Welcome to the most annoying achievement in this game.

To complete No Stone Unturned you need all collectibles in the game. Here's what you need and what we already covered in this solution:

10 Overlooks (Trailblazer Challenge)
4 Tombs of the Legionnaires (Grave Historian Challenge)
25 Arcanist Archives (Arcanist Archives Challenge)
25 Dominion Intel (Dominion Intel Challenge)
25 Outlaw Intel (Outlaw History Challenge)
25 Scar Intel (Scar Intel Challenge)
25 Sentinel Archives (Sentinel Archives Challenge)
80 Misplaced Writings
80 Arcanist Runes
~~1 ??? (Unknown)~~ - Update: This is not needed according to some comments.
9 Hidden Places
63 Districts
30 Landmarks

You can keep track of your collectibles by pressing

on your gamepad. Browse to Challenges -> Exploration -> Bastion Collectibles.

Let's start off easy: There are achievements associated with each zone for the districts, landmarks and hidden places. I added videos on how to get these to each of the achievements already. If I missed one just google it - pretty easy to find it on Youtube! Don't start these early, makes much more sense to just do this after you're done with the main story. You will be visiting many of the locations during missions and contracts. I was 80% done with most of the explorer achievements by the time I started to work on them (after main story).

63 Districts, 30 Landmarks, 9 Hidden Places:

The Explorer: Ruins of Shadowmark achievement in Anthem worth 48 pointsDiscover all districts, landmarks, and hidden places in Ruins of Shadowmark.

The Explorer: Valley of Tarsis achievement in Anthem worth 52 pointsDiscover all districts, landmarks, and hidden places in Valley of Tarsis.

The Explorer: Academy Ruins achievement in Anthem worth 46 pointsDiscover all districts, landmarks, and hidden places in Academy Ruins.

The Explorer: East Gate achievement in Anthem worth 38 pointsDiscover all districts, landmarks, and hidden places in East Gate.

The Explorer: Emerald Abyss achievement in Anthem worth 33 pointsDiscover all districts, landmarks, and hidden places in Emerald Abyss.

The Explorer: Eastern Reach achievement in Anthem worth 40 pointsDiscover all districts, landmarks, and hidden places in Eastern Reach.

The Explorer: Fortress of Dawn achievement in Anthem worth 42 pointsDiscover all districts, landmarks, and hidden places in Fortress of Dawn.

The Explorer: Monument Watch achievement in Anthem worth 31 pointsDiscover all districts, landmarks, and hidden places in Monument Watch.

The Explorer: Great Falls Canyon achievement in Anthem worth 51 pointsDiscover all districts, landmarks, and hidden places in Great Falls Canyon.

The Explorer: High Road achievement in Anthem worth 39 pointsDiscover all districts, landmarks, and hidden places in High Road.

Combine these with the Trailblazer Challenge (see video below):

10 Overlooks (Trailblazer Challenge)

4 Tombs of the Legionnaires (Grave Historian Challenge)
You will most likely have this already if you are almost done with the game. You earn these while you progress through the main story. If you need a guide for this here's another video explaining exactly how this works:

1 ??? Unknown Challenge (Clam before the Storm)
Update Several people have posted that this challenge is NOT needed for the achievement. I will still leave it here (just in case).

First off a huge thank you to BaggaOne for finding this and to Zasta 360GameTV for making a video guide to show how this is done.

You need to equip the Storm Javelin and go to the clam location shown in the video below. This will unlock the 'Clam before the Storm' challenge. Nice wordplay, Bioware.

80 Arcanist Runes
These are actually three different challenges that add up to 80 runes. You collect the runes and they will add up until a challenge is complete. The counter will then reset and start you on the 2nd or 3rd challenge.

The three challenges in question are Hidden Messages (10 Runes), Footsteps of Idris (20 Runes) and Vassa's Triumph (50 Runes) which adds up to a total of 80. These runes can be found during missions, contracts and while playing Freeplay. Unlike some other collectibles, these will always be in the same spot and disappear once collected.

If you progress through the story normally you will already have looted quite a few of these. Good for you because then you don't need to spend as much time working for the rest with the video guide below.

