Description
Oath: Silentheart is one of the 16 obtainable Oaths. It sacrifices Mantras and Attunements as a whole in exchange for the ability to change weapons during battle and a unique set of attacks integrated into your moveset.
“ You feel as though a part of yourself has drifted away, into the vast nothingness of the Song. As sudden as this sensation arrived, a new piece of you took place. This heart beats differently, it drums to the beat of the world, not the Song, ever silent. ”
― Obtaining Silentheart
Silentheart is a result of a Vow made with The Dreadstar, a mysterious entity residing in the Voidsea made from the souls of various deceased individuals. Vengeful due to its death at the hands of the users of Mantras, it falsely believes it can rewire the hearts of those willing to engage in a Vow with it to avoid using the Song. Upon the Silentheart reaching their true potential, the Dreadstar fuses with them to form a single entity. Unfortunately, the Song is so permeating that the Silentheart is only able to sidestep the Mantras that killed them; their newfound abilities too rely on the Song. Had it truly become disconnected, the Silentheart would have become an ordinary human being with little strength or durability, akin to a Lightkeeper and their inability to use the Song. The Dreadstar references a "Keeper," implying it to have connections to Yun’Shul.
Obtainment
Meet the following requirements in any order:
- Be attunementless
- Have a total of 75 points in Weapons (LHT, MED, HVY all count, you can do 25/25/25, for example)
- Have 25 points in Strength
- Have 25 points in either Charisma or Agility
- Die to a player that uses an attunement. Chime of Conflict does not count, nor does getting gripped in the Second Layer with a Light Hook.
- Encounter a ghost npc on the Beloved Zofia and speak to the Dreadstar afterwards, if you are the first player to do so on a server this will spawn the dread star in, if you however are not the first in the server to do so you must slay/survive a ghost encounter to interact with the Dreadstar.
Once all met, head over to the Beloved Zofia in the Voidsea to talk to The Dreadstar
- Failing to meet any of the first 4 will cause The Dreadstar to say you do not have aptitude.
- If you haven't died to an attunement player, The Dreadstar will say "You lack focus on your rage".
For a more in-depth walkthrough, consider watching this video. (While the video suggests starting Suyuan's quest, intending that it spawns the ship - obtaining the Oath doesn't actually depend on it.)
Progression
This Oath is progressed via the killing of Attunement Trainers (excluding Regek, Beatra and Vyrelda).
This can be done in any order; however, the recommended order is Nell, Friid, Amashi, Funke, Adar, and Nostor due to their positions.
Note that killing the Spelltrainers will make you lose Reputation with some factions :
- Nell and Friid with Etrea
- Funke with Summer Company
- Adar with Ignition Union
Alternatively, if you've fully progressed the Oath in a previous life, 10 Knowledge can be spent to immediately unlock all related Talents.
Silentheart cannot be reobtained if you Oathbreak it, as the Dreadstar will not spawn.
