All Scouting Tower locations
There are 11 Scouting Towers in The Blood of Dawnwalker. Once you’re done with the prologue, you should be able to explore at your leisure. Here’s what you need to know:
Scouting Towers can only be climbed when it’s nighttime. That’s because you need vampiric powers like Shadowstep and Planeshift to reach ledges and walk on walls.
Upon climbing to the top of a tower, survey the landscape by pressing the button prompt on each spot. Doing so makes activities, locations, and points-of-interest appear on the world map.
Don’t forget to loot any nearby containers while you’re at it. Most of these structures have manuals that allow you to learn new skills.
Note: Scouting Towers do not cause time to progress. Because of this, we recommend prioritizing this activity as soon as you’re able to. If you’re up for it, you can actually tag all the towers in a single evening.
These maps of the northern (left) and southern (right) sections of Vale Sangora show the locations of the Scouting Towers.
Tower 1: Church Tower
Location: It’s the very church where the Blood Mass took place during the prologue. Climb it once you’re able to use your vampiric traversal abilities.
Reward: Aether Flow Manual
Don’t forget to climb the church in your home village.
Tower 2: Briar Sloughs Tower
Location: Head south upon exiting Laslea Glen. It’s near the river and across from it is a Pilgrimage for Power – Sacred Stone.
Reward: Amalgam Manual
Tower 3: Maragir Wealds Tower
Location: This Scouting Tower in The Blood of Dawnwalker is in the easternmost edge of the Maragir Wealds region. There’s a Vidmo specter inside the structure, so be ready to defeat it.
Reward: Blasphemous Echo Manual
Tower 4: Boar’s Back Tower
Location: West of Svartrau City in an area called Shrike’s Crag.
Reward: Potent Blood Manual and Duelist’s Pendant (epic amulet).
These are the towers in Briar Sloughs (left), Maragir Wealds (middle), and Boar’s Back (right).
Tower 5: Neustadt Tower
Location: This is the first of several Blood of Dawnwalker Scouting Towers in the capital. Go up the battlements in the southwestern part of the city. Before the guards turn hostile as you’re trespassing, Shadowstep on the rooftop.
Reward: N/A
Tower 6: Market Tower
Location: This one is in the north-central part of the city.
Reward: N/A
Tower 7: Cathedral Tower
Location: Your goal is to head to the massive cathedral that dominates most of the city proper. Climb up the scaffolding, then continue to the rooftop. You should then see a prompt to teleport/fly all the way to the cross.
Reward: N/A
These are the towers that you need to climb in Svartrau City. They’re in Neustadt (left), Altenmarkt (middle), and the Cathedral Complex (right).
Tower 8: St. Tyna’s Grove Tower
Location: Between one of Ambrus’ outposts and an Ancient Circle. There are several Undead enemies outside, but you can avoid them if you scale the rock formations, before Shadowstepping onto the tower.
Reward: Forbidden Sigils Manual
Tower 9: Tantari Tower
Location: Northwest of Tantari Woods. Cast Shadowstep on the wooden boards, then Planeshift on the walls so you can make your way to the top.
Reward: Lasting Medication Manual
Tower 10: Rockfalls Tower
Location: Due south of the abandoned village of Oghasti and west of the Lunar Manor. You won’t have enough stamina to Planeshift walk on the outer walls. Instead, you must head inside and use Shadowstep as you go from one wooden board to the next.
Reward: Blasphemous Echo Manual
These are the towers in St. Tyna’s Grove (left), Tantari (middle), and Rockfalls/Oghasti (right).
Tower 11: Silts Tower/Aurelius Tower
Location: This Scouting Tower in The Blood of Dawnwalker is fairly unique. That’s because something “out of this world” occurs if you attempt to interrupt the malevolent ritual. We don’t want to spoil all the details. However, if you just want to grab the reward, you can walk along the outer walls and ledges. Eventually, you should be able to reach the roof, where you can drop back down to a balcony with a chest.
Rewards: Unnatural Resilience Manual
A cool surprise awaits you in the Silts Tower.
That does it for our guide on where to find all Scouting Towers in The Blood of Dawnwalker. After tagging these structures, all sorts of points-of-interest should get marked on the world map and the only thing left to do is visit them. These locations include Sacred Stones, Ancient Circles, and Haunted Sites.
