The Royal Cartographer once again calls upon adventurers to aid him in resuming his work across the realms – but this time, the hunt moves directly into the battlegrounds.
Across the battlegrounds, Treasure Hunters have begun scavenging old charts, breaking them apart and trading fragments for profit. Even rival adventurers now carry pieces of these maps, claimed through battle and hard-won encounters. By defeating Treasure Hunters and enemy players, you will recover Map Fragments that can be exchanged for valuable rewards. These fragments represent scattered knowledge — incomplete on their own, but powerful when brought together.
To keep the hunt fresh, the event will rotate through different battlegrounds each week. As reports shift, so too will the Cartographer’s focus.
Each week, a new battleground will become the center of activity, offering fresh conflicts, and new hunting grounds.
The hunt begins in Molvik, with other battlegrounds to follow in the weeks ahead. Entrance to Molvik will be through the Battleground Teleporters in your realm’s relic town.
Players may visit the Royal Cartographer in their realm’s portal keep in Molvik, or capital city, to receive two quests:
