St. Husius's House of Healing

Initial version with location details, hidden chest access method, and item stats
St. Husius's House of Healing is a large medical and religious complex located in the Hernand region of Crimson Desert. The facility functions as a sanatorium and serves as the setting for the Familiar Curses faction quest. Beyond its role in the questline, the House of Healing contains a cleverly hidden treasure that most players miss entirely: inside one of the towers, a destructible floor tile conceals a secret chamber with a chest containing the Blackwing Leather Boots. Reaching this hidden treasure requires a specific sequence of actions that the game never explicitly tells you about.
The House of Healing is a sprawling complex of stone buildings, towers, and courtyards. It is a prominent landmark in the Hernand region and becomes accessible as you progress through the game's faction quests. The building complex includes treatment wards, a chapel area, and several towers that can be explored.

Hidden Treasure | Blackwing Leather Boots (in tower) |
The hidden treasure at St. Husius's House of Healing is located inside one of the tower structures within the complex. To reach it, locate the tower and enter through an open window. Climbing inside, you will initially see what appears to be an empty room with nothing of interest. The secret lies beneath the floor.
To reveal the hidden chamber, follow these steps:
Enter the tower through the open window.
Look at the central tile on the floor. It appears identical to the surrounding tiles at first glance.
Crouch down (press the crouch button).
While crouched, perform a focus punch (charged melee attack) on the central floor tile.
The tile will flip and break, dropping you into a secret chamber below.
Open the chest in the hidden room to claim the Blackwing Leather Boots.
This is one of the more obscure hidden items in the game because the tower room gives no visual indication that anything is hidden there. The floor tile looks completely normal, and there are no environmental clues like cracks or discoloration. The only way to discover it is to try interacting with the floor while crouched.
The chest in the secret chamber contains the Blackwing Leather Boots, a piece of footwear from the Blackwing equipment line. These boots provide a strong mix of offensive and defensive stats along with mobility and elemental resistance bonuses, making them one of the better footwear options available during the mid-game.

The Blackwing Leather Boots are notable for their combination of offensive power and mobility. With 12 Attack and a Critical Rate bonus, they contribute to your damage output while also providing movement speed for better positioning in combat. The Lightning Resistance is a useful bonus for encounters against enemies that use lightning-based attacks.
St. Husius's House of Healing is the primary setting for the Familiar Curses faction quest, which involves investigating the sanatorium for signs of a missing Greymane member. The quest takes you through various parts of the complex, and completing it rewards you with the St. Halssius Priest Attire set. The hidden Blackwing Leather Boots in the tower are separate from the quest rewards and can be found independently.
Crouch first, then punch. You must crouch before using the focus punch on the floor tile. Standing attacks will not trigger the hidden mechanism.
Explore beyond the quest. If you visit the House of Healing for the Familiar Curses quest, take extra time to explore the towers. The quest path does not lead you to the tower with the hidden boots.
No quest prerequisite for the boots. While the Familiar Curses quest brings you to the House of Healing, you do not need to be on the quest to access the tower and claim the Blackwing Leather Boots. You can visit independently as long as you can reach the location.
Check other towers too. The House of Healing has multiple towers and buildings. While only one contains the hidden Blackwing Leather Boots, others may have additional loot or items related to the faction quest.
