Vorgoth's Bound Essence is what remains of the boss Vorgoth once the final battle of Cinder's Cradle is won. Its description says that certain protection demands something personal, and it names the essence as the material for Vorgoth's own armour. The Ancient Researcher uses it for every piece of the Vorgoth's Soulbound Set, from the Vorgoth's Soulbound Crown to the boots. The same crafter needs it for the Shroud Vessel's Greatsword. One essence also goes into the offering for Flame level 11 at the Flame Altar, beside Vorgoth's Eye. Planning matters, since the essence comes only from the boss. Vorgoth waits at Mother Flame's Domicile inside The Ancient Citadel, high above the region. He fights in two forms, Champion of the Shroud and then the Wanderer's Vessel, and the essence drops after the second form falls. The fight is the climax of Cinders Of The End, the last story quest from the Ancient Researcher. It is the final material of the story, and it decides how much of the Soulbound gear can be made.
Lore
Vorgoth was once the Guard of the North, the warden of the wall. By the end of his story he has become the Wanderer's Vessel, and Shroud damage does nothing to him. The essence is the last part of him that can still be bound to armour. Its description warns that certain protection demands something personal, and wearing his armour means carrying a piece of him.
Notes
- Each Soulbound armour piece needs one Essence, and the greatsword needs two.
- The quest Cinders Of The End also rewards the Vorgoth's Soulbound Crown and Vorgoth's Soulbound Gloves.

Vorgoth's second form, the Wanderer's Vessel, always drops two or three. He is fought at Mother Flame's Domicile, at the top of The Ancient Citadel, during Cinders Of The End. Picking it up with Loraine Crim rescued unlocks the Soulbound recipes at the Ancient Researcher.
