Last Epoch Desert Treasure Quest Walkthrough and Guide
You can begin the Desert Treasure questline in Last Epoch after finishing The Desert Waystation quest. An NPC named The Oracle starts the quest in Titan's Canyon by mentioning a valuable relic hidden somewhere in the desert sands.
Using clues and hints, your next goal becomes locating this Desert Treasure hidden in the desert. Here is a complete walkthrough so you can complete the quest smoothly.
Step 1: Find the Hidden Tomb Entrance
Your main goal here is to find a hidden tomb in the Radiant Dunes area. Look for the entrance along the walls as you explore the area. You will notice that the tomb will have glowing glyphs, indicating you've found the right place to proceed with the Desert Treasure quest.
Step 2: Defeat the Gold Elemental
Upon entering the mysterious tomb, you'll need to battle a tough enemy, the Gold Elemental. It is guarding the treasures within. Defeat it using your best skills, and it will drop a special relic. Collect the relic to advance in the quest.
Step 3: Speak to the Relic Merchant in Maj'elka
With the valuable desert relic in hand, travel to the city of Maj'elka in search of some context on your findings. A merchant in the upper district center claims to have knowledge regarding such relics.
Dialogue options will direct you towards the Maj'elka Slums area next, where a key figure named the Scalebane Fence stays. This shady NPC should know more about the relic's worth.
Step 4: Locate the Scalebane Fence
The path to the Slums has a few obstacles. You may need to pay off or battle past a Scalebane Bodyguard blocking access to this dangerous district. Once in the Slums, head east across a river, then northeast across a second river to finally reach the location where the Scalebane Fence lurks.
When you speak to the NPC, he will offer you to buy the treasure for 5,000 gold. If you haggle, stating it's a low offer, you can get 20,000 gold along with the quest rewards. This helps if you've already paid the Bodyguard. If your Idol Container has not reached 20 slots, completing this quest adds 2 Idol Slots for you.
Scalebane Fence also runs a shop with equipment and Idols, mostly of Rare rarity. He's the only vendor selling Idols throughout the game.
