Island's Edge World Tendency Events

White World

Satsuki in human form appears at the entrance looking for the Magic Sword "Makoto".

  • If you find the Magic Sword "Makoto" and give it to Satsuki, he will attack you. After you've killed him, he will drop the sword for you to pick up.
  • If you find the Magic Sword "Makoto" and decided not to give it to Satsuki, he will attack you.
  • If you find the Magic Sword "Makoto" and have it equipped, when you talk to Satsuki, he will attack you.
  • Remember that killing Satsuki shifts World Tendency by -3, so do this as your last White World Tendency action before driving Island's Edge towards Black.

Shrine of Storms (Island's Edge) can be accessed by interacting with the Archstone of the Shadowmen in The Nexus. When you first arrive at the Shrine of Storms, move forward to be greeted by the first enemy, a Silver Skeleton. Keep going through the archway, once past it, turn left to loot x5 Half Moon Grass from a body. Now keep going until you reach the stairs, another Silver Skeleton will attack you.

silver-skeletons-by-the-stone-steps-islands-edge-demons-souls-wiki-guide-min

A little further, there are two Silver Skeletons, one carrying a falchion and another one using a bow. Try to lure the melee one away, and fight it and then take care of the Skeleton bow. Again at the top of the stairs, you will find two Silver Skeletons. Always try to lure one skeleton at a time. Once you have dealt with both of them, continue forward to the fog door.

talisman-of-god-location-islands-edge-demons-souls-wiki-guide-min

Up in the building, there are two more Silver Skeletons, shooting arrows from there. After taking care of them, you can loot the corpses around the area. You can obtain x1 Renowned Hero Soul. You can obtain x3 Soldier's Lotus from the body amongst the debris. Turn around and go to the right of the area, there's another body, behind a tree, that has x1 Talisman of God. Now head straight to the fog door.

Through the Fog Door

arrows-trap-corridor-islands-edge-demons-souls-wiki-guide-min

Immediately turn left, to go through a narrow corridor. Beware of the middle of it, there's a switch on the ground that activates an arrow trap. Stick to the wall to avoid it. Turn left and head outside again. On your left side, there's a Black Skeleton.

black-skeleton-encounter-islands-edge-demons-souls-wiki-guide-min

If you stick to your right, you shouldn't be spotted. Walk slowly and you will arrive at a corpse containing x6 Soul Remains. After disposing of the Black Skeleton, behind it, you can loot a Crescent Falchion +1. Now go back to the previous building.

silver-skeletons-encounter-top-section-islands-edge-demons-souls-wiki-guide-min

Head up the stairs. Turn right and face a Silver Skeleton. Keep running through the corridor until you reach a crumbled tower with stairs leading down. Head down the stairs, walk carefully at the bottom to avoid the floor trap in the middle of the ground. Loot the body next to the steel gate to obtain x1 Copper Key. See Point H in Map 1. copper-key-location-islands-edge-demons-souls-wiki-guide-min

Note: If playing online, at the top of the stairs for this tower you may see a message instructing you to roll over the wall. If you do so, you can grab a Regenerator's Ring from the corpse outside the wall, as well as access to an area with a Crystal Lizard. Unfortunately, doing so will leave you stuck in an area of the map where your only option is to proceed to the Boss fight. This area can be safely accessed through normal progression later.

Sparkly the Crow

Now head left. If you have a ranged weapon or a spell, try to take the Silver Skeleton archer from that position. Go down the broken path towards the narrow corridor. Turn left, immediately a Silver Skeleton will rush towards you. Once you are done with it, be ready to face another Silver Skeleton once you emerge out of the corridor, it comes from your right side.

Go upstairs, and take the left way. Keep going and you will arrive at the place where the Silver Skeleton archer was shooting you from. There's a corpse there containing x1 Compound Long Bow and x13 Light Arrow.

Return to the Tower

illusory-wall-islands-edge-demons-souls-wiki-guide-min

Go back again to the tower, this time head downwards. Take the stairs to the left, even though it appears that there's no door, hit it with your weapon and it will open. See Point B on Map 2. Head through the narrow corridor, turn right then keep going and left. At the next crossroad, you will be ambushed by two Silver Skeletons, one from each side. Retreat if necessary to engage them one by one.

Go back to the crossroad again, this time take the other path. There's another illusory wall at the end, hit it to make it disappear. There's an unavoidable switch on the floor that triggers a trap, that shoots you three arrows. Equip a shield to mitigate as much damage as possible.

second-fog-door-islands-edge-demons-souls-wiki-guide-min

Head back to the second fog door and go through it. Go up the stairs. You will find two Silver Skeleton. One Melee and one with a bow. Again, try to take them separately.

Keep going along the corridor, take the narrow path on the right, and then turn right again to find another corpse. This one contains x1 Renowned Hero Soul. If you have spells or ranged weapons to take down the Storm Beasts, that will make traversing the area much easier.

Go down and take the narrow path along the cliff. You will find a Gold Skeleton. Dispatch it and keep going through the corridor. You will find another Gold Skeleton. After this one, the path becomes really narrow and you will find a third Gold Skeleton on the other side.

gold-skeleton-encounter-islands-edge-demons-souls-remake-wiki-guide-min

Trying to fight it there is not a good idea, try to lure the skeleton using a ranged weapon or a spell, so it goes to your position. Once done, keep going and you will find a third fog door. Go through it. Take the stairs in front of you, and loot a corpse that has x3 Late Moon Grass on it.

graverobbers-ring-location-islands-edge-demons-souls-remake-wiki-guide-min

      what's a good way to consistently shoot the birds hovering around Sparky's nest? those birbs drop fancy arrows

      • This dude is so easy, I have 22 Magic, Monk's Head Wrappings, and the Silver Catalyst and I needed 2 Fresh Spices to kill him with soul arrow only by running around counter-clockwise pinging him after every attack

          I gotta say, the remake's rendition is a perfect upgrade of the original's very simple set designs. In fact, most maps do a great job—I just don't understand why they felt the need to add comically unrealistic architectural motifs all throughout the Boletarian Palace, but whatever.

          This map impresses me the most, though. It feels like a true 1:1 makeover, with just the right amount of decorative props. It feels so tangible!

            How do you get the item below the narrow cliffside path (on the rock beside a dead tree)? The fall looks manageable but it always results in death for me.

              Guys, I broke my game. I managed to hit pure black before I beat adjudicator and can't get past the phantom. Even worse I'm running a magic build so I can't backstab. Am I ever going to get past this guy?

                If you follow this guide don't roll to get the regerator ring. You will either have to fight the boss or teleport out.
