Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Start the Quest: After completing the main quest in Necropolis Halls, return to the Halls. Go to the northwest area, the Chamber of the Unforged, and defeat the attacking Venatori.

  2. 2
    Hunt Demons:
  3. 3
    Hossberg Wetlands Demon: Travel to Solitude's Edge in the central south of the region. Clear out any Darkspawn, then investigate the green-flamed brazier to spawn a lesser version of The Formless One. This Demon has a large barrier, a large health pool, and summons Shades. It is vulnerable to Shock. Companions like Bellara are recommended. Watch out for its arm spin attack and tracking magical orbs.
  4. 4
    Dock Town Demon: Teleport to the Spillway Beacon in the southeast of Dock Town. Head south to the open area and interact with the green flame to spawn another version of The Formless One. This Demon uses shock-based AoEs and Shockwaves. It is weak to Necrosis. Companions like Lucanis and Emmerich are recommended. Avoid the AoE circles and Shockwaves.
  5. 5
    Arlathan Forest Demon: Make your way to the Nameless Building in the west of Arlathan Forest. Follow the path west to find the final green-flamed brazier. This version of The Formless One uses Fire attacks and is vulnerable to Cold. Companion Neve is recommended. Dodge its multiple charge attacks and the Fiery Rings it releases.
  6. 6
    Return to Necropolis Halls: After defeating all three Demons, return to the Necropolis Halls. Prepare for the final boss fight against The Formless One in its Dragon form. It is recommended to be close to Level 40.
Tips
  • The Formless One's Dragon form is fought in a large arena, which is advantageous.
  • The Dragon form is vulnerable to Necrosis. Lucanis and Emmerich are good companion choices.
  • Disengage Lock-On for the Dragon fight due to its size.
  • Target the glowing legs as temporary weak points.
  • Dodge its telegraphed stomps, bites, and tail swipes.
  • When The Formless One retreats to the back, it will shoot lightning bolts; keep running in one direction to avoid them.
  • Watch out for its divebomb attack; dodge when it gets close to create an opening for counters.
  • If a large red circle appears around you, dash away immediately to avoid the massive damage from the Ground Pound.
  • The specific rewards for completing the Pinnacle of its Kind quest are not detailed in the source text, but typically include experience points, gold, and potentially unique gear or crafting materials.
