Granite Lode[edit]

In a normally inaccessible location at the top of a cliff in east of Crystal Oasis is a Rich Granite Lode: http://i.imgur.com/NMuHqxO.jpg

You can't actually harvest any granite though, it just gives 1 piece of orichalcum & some empyreal fragments, and breaks after one pickaxe swing. But, if anyone wants to add it to the page anyways under resource nodes, feel free (I have no idea how to do it correctly myself tbh) - if it's still there post daily reset I can try and get more proof / better pictures if desired.

Added, thanks! —Ventriloquist 23:38, 12 August 2017 (UTC)
You're welcome! Here are some better pictures of the Granite Lode in case it's helpful: http://i.imgur.com/lm5Me4Z.jpg http://i.imgur.com/jdEaNjV.jpg73.182.157.38 08:56, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
I got my last Chunk of Granite from that node. I think it only gives it to you when the collection is unlocked. Oh woops, that was from the beta. Was probably just disabled. Oops!--Rain Spell (talk) 06:39, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

It's not disabled. Just got a Chunk of Granite from gathering the node.

Map event rewards[edit]

There are a few items (Caravan Accounting Records, Ley-Infused Sand, etc.) that you only get from completing events in the area. They aren't map rewards in the traditional sense, where it's a reward track. Pretty much every event gives you a shaky chest with some of these rewards. Maybe it's just a beta thing until they add a reward track to the map? So should we do more than just add notes to the items saying, "Awarded from completing events in Crystal Oasis"? --Rain Spell (talk) 21:18, 14 August 2017 (UTC)

Since we don't know if they are unique to this map, or all the new expansion maps, I would personally leave them out for now Vriesdiep (talk) 21:46, 14 August 2017 (UTC)

Map completion rewards[edit]

I just completed the map, for a 8001xp reward. No exotic item, no materials, no key, just the xp. Pretty disappointing :/ 77.136.85.25 00:02, 23 September 2017 (UTC)

It's very likely a bug; stay tuned for any patch notes that might acknowledge it. —Ventriloquist 00:08, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
From friends>Currently many aren't getting specialization chests for completing maps in the new zones. (The ones that go towards collection achieves.) Similar to when HoT came out before.--Rain Spell (talk) 01:51, 23 September 2017 (UTC)

Getting there[edit]

Looks like there's a wrong information: "The Lionguard Aircrew at Sanctum Harbor in Lion's Arch will take here any character who has already unlocked this zone through the storyline". I've completed Path of Fire storyline in another character (same account), but Lionguard Aircrew does nothing but greet me. Tried with two level 80 characters. --Mtsa.4031 (talk) 13:46, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

But have you tried it with the actual character that has completed the prologue and arrived to Crystal Oasis via story? Me and some other people tested it thoroughly and it indeed only works for the exact characters that finished the few story steps to arrive into the desert. If the character has not completed the story, they obviously will not be able to use that method. ~Sime 16:13, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
As Sime pointed out, they take any character that has completed the first pof story mission. —Kvothe (talk) 16:53, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

there is also a portal above augary's shadow waypoint