Some general advice after completing this challenge:
- This is going to be annoying. Take your time and collect other things as well while you hunt for the runes.
- Always go to the exact location that is being shown on the map, just being nearby won't help.
- Try to look for landmarks when he's showing locations in the video below. These locations can look slightly different during day/night cycles so it's not always easy to figure out where you need to be.
- Underground areas (ark symbol) usually have at least one more rune than what's being shown in the video and are easy to spot since most of these places are dimly lit. Keep your eyes open.
- Storm javelin is best for this kind of activity

25 Arcanist Archives/25 Sentinel Archives
Just as the Scar/Outlaw/Dominion intel these are random spawns. If you see Sentinels or Arcanists walking around somewhere or a camp then there's one of these archives nearby sometimes. However, Arcanist and Sentinel Archives seemed to be a lot rarer than the enemy intel pieces for me. Found this video online that helped me out immensely in getting this done. What this guy is doing is that he found one Sentinel spot and kept farming it over and over again.

Check video but don't get too excited just yet. Don't have to watch the whole thing, just get a general idea of what he's doing:

I couldn't get it to work this way initially. The Sentinel location wasn't there as in the vid but I found an Arcanist location a bit farther back in the same cave. I was flying back to it but it didn't respawn right away. What did happen was that it was there again after I was flying back to the location after about 3 minutes had passed.

Location despawned after picking the intel up five times this way. In one instance the Sentinel location in the video spawned. Managed to loot it another 5 times and it despawned as well with no more spawns in the cave.

A few Freeplays later this happened: Another Arcanist spawn near where the Legionnaires tomb is but this time it worked exactly as in the vid above. Even better: Found another Arcanist archive location on the flight path and managed to alternate between these two until I was done with the 25 intel pieces - took me 5 minutes this way.

One more video: Location above only gave me Arcanist archives, found another spot where you can get Sentinel Archives pretty easily most of the time. Note that getting two spawns this close together is just luck.

25 Scar Intel/Dominion Intel/Outlaw History
Just as the archives these are random spawns all over the Freeplay map. These do not spawn in the separate areas in Freeplay. Look out for huts, supply racks, and similar objects. Near them, you can sometimes find these intel pieces. There are plenty and you will get these as you spend more time in Freeplay.

Contrary to popular belief I don't think you need to complete any world events to make these spawn, I often found them in random spots on the map if there were Scar and some storage containers nearby then I would usually check for Intel and often found one. Once looted they disappear for everyone until they respawn.

If you need pointers here are three videos that show you possible (!) locations for the intel pieces. Again, these are random spawns and may not be there when you try to find them in these locations. However, it's a good vid to show you what you're looking for in the world. After a few of these, you will know what to look out for in the world.

Now the good news: These respawn just like the Arcanist/Sentinel Archives so you can probably get away with just knowing one of these locations. Here's a short vid to prove it. The intel was looted once, I flew off and back and it had respawned in a slightly different location. Sometimes it also switched to a spawn in front of the underground area there but it was always in this area. This should work with any intel you find as long as other players do not stop by and start looting and stick around.

80 Misplaced Writings
You've made it this far so don't give up! The 80 misplaced writings work just like the runes do. They are fixed spawns in the world (Freeplay only) and can only be picked up once. That's good news! The bad news is that they aren't glowing green objects but small pieces of paper that can be just about anywhere.

Three challenges that are associated with this part of the achievement. Once the counter is reached for each challenge it will reset and progress to the next one. The challenge names are Mederines' Disciple (10 Writings), Mederines' Order (30 Writings) and Mederines' Peer (40 Writings).

Info from ArkhmInmate0801: If you can't find a rune or writing, just create a new pilot and re-collect ones you already have. I finished up the achievement by creating new pilots and collecting 10 easily accessible writings. Challenge progress carries over across pilots, but collectibles repopulate.

I used the method from ArkhmInmate0801 to finish the last writings. Be aware of the fact that getting a new pilot to unlock Freeplay takes about 35-40 minutes. There are quite a few writings very close to the fort in Freeplay. Three are actually right at the entrance and five can be picked up in the cave where you find the Legionnaire temple.

