Follow this guide to complete the Red Idol quest in Outward. Learn how to take the idol to the Scarlet Lady's altar and claim your reward.

Alright, so you've got the Red Idol and you're thinking about what to do with it. If you've decided to take it to the altar of the Scarlet Lady, here's what you need to do.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, head south from where you found the idol. You'll be looking for an iron door that leads you into another fire region. Go through it.
  2. 2
    Keep heading south. You'll eventually reach a point where the path splits. Take the turn to the west.
  3. 3
    Be prepared for a fight here! You're going to run into some Obsidian Elementals. Make sure you've got an ice rag or varnish ready to go, and keep an eye on your water supply to clear off any burning effects they might inflict.
  4. 4
    Once you've dealt with the elementals, you'll find the altar of the Scarlet Lady. Simply place the idol on the pedestal in front of the statue.
  5. 5
    After you've placed the idol, you'll be able to grab the Red Lady's Dagger from a stone platform right in front of the statue.
  • Red Lady's Dagger
Tips
  • Obsidian Elementals are weak to ice. Using an ice rag or applying ice varnish to your weapon will significantly increase your damage output.
  • Having a good supply of water is crucial in fire regions, not just for fighting elementals but also for general survival against the environment.
