How Do You Get the Sky Sentinel Class in The Veil?
Sky Sentinel is the Sky Islands class, and its quest is gated by the weather. Here is the requirement list, the route up, and how to plan around the rain.
Quick answer: the Sky Sentinel trainer is Cryus on Sky's Reach — the leftmost island you reach by the Shimmering Sanctum gem teleport. The quest asks for 30 Offerings, a silver payment, five Angry Nimbus kills during rain, and a Cloud in a Bottle. Sources agree on the shape of the requirements but differ slightly on the exact numbers, so the table below shows the consensus and flags the split.
Requirements at a glance
| Requirement | Detail | Source status |
|---|---|---|
| 30 Offerings | Class currency — see the Offerings route | Sources agree |
| Silver payment | Reported around 1,000 silver | Amount varies between write-ups |
| 5 Angry Nimbus kills | Rain only, in the Glade | Sources agree — weather-gated |
| Cloud in a Bottle | Reported ~1-in-10 Bestiary drop from Angry Nimbus | Rate is a reported estimate |
The route, step by step
- Bank the bankable first: 30 Offerings and the silver payment can both be gathered before you ever set foot on the islands.
- Get up to Sky Island: hand one gem to the NPC beside the Sanctum obelisk, then activate the waypoint inside the cave on arrival so future trips cost nothing. Sanctum route.
- Take the class quest from Cryus on Sky's Reach (leftmost island) — take it before hunting, so the kills count.
- Wait for rain and get your five Angry Nimbus kills in the Glade. Grab the Cloud in a Bottle on the way (Bestiary-reported ~1 in 10).
- Return to Cryus with the kills, the Cloud, the Offerings and the silver to finish the unlock.
Why players get stuck
- Weather gate: Angry Nimbus only spawn during rain, and no player-controlled rain trigger has been documented. Do every other step first so rain is your only wait.
- Old guides disagree on the numbers: the silver amount and small requirement details differ between write-ups — treat every number as dated and follow the in-game quest text at the trainer.
- Paid the gem twice: the Sanctum NPC takes one gem per trip only until you activate the Sky Island waypoint. Activate it on the first visit. Waypoints guide.
FAQ
Common questions about this topic.
How do you get the Sky Sentinel class in The Veil?
Take the quest from Cryus on Sky's Reach, then complete it: 30 Offerings, a silver payment, five Angry Nimbus kills during rain and a Cloud in a Bottle.
Where is the Sky Sentinel trainer?
On Sky's Reach — the leftmost island of Sky Island, reached via the Shimmering Sanctum gem teleport. Activate the cave waypoint on arrival for free return trips.
How do you get a Cloud in a Bottle in The Veil?
It drops from Angry Nimbus during rain — reported around one drop in ten kills (Bestiary reading). Rain is the gate; there is no documented way to force it.
Can you get Sky Sentinel without rain?
No. Five of the quest's kills must happen during rain, and the Cloud in a Bottle comes from the same rain-only mob.