* * *

That's all there is! If you got questions be free to add them to the comments section or get in touch with me on XBL. I'll try to help you out if you can't get this one done.

If you have ideas on how to improve this solution let me know as well.

@LLboxed Not at all : Edited with correct info and added another video for Sentinel/Archavist writings.

Thank you so much @LLboxed

By Russo Saints on 10 Jan 2024 01:56

Over 400

By on 26 Feb 2019 15:09

Awesome work! Thank you for starting the guide.

By on 26 Feb 2019 15:12

Actually I think there are more then 80 runes in the game. I read the list in the comments and this looks like only freeplay? I see a lot of runes in mission areas and contract areas as well.

By Zasta 360GameTV on 26 Feb 2019 15:30

Thanks for starting this guide. I'll be checking back often until I get this achievement... Not sure if I want to bother following that guide for runes yet, based on the comments, but I have a feeling Zasta is correct. If there are more then 80, then its no biggie.

By on 26 Feb 2019 17:17

Some hours later I'm pretty sure there are A LOT of more runes because I played a really long mission / contract (no idea^^) and alone in this "special" area was nearly 15 runes which I found and I can't find this area in the video above (click through, not full watch)

But honestly I don't know if these runes counts to the challenge but there are runes inside, a lot of runes^^

Unfortunately the strategy guide has no (full) maps / list as I read on amazon.com so we will never find out how many are real in this game^^

By Zasta 360GameTV on 26 Feb 2019 19:27

I'm about 60% through the runes now (spent two hours tonight going through it bit by bit) and can also say that there are more runes than in the video. I found another one in the shallow dungeon area in the video for example. However, I also believe that the ones you grabbed during contracts are not going to be available anymore in Freeplay. I am pretty sure I picked up a few around the Fortress of Dawn during a mission and they were no longer there in Freeplay.

More to come. This is without a doubt the most annoying cheevo in the entire game.

By LLboxed on 26 Feb 2019 21:34

@Zasta 360GameTV: If you get a popup on the bottom right of your screen telling you that it was added to a collection (like 2/10 Hidden Messages etc) then it counts. If not - ehh wouldn't bet on it.

By LLboxed on 26 Feb 2019 21:39

Nice job, keep it up.

By DJ RJester on 27 Feb 2019 06:49

@BaggaOne: Nice one! Will try to find this later today and maybe make a video of it to add to the solution. Thanks for the Info!

By LLboxed on 27 Feb 2019 09:33

I believe I discovered the ??? (Unknown) challenge.

In the Ruins of Shadowmark, near the Sunken Gardens landmark, there is an underwater passageway that takes you to The Vault.

While in this underwater passageway there is a Salvage spot. When I salvaged it, I completed a challenge called "The Clam Before the Storm" - Found the Clam Before the Storm. After completing this I no longer have the ??? appearing under the Bastion Collectibles tab.

If you're having trouble finding it, it's closer to the sunken gardens entrance than it is to the vault. And it's near the bottom in a castle/brick looking area with a broken wall.

*I was storm javelin. Someone mentioned it might not appear on other javelins. Hence the Clam before the Storm.

By BaggaOne on 27 Feb 2019 11:18

Here is a video from this location and it looks like it is enough when you swimming / appear in front of this clam with a storm javelin ;)

By Zasta 360GameTV on 27 Feb 2019 15:07

Thanks for the vid! Quality stuff as always.

By LLboxed on 27 Feb 2019 15:13

I hate collectibles

By on 27 Feb 2019 15:23

Nice job Zasta

By on 27 Feb 2019 19:13

If anyone finds a collectible called “Marl’s Big Idea”, please let me know.

By DraKeN9nE on 28 Feb 2019 07:59

So far so good but to the OP - you can mark off the questionable one. The commenter above was right that the pearl using the Storm suit is it. Also, you say 40 runes for the last and it's actually 50. You had the 80 number right but you mistyped.

It's also worth noting in your solution that the intel isn't the same for everyone all the time. The locations are preset but I've loaded into some freeplay lobbies where they are there and some where they aren't. it seems to be placed in random spots during random times.

By Dislodged Puma on 28 Feb 2019 16:38

I need help with sentinel intel....anyone got some tips?

