Coen. Guides have not pinned down a fixed spot for it yet, so treat it as loot you pick up or buy while exploring Vale Sangora.

Blood Surge

Blood Surge is a night-only Vampirism ability that makes a target burst from the inside through their own blood. You unlock it by drinking Xanthe's blood, so it is tied to her questline.

Brencis's Flags

Brencis's Flags are five banners hung in the gatehouses of Svartrau City. Cut all of them down to earn Capture the Flag, but expect guards and a rise in Infamy.

Compel Soul

Compel Soul is the first Witchcraft hex Coen learns, from Anca, after Laslea is sacked. It makes the recently dead replay the moments before they died, which is how you crack many investigations.

Crimson Rush

Crimson Rush is a Vampirism power that makes your active abilities hit harder the healthier you are. It is open from the start, so you only need Corruption and skill points to learn it.

Draught of Mind Rebirth

The Draught of Mind Rebirth is a consumable that resets Coen's abilities so you can spend the points again. It arrived with Update 1.1, so you can now fix a build you regret.

Hidden Treasures

Hidden treasures are buried caches across Vale Sangora, usually found by following a treasure map. They are worth chasing for strong gear, including at least one legendary greatsword.

Magic Manuals

Magic manuals unlock new Witchcraft spells or upgrades. You cannot learn most hexes without the matching manual, so pick up every one you find.

Mesmerise

Mesmerise is a Vampirism power that lets you take control of an enemy's mind. You unlock it with Lacra's blood during The Night of Horrors, so it comes from story progress.

Mireleaf Bracers

The Mireleaf Bracers are light bracers you can grab early from a sealed sarcophagus during Deep Down. They lower Omniblock stamina cost and add a little critical hit chance.

Piercing Shriek

Piercing Shriek is a Vampirism power that stuns enemies with a banshee-like scream. You unlock it with Brencis's blood, either from a phial in Xanthe's Recruiters: Taste of Power or at the end of Our Rotten Roots.

Sangoran Wayfarer's Armor Set

The Sangoran Wayfarer's Armor Set was the pre-order bonus for every edition. It lands in Coen's inventory automatically near the end of the Prologue, with no code to redeem.

Scarlet Shield

Scarlet Shield is a passive Vampirism power that heals you when you land a perfect block. You unlock it with Ambrus's blood, so plan your Ambrus quests around it.

Scouting Towers

Scouting towers are 11 high points across Vale Sangora that you climb at night to survey the land. Each one reveals nearby points of interest, so climb them early.

Shadowstep

Shadowstep turns you into black mist and red moths for a moment, so you cover distance almost instantly. At night it is your main way up walls and towers.

Shamanism

Shamanism is nature magic used by Uriash elders, drawing on fog and lightning. Coen can learn it in the Pilgrimage of Power questline by finding glyphs carved into stone monuments.

Swordmastery Manuals

Swordmastery manuals unlock new sword techniques and abilities. You need the right manual before a Swordmastery skill can be bought, so loot soldiers, bandits and camp chests.

Vrakhiri Blood Phials

Vrakhiri blood phials hold the blood of a named vampire. Drinking one unlocks that vampire's power for Coen, and later sips upgrade it, so they are the key to most Vampirism abilities.

Witchcraft

Witchcraft is blood magic cast by carving runes into your skin and drawing your own blood. It is Coen's daytime spell tree, unlocked through Anca and grown with magic manuals.

Wolf Form

Wolf Form lets Coen shift into a wolf at night to move faster across Vale Sangora. Coen has no horse, so this is your main way to cover ground after dark.
