Vowing to see Zenith suffer no more at the ravaging claws of the Horde, Hraesvelgr has summoned the mighty Vedrfolnir to do his bidding. Join the white dragon in defending the ancient spire from Darkscale─one of Nidhogg's most fearsome generals.

— In-game description

Darkscale Descendeth is a level 55 FATE spawned in The Churning Mists.

Prerequisites

In order to spawn this FATE, 3 FATEs involving Darkscale's underlings must be completed beforehand:

Additionally, this FATE has a cooldown of at least one hour.[1]

Additional Information

Vedrfolnir will leave at 20% hp and the fate will fail. Benediction.png  Benediction is highly recommended.

Consider using multiple Blue Mage frame icon.png blue mages with Perpetual Ray.png  Perpetual Ray to Stun icon1.png Stun lock the boss, or have the White Mage frame icon.png White Mage reset their Benediction.png  Benediction cooldown by entering a duty with Unrestricted Party on and leaving.

Darkscale will primarily attack Vedrfolnir and only occasionally attack random players, regardless of enmity. Due to this, a tank is not necessary.
