Here you'll find a complete breakdown of this dungeon area, including all the monsters you'll encounter, treasure, and any other areas of interest. Here's everything you need to know.

How To Navigate The Manor Of The Ascendant

When you reach the first chamber, you'll notice a large platform towards the north of the room but at present it doesn't do anything.

Later on, once you activate them, these will become portals.

You need to follow the path around to the left, into the next chamber with the portal plinth, and then use the crawl space on your right to continue to the next area, where you can continue following the map around and up the ladder.

On the next map, you can head directly south and through a crawl space to reach another room with an item if you wish.

On the second floor, you want to head east across the thin platforms. There are a couple of optional items to grab here (mentioned below).

In the corridor heading north, you can use the crawl space on your left to reach a new area where a Gold Beetle is.

You can also head north and descend the ladder there to reach an item hidden on the first floor.

The way forward to progress is to take the crawlspace on your right and follow the path down to the most southern ladder on the map. After descending, grab the item immediately on your right, before following the path north towards another room with a (currently inactive portal).

Take the crawl space north into the next section and follow the path further north. Use the Move Contraption at the northern point of the room to enable all portal platforms in the dungeon.

You can now use the portals to easily return to other sections. Each portal in the north, east, south, and west has a matching pair in the center of the map, the closest one to it.

Each one will transport you to the other.

There is one additional portal in the center of the map, the most central portal, and this takes you to the third floor.

You want to take the most central portal (the lower of the two northern ones in the central room) to go to the third floor. You can head either right or left, as both lead to the same place. On the fourth floor, you want to take either of the southern paths to the fifth floor, however, don't miss out on the treasure chests.

On the fourth floor, go into the central chamber and take the crawl space south into the next room to where the two chests are. Claim your loot and then be on your way.

Once you've taken either of the southern paths up to the fifth floor, it's a straight shot to the room where Kokamordos Terror of the Skies awaits you.
