Dungeon - The War Within
Priory of the Sacred Flame
3 encounters, 28 boss abilities and 23 drops, with the Adventure Guide’s own ability and strategy notes for each fight. Every drop links to its item page; tradeable drops carry a live Auction House price.
The Priory of the Sacred Flame was built for ardent worshipers to contemplate the mystery of the emperor's vision. The acolytes have become withdrawn from the people of Mereldar, looking down upon them with disdain for their weak faith. Sister Etna Blayze has called for help to investigate what secrets lay hidden in the inner sanctum of Prioress Murrpray.
