Finding the Robe of the Arcane Cheater Treasure Map¶

Purchase this treasure map from Ihaka, a merchant who set up their shop in the Deadfall Highlands. Head north from the fast travel point near Tago’s Tower and then go south once you reach a clearing. The map will cost 1680 coins and while that isn’t cheap, the reward more than makes up for it.

Locating the Robe of the Arcane Cheater¶

Getting this treasure involves heading to the body of water south of the Ancient Lakebed. Sprint south from the Eagle’s Reach Party Camp and you’ll find this location near the Kukae Maka bounty. Once you get here, you’ll find a cave nestled within the cliff. Use the path to the left to climb the cliff and drop into this cave. A couple of blue mushrooms grow below this opening so use them to guide your fall. Head in and you’ll find a chest with the Robes of Surpassing Brilliance and some other items. That wraps up the task of deciphering the Robe of the Arcane Cheater treasure map in Avowed.
