Understanding Attribute Unbounding
In Deepwoken, attributes such as Strength, Fortitude, Agility, Intelligence, Willpower, and Charisma can be developed up to a base cap of 75. To push an attribute beyond this limit, up to 100, players must undertake specific unbounding quests. Each attribute has a unique quest associated with its unbounding process.
Prerequisites for Intelligence Unbounding
Before embarking on the quest to unbound Intelligence, ensure the following:
-
Intelligence Level: Your character must have an Intelligence attribute of 75.
-
Preparation: Equip yourself with adequate supplies and gear to navigate potential challenges during the quest.
Step-by-Step Guide to Unbounding Intelligence
-
Reach 75 Intelligence: Invest in your Intelligence attribute until it reaches the required level.
-
Locate the Garden Reservoir: This area is essential for obtaining a Soul Hearthgem, a crucial item for the unbounding process.
-
Obtain a Soul Hearthgem: Within the Garden Reservoir, find a small cave containing acid pools. Navigate through this hazardous environment to acquire the Soul Hearthgem.
-
Proceed to The Birdcage: With the Soul Hearthgem in hand, head to The Birdcage.
-
Light the Braziers in Sequence: Inside The Birdcage, you’ll encounter four braziers. Light them in the following order:
-
Left
-
Back
-
Forward
-
Right
This sequence is crucial for progressing further.
-
-
Utilize the Zipline: After lighting the braziers correctly, use the nearby zipline and continue straight ahead until you discover a hole in a ruin.
-
Enter the Ruin: Descend into the hole and proceed into the blue fog area, where you’ll find blue mushrooms known as Bluecaps.
-
Consume Bluecaps: Eat three Bluecaps raw. Upon consuming the third, your character will black out and awaken with Intelligence Unbound, allowing you to increase your Intelligence attribute beyond 75.
Common Challenges and Solutions
-
Pre-lit Braziers: If you encounter braziers that are already lit, server hopping may reset them. Alternatively, waiting for a server reset can resolve this issue.
-
Difficulty Navigating the Garden Reservoir: The path to the Soul Hearthgem involves traversing acid pools. Equip items that offer resistance to environmental hazards or have healing supplies ready.
-
Unresponsive Unbounding Process: Ensure all steps are meticulously followed. Missing even a single step can hinder the unbounding process.
Alternative Methods and Community Insights
Some players have reported alternative approaches to unbounding Intelligence. For instance, completing specific quests, such as finding a legion soldier, followed by consuming a Bluecap, has been effective for some. However, these methods may vary in success and are not universally verified.
Conclusion
Unbounding Intelligence in Deepwoken is a multifaceted process that requires careful preparation and execution. By following the outlined steps and being aware of potential challenges, players can successfully enhance their Intelligence attribute, unlocking new potentials and enriching their gameplay experience.
