Avowed: All Dawnshore Treasure Map Locations & Rewards

by

In the game Avowed, Dawnshore serves as the initial significant location and introduces a special type of side quests that involve treasure maps and hints leading to the discovery of rare weapons and armor. These treasure maps, obtainable from vendors scattered throughout the Living Lands for a reasonable amount of Skeyt, often feature intriguing and puzzling clues alongside pictures of physical structures or sceneries where the hidden treasures are concealed. At Dawnshore, there are three treasure maps and chests currently accessible: the Intimidating Feline Codpiece, Woedica’s Inheritance, and Captain Henqua’s Spoils.

As an ardent admirer, let me share some exciting tidbits about the treasure maps I stumbled upon in Avowed’s Dawnshore:

1. Solving the Intimidating Feline Codpiece treasure map will earn you Stelgaer’s Pride, a distinctive medium armor set that adds a touch of elegance to your character.

2. Completing Woedica’s Inheritance will net you the Gloves of the Strangler, a pair of unique gloves that boost your chances of landing critical hits, making combat more exhilarating.

3. For those who successfully unravel Captain Henqua’s Spoils, a unique shield named Wind and Wave awaits as a reward, adding an extra layer of protection to your character.

These treasure maps are designed to help you get the hang of how these types of quests work. Rest assured, the challenges ahead will be more daunting! Here’s a guide on where to find all three treasure maps in Dawnshore, their hidden treasures, and the rewards they offer.

Intimidating Feline Codpiece Treasure Map Location & Reward

Awards Stelgaer’s Pride Near Watcher’s Mirror

As a gamer, I managed to get my hands on the dauntingly named “Intimidating Feline Codpiece” treasure map from Lynna, a merchant in Claviger’s Landing. The price was reasonable enough for Skeyt. This map offers a sneak peek into an area hidden under Watcher’s Mirror, which I can reach by moving towards the Watcher’s Mirror tunnel, then turning northeast and sticking to the path until I spot a dropoff. After taking a leap of faith down there, I followed the winding path until I encountered some colossal skeletons over a chasm. From that vantage point, if I glance to my left, a tiny tunnel appears. This leads me up to a breakable wooden barrier. Beyond this barricade lies Stelgaer’s Pride, the reward for the Intimidating Feline Codpiece treasure.

Selgaer’s Pride is a distinctive, uncommon medium armor set that boasts a bonus of +2. This set has basic stats offering 18% Damage Reduction and an extra 15% Damage Reduction. It comes with penalties of 35 units in Maximum Stamina and 30 units in Maximum Essence. This armor is equipped with an enchantment that bestows a special capability upon the wearer, along with a buff to Stamina regeneration. The Bloodied Fury skill triggers the Barbaric Shout when you sustain damage exceeding 30% of your maximum health. The Lesser Relentless aspect of this enchantment increases your Stamina regeneration rate by 5%. While Selgaer’s Pride serves as a decent starting armor, it can also be dismantled for valuable materials needed in unique item crafting.

Woedica’s Inheritance Treasure Map Location & Rewards

Awards The Gloves Of The Strangler Near Gods’ Gate

The map leading to Woedica’s Inheritance treasure is bought from Sanza, a known figure involved in the Cartographer quests across the Living Lands. This treasure map hint suggests a concealed location along what appears to be a fortress wall, likely referring to the walls encircling Paridis. The Woedica’s Inheritance is hidden on the path leading northward toward Avowed’s Woedica Shrine, which explains its name. To locate this treasure, begin at the Gods’ Gate Beacon and proceed towards the city entrance, veering left before you reach the stairs. Navigate through the rocks forming a V shape and keep the wall on your right until you encounter what seems like a dead end.

A secret button tucked beside the pink trinket near the wall will reveal a concealed door to your left. Inside, you’ll stumble upon a chest holding the “Gloves of the Strangler“, an exclusive pair of gloves that boost your Critical Hit Chance by 3% and Stealth Attack Damage by 15%. These gloves are ideal for a stealth ranger character or to enhance your critical hit probability. They’re relatively simple to obtain early in your Dawnshore journey, making it wise to secure them before tackling major bounties or quests.

Captain Henqua’s Spoils Treasure Map Location & Rewards

Awards The Wind And Wave Shield Near The Old Pargrun Wall

The final map leading to Captain Henqua’s hidden loot in Dawnshore is called “Captain Henqua’s Spoils.” You’ll find it at the summit of the lighthouse beyond Claviger’s Landing. This treasure map points northward along a river, leading you towards a bridge. It’s essential to note that this spot lies east of the Old Pargrun Wall, and a bit of swimming is necessary to reach it. The most straightforward way to discover this place is by jumping into the river from the Watermill and then following the river north until you can see the bridge depicted in the picture. Keep an eye out for a large waterfall on your right side. Another option is to encounter a pair of soldiers before a lift; taking that lift will transport you directly to the desired location.

Swim underwater, seek a small cave covered in seaweed. On the opposite side of that cave, find a chest with a Wind and Wave shield lying on the ground nearby. This high-quality shield has initial stats: 49 Block Efficiency, 20 Stability, 140 Parry Efficiency, and 20 Elemental Resistance. The enchantments on this shield are Lesser Quickness, which increases your movement speed by 10%, and Lesser Freeze-Proofed, granting a 20% resistance to frost accumulation. This is one of the best shields you can obtain early in Avowed, making it a valuable addition to your treasure map findings in Dawnshore.
