Volcano Manor is a legacy dungeon located on Mt. Gelmir.
Overview[]
Map of Volcano Manor
The Volcano Manor is home to the recusants of Praetor Rykard, fierce warriors who wage war against the Erdtree and the Roundtable. The recusants are led by Rykard's consort, Lady Tanith. Powerful Tarnished are extended invitations to join the Volcano Manor and are given contracts to hunt other Tarnished in service of the Roundtable. Tarnished who prove themselves are offered an audience with Praetor Rykard himself, which will inevitably end with the serpentine demigod devouring them, making them forever a part of his "family".
The Volcano Manor is besieged by the forces of the Royal Capital.
Walkthrough[]
The Volcano Manor is one of the game's most complex locations. It can be reached in multiple ways and you can progress through from different directions.
The fastest, but most gimmicky way to reach it is by letting the Abductor Virgin at the bottom of the Raya Lucaria Academy grapple you to death. You will still drop your runes, but be respawned right within the Volcano Manor area. From here there are two paths that are each a point of no return. One leading to the rest of the manor, the other brings you to the Abductor Virgin duo bossfight and back to the Altus Plateau. For the Abductor Virgin boss, search for the cave with multiple drop-down platforms. To progress deeper into the manor, jump down the lava waterfall. If you die here before reaching a grace, you will be respawned where the Abductor Virgin dropped you within Volcano Manor. From here you can explore the area, defeat the Godskin Noble and either make it back to the manor entrance with Lady Tanith and the other npcs, or skip their quests and head straight to the gateway portal leading to Praetor Rykard.
The regular paths to enter the manor are either on foot/horseback across Mt. Gelmir, or to be teleported right to the Volcano Manor entrance grace by Rya once reaching the Altus Plateau. You won't be able to reach the bosses or explore the rest of the area from here unless you accept Lady Tanith's offer to get the Drawing-Room Key. If you join the manor, a list of NPCs become available there: Bernahl, Patches, Rya, Diallos Hoslow. To get all the content out of the manor, you have to wait with fighting Rykard until reaching the Mountaintops of the Giants, so that you can do all of the following NPC invasions for the manor: Old Knight Istvan, Rileigh the Idle, Great Horned Tragoth, Vargram the Raging Wolf + Errant Sorcerer Wilhelm, Juno Hoslow, Knight of Blood. After defeating Juno Hoslow, Tanith offers to send you to Rykard, where you can then start the boss fight. Remember to complete Rya's quest before defeating Juno Hoslow, Knight of Blood, otherwise you'll be locked out of Tanith's dialogue regarding Rya.
