Players are given points at the beginning of building their custom characters.

If for some reason you don’t want to pick up the items inside Blackpit Mines, you can find some of them in other locations later on. An Eternal Plate can also be found in the Flooded Temple, right side of the entrance and hidden behind a pillar. In the Academy, within the library you will also find an Eternal Plate tucked inside a desk. Keep in mind that as of now, no other locations are known for finding an Eternal Artef
