Notes

• Several of the collection items are purchased from heart vendors or merchants for a total cost of 11,088 and 21 and 12 . The four (4) major items that you need to craft have recipes that need to be bought from Grandmaster Craftsman Hobbs for 20,020 .
• The "Show your Power" , "Friend of..." , and "Bring ... to Rest" sections can be completed in any order at any time, but must be completed before taming the spirit. The Raven Egg must be obtained and consecrated in full before it can be hatched, and after hatching it must be fed, taught to fly, and housed before preparing/priming the raven.
• Any of the "Bring the X to rest" items are awarded automatically, but are not actual objects and do not enter the players inventory.
• ¹Friend of Rabbits can be obtained by either completing the event Shoo rabbits back into their pen, or bought from Dena without completing the event.
• ²Friend of the Owl Spirit may also be earned by completing the event Protect the owl spirits from Jormag's minions a second time after having already collected the Friend of the Owls.
• You must return the Ancient Dwarven Texts to Ogden in the Durmand Priory rather than the Chamber of Secrets Headquarters.
• Some items may not drop the first time an event is completed and may need to be repeated in order to be obtained.

Trivia

• Some parts of the collection (namely Incubation Box, Feed Herring to Your Raven Chick, Nesting Materials) are reminiscent of the scavenger hunt for the Black Moa Chick in Guild Wars 1.
