Shadow Pontiff
From HGWiki
Before starting this accomplishment, make sure you have picked up the Black Disk from Shadow Elves - Priest's Quarters. You will need to place the Black Disk, plus the skull located in this area, to open the door to Ruination's abode.
There are two puzzles to solve in the area before the Shadow Pontiff.

Puzzle #1 SolutionClick the corresponding levers in the order shown below:
Puzzle #2 SolutionMatch the items below to the corresponding gravestones: Aglata the Wise - Seer = Ivory Ramekin Lessithin Hillin - King = Elven Wine Ssultho the Prophetess - Prophet = Shadow Horn (located in Loot Bag under the ramekin) Veradro D'oll - Warlord = Thayvian Coin Be sure you are ready to fight before completing the fourth item above! Per his namesake, Ruination has several casts of Greater Ruin, but this can be nullified with a well-timed Bigby's Grasping Hand. You can use Mordenkainen's Disjunction can help reduce his SR, if necessary. After Ruination is killed, you must place his skull on the altar to open the next door. |
Be careful with accidentally closing doors in this area, as it's possible to lock yourself out of a room while the required components are consumed.