By D3V1Lz ASSAZZ1N on 01 Mar 2019 04:22

I may be on to something check what this guy is doing: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_tbKBtYhCHI

Now this doesn’t work for me exactly like he does it but I got to respawn the archive multiple times now by traveling back to the location after about 3 minutes.

Initially there was a location for Arcanist intel a bit farther back in the same cave. It despawned after grabbing it 5 times and spawned the Sentinel supplies as in the vid above. I have picked this intel up multiple times now in the same Freeplay session.

By LLboxed on 01 Mar 2019 08:01

Update: The Sentinel supplies location despawned after grabbing it 5 times. No more spawn points for intel were available in the cave.

Started a new Freeplay twice. First time, nothing. 2nd time there was another Arcanist location near where the Tomb of Legionaire is. Leaving and returning after a few minutes made it lootable again.

General advice: If you find Arcanist/Sentinel intel check site again after a few minutes as you may be able to loot it again multiple times.

By LLboxed on 01 Mar 2019 08:26

Update 3: Managed to get this to work in a different Freeplay session, guess you have to get a little bit lucky to get this to work like I did. Adding another video to the solution when it's done uploading.

By LLboxed on 01 Mar 2019 08:52

If you want you can use my vid which I have posted for the ??? challenge ;)

By Zasta 360GameTV on 01 Mar 2019 09:29

Will do, Zasta! Thanks!

By LLboxed on 01 Mar 2019 10:03

any have any type of guide for the misplaced writings? these sound like they are fixed items in freeplay...anyone with more info?

By D3V1Lz ASSAZZ1N on 01 Mar 2019 10:37

GamingWithAbyss is working on a guide for these, he posted yesterday that hes almost done and will post this asap.

By LLboxed on 01 Mar 2019 11:58

Playing this on PSN, so can't upvote, but great guide and good job on the constant updating!

By KasugaSama on 01 Mar 2019 18:06

If you can't find a rune or writing, just create a new pilot and re-collect ones you already have. I finished up the achievement by creating new pilots and collecting 10 easily accessible writings. Challenge progress carries over across pilots, but collectables repopulate.

By on 01 Mar 2019 22:01

@ArkhmInmate0801: Pure gold! Thanks for this.

By LLboxed on 01 Mar 2019 22:07

So possible solution for the arcanist/sentinal archive farms. I had a sentinel archive in Serpents View than traveled two zones away (through The Iron Serpent and turned around in Crescent Lake), turned around and went back and it was there again. I went from 2 to 25 Sentinel archives. I'm not sure if I was insanely lucky with it not despawning the location or not. Maybe someone could recreate it in another part of the map.

Edit: I managed to recreate this with Dominion archives. (specifically from Shadowmark, through Helena's Walk, turn in Tracks of Midderon) went from 3 to completed.

By Re1easeDaBeast on 01 Mar 2019 22:50

Congrats Re1easeDaBeast. Definitely makes this achievement much more doable!

By LLboxed on 01 Mar 2019 23:49

An easier way to knock those intel out is find one that spawns by a tomb door. Just go in and out of the tomb and most of the time the collectable will respawn. It seems to only stop respawning if another player picks it up or a world event/enemy group spawns nearby.

By on 02 Mar 2019 00:09

Tried this and it didn't work for me. I'll try again tomorrow.

By LLboxed on 02 Mar 2019 00:11

Sometimes I had a hard time getting it to work. Other times I was able to get all 25 for a challenge in the same location in less than an hour. IMO, trying to get this to work is faster than doing cycles through the world locations.

By on 02 Mar 2019 02:41

Gave up because it never worked for me but found the flying back and forth path to be very reliable in the end. If anyone got pointers or info on the tomb door let us know and I will gladly add it to the solution.

By LLboxed on 02 Mar 2019 10:48

so how far in the story do we have to progress for creating a new pilot to find more misplaced writings?
do any of the ones inside the fort count for the misplace writings?

By D3V1Lz ASSAZZ1N on 02 Mar 2019 15:49

If you create a new pilot you will have to play through the game until you reach Fort Tarsis. When you leave for your first mission, jump off the launch platform on the left and there is a cave with 5 writings inside. There are also several more easy to find writings in the nearby area. I would get about 10 each time I made a new pilot.

