Acquisition

You can obtain the Executioner of Darkness set from different treasure chests, mostly along the coastal border between Demeniss and Delesyia.

Executioner of Darkness Helmet Location

You can loot the Executioner of Darkness Plate Helm from a treasure chest behind some flammable vines at Marni’s Outpost in the Gorthak region of Delesyia.

Executioner of Darkness Chestpiece Location

You receive the Executioner of Darkness’ Leather Armor from Countess Azerian at Azerian Manor in Demeniss as part of the Epilogue: Journey’s End.

The chestpiece from this set was not obtainable until Patch 1.13. If you’ve already completed the Epilogue, you should have the item in your Private Storage.

Executioner of Darkness Cloak Location

You can loot the Execuctioner of Darkness Plate Cloak from a treasure chest east from Three Brothers’ Cliff Shiprwreck in southwestern Delesyia.

Executioner of Darkness Gloves Location

You can loot the Executioner of Darkness Plate Gloves from a treasure chest in a cavern off the coast of Bowspirit Cape in southeastern Demeniss.

Executioner of Darkness Boots Location

You can loot the Executioner of Darkness Plate Boots from a treasure chest in the cliffside below the Abandoned Hushwind Cabin along the Delesyian west coast.

Royal Oath Location

You can find the Royal Oath resting up against a corner of the half-wall surrounding the upper sarcophagus in the Royal Tomb east of the capital city in Demeniss. You probably won’t be able to get it until you complete the Greymane Construction Mission Dispatch there.

We consider this sword to be part of the set because both are directly affiliated with the ruling house of Demeniss.

Demenissian Gold-Decorated Shield Location

The Demenissian Gold-Decorated Shield is part of Damiane’s starting equipment, so you’ll find it in the purple Shields category in your inventory.

Matching Weapons and Accessories

These weapons and accessories are not officially related to the Executioner of Darkness set, but they match it

Arben Greatsword Location

You can find the Arben Greatsword resting against the wall next to some treasure at the Horseshoe Lake Burrow beneath the bramble-covered island at the Horseshoe Lake that serves as a border between Demeniss and Delesyia.

Leofric Musket Location

You receive the Leofric Musket in Delesyia for completing Chapter X: Counterattack.

Relic of Darkness Location

You can steal the Relic of Darkness from a puzzle strongbox in a secret passage behind a bookshelf in an unmarked manor in the Eastern Hills of Delesyia.

You’ll need to solve a lockpicking-style puzzle to unlock the strongbox by spinning each wheel the correct number of times to align the metal seam with the bottom edge of the painting. From left to right, it each wheel takes 6 → 5 → 4 → 3 → 2 turns.

Mark of Darkness Location

You can steal the Mark of Darkness from a puzzle strongbox at Windmere Manor in northwestern Demeniss. To open the strongbox, you have to move the pieces to make a picture of a breaching whale.

Seal of Pitch-Black Darkness Location

You receive the Seal of Pitch-Black Darkness for defeating Ator, Archon of Antumbra, at the Cloister of Ruination in northwestern Pailune after defeating all of Antumbra’s weapons at each Sanctum.
