Avowed: Wael’s Totem Piece Locations in Shatterscarp

The seven pieces of Wael’s Eyes of the Obscured Totem are scattered across Shatterscarp, the third region in the Living Lands. Each piece can give you a powerful combat buff in Avowed.

What are Totems in Avowed?

A Totem is comprised of 7 pieces you can find scattered across a singular region of the Living Lands. You can assemble the Totem pieces to make an altar at your camp.

You can also buy a Quest Item from a Merchant in each region that gives you a hint about the location of each fragment of the Totem and keep track of which ones you’ve collected, but it’s not necessary to complete the Totem.

Each Totem is dedicated to one of the gods of Eora, and, when assembled and activated, each piece provides a unique combat buff themed around what the Eoran god represents.

There are 4 Totems you can assemble and each synergizes with a specific skill tree—Fighter, Ranger, Wizard, or Companions.

Since you can only have 1 Totem active at a time, you can’t mix and match buffs from different Totems. The gods will only help their devout, so it’s beneficial to find and assemble all 7 pieces, at least for your build.

You can’t begin assembling a given Totem at your camp until you get the Totem’s base, which is located at a shrine dedicated to the associated god in each region.

Wael Totem Piece Locations

The Eyes of the Obscured Totem is dedicated to Wael. Its pieces are located in Shatterscarp, the third region you’ll visit in the Living Lands.

If you prefer clues instead of exact locations, purchase the Fragments of the Eyes from the Cinzia, barkeep of The Dead Swordfish in Thirdborn. You can follow the instructions in this guide without purchasing the notes.

Wael is the god of secrets, revelations, illusions, cryptography, obfuscation, perception, dreams, and visions. Their followers are a mystery even to each other, reveling in acts of creating and unraveling mysteries.

Eyes of the Obscured (Base)

You can loot the Eyes of the Obscured from the Shrine to Wael in the southwest corner of the Ancient Lakebed. Follow the path of the pink rock formations and you’ll end up at the shrine.

The Eyes of the Obscured is the base of Wael’s Totem, so you’ll need to pick it up before you can assemble any of the other pieces at your camp and begin benefitting from the buffs.

Ruby Eye

The Ruby Eye is also located at the Shrine to Wael, accessible by following a different tunnel out of the main chamber. You’ll need to have a conversation with the Ward of the Eye who will give you the Ruby Eye.

Agate Eye

You can find the Agate Eye near the entrance to the Sand Sea Ruins of the Great Sand Sea. It’s one level up from the door to booby trap land and the quest “Heart of Valor“.

Amethyst Eye

You can find the Amethyst Eye on the ground under an overhang on the eastern edge of the Ancient Lakebed, south of Scaedclef.

Emerald Eye

You can find the Emerald Eye next to some treasure on an unfinished monument near the Pargrun Cache in Shark’s Teeth. From the Adra, head southeast along the wall.

Sapphire Eye

You can find the Sapphire Eye in a sarcophagus at the bottom of the Sand Sea Oasis on the eastern edge of the Great Sand Sea next to a corpse wearing the Trickster’s Gloves.

Topaz Eye

You can loot the Topaz Eye from a table near one of the corpses from the citizen’s militia that Temerti asked you to find in the Leviathan’s Hollow on the Deadfall Highlands.

Wael’s Totem Buffs

Wael’s Eyes of the Obscured are essential for any Wizard build. You can benefit greatly from Magic in the Blood and Enigmatic Shield since you’ll be recovering Essence and using high-level spells frequently.
