Darksiders II eGuide Walkthrough Court of Bones I: Phariseer

The Maw

Much more of the Dead King’s desolate realm lies beyond the bridge south of the Breach.

Northwest Ruin

Run directly south across the bridge that spans the chasm and enter the southern barrens known as the Maw. Two ruins stand just beyond the bridge; enter the northwest ruin (on the right) and slay a Skeleton as you follow the interior passage to claim a hidden Boatman Coin.

Boatman Coin 54

Backtrack a bit and scale a wall by vaulting from a peg to reach the hand hold high above it. Work your way up and around some wall growth to reach an exterior balcony. Claim the valuable scroll from within the far rooftop alcove.

Soul Arbiter's Sacred Scroll 3

Statue Tag

You can’t claim the two chests here until you rotate the lantern statue that stands atop the Breach’s southern entrance. But before you can do that, you must first spin the statue found within these ruins. Scale the wall near the scroll alcove and climb up to the roof above to find a lantern statue. Spin the statue 180 degrees so that its light shines north, toward the distant Breach stronghold.

If you like, you may now exit these ruins and backtrack over the bridge to reenter the Breach and rotate its statue 180 degrees as well. This will aim its beam of light back down south at these ruins, lowering the gate that blocks the nearby large chest, along with the two gates that block the pair of chests you noticed before. You’re also able to plunder a fourth chest during this process, which is found atop the Breach’s roof near its statue. Shoot the Stonebite on the wall near the Breach's final chest as well.

Stone of Resistance 3

Sentinel’s Gaze

Find a Boatman Coin hovering near the entry to this underground tomb. Head inside and run along the stairwell’s outer wall to reach a post. Slide all the way down to the bottom, then wall-run to the left to discover a chest.

Boatman Coin 55

Return to the wall post and climb it, then wall-run to the right and descend a stairwell to visit an underground barrack. Smash through the skeletal minions down here, and then pocket another Boatman Coin found in the grounds’ northeast corner.

Boatman Coin 56

Climb the nearby wall to reach the northeast lookout. Collect a Shadowbomb from the pod up here, and then drop down and use it to destroy the Corruption crystals in the alcove directly below. Claim valuables from the chest you discover within the alcove afterward, and destroy the weapon racks to obtain worthy gear.

Relic of Etu-Goth 5

Maw Blockage

You’re unable to pass through the Maw’s south gate and explore the lands beyond, but it doesn’t matter—the entrance to Phariseer’s Tomb is found along the valley’s east wall. Still, swing by the Maw’s south gate and shoot the Stonebite in the high left window to add to your collection.
