Release the Dark Anchor pinions to send the chains back to Coldharbour.

Chainbreaker is awarded for activating the Anchor Pinions at Dolmens. You need to activate 100 of them to receive the achievement. Each Dark Anchor will spawn 5 of them, 4 during the main battle and 1 just after defeating the final boss. Each one will fully restore the Health, Magicka, and Stamina of all players in the area, as well as providing them with buffs improving their combat effectiveness for a short while.

Contrary to popular belief, activating the pinions during or after the main battle has no effect on whether or not the Dolmen spawns a General for the General Executioner achievement. However, since each of them can only be activated by one player, it's a matter of courtesy if you arrive late in the battle to defer to those who were there before you (unless you're really in trouble), especially if you have already completed this achievement, as there is no additional benefit to activating more than 100 pinions.
