Walkthrough[edit]
- Mechanics
- Achievement is repeatable, and the chest upon completion gives you the items that go towards generation 3 legendary weapons, just like map completion for earlier generations.
- Lanterns that have already been lit are not interactable anymore until the achievement is completed. Therefore it is not possible to waste Jade Power Charges.
- After completing a map, you must re-enter the map in order to see the lanterns.
