Blue Chamber Collective

Guide to joining the Blue Chamber Collective in Outward 2. Learn about faction quests, rewards like +40 max health and unique armor, and crucial timed missions.

You join the faction in the Enmerkar Forest location, city of Berg.

Be aware that once you join this faction or any other faction - a countdown to destruction of Cierzo begins, you have around 20-30 days to save it by getting rid of 3 warlords in Chersonese Vendavel Fortress. (You can accept the quest by going into Cierzo)

Main faction rewards are: +40 max health passive, +25 max mana passive OR a lantern of souls (infinite lantern), and a unique faction armor set (Heavy armor set with big frost resist and frost damage boost).

Before you join the faction, you have to complete 1 of 3 small quests: have mana unlocked, show a weapon enchantment rag, or show a fang weapon. The rag is easiest if you miss the fang weapon and mana unlock.

Once you complete one of the tasks, talk with Rissa to become a member. This also nets you a Cierzo Town Key. If it's not your first playthrough, you can loot one of your items from a Legacy Chest in Cierzo.

After joining the Blue Chamber Collective, wait 3 days for your first faction quest, Mixed Legacies.

Rissa will send you to Cierzo to accept the OPTIONAL but highly important timed quest Vendavel. If you don't complete this quest, Cierzo will be destroyed.

After preliminaries, return to Berg and speak with Rissa again. Then go to the Blue Chamber building and speak with her. She sends you to Berg Inn. Upon leaving, an explosion occurs, and you must return to find Rissa and Baltazar.

In the Blue Chamber Collective, go through the door into the necropolis and then down the ladder into the ancestral's resting place. Here you will find the dead Baltazar and a hint to Rissa's location.

Optional objective: Kill the leader of the assassins. Head towards the Cabal of Wind temple; he will be in the middle of the road with his tent. Lure nearby monsters onto him to help defeat him.

Rissa is in a Bandit camp south of Enmerkar Forest near a burning tree. Rescue her and another person who gives you 100 silver.

Return to Berg and talk with Rissa. If you completed the optional objective, you can tell her you found the assassin leader.

Wait 3 days for the next quest, Ash Giants.

The goal is to make ash giants your allies. Go to the Hallowed Marsh into the Giants City and talk with the leader, Highlord Cyr.

He will send you to the Reptilian Lair, the 'huge tree' on the Hallowed Marsh map.

Optional objectives:

• Speak with Golden Belly, a merchant, who will tell you about giant culture and a book about it in old giant ruins south of Giant City. The ruins contain a locked door opened with jewels and the book. Reading the book adds dialogue options for negotiations.
• In Monsoon City, speak to the cardinal in the temple for information.
• Obtain a giant heart, which sometimes drops from giant enemies or can be found in the Blister Burrows of Chersonese. (This is not needed if you complete the other two optionals).

Proceed to the Reptilian Lair. Near Alpha Tuanosaur (a glowing red tuanosaur), grab the root needed and exit.

Return to Giant City and present the root. If you completed all optionals, negotiations are easy.

Successful negotiations grant a +40 HP passive and a giant greataxe.

Return to Berg and talk with Rissa to finish the quest.

Wait 3 more days for the quest Whispering Bones.

Rissa sends you to Conflux Mountain Blue Chamber path to find Roland. This is a good time to unlock mana if you haven't already. Roland is near an Assassin Mantis in the 'labyrinth' part of the dungeon.

NB: When talking with Roland, choose positive-sounding options to improve the quest outcome.

Find your way to the heart of Conflux Mountain. Near where you acquire mana, you will find Roland again. He wants you to find something in a starfish cave on the east side of Chersonese beach.
