Rewards for completing the quest
- Unlocking the slot for enchanting - the new mechanics for the Sorcerer class are described down the page;
- Forgotten Codex - you will receive it after completing the quest as a gear (stats are random and depend on the character's level);
- XP and gold.
Unlocking the quest
You need to advance your Sorcerer or Sorceress to level 15. The quest will automatically appear in the Priority Quests tab.
You have to reach the area west of the village of Nevesk in the Fractured Peaks region. There you will encounter a stranger - the sorcerer Mordarin.
Retrieving the Codex
Mordarin will send you in search of The Forgotten Codex. You must therefore visit the Lost Archives to the east of the place where you met the sorcerer.
You don't have to complete the entire dungeon (i.e. defeat its main boss), just explore it enough to find the codex. It should be in one of the large chests (picture).
Return to Mordarin
You may now leave the dungeon and return to the sorcerer. After the conversation, enter the Abandoned Shack.
Defeating the demons
Reach the 4 cauldrons that can be lighted up. You don't have to use fire spells, just press the interaction button.
The battle with the demons will begin. Fight them until the red bar is full. Talk to the sorcerer for the last time to end the quest.
Putting the skill in the Enchantment slot
The reward for this quest is the first enchantment slot for the Sorcerer class. There you can put one of your abilities and get passive bonuses.
Open the skill tree and select Skill Assignment.
Choose any active ability you have. This can be a skill purchased with a skill point or unlocked by wearing gear.
Instead of assigning skills to the bottom bar, highlight the enchantment slot (picture) and confirm the choice. Initially, you have 1 enchantment slot. After advancing to level 30, you will unlock the second one.
You can read the passive enchantment bonuses in the skill descriptions. The same skill can be placed both in your active bar and in an enchantment slot.
