Animated guardian

Terracotta Warrior

Terracotta warriors are clay-like guardians found among the valley's ancient secrets. The glossary describes one awakening to attack an intruder. Whether these beings contain humans or are animated statues remains unanswered.

Clay warriors in the ruins beneath St. Tyna’s Grove

Terracotta Warriors are the animated clay guardians of Vale Sangora’s ancient ruins. Clay Warrior is another name used for these enemies during Anca’s Stronger Than Achilles quest. Their bodies resemble statues, but they awaken to attack intruders.

Continue Anca’s search for the Font of Life through Where Old Devils Lie, then return to her during the day for Stronger Than Achilles. The route through the ruins includes undead fighters, teleporting Vidmo and the Forgotten Warrior before the later trial chamber. Prepare for several encounters on the way to the Font.

At the trial chamber, inspect the tablet beside the central pillar and use Astral Communion to begin. This starts a succession of enemy waves. Keep your back near a wall to reduce attacks from behind, and use your sword art when an opening lets you land it safely. Finish the waves to continue into the Font of Life chamber.

After the trial, inspect the Font chamber and open the two chests at the back before leaving with Anca. The chamber includes a Soul Stigma Manual and Band of Persistence. These are chest finds beyond the trial, so look around the room after the fighting ends.
