Important information needed[edit]

1. Now that Seis has moved to her 3rd map, can the precise interval between each of her moves be confirmed? When exactly will she move to Bloodtide Coast next?

2. How often can an account do each of the past maps' sensor hunt to get the large amount of map bonus rewards? Is it time-gated as a daily? --138.75.231.164 18:22, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

Late in replying to this, but you may want to use the forums or reddit to crowd source those details. If you discover any details, please feel free to add them to the page. Thanks! G R E E N E R 17:18, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
Tried it out, and it is at least daily per character. Not a bad way to get 4 events' worth of rewards. SarielV 20 x 20px 17:53, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
Stupid question: "6 tasks completed" - is this one per area, or does doing the task again on a second day in the same zone contribute towards getting the Destroyer Weapon Crate? -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 17:16, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
The six 'tasks' are talking to Seis (counts as one) and then finding the sensors in all five locations (gives one task per location, five tasks in total), so no, repeating an area will not award a task. —Ventriloquist 17:21, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

Eventual destination[edit]

Now known to be Ember Bay in the Ring of Fire. SarielV 20 x 20px 20:22, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

Feedback 2016/09/18[edit]

Final location in Malchor's Leap, rather than in Southsun (though no 'quest' there). --Inculpatus cedo (talk) 23:54, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

Yellow marker[edit]

Not very important but this is kind of bugging me. Doesn't the "yellow" marker look green to anyone else? Salvatos (talk) 19:51, 6 October 2016 (UTC)

Definitely. I came here to see if anyone had said that. On two different monitors on different computers, and in the wiki on an Android tablet. Why is it being called yellow? 68.33.90.92 13:43, 10 October 2016 (UTC)
You two are most certainly correct (unless our colour perception is entirely off, which could be the case as colours are culturally viewed differently sometimes); I've corrected this. Thank you for pointing this out. User Incarnazeus Signature.pngtalk 13:54, 10 October 2016 (UTC)

This is ridiculously easy since mounts[edit]

The sensor works pretty well from a mount, as long as you're stationary (so a griffon isn't much help, except charging in the right direction at high speed and ignoring the terrain). A springer and a skimmer works really well, you can use the skimmer to go straight over most terrain obstacles, the skimmer to go over the water at speed.

I just completed all five of the maps, all 25 sensors, in less than an hour this way. Even Southsun Cove, the only one that was really a challenge, only took about 15 minutes, although this was helped by two of the sensors being in the cave with the Karka Queen and she had just been killed when I arrived. The challenge where was working out where, height wise, on the spiral down they were.

It's worth pointing out that the scanner gives odd results unless the terrain is pretty flat or you're on the local peak, as the sensor markers can be buried under the land (which is frustrating until you realise what is going on). Also, whether they're yellow or green, the actual sensors you're looking for can be hard to spot against both the white in snowy maps and the green in other maps and can be hidden in bushes and things. I'm convinced one was actually IN a tree but I could recover it, even though I couldn't see it. --Eloise (talk) 16:08, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

Impact of Lag[edit]

Lag could allow you to click and retrieve the same sensor twice, resulting in less sensors you have to find. I just finished a map with 4 instead of 5 sensors.