By on 02 Mar 2019 18:36

I guess I'll follow this guide tomorrow, unlocked every achievement. But this.

Loved the game though, but boo hiss to collectibles haha :(

By anthony2690 on 03 Mar 2019 06:45

@DraKeN9nE Marl's Big Idea was tacked on the wall next to the little staircase where you first meet Marl (at least it was for me).

By MungBard on 03 Mar 2019 08:37

He found it alteady but it did not count towards the cheevo. No collectibles in the Fort do.

By LLboxed on 03 Mar 2019 09:22

The count for Vassa's Triumph is incorrect in the guide. It should be (50 runes) not (40 runes)

By yxkillz on 03 Mar 2019 12:59

I've had a landmark get bugged (have the landmark but it's not complete in challenges) rendering this one unobtainable for me :(

By Sakori on 03 Mar 2019 16:59

@yzkillz: Fixed. Thanks!

By LLboxed on 03 Mar 2019 18:34

Hmmm, I finished "Mederines' Disciple" challenge but it's marked as unfinished in "Distinguished Explorer" challenge. Another achievement in this game that may be bugged :-/

*** EDIT ***
Yeeep, it's bugged:

Hope TA moders finally will start marking chieevos in this game as unobtainable.

By FayMoon on 03 Mar 2019 18:44

I'm really curious as to what broke these for you people. I got lucky I guess.. unlocked every cheevo without any issues. Nine people unlocked No Stone Unturned today so it's not the same for everybody.

By LLboxed on 03 Mar 2019 18:53

@LLboxed - the same with weapons challenges. Lot of people complained here (including me):
Achievements not unlocking?

Maybe all collectible items should be picked up only in freeplay? Maybe I picked up the 10th book during the mission and for some reason "Distinguished Explorer" glitched on me becasue of this? I don't know.

I unlocked all javelin levels (uncommon, rare, legendary...), also unlocked related achievements, but the same requirements for Legendary Freelancer are unmarked. This game is broken in terms of challenges.

By FayMoon on 03 Mar 2019 19:38

@FayMoon: Hard to say! I am quite sure I picked up a lot of stuff during missions as well.
I was suspecting that this got broken with a patch after the launch since I don't know of a single early access person with this kind of problem. Not so sure about that anymore, tho. Hopefully BW will release a patch very soon to fix this!

By LLboxed on 03 Mar 2019 19:50

I don't want to do this sh** damn

By on 03 Mar 2019 20:32

How does making a new pilot work? Is there multiple save slots? Like I won't lose progress on my MW pilot right?

By Dislodged Puma on 04 Mar 2019 12:32

There are three save slots. At the main menu you press X to switch the pilot. You can always delete pilots and create new ones.

By LLboxed on 04 Mar 2019 12:41

Runes dont seem to show up when i use my new pilot

By Io PRoTotypE oI on 04 Mar 2019 14:39

me to no new runes with new pilots i took all that were on other video but still miss 2 dont know why

By Punk Core Gamer on 04 Mar 2019 18:25

i found a new one in the foudery not on the video but it didnt count stay at 48 so definetly glitch for me

By Punk Core Gamer on 04 Mar 2019 19:15

i found a new one in the foudery not on the video but it didnt count stay at 48 so definetly glitch for me

By Punk Core Gamer on 04 Mar 2019 19:31

Im 2 missing aswell and some didnt count when picked up

By Io PRoTotypE oI on 04 Mar 2019 20:29

Im 2 missing aswell and some didnt count when picked up

By Io PRoTotypE oI on 04 Mar 2019 21:01

I can confirm that "Distinguished Explorer" challenge needs "Mederines' Peer" to be completed (10+30+40 notes found), not "Mederines Disciple", as in challenge description. It contains a misleading label.

By FayMoon on 04 Mar 2019 22:47

@FayMoon: Are you sure? Mederines' Peer (40 writings) does not become available until you have completed Mederines' Disciple (10 Writings) and Mederines' Order (30 Writings). Unless they patched something yesterday, that is.

By LLboxed on 05 Mar 2019 09:40

Just to note the Mystery ??? collectible isn't need for the achievement. Mine popped and I hadn't collected that one since I was leaving it for last.

