| name = Dzemael Darkhold
Dzemael Darkhold is a level 44 - 46 [[dungeons|dungeon]] located in [[Coerthas Central Highlands]]. It requires a light party of 4 players. Players can unlock Dzemael Darkhold by talking to Carrilaut in Observatorium of [[Coerthas Central Highlands]] (x24,y28). The quest is called [[Fort of Fear]]. Players can also unlock the dungeon at level 44 or higher, rank up to Sergeant First Class in your [[Grand Company]], then speak to the commander of your Grand Company.
| description = Seeking to utilize an existing labyrinth of natural caves, the Ishgardian house of Dzemael began construction of their eponymous Darkhold near the end of the Sixth Astral Era, intending it to serve as a refuge for those fleeing the flames of the Dravanian Horde. When the house's digging uncovered an entrance to the void, allowing an army of voidsent into this realm, however, they immediately abandoned their plans and withdrew from the subterrane, sealing it off so that they might contain the otherworldly invaders within. Despite all this, the house is unwilling to relinquish its claim to the caves, and believes that if they can be cleared of voidsent, they might still be able to see their original plan brought to fruition.

*Players are awarded with 30 [[Level 50 Gear Guide|Tomestones of Philosophy]] for completing Dzemael Darkhold.
==Walkthrough==
*In the first section of the dungeon, to avoid high damage of the untelegraphed '''Eyes on Me''' AoE from the roaming '''[[All-seeing Eye]]''' (ahriman), stand on the purple ground near the glowing crystals to receive the [[File:Crystal veil icon1.png|link=]] '''Crystal Veil''' buff, which will reduce damage taken by 90%.
**This buff also enables one to pull all enemies in the first section of the dungeon to the room before the first boss, without much risk.
*In the second and third sections, the orange corrupted crystals will occasionally pulse telegraphed point-blank AoEs that should be avoided.
*Stand in blue Magitek circles until the countdown is completed to open doors. Some of them will be within range of the orange crystal AoEs, so heal through the damage. Having more people in the timers makes them faster, but with diminishing returns--they take 20 seconds with one person, 10s with two or three, and 7.5 with four.

Seeking to utilize an existing labyrinth of natural caves, Count Tarresson of House Dzemael ordered the construction of the Darkhold near the end of the Sixth Astral Era, intending it to serve as a refuge for those fleeing the flames of the Dravanian Horde. When the house's digging uncovered an entrance to the void, allowing an army of voidsent into this realm, however, they were forced to withdraw from the subterrane and suspend their plans. To add insult to injury, imperial troops exploited the confusion to take up positions within the caves.
 
In a bid to liberate the Darkhold, a young Artorel de Fortemps assembled his knights at the hamlet of Owl's Nest. Bolstered by the presence of capable adventurers, they succeeded in removing the Garleans, earning the future lord of House Fortemps considerable renown. The voidsent, however, proved considerably more difficult to purge, and after some years at a standstill, the call went out once more for brave souls who might aid in reclaiming the caves once and for all.

In the course of the Darkhold's construction, the workers of House Dzemael uncovered solid, to their sheer horror, what turned out to be a full gargoyle. A type of voidsent that manifests in the Source by merging its essence with stone, the creature is believed to have occupied a position of power amongst its kind, as indicated by the pair of massive blades it brandished. In gargoyle society, such as we understand it, size does appear to matter.
 
Himself a student of architecture, Count Tarresson de Dzemael had hoped to minimize the cost of building a fortress by taking advantage of a natural cave system. The myriad troubles that beset the Darkhold's construction, however, led to his renouncing his title—under pressure from his sons, if the whisperings amongst Ishgardian nobility are to be believed.

Seeking to utilize an existing labyrinth of natural caves, the Ishgardian house of Dzemael began construction of their eponymous Darkhold near the end of the Sixth Astral Era, intending it to serve as a refuge for those fleeing the flames of the Dravanian Horde. When the house's digging uncovered an entrance to the void, allowing an army of voidsent into this realm, however, they immediately abandoned their plans and withdrew from the subterrane, sealing it off so that they might contain the otherworldly invaders within. Despite all this, the house is unwilling to relinquish its claim to the caves, and believes that if they can be cleared of voidsent, they might still be able to see their original plan brought to fruition.

— In-game description

Dzemael Darkhold is a level 44 dungeon introduced in patch 2.0. The map layout was overhauled in patch 6.1.

Objectives

  1. Open the Grand Hall gate: 0/1
  2. Clear the Feasting Hall: 0/1
  3. Deactivate the level IV magitek field: 0/1
  4. Defeat Batraal: 0/1

Walkthrough

  • In the first section of the dungeon, to avoid high damage of the untelegraphed Eyes on Me AoE from the roaming All-seeing Eye (ahriman), stand on the purple ground near the glowing crystals to receive the Crystal veil icon1.png Crystal Veil buff, which will reduce damage taken by 90%.
    • This buff also enables one to pull all enemies in the first section of the dungeon to the room before the first boss, without much risk.
  • In the second and third sections, the orange corrupted crystals will occasionally pulse telegraphed point-blank AoEs that should be avoided.
  • Stand in blue Magitek circles until the countdown is completed to open doors. Some of them will be within range of the orange crystal AoEs, so heal through the damage. Having more people in the timers makes them faster, but with diminishing returns--they take 20 seconds with one person, 10s with two or three, and 7.5 with four.

The Count's Ambition

Seeking to utilize an existing labyrinth of natural caves, Count Tarresson of House Dzemael ordered the construction of the Darkhold near the end of the Sixth Astral Era, intending it to serve as a refuge for those fleeing the flames of the Dravanian Horde. When the house's digging uncovered an entrance to the void, allowing an army of voidsent into this realm, however, they were forced to withdraw from the subterrane and suspend their plans. To add insult to injury, imperial troops exploited the confusion to take up positions within the caves.

In a bid to liberate the Darkhold, a young Artorel de Fortemps assembled his knights at the hamlet of Owl's Nest. Bolstered by the presence of capable adventurers, they succeeded in removing the Garleans, earning the future lord of House Fortemps considerable renown. The voidsent, however, proved considerably more difficult to purge, and after some years at a standstill, the call went out once more for brave souls who might aid in reclaiming the caves once and for all.

All-seeing Eye

An immense ahriman whose menacing eye seems to strip barethe essence of things. With but a mere gaze it can call down a curse upon its enemies, while its robust wards stymie the efforts of archers, sending their arrows skittering harmlessly away.

Batraal

In the course of the Darkhold's construction, the workers of House Dzemael uncovered solid, to their sheer horror, what turned out to be a full gargoyle. A type of voidsent that manifests in the Source by merging its essence with stone, the creature is believed to have occupied a position of power amongst its kind, as indicated by the pair of massive blades it brandished. In gargoyle society, such as we understand it, size does appear to matter.

Himself a student of architecture, Count Tarresson de Dzemael had hoped to minimize the cost of building a fortress by taking advantage of a natural cave system. The myriad troubles that beset the Darkhold's construction, however, led to his renouncing his title—under pressure from his sons, if the whisperings amongst Ishgardian nobility are to be believed.
