The Elder Scrolls Online’s Deadlands DLC brings three new Mythic-level items for players to uncover and put together. Just like all items with this tag, these cannot be equipped alongside other Mythics – players can only have one Mythic item equipped at a time. The shoulder-piece Spaulder of Ruin is one of these new items.
As a piece of Light gear, the Spaulder of Ruin is a powerful support-oriented Mythic that sacrifices the wielder’s damage output to enhance their teammates' DPS even more. Interestingly, it procs when the player crouches, so remember to unequip this when going on stealthy adventures inThe Elder Scrolls Online.
Spaulder of Ruin Effects
The Spaulder of Ruin gives its wielder access to theAura of Pride, a 12-meter-wide areathat gives up tosix allies 260 Weapon and Spell Damagewhilereducing the wielder’s own Weapon and Spell Damage by 130 for each allyin the Aura. The Aura of Pride only existswhile the player is crouched,making the caster less mobileas well as unable to put out as much damage.

The Spaulder of Ruin is likely to be a very interesting Mythic thanks to this effect. It grants a huge bonus to teammates whilesacrificing the healer’s own abilityto move in combat or contribute to damage numbers. With good enough allies thesepersonal debuffs shouldn’t matteras much as the huge boons the team receives, but its effectiveness is likely dependent on the party as a whole.
How To Get The Spaulder of Ruin
Each of the three Mythic items introduced in the Deadlands DLC forThe Elder Scrolls Onlinecan be created through theAntiquities system. Because of the high quality of these unique Mythic items, onlyMaster-level Scryersare able to put them together.
By following five Leads and uncovering five fragments players areable to combine theminto the Spaulder of Ruin. Be patient when Scrying these Leads, as Master-level Leads can take several Scrying attempts to narrow down on a select few excavation sites, which cuts down significantly on time spent wandering from excavation to excavation.
Associated Leads
There are five associated Leads with the Spaulder of Ruin. These Leads can be foundthroughout the Deadlands and Fargrave, though the specifics of how to find these Leads are still being discovered as players dive headfirst into the Deadlands.
If we go by precedent from previous years, these Leads willlikely be found in Deadlands Dungeons, Delves, the Overland, and on Bossenemies(like World Bosses or the new Wandering Executioners) throughout the Deadlands. Keep an eye out for these five Leads, make sure your Scrying skill is up to par, and get a head start on putting together this Mythic piece of gear.
