The Elder Scrolls Online Previews Exiled Redoubt Dungeon, Which Brings Back a Returning Character

The Elder Scrolls Online’s Fallen Banners dungeon pack is coming this month, and the team is previewing one of the new dungeons, Exiled Redoubt (after previewing the other, Lep Seclusa).

Exiled Redoubt is the name of the last remaining fortress of the once-prominent Imperial noble Albus family. This fortress is a stronghold meant to keep secrets, including those of Cato Albus, the head of the family. Within, there is a mysterious vault where his reported schemes become clear.

Where there's a mystery, there's often a need to solve it and discover those secrets. And this time, there’s also a returning character who will help you: Lucilla Caprenia. The trained battlemage was last seen in Dread Cellar, in the Waking Flame dungeon DLC. She's there investigating reports of soldiers going missing in Cyrodiil from all of the alliance armies. The trail led here.

Once you're in the dungeon, prepare to face a variety of enemies that have been waiting. Cato’s secrets won't be revealed easily, and he has loyal soldiers in the stronghold ready to ambush and pounce, assisted by iron atronach spiders, hounds, and bosses to face down. Prime Sorcerer Vandorallen, on his flaming horse and controlling those iron spiders (which can squeeze through gaps and blow things up).

Battle alongside Lucilla and eventually confront Cato.

Of course there are new rewards including item sets,  and a new monster mask themed after the Squall of Retribution boss. A new effect is in the Vandorallen’s Resonance light armor set, which makes your heavy attacks charge you and your target and then explode as damage to enemies.

Fallen Banners will be out on PC/Mac on March 10th and on console March 23rd. The initial release is for ESO Plus members, and in this preview the team says they’ll announce how non-members can access the new dungeon pack at the upcoming ESO Direct in April. So, the timed exclusive looks to last for a little while.
