Dungeons:Howling Peaks

This page describes content that is a part of the Howling Peaks DLC.

“	TREK TO THE TOP — A strange power takes hold atop the perilous peaks, and a brave hero must rise to the summit to defeat it. The trek to the top has bold highs and lows, from dazzling new armour, weapons, and artifacts to vicious new foes. At the center of the storm is the Tempest Golem, which must be stopped to hush the howling winds.	„

Appearance[edit | edit source]

The Howling Peaks is a small island dominated by a large mountain with pathways trekking to the top; the summit of which, a sanctum was built atop it with a fancy temple. Beneath the summit lies an extension of the sanctum within the mountain. On the mountain side is a large wooden elevator shaft used for travel up the mountain. Around the mountain's base is a strongly fortified rampart, built to defend the mountain and the villages located by its snowy and autumn lands, which also compose the soil of the island, being filled with autumn leaves and small patches of trees.
