Avowed - Should You Give Sargamis the Relic

Give Sargamis the Splinter of Eothas relic and keep him alive for the best outcome in Avowed. Read on to see what happens if you give the relic to Sargamis, along with other choices you can make during the Dawntreader quest including if you should kill Sargamis, sacrifice yourself, sacrifice Sargamis, or stop the experiment!

Sargamis Choice Outcomes

Give the Relic to Sargamis for Boss Fight / Unique Weapon

Choice Result
(1) (2)
Give the relic to Sargamis, place it on the Wheel, and pull the lever Persuade him to sacrifice himself in the Animancy device. Sargamis dies, and you can loot the Last Light of Day from his corpse. The Voice will also speak to you. Less XP upon completion.
Convince him to stop his experiment. Sargamis abandons his work, and The Voice will speak to you. Obtain the Last Light of Day by talking to Sargamis in his study room and get more XP upon completion.
Offer yourself as a sacrifice in the Animancy device You will die from electrocution, but you'll respawn just before the objective again
Offer yourself as a sacrifice in the Animancy device but back out at the last second You will fight Sargamis in a boss battle and can loot the Last Light of Day from his corpse afterward. Slightly more XP upon completion.
Don't give the relic to Sargamis and attack him.

If you speak to Sargamis and choose to give him the relic, you must place the relic into the wheel of statue yourself and pull the lever. Regardless of your decision, the mechanism will fail on the first attempt. This is when you decide what to do next.

Dawntreader Side Quest Walkthrough

Deliver the Relic to the Embassy

If you take the relic directly to Ofrye at the Aedyran Embassy, you'll earn more XP but will miss out on getting Sargamis' Last Light of Day and the opportunity to speak with The Voice.

Should You Give the Relic to Sargamis?

Give the Relic to Sargamis but Persuade Him to Stop the Experiment

There will be an option to persuade Sargamis to stop his experiment based on your background or attributes. Doing this will cause him to question his life and stop the experiment.

You can then ride the lift up near the statue to go to his study room where you can speak to him so that he can give you the Last Light of Day weapon.

This is the best outcome as no one (besides the expedition team during the Dawntreader quest) dies and you also get more exp points this way.
