You should craft at least two pots, since one is consumed during the crafting process.11111212Walkthrough13131414The quest objective reads "Decipher the records analyzed by the Witches," which can seem vague at first. In practice, it involves a multi-step crafting process followed by a trip to the Abyss.15151616Step 1: Collect the Small Kuku ATAG Blueprint17171818Travel to Gorthak in northwest Delesyia. Find the NPC Marek at the Zargan Tankworks (west of Gorthak) and collect the ATAG Mech blueprints he offers. Reading the blueprint permanently teaches you the Small Kuku ATAG recipe.19192020Step 2: Craft the Small Kuku ATAG21212222Return to Grimnir's Kuku Shop at Kilnden Workshop in Hernand. Use the following materials to craft the Small Kuku ATAG:23232424MaterialQuantitySourceKuku Pot1Dispatch Greymane comrades from Howling Hill (talk to Ross); costs 15 armaments, 105 stone, 75 timber, 60 food, and 2,500 money per potAbyss Cell1Drops from Abyss-corrupted creatures (camouflaged as bushes, shrubbery, or rocks with glowing Abyss orbs)Cogwheel5Drops from mechanical enemies in Delesyia (golems, robot mosquitoes, and similar contraptions)Small Battery5Drops from mechanical enemies in Delesyia2525Important: The Kuku Pot is consumed during crafting.

Speak with Grimnir and select the Abyssal Fusion recipe to craft the armor.35353636Step 5: Equip the Armor at the Nest of Valor37373838After crafting, track the Wings of Iron quest in your Journal and travel to the Nest of Valor. This is a floating Abyss island located above the Dry Valley, the same location visited during the Chapter 9 boss fight against Goyen. Approach the quest marker to trigger a cutscene: the armor mechanism wraps around Blackstar in an elaborate transformation sequence, and Kliff mounts the newly armored dragon.39394040Completion41414242Blackstar, now clad in the Abyssal Dragon Armor, spreads its giant wings toward the skies. The visual upgrade is permanent and cannot be removed. While the armor increases Blackstar's damage resistance during air combat and liberation missions, it does not improve flight speed, extend flight duration, or reduce the 50-minute cooldown between summons.43434444Rewards45454646RewardDetailsAbyssal Dragon ArmorPermanent cosmetic and defensive upgrade for Blackstar; increases damage resistance during air combat4747Tips48484949Craft at least two or three Kuku Pots before starting this quest. One pot is consumed during the Small Kuku ATAG crafting step, so you will lose any Abyss items stored inside it.Cogwheels and Small Batteries both drop from the same mechanical enemies in Delesyia, so you can farm them together in a single trip.The Serpent Shrine typically yields around 50 Aeserion's Scales per visit, so a single trip should be enough.Completing faction quests increases your reputation with the local faction, unlocking access to better vendors and rewards.50505151See Also52525353Abyssal FusionAbyssal Dragon ArmorBlackstarKilnden WorkshopFaction QuestsKuku PotSide Quests GuideFactions
