 Your Umbral Lamp in Lords of the Fallen serves not only to explore the realm of the dead but also allows you to interact with and solve specific puzzles within the game. One such puzzle is the Umbral Entity, an obstacle that appears in both the Umbral and Axiom realms, requiring players to clear it by pursuing specific objectives.

If you've encountered these blockages and are uncertain about how to deal with them, this guide is here to assist you. Below, we'll explain what Umbral Entities are in Lords of the Fallen and provide instructions on how to clear them to reach your next objective as a Dark Crusader.

What Are Umbral Entities and How To Clear Them

Let's start by defining Umbral Entities and how they function in Lords of the Fallen. In the game, you'll come across doorways blocked by an obstacle resembling Umbral Matter, which hinders your progress until you can remove it.

To clear these blockages, you'll notice the presence of large blue glowing Umbral roots extending from the obstacle. Following these roots will lead you to an Umbral Object, which you can target with the Soul Flay ability. Using Soul Flay on these objects will eliminate the root, and once all the roots have been cleared, you can then use Soul Flay to clear the Umbral Entity itself.

The first instance of this type of blockage can be found in the middle section of the Pilgrim's Perch area. In this particular case, three Umbral roots are connected to the blockage. It's important to note that you can only clear these roots from within the Umbral realm, so you'll need to prepare your resources to access the realm of the dead and remove them. Once you've done that, you'll be ready to clear the Umbral Entities that obstruct your path in Lords of the Fallen.

So, there you have it – a quick and comprehensive overview of how Umbral Entities function as obstacles to your progress in Lords of the Fallen and how to clear them. Make sure to explore the area thoroughly, as the roots may sometimes be hidden or out of sight, making them challenging to locate. However, once you find them, you can use Soul Flay to remove them and proceed with your journey as one of the cursed Dark Crusaders.
