How to use the Ritual Dagger in PEAK – Last Resort Badge
PEAK’s Final Ascent update adds the Last Resort Badge, which requires players to use the Ritual Dagger during a co-operative run. The challenge matters because the dagger only appears in co-op, making the badge and its associated rewards unavailable to solo players.
Players must search Ancient Statues and Ancient Luggage for the dagger, whose location is random and may include areas such as the Citadel. After obtaining it, they must reduce their health to 25% or less, then use the dagger from behind on a teammate; this kills and petrifies the teammate while restoring at least 75% of the user’s health. The dagger can alternatively be consumed to restore health and cure current ailments.
In short
- The Last Resort Badge requires co-op play and the Ritual Dagger.
- Find the dagger in Ancient Statues or Ancient Luggage.
- Use it behind a teammate while below 25% health.
Explained simply
PEAK is a climbing game in which players try to reach the summit, either alone or in a co-operative group. Its Final Ascent update adds challenges called badges, which players can earn by completing specific tasks during a run.
The Last Resort Badge centres on the Ritual Dagger, an item found only in co-operative runs. It can appear in Ancient Statues or Ancient Luggage, with its location varying between runs. The badge’s requirements involve using the dagger on a teammate, so solo players cannot earn it or its associated rewards.
