How to access the Crown of the Ivory King Dark Souls 2 DLC
If you've conquered the land of Drangleic several times over--or even if you just want to revisit an old, masochistic friend--🙈then you're in luck. Dark Souls 2's third and final DLC pack, Crown of the Ivory King, is available now. New areas, bosses, enemies, and items await you in this new zone.
But how do you access this cool new place? I mean, the first Dark Souls' Artorias of the Abys꧒s expansion required a complicated series of item finding and b𝐆acktracking. Getting into Crown of the Ivory King isn't complicated, though it will take a bit of playtime. Here's how to do it:
- Download the DLC (duh) to place a Frozen Feather in your inventory
- Defeat The Lost Sinner, Old Iron King, The Duke's Dear Freja, and The Rotten (if you've already done this, great!)
- Wiꦫth the four Old Souls in your possession, you can open the Shrine of Winter en route to Drangleic castle
- Examine the pedestal𝄹 in the shrine to be teleport🌳ed to a new area
And that's it. Prepare to die!
