Sandswept Ruins Information
- Sandswept Ruins doesn't have enemies, but tons of traps. Also, notice some traps require much higher mechanics skill to disarm. If your skill level is not high enough, you need to clear a path in traps then let your team members go through it one by one. If you have an out-of-combat movement ability like Bounding Boots' Leap, you can use it to skip the traps entirely.

-
To put down the firewall in the last chamber, you need to pull all the levers at the same time. (need 4 of your team members standing next to each of the levers.)
-
Once you loot the coffin ( aumaua skull and the Last Word),the door will seal shut and sand will start pouring in.. You need High Might or Athletics skills to escape. To disarm the sand trap and skip the sand flood completely, press the hidden button in the hidden room north of the entrance.

Winding Pass has some enemies waiting to ambush you, but you can find an alternative path to avoid them.

You can join the explorers at Lowland Sands, if you find the alternative path you can sell it to them for some coins.
- You can disable the flames around the coffin by pulling the chains, you must interact with the small icon above the chains (hold x and use directional to see the options on console). Put one character next to each pillar, pause and issue orders to interact to all of them. You will know if it’s working because you hear a chain sound.
