Soul Pyre Rewards.

[Fynlar]

I'm sorry but I have to ask. I fail at these soul pyres so does anyone know of a good method of grabbing the item from such?

- Play the casket guessing game at Mummers' Coalition (if you've done a lot of Treasure Caskets, you'll already know what this is like. Pick the medium difficulty option, it's much easier to win with 6 guesses, and you want to be able to win with some consistency to get winnings multipliers)
- Use the Mummers' Medals to buy a ton of Soul Spectacles. 20 medals = 1 spectacles

The spectacles basically give you one free guess at a soul pyre. You'll probably burn through these fast, but you can get one stack of 99 spectacles for less than 2k medals, and it's not that hard to rack them up. You'll want to have some around anyway, in case you find a pyre with something cool inside.

As for the actual process of unlocking a pyre, what I've usually done is to just make make minor adjustments in my position, but only in one direction at a time. If the % goes up (which is what you don't want), I reverse the movement I just made, and try moving in another direction.
