Unlocking the Gilded Bucket: A Guide to the Way of the Bucket Quest in Lords of the Fallen
Lords of the Fallen received a major content update that introduced an intriguing new questline called The Way of the Bucket. This epic journey will take players across the realm to collect items and uncover mysteries.
Let's break down everything you need to know to complete The Way of the Bucket quest in Lords of the Fallen.
Starting the Bucket Quest
To begin, travel to the Vestige of Chabui. Head upstairs and smash open barrels to reveal a passage blocked by an iron grill. Use your Umbral abilities to slip past it.
You'll find a NPC sitting on the ground. Pick up the Broken Bucket and Bucketlord's Salute LOTF items near him. Equip the Broken Bucket and assign the Bucketlord's Salute gesture.
Return downstairs and perform the Greeting, Point Downwards, and Bucketlord's Salute gestures. This will initiate the questline.
Finding the Bucketlord's Pride
Your goal is to locate 12 Bucketlord's Pride items scattered across the realm. Each is found after defeating certain bosses and mini-bosses.
The Pride items are located in places like the Manse of the Hallowed Brothers, Tower of Penance, and Castle Approach. Use the LotF ring to help track down their locations.
Once you gather 4 Pride items, return and deliver them to the Bucketlord NPC to receive the Bucketlord's Shoes. The next 4 will earn you the Bucketlord's Helm.
Unlocking the Gilded Bucket
After handing over all 12 Pride items, the Bucketlord will give you a clue about the "big treasure" - "Seek gold amidst flames."
This hints at finding the Gilded Bucket. Travel to the Slums of Calrath and locate the large tree at the end. Climb the stairs past it and enter the open door to claim the Gilded Bucket reward!
