Crusader Akkhan Set Dungeon Guide
Welcome to our guide to complete the Akkhan set dungeon for Crusaders, a required step to complete the Masters of the Universe Conquest.
Overview of the Akkhan Set Dungeon
The Akkhan Set Dungeon is located in Act III, The Armory. Simply go to the Act III town, Bastion's Keep Stronghold, then head to the right and down of the town waypoint. Once inside, head downward to the lower room where Leah resides during the campaign. The entrance will appear if you have the Akkhan 6-piece bonus equipped.
The Akkhan Set Dungeon's two unique Primary Objectives are to: 1) Use
Condemn on 10 enemies simultaneously 10 times; and 2) Kill 150 enemies
while imbued with
Akarat's Champion form.
The Akkhan Set Dungeon starts at a wide hallway, leading into a square-shaped main area. Your attempt path is fairly straightforward — clear the starting area, then do a clockwise or counter-clockwise run through the main hall.

The Akkhan Set Dungeon is populated by three kinds of enemies:
- Morlu Invaders/Morlu Legionnaires — the bread and butter of your first
Primary Objective, using
Condemn on 10 enemies simultaneously 10 times. They come in great numbers and surround you quickly, whilst not dealing too much damage.
- Soul Rippers — coming in small numbers and with an annoying attack-dodge behavior pattern, Soul Rippers are not worth the effort to attempt a pull. Dispatch them on sight.
- Guardians of Akkhan — the unique enemies on the map. They resemble Act 4's Mallet Lord trash, but also have an Arcane elite affix. Because of their slow movement speed and easily dodged attacks, you can use them as extra fodder for Morlu pulls to fulfill the first Primary Objective.
Tips for the Akkhan Set Dungeon
As with most Set Dungeons, a follower is not necessary and might get in the way more than help the situation. Do not be afraid to dismiss your companion.
Allow the Morlu troopers to converge on you and use Condemn once.
When first mortally wounded, Morlus remain at one hit's worth of health and, if
left for a few seconds, regenerate. This allows you to use them for more than
one big pull to complete the first Primary Objective, using
Condemn on
10 enemies simultaneously 10 times. This is the more demanding of the two
Objectives, so try to get it out of the way ASAP.
Unlike any standard Condemn build, avoid using
Blade of Prophecy
(either cubed or in hand). The additional explosions provide extra damage that is
more than unnecessary here, as they might finish off Morlu enemies before you can
use them for a second 10-enemy pull.
Unlike a Condemn progression spec, you may use the
Unleashed
rune over
Vacuum to avoid pulling and killing too much trash at once,
risking the first Objective.
The second Primary Objective, killing 150 enemies while imbued with
Akarat's Champion, naturally requires high uptime of this cornerstone
Crusader skill. Do your best to reach the 56% Cooldown Reduction breakpoint to
ensure its permanent uptime; remember that you can use a lot of shortcuts to
achieve that, due to the low damage and toughness requirements of the Set
Dungeon. The
Fervor passive plus an equipped
Swiftmount will net
you easy 15% extra CDR. Standard
Condemn build suggestions like a cubed
Leoric's Crown apply in full force. You can even add an extra level 25+
Gogok of Swiftness and cube an
Obsidian Ring of the Zodiac for
additional CDR.