By Moody41 on 05 Mar 2019 23:47

@FayMoon it was already mentioned in the guide that we need to find 80 to complete the challenge... all three “Medrines’ ...” challenges need to be completed, which equates to a total of 80 writings.
In other news, fantastic guide @LLboxed!

By the JeffreyTM on 06 Mar 2019 00:30

Anybody else not having the runes respawn on second character?

By lI KyIo Ren Il on 06 Mar 2019 03:51

@ lI KyIo REN Il, I’ve tried a second pilot and nothing showed up, it does work for the writings though. Also I have just found 3 of the last 5 runes I was missing and my counter hasn’t gone up.

Literally really want to like this game, but so many bugs and glitches is ruining my experience with this game.

By DJ RJester on 06 Mar 2019 12:17

@lI KyIo Ren Il and @DJ RJester, did you finish the contract “Arcanist Runes” on the second character? This is the second or third side quest given by Matthias and it is what unlocks the Arcanist Runes.

By the JeffreyTM on 06 Mar 2019 17:10

This is taking forever!!!!!!!!

By Taipei Kindom on 06 Mar 2019 21:05

I can't even get any outlaw history to spawn

By The Allslayer on 07 Mar 2019 01:10

Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this thread. I used the info here combined with the various maps on https://game-maps.com/anthem/Challenge-Arcanist-Runes.asp and the link CATFISH504 posted above to the map of the writings.

By Wobblo on 07 Mar 2019 10:20

Guys u can do a "new pilot" and just collect the "old" writings again.

By BringMeAmmo on 07 Mar 2019 10:44

Great guide! Thanks :) Maybe it's worth noting in the solution that there are more than 80 runes and writings to collect, so it's okay to miss out some of them and find some in other spots.

By N3croscop3 on 07 Mar 2019 22:12

@the JeffreyTM I was just referring to my previous post that this achievement may be glitched. Requirement for „Distinguished Explorer” contains misleading label in the game menu and pointing it out may be important for people who think (like me back on that stage) that progress of this achievement is not tracked properly.

The guide is perfect, there is no doubt about it.

By FayMoon on 08 Mar 2019 10:16

Thx for the guide. For misplaced writings, this video could be useful. Look the first comment to check the files you need and go directly to the right time in the video. I missed only 12 so I am going to try this today instead of creating a new pilot. https://youtu.be/IpmCaIVQSzI

By ludo10109 on 08 Mar 2019 10:56

Ahh nice! Gaming With Abyss finally uploaded it. Will update the solution with the various notes from the community, thanks guys!

By LLboxed on 08 Mar 2019 12:25

I can confirm from N8 Vision's comment above, I used a second save slot to finish up both "old" Writings and Runes

By DigiTekh on 10 Mar 2019 00:08

Yeah Distinguished Explorer list Mederine's Disciple - but should be Mederine's Peer (this is a bug in game where they have the wrong item listed.

By Onsidic on 10 Mar 2019 03:57

I got the achievement without doing the ??? (Clam before the Storm) after update on March 10, 2019.

By Vrruumm on 10 Mar 2019 13:02

I just needed to say thank you llboxed for all the work you put into this solution.

By AeriBouS on 10 Mar 2019 17:00

I can also confirm that the ??? isn't needed to get the achievement.

By Rashaka1 on 13 Mar 2019 23:11

Well intel seems to alot harder to find now it seems, I have been trying to do the zoning trick and coming back out to the world and each time the item i picked up disappears. Looks like the updates have made this a bit harder to acquire now.

By DigiTekh on 15 Mar 2019 01:07

I can't get the dominion writing to show up?
I've followed the video and I definitely do not already have it but it's never in the location the video shows.
I'm not sure why?
Any help is appreciated
Thanks

By mga74 on 15 Mar 2019 08:37

@mga74: As mentioned in the guide these locations are random. If you can't find it you can try to leave and re-enter freeroam. However, I would advise to just look for them while doing other things in Freeroam and once you found one you can try to farm it.

The video only showcases that the method works.

Good luck finding them!

