Swords of Legends Online Treasure Hunting Guide & Tips

 

Introduction

This guide is meant to be a collection for the various treasure pieces that are scattered throughout. They contain an overall map of locations, the name, the number it appears in under the Collectibles tab, and most importantly, an image of the treasure in its natural habitat. It may also have a blurb if its location is a tricky one. If you know where you’re searching, click the sections to jump to the region. If you know the name or number of what you’re searching, CTRL+F and I highly recommend it as with more collectibles this will turn into a chunky guide.

The guide is currently up to date.

Phantasm spawn locations will be added periodically, but is just meant to be a bonus at the end of the guide.

Enjoy~!

Quick Treasure Overview

When searching for treasure you can check out how many you’re still missing by pulling out your map. The treasure icon on the top center of the map will show how many you’ve collected and how many total in the region are left. There will be a grayed out treasure chest at the location once you collect, and if you hover over it, the map will tell you what it was. And finally, treasure progress is maintained across all characters (hence some images lacking the treasure as they were found before the guide).

When near a treasure, a tracker appears on your screen helping you hone in on its location and the icon disappears into a flashing bar once you’re considered close enough. When pinpointing further, treasures generate a sound that gets progressively louder the closer you are and when you hear the chiming of bells, you are practically standing right on top of it (not that it helps if you don’t know where to look — just ask Li Rui’s toes and RIP if you’re looking for Pure AIr).

This is different from the Treasure Maps that can be purchased with various vendors at different qualities. Once purchased, get to a Dragonstar, and open the “Ancenstral Records”. Under the [Natural Scientist] tab, you will find the Treasure Compass ability and use it on the Dragonstar. The map will prompt you with a simple puzzle mini-game that helps you pinpoint [Treasure Map – Hidden Items] which appears as a map with an ‘X’ on your tracker.

There are 3 types of treasures/icons that can appear on the tracker:

• Treasure chest: the collectibles in the game and the point of this guide
• “X-marks the spot” map: resource chests available after purchasing maps
• Blue paw print: these are animals or “Phantasms” that you can mind-meld with, turn into an inventory item, and bring back home to your residence for decor.

Phantasms! (12)

Sometimes you just want a critter at your residence — well, it’s time to mind meld with the local fauna. Phantasms appear intermittently throughout the world and remain until collected. There is only one at a given time in a location. In other words, once it spawns, if the person next to you collects the critter, you won’t be able to get it. So work fast! Now even without the treasure noise, you can tell them apart due to the hearts bubbling out of them. Literally.

Similar to the above treasures, I will post a picture of the Phantasm in the wild along with a small section of the map it was found in. The number after the header will indicate the amount of locations I’ve added.
