Guide The Festival of the Heroes 2023 Guide

Can anyone give instructions on how to get to the Bonus II? I can go to the coordinates but I don't know how to get to that elevation

 

The map just leads to some random temple recently built on the map border left of Corkus. its a cool build but not anything important yet

 

Will bonus location coords be posted? I'm kind of stuck on a few

 

Could I get some help with Day 6? I've gone to the place and maybe I'm blind but I can't seem to figure out which mine I need to enter to find it. Is it one of the ones that are quest locked?

 

@RiderTest101 Bonus Location 4 was found at the white meteor from the current ??? quest through the additional challenges/puzzles you can do to learn more about the lore. I don't remember the exact coordinates of the cache but again it's just at the very very end of the meteor in the additional segment you can go do after you finish the ??? quest. For those of you who don't know how to access it, go to the wiki and search up the ??? quest (can't post the link because I don't have 10 posts lol), which has the additional steps in order at the very bottom of the page all in spoilered text.

Now I'm genuinely curious for anyone else who found this, is this questlocked? I don't know because I went to the meteor and it allowed me to teleport in after clicking a hologram at the entrance without taking any of the 3 shards, I've done the quest already so of course it wouldn't. What I'm confused about is why this is a massive jump to level 80 areas whereas everything else slowly scales and all other 4 bonus locations have been anywhere between 35-45 level areas. And again, I don't believe this stuff is supposed to be questlocked, but of course things change. I'm just genuinely curious :p

 

It's behind the isle itself. Just go around and eventually you will see mineshaft entrance to the cave

Mind sharing bonus IV location coordinates?

 

Isn’t the nest of the Cockatrice quest-locked too though?

 

Ah yeah, you're right... I'm really not sure about the reason behind putting some of these in questlocked areas (since if I remember correctly, yes the elevators and bridge are questlocked but I think you could movement spell over to the middle) where it will physically lock you out and give you a message in chat (I don't remember if the area is locked in this way, or if it's just the fact it's inaccessible if you have no movement spells). My best guess personally is that given that this year's event is shared across all classes rather than individually, that allows for more options...? really not sure. I'm also still puzzles by the large jump to 80 level stuff lol, however I just noticed something after typing this stuff out that I'll point at the next quote below:

Sure, figure I'll go back in and grab everything for you! Here's something I noticed while doing this back:

When I went back to the meteor (I've already collected the cache), the hologram allowing me to teleport in did not appear, even with the shards in my inventory, so I had to use them. This leads me to believe that this is not actually completely questlocked, which makes sense, given that even if you get to Mehme it's not like you can finish the quest just like that (Unless of course you've already made it that far in the quest). It's also worth noting that teleport I mentioned put you past the door that requires the lab key. Forgot about that while typing this and going to now go back in for a 2nd time :p

Your coordinates:
Entrance of the meteor is at [6 43 -5020], you may not have to bring shards with you as it seems the teleport hologram would appear for you once until you collect the cache.
Room of interest at [-97 20 -4988], hit the coloured crystals in the previous room (not the one before the door) in the order of red green yellow blue, then you will go into this room and do the invisible parkour. Follow the wiki for the rest of the steps. And puzzle solutions, wish I could post the link but I mentioned that :P
The absolute exact location of the cache is at [-192 5 -5003] at the very end of the additional segment.

 

the bonus locations are intentionally out of progression, since they're supposed to be very difficult compared to the dailies and weeklies

 

That makes sense, thanks for your reply :)

 

appreciate it pal

 

Isle? It's not an an island, do you mean behind the mountain range?

EDIT: Nevermind, I found it. I was looking in the mines at the top of the cliffs, I missed the whole section at the bottom of the cliffs that had mines.

 

Does anyone know the bonus location #4?

 

What about having so many scavenger areas questlocked? Will it even be possible to obtain all the unique rewards (up to Minstrel's tuner - 20 caches needed, only 30 caches total) or will newer players just be screwed out of the limited time event items unless they're capable of speedrunning the levelling and questing required to access them?

 

read above lol




also the next daily one is near lion's lair
(leave main almuj entrance, turn right, follow path up a bit, should be on your right if you follow those steps exactly)

 

Daily Day 9: 825, 90, -2130

 

Me when bonus location 4

 

i *think* 20 regular locations is doable without needing quests, though i'm not entirely sure

 

From what I can remember, I believe so, but the only thing I'd wonder about is the one by the cockatrice above the mesa, is that questlocked to the point where you physically get pushed back when trying to go onto the cockatrice island, or is it just questlocked in the sense you have to use movement spells to go over there but just can't use the bridge/elevators? Genuinely don't remember or even tried it either I think lol

 

I can't find the bonus clue ??? White Meteor (-193, 5, -5004). I followed coords and it ended up outside of Cinfras. Can anyone help please?
