1. Garden of the Gods Page 1

Next to the mastery point. Need springer to get up to the mastery point location.

2. Garden of the Gods Page 2

Inside the City of Amnoon

3. Garden of the Gods Page 3

Near the Hero point in Hatari Tablelands

4. Garden of the Gods Page 4

Go inside the Pyramid at Maculate Fringe and there is a ramp leading up. Before you reach the hero point, there is a sand portal that your jackal mount can go through if you have shifting sands mastery.

5. Garden of the Gods Page 5

On the cliffs just to the east of Temple of Kormir. Need springer with high vault to get up on those cliffs or glide to here from Page 4. If high vaulting, I recommend going from the back of the temple as there is an easier cliff to climb on.

6. Garden of the Gods Page 6

Near the vista just west of Maculate Fringe.

7. Garden of the Gods Page 7

Inside Glint’s Legacy area, pretty tricky to get to so if you don’t know how to get up there, watch the video. Requires springer with high vault.

Lost Lore of Desert Highlands

Completing this achievement gives you 3 AP and 1 Mastery Point with a lore book you can read.

1. The Legacy Page 01

This one is located inside The Deadhouse (not Deadlock Sweep) and requires Jackal Shifting Sands mastery. Go through the portal outside and you will see it in the first room next to a statue.

2. The Legacy Page 02

On top of this rock outcropping with lots of forged

3. The Legacy Page 03

2. Dispatch Page 02

Slightly above the sulfurous ground

1. Palawa Joko I Page 01

Found right below the Vehjin Palace. There is a small ring structure.

2. Palawa Joko I Page 02

If you have the Spearmarshal’s Plea from doing the griffon quest line, you can port pretty close to the page.

3. Palawa Joko I Page 03

Go to the Boneyard POI in the Necropolis and then take any of the sand portals inside the bone yard. After you go through the portal, take a look to your left and you will find the page.

4. Palawa Joko I Page 04

Near the Market Ruins waypoint on top of a structure with some trees.

5. Palawa Joko I Page 05

Unfortunately you need a griffon to reach this one. You have to get up on this higher dome first and then griffon your way across to the top of the big red dome. You should reach the top of the dome just barely with the griffon.

6. Palawa Joko I Page 06

To reach this page, you also need to climb up on the higher rock near and then glide/griffon across. Luckily you don’t need to use the griffon for this one and glider will do just fine.

7. Palawa Joko I Page 07

You also need a griffon for this page. Go straight from Market Ruins waypoint and jump up to King Joko’s Sky Garden POI. Then use your griffon to fly to the dome nearby that has the sand-worn page.

Side note: the book you get for the reward for this achievement (and for each zone) is not yet enabled, so don’t throw it away yet!

If you completed the collection for a zone you can rebuy it from any heartvendor for 50s

I found Book of Vlast page 5 near the large chest guarded by a Veteran Owl Griffon on the building south above Derelict Delve WP.

Found it, thanks!

I am doing the Desolation Lost Lore Achievement right now. If you need the locations, please let me know how I can send you some pictures.

can you point out the location for page 2?

Thanks for the guide. Does anyone know where Book of Vlast Page 07 is? It’s the last one I need.

I have it, but unfortunately I don’t recall where I got it from. Either the delves or a branded area, but that might not be helpful. I could also be wrong about even that much. Sorry. 🙁

Hello that’s ok I will check in those areas.

#7 is just NE of Vantage Scree POI, at a Taimi contact spot.

Thanks! Now I have it completed.

Thanks a lot I will check there tonight ^_^

Page 07: Thanks for narrowing down the location. Here are some screenshots to help others.

Page 4 of Vlast is just south of the “sheltered tree” from the griffon egg collection. Northwest where there’s a mastery and a vista right by each other. There’s a campfire with two veteran ogres by it. The page is sitting by the fire.

Page 04: SE of the the Rough Mountain griffon egg. West of the map text ‘Windshear Scarps’

anyone knows where page 3 is?

Shoot. I didn’t realize page 3 wasn’t in the guide yet. All I can add is that I found it either escorting Second Spear Nayrim or while going to the griffon eggs. That narrows the map a little.

Hmm it is already in the guide, should see it when you refresh

I think I had this guide open in two different tabs and one was updated and one wasn’t. 🙂

Page #3 is located just south of POI Nimbose Butte, a ledge below, next to a small tree.

Thank you!

thanks

so….are we gonna see a guide for the lost store stuff in the rest of the maps? desolation etc

Yes, just finished up elon highlands, I am doing the achievements map by map

Here’s pages 5-7 for Lost Lore of the Desolation. I don’t remember pages 1-4. I wasn’t paying attention when I found them.

Page 5. West of Joko’s Domain Waypoint and east of Lone-Tree Hill Vista. On top of the pillar near the eastern side cliff.

Page 6. Southeast of Wayward Watch in the cliffs with scarabs.

Page 7. Located in the cliffs above the Jackal portal from Springer’s Ladder. Easiest way there is to travel east from Village of Purity.

Feel free to reply with pages 1-4. 🙂

Thx bud, Gonna try to add some more info if you haven’t found the rest yet. #6’s closest waypoint is [&BMEKAAA=] Lair of the Forgotten.

That’ll work. Thanks, friend!

Pages 1-4, Desolation. Enjoy

I believe that top picture (first and second pictures) by [&BNwKAAA=] (Bonestrand Waypoint) is #3, because I had already had that one.

Images 3 and 4 are page #1. I springered nw up from The Darklands Waypoint [&BKMKAAA=], rode nw, and griffon’d the rest of the way. Pretty simple.

Images 5 and 6 are page #4. From Sand Jackal Run Waypoint [&BHcKAAA=], Jackal through the first portal nw, jackal across breach, and through another portal. Turn around, and backtrack across wooden bridges, then griffon across.

And the last two images are page #2. Simple ride from The Darklands Waypoint [&BKMKAAA=] east, then jump down and glide to the yellow outcropping below.
