Need Electrum for the Drakeslayer's Belt in FF16? Learn where to find the Severian Mark hunt and how to defeat it to get this rare material.
So, you've finished the Blacksmith's Blues side quest and you're eyeing up that sweet Drakeslayer's Belt and Drakeslayer's Vambraces? Awesome! They're a serious upgrade. But wait, you need three rare materials, and one of them is Electrum. You might have noticed a little Hunt icon next to it on the crafting screen. That's your biggest clue!
To get your hands on Electrum, you'll need to progress the main story a bit until you hit the 'After the Storm' quest. That's when the Severian Mark hunt becomes available. Let's go track it down!
Severian Location
Alright, first things first: head to the Imperial Province of Rosaria. From there, teleport to Martha's Rest. Now, you'll want to exit using the lift on the west side and make your way into the area called Sorrowise. Keep heading northwest from there, and you'll find the Fallen Ruins. That's where our target is waiting.
Here's a visual reminder:

Once you're in the Fallen Ruins, you'll face off against the Severian Mark. This guy is a bit of a challenge, especially at this point in the game, so make sure you've stocked up on any healing items you might need. Severian's lunge attack is its most dangerous move, so be ready to nail that Precision Dodge to avoid it. If you want a more detailed breakdown of how to beat it, check out our dedicated Severian strategy guide.
Defeating Severian is your ticket to the Electrum you need. Take it back to Blackthorne at the Hideaway, and you'll finally be able to craft that Drakeslayer's Belt!
