Cardinal Tower salamander pit

Notable enemy · Dark Souls II

The dark, broad-headed lizards with fiery throats mark the optional pit below Cardinal Tower. Seeing them below does not mean you must jump into the pit to reach the Last Giant. One access uses the locked door opened with the Iron Key from Iron Keep; the fire-longsword tunnel is another approach. This marker represents the pit group, not every salamander or a safe drop point. Position is approximate.
