Mysterious Altar

New World Mysterious Altar Location

The Altar is located deep in the swamp of Fisher's Glory. If starting from the wooden gateway in the north, go on the path with the wooden encampment on the left and keep going down. Gamers will know they are in the right area when they are in the swamp at the bottom of the hill with a blue glowing light coming from a mossy clump.

Be sure to clear the enemies from the area as quickly as possible before placing the offering, since they will make the next phase harder than it already is.

Dyrad's Trial of Penance

Once the offering is placed, the Dryad's Trial of Penance will begin and players will have to defeat all the different enemies that will spawn. The enemies will be ranging from level 59 to 61, The list of enemies includes the Earthward Detonator, Sunderer, Elder, Stalker, a Swamp Dryad Creeper, and lastly the massive Sufferance of the Elders creature. It is suggested that players use ranged weapons in New World as much as possible since most of the enemies use close combat, just watch out for projectiles that can cause poison damage.

Once that is finished, go back to the settlement and talk to Madilon to complete the quest. The reward for finishing this is the Journeyman's Treads armor piece in New World, 3,750 XP, and 157.50 coins.
