Tomb of Perdition belongs to the Restoration subcategory of Exploration Challenges. Restoration challenges require players to repair Abyss regions using abilities such as Axiom Force, Force Palm, and environmental puzzle-solving tools. The challenge does not involve hostile combat encounters; the difficulty comes from mechanical puzzle solving.
Tomb of Perdition is located within The Abyss region. Players reach it through Abyss Nexus teleportation or by progressing main quests that unlock Abyss traversal. Once inside, an Abyss Nexus point can be activated to register the challenge and add the Tomb of Perdition as a fast-travel destination.
Players must activate the Abyss Nexus in the tomb area, solve the puzzle at the heart of the challenge, and collect the Abyss Artifact at the end. The puzzle requires using Axiom Force on the central mechanism and Force Palm to energize the restoration sequence. Specific puzzle mechanics align with the Restoration template used across Abyss Challenges: reflect or align elements to unlock the Abyss Artifact chamber.
Completing Tomb of Perdition is the prerequisite for the next Restoration Challenge in sequence: Desert Fragment (Challenge). Players who want to attempt Desert Fragment must finish Tomb of Perdition first. This ordering means Tomb of Perdition functions both as a reward-granting challenge in its own right and as a gate for further Abyss content.
Progression toward the Expert Explorer trophy (one of the exploration subcategories)
Access to Desert Fragment (Challenge) as the next challenge
Before starting, make sure Axiom Force and Force Palm are unlocked to their required levels.
Interacting with the Abyss Nexus also provides a fast-travel option tied to the tomb, which is useful if you plan to revisit for exploration completion.
The puzzle is spatial and timing-based rather than combat-based, so no high-damage gear is required.
