Wish Totems and Imminent Wish
Scorn Chieftains create lantern-like totems with a white capture ring and Taken blight at the center. Stand inside the ring until the central blight disappears and the device changes state.
Naeem's Wish Empowerment
At Rathil and Hefnd, each Cleansed Totem increases the duration of Naeem's Wish Empowerment, the window that makes the boss damageable. At Locus, each Cleansed Totem instead creates one Solar Charge when Imminent Wish expires.
Blighted Eyes
Small floating Taken Eyes are mechanic triggers and timer extenders.

Pull checklist
0 / 51. Defeat Rathil, First Broken Knight of Fikrul quick reference
- Engage Rathil and clear Scorn. Watch his ritual animation and listen for Imminent Wish.
- Before the teleport, identify the first Wish Totem if visible and call its location.
- Each player appears in a suspended cage that rises toward spikes. Find and destroy three Blighted Eyes around that cage. Check eye level, below the cage rim, and above it.
- If a teammate calls last Eye, look across from your cage and help. The Eyes are shared targets even though the cages are separate.
- When the cage opens, drop safely and move to the called Wish Totem. Stand in the ring until the central blight and ring disappear.
