Leyndell: Ramparts and Avenue
The east side of the Royal Capital, from the rampart down to the avenue, the lower capital and the sealed east road.
The capital suits level 90 to 110, so upgrade what you can before going in. It is a stack of levels, and most of this section is getting from one to the next: rooftops, lifts, a sewer and a graveyard under the street.
Clear the Royal Capital before the late game
The Royal Capital changes for good when a late boss dies, and almost nothing here survives that. Take every row on this page now and don't rely on coming back. From this stretch you would lose: Perfume Bottle (octagon tower), Seedbed Curse (octagon tower), the Avenue Balcony and Lower Capital Church graces, Stonesword Key (Imp rooftops), Imp Head (Corpse), Erdtree Avatar, Stonesword Key (graveyard), Black Bow, Stonesword Key (wine cellar chest), Lesser Ulcerated Tree Spirit, Golden Seed (north of Avenue Balcony), Omensmirk Mask, Lionel's Set, Deathbed Dress, Lost Ashes of War (Leyndell sewer), Perfume Bottle (east gate dead end), Flamedrake Talisman +1 and Ash of War: Thunderbolt. The next section's list is longer, and it has a legendary armament on it.
