Sanctum of Absolution is a Sanctum and Exploration Challenge in Crimson Desert.

Sanctum of Absolution Location

Sanctum of Absolution is a Sanctum in the Hernand region of the game. Located in the south in the Mountain of Frozen Souls:

Sanctum of Absolution Solution

Requirement: Listen to the Request from Witch of Wisdom – Elowen – see Witch Locations.

Step 1: Approach the sanctum from the East side of the sanctum where the Abyss Nexus is. This sanctum is overrun with Antumbra enemies. Make your way up the steps of the sanctum defeating enemies. Once you reach the top landing you will encounter Antumbra’s Sword, a challenging boss fight. Dodge his magic attacks while countering the normal attacks and attack when there is an opening. Once you finish defeating Antumbra’s Sword continue to defeat enemies around the sanctum until you have defeated enough enemies to have fully liberated the sanctum.

Step 2: Once the sanctum is liberated head back into the building and in the hallway drop down to the floor below and outside. You will find the sanctum device here. Head back into the doorway to the North and look immediately to the left (be careful of the fire shooting out toward you once inside). Inside that doorway is the pillar piece:

Step 3: Grab the piece of pillar and bring it outside. Place it above the broken pillar and line it up so that leaves start swirling around it:

Climb up and jump and use Force Palm (jump and R3 / Mouse Wheel). If in the correct spot it will be forced into place. Once in place it will have electricity emitting through it.

Step 4: Head back inside and climb back up through the hole in the ceiling back into the hallway and walk down until you get to the spot where there are a lot of jars piled up. Destroy the jars until you reveal the block:

Step 5: Use Axiom Force (hold L3) to grab the block and walk it outside to the mechanism out back. Once you bring it to the mechanism locate the hole in the East side of the sanctum and line up the block with the hole. Once it is lined up properly leaves will start surrounding the block, use Force Current:

Step 6: Once power is restored make sure to stand in the square light to speak to Elowen.
