The Protecty Sparkswall

Location - The Protecty Sparkswall

The Robe is obtained in Act 1, Grymforge. This requires you to get behind a flame gargoyle trap. You will have to move around the steel bridge to reach it easier.

Here is a video covering a very easy way to reach the chest:

Generally, there are two ways to go through the bridge filled with flame traps:

  1. Go around the area where Elder Brithvar is standing, there you can jump on a cliff and move around to reach the steel bridge. Jump through the bridge, and reach another tiled area. Continue there, and climb the ladder. Now use the Misty Step spell to get behind bars where the stone gargoyle is located.
  2. Go up the stairs and pass the trader. Go to the far end of the corridor (you will pass three Rothes and dead Dark Justiciars). There you will encounter a few druegars that are using Rothes to dig. Force the Rothes to destroy the wall. Fight with Druegar. Continue up the stairs and reach the bridge filled with flame traps. Go through it, by disarming or avoiding plates. At the end use the Misty Step spell to get behind bars where the stone gargoyle is located.

Notes

This is the best robe in Act 1, due to its +1 Spell Save DC. This improves spell success chance.

Discussion



Gale can absorb the Magic from this Item. If Gale consumes it, it vanishes forever. That is irreversible and unavoidable.

(There is better food for Gale: Ring of Color Spray, Frayed Drow Hood, Sunwalkers Gift, Everseeing Eye Necklace, Exterminators Axe; Hunting Shortbow, Kormira's Locket, Spiderstep Boots.)
