How to get Severed Hands in Lords of the Fallen

This will allow you to invade another player’s world. The competitive play in LotF is very similar to that in other soulslike games. You simply need to defeat the host of the world to earn a Severed Hand. Defeating players in the host’s world will not earn you extra hands.

You can also get a Severed Hand by defeating an invader if you happen to get invaded. Keep in mind that you can get invaded by PC players whether you are on Xbox Series X/S or PlayStation but PlayStation and Xbox players cannot connect to one another.

Also, remember that participating in Lords of the Fallen co-op multiplayer will not get you Severed Hands. You can also use Charred Fingers to increase your likelihood of finding someone to invade.

How to use Severed Hands in Lords of the Fallen

To use Severed Hands, you must donate them to the Shrine of Adyr. This is very similar to other currencies that must be donated to the Shrine of the Putrid Mother and the Shrine of Orius.

Severed Hands are used at the Shrine of Adyr to purchase items such as Tincts. The following items are available at the Shrine of Adyr depending on what tier has been reached. The tier can be tracked via the progress bar at the shrine.

As stated previously, the number of items available is based on the number of donations made. Be sure to donate your Severed Hands whenever you can.

Where to find the Shrine of Adyr in Lords of the Fallen

To reach the Shrine of Adyr, go to the Ruiner boss arena. This is shortly past the Forsaken Fen. Once there, you need to destroy the Umbral Entity blocking your way. Go under the archway on the opposite side of the bridge and soulflay the back of it to destroy the entity.

Go to the middle of the bridge and you should see some platforms below some boxes you can destroy. These only appear in the Umbral Realm. Follow this pathway down and you will reach the Shrine of Adyr. Now you can donate your Severed Hands and work on getting more armor tincts as well as armor pieces.
