You’ll find the Aeras Shield inside a chest in the Cathedral of Blight. This optional gear is one of the strongest shields in the entire game.
Reaching the Whirlwind Way
Recommended level: 36
After finding the Fire, Air and Earth Amulets, head back to the Sea Dragon. The Water Spirit will show up, giving you the Water Amulet. With all four amulets you can now head to the final dungeon in the story.
Land anywhere and get up on the Skystone. Head for the Cathedral of Blight, on the small island in the middle of the world. The main entrance is locked, so enter the cathedral through the roof.
Get to the lowest level of the cathedral. The layout is the same as before, but there are roaming minions now. When you reach the prison cell, you’ll see a giant hole in the middle. Jump on it.
Take the stairs down in the middle, then go down on the staircase. You’ll be in a room full of poisonous tiles. Go to the northeastern corner to find the next set of stairs.
Step on the switch to unlock the main door, so you can come back here later. Go down another floor by taking the stairs on the southwestern side, and then take the stairs in the middle. The stairs on the corner lead to a chest with a Pandora’s Box, a stronger variant of the Mimic.
There’s a chest with a Mini Medal to the north of you. Take the path south and go down to the next floor. You’ll arrive at a room full of teleportals.
If you want to quickly exit this floor, take the first teleportal, then do them in this order: north, east, west, northwest, and the one on the northeastern corner.
Go down two floors and you’ll reach an area that seems organic. Take the entrance to your right and follow the path until you reach the exit on the northwestern corner.
This room has many giant eggs. If you break them you’ll fight a random minion. Go to the northeastern corner to find the exit. You’ll need to break at least one egg to get through.
If you step in front of the pool and use one of your elemental amulets, a different entrance will show up, depending on what amulet you use. Use the Air Amulet to enter Whirlwind Way.
Getting the Aeras Shield
You’ll be transported to a room very similar to the Multipleximus Maximus, where you must rotate the entire area by walking to the edges.
Walk south twice and then turn to the right of the screen. Follow the path and you’ll see a chest on the right side of the hole. Open it to get the Aeras Shield.
Congratulations! The Aeras Shield is yours. This shield has the third-highest defense in the game, and it reduces the damage of Woosh, Crack, Frigid Breath, and Maelstrom by 30 points. You can also use it to cast Bound, a spell that reflects one incoming spell back at the caster.
Now that you have the shield, you can keep advancing to fight Orgodemir, or you can cast Evac to go back to the start of the dungeon. Going back to the start and using the other amulets will let you find the other pieces of the Saint’s equipment. It’s heavily recommended to have all four pieces before fighting him.
