No Rest For The Wicked may be compact in size, but it delivers a rich gaming experience. With soulslike combat, diverse player character upgrades, and stunning environments, the game immerses players in its world.

Scattered across Sacra island are Fallen Embers, a perplexing resource in the game. Initially seemingly useless, these materials play a crucial role in the endgame by aiding players in conquering the final dungeon.

Uncovering Fallen Embers in No Rest For The Wicked

Obtaining Fallen Embers is not a straightforward task. Similar to other loot items in the game, Fallen Embers are random drops that players can come across. These can be acquired as enemy drops or discovered in chests scattered throughout Sacra Island.

To gather Fallen Embers, players must explore the map thoroughly and revisit previous locations. Several spots on the island serve as reliable sources of these embers. Areas like Mariner's Keep, the Potion Seller's cave, or the Orban Glades are prime locations for farming Fallen Embers.

Maximizing Fallen Embers in No Rest For The Wicked

After completing the 'Of Rats and Raiders' quest by defeating Falstead Darak for the second time in the Black Trench, a new quest, 'Spoken and Unspoken,' commences.

• Visit the Stonemason's shop and follow the underground path to a chamber.
• Adhere to the NPC's instructions and perform a blood sacrifice to unlock a large door.

• Descend through the opened door to access the Crucible Chamber.
• Within this chamber, players can initiate their Crucible journey by offering a blood sacrifice alongside a Fallen Ember.
• Each attempt at the Crucible consumes one Fallen Ember.

The Crucible presents a significantly tougher dungeon than any other in the game released thus far, necessitating players to grind for levels. While most players reach this area around level 17, successfully clearing the Crucible demands further leveling up beyond natural progression.

Although theoretically feasible, conquering the Crucible requires exceptional skill, in-depth knowledge of enemies, and mastery of intricate mechanics like backstabbing and parrying. It's advisable to tackle the Crucible at level 21 or above to obtain better loot and stand a higher chance of success.
