Where can I get the Beast Eye? 

This item is given to you by Gurranq, the Beast Clergyman, when you first encounter him. This triggers a quest that he wants you to hunt down and give him more Deathroot in exchange for a unique item.

Where can I find Gurranq, the Beast Clergyman? 

He is located in the Bestial Sanctum - the northernmost part of Caelid. You can find a teleporter near the Third Church of Marika in Limgrave. 

What does it mean with the message "Beast Eye Quivers?" 

The message "Beast Eye Quivers" appears at the bottom of the screen when your character is close to a nearby boss who drops a deathroot item when defeated. These bosses are optional, and they are the enemies that Gurranq wants to defeat because of the items they drop after being beaten.

How do you beat Tibia Mariner? 

Tibia Mariners are optional ghost enemies that ride a magical boat. They can be seen in swamps across the Lands Between. They are very slow and focus on summons when attacking. Sometimes it attacks by lifting its boat and smashing you through it; you just need to dodge and then continue making enough damage until its HP drops. Tibia Mariners also disappear and can be found in a different location within the place. 

The good news is that Tibia Mariners are pretty easy to defeat, and you can also run away if your character's HP is low. 

Deathroot Locations

You can find Deathroot in these locations. Take note that whenever there is a presence of deathroot, boss fights are required to get the deathroot item.

  1. Summonwater Village (East Limgrave)
  2. Snow Valley Ruins Site of Grace
  3. Carian Study Hall (Liurnia of the Lakes)
  4. Black Knife Catacombs (Northeast part of Liurnia of the Lakes)
  5. Wyndham Ruins
  6. Gelmir Hero’s Grave (Mt Gelmir)
  7. Deathtouched Catacomb (Limgrave)
  8. Haligtree
  9. Mountaintops of the Giants 

What do I get from exchanging Deathroot? 

Here are the rewards Beastman Clergy Gurranq will give you in exchange for the Deathroot:

  1. Clawmark Seal
  2. Bestial Sling
  3. Bestial Vitality
  4. Ash of War: The Beast's Rawr
  5. Beast Claw
  6. Stone of Gurranq
  7. Beastclaw Greathammer
  8. Gurranq’s Beast Claw
  9. Ancient Dragon Smithing

Is Deathroot important?

Story-wise, collecting Deathroot items is entirely optional. However, you can get a useful item or weapon from Gurranq when you hunt down bosses that drop deathroot items. For completionists and gamers who wish to get a platinum trophy for this game, this is important. because you are getting important items like ashes of war and incantations that are required to get trophies or achievements.
