  • You'll automatically receive Astral Clocktower Key upon defeating the Living Failures boss towards the end of the Research Hall. Once you have it you'll be able to open the door to the Astral Clocktower that the boss was guarding.

  • At the start of Living Failures battle you'll only have to face one or two of these enemies, but as the fight progresses, more and more will gradually appear in the area. While each one only has a relatively small amount of health and can be killed off, you need to defeat enough of them to deplete their overall shared HP pool. Because they have quite high physical resistance, your best means of killing them is to use elemental attacks, or try to Interrupt them and use Visceral Attacks, since they will still deal significant damage.

  • Once you've killed enough of them to finish the fight you'll automatically get the key, and the Lumenwood Garden lamp will appear at the back of the area near the locked door.

  • Upon entering the Astral Clocktower you'll notice a mysterious figure sat in a chair on the opposite side of the room; approach the chair and inspect the corpse to trigger a cutscene. As soon as that cutscene is over the fight with Lady Maria will begin, so make sure you're ready beforehand.

Availability

  • Dropped by (Old Hunters DLC): Living Failures in Research Hall Lumenwood Garden