By LLboxed on 15 Mar 2019 11:16

@ThirtyRekt: Good one! Do you mind if I add your vid to the solution?

By LLboxed on 15 Mar 2019 12:04

Thank you so so much. Just got my 1000G Javelin's Licence. Strong alone, stronger together.

By Grumpy Bake on 18 Mar 2019 01:59

shitski. too bad a new pilot doesnt work for runes. and if it did for you, then you are a liar. 5 of my friends couldnt get it that way either.

IMPORTANT EDIT: You need to finish the "See in the Dark" Side mission to unlock runes for your second pilot/Save slot

I'm stuck on 49/50 Runes. I've completed everything in the game and the rune collection was my last achievement for my 1000g. Well unhappy there is no fix for this. Will Bioware ever sort out this problem so i can complete the game 100%. Who knows. Gutted.

By S3nua on 24 Mar 2019 16:55

very nice guide, already half way for the achievement

By Aura Battler on 03 Apr 2019 06:00

Hey mate, actually had it added for the Misplaced Writings.

Got mixed comments on the runes as some people said they weren't able to pick them up again so I left it open.

By LLboxed on 04 Apr 2019 11:59

Is there any reason why I it wouldn't count 10 of them in the first place. I 100% went to each rune...

By TuKraZe on 04 Apr 2019 12:20

EDIT 1: Link to 20 additional Runes if anybody falls short:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hndmvSHL-lg&feature....be

EDIT 2: I can confirm that you can farm the Runes using a second Pilot by simple creating a new one from the title screen. You will have to complete the introductory mission as well as a couple others until you get to speak to Matthias and unlock the mission 'See in the Dark'. It is only when you have completed this mission that you will be able to farm the Runes again. Confirmed 04/04/19.

By TuKraZe on 04 Apr 2019 22:31

Does anyone have time to help me out ? I don't understand that garbage achievement

By on 24 Apr 2019 18:25

Can't find ally Sentinels anywhere. Checked over half the locations where they normally spawn several times in Freeplay. Can't progress in that portion of collectables...

For Dominion Intel and Arcanist Archives this video works perfectly
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_V9Wd0K1yKk

By the alecas on 10 May 2019 02:33

The video you have for the misplaced writings is sadly incomplete. Two of the collectibles detailed in it are Library/Society items which don't count towards the writings. So, unless people are lucky enough to find two more lying around in game they'll need to use the new character work around.

Great guide by the way. It's been hugely helpful!

By Albert Scale on 14 May 2019 09:14

For Sentinel Archives the only place that works for me is shown in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKhX2IiLjtQ

If nothing there, do some event near and return or enter again in free play until first sentinel archive appears then do what the video shows.

By the alecas on 20 May 2019 11:21

After I finished the Rune video guide I was at 79, however in the grinding process I found 2 Runes not listed. So the only thing I can think of is I didn't have the location correct sue to the terrain looking so similar. Once the video was over an I was @79 I went to the "Shrine" and found 3 extra Runes one being under water, so I can positively verify there is over 80, thanks for the guide

By ERNDAWWG on 29 May 2019 06:28

It's just so annoying, with the random spawns, I pretty much just get the same kind of collectible, that I already completed and doesn't count. I think won't be completing this any time soon.

By Stark Marine on 12 Jul 2019 12:13

The video for the sentinel archives farm method seems to have been deleted. It says video unavailable for me after trying to play it.

By I Ebon Hawk I on 23 Jul 2019 05:23

As Ebon said, the video you linked to for 25 Arcanist Archives/25 Sentinel Archives has been deleted from YouTube. You might want to find a replacement video.

By Vandel Buster on 23 Aug 2019 16:36

I think is a bug in the last update. I have no progress by Arcanist and Sentinel Archives. Stuck on 1 of 25.

By TokyoFist on 28 Oct 2019 15:35

@tokyofist. I'm having the same problem. Both stuck at 1/25 and no progress *sigh*

By Sniper JZA80 on 31 Oct 2019 15:52

Arcanist and sentinel intel are bugged for me as well

By Lonewulfeus on 03 Nov 2019 04:53

0 of 25 on archanist and sentinel for me...

By Frank ODST on 20 Nov 2019 18:07

For those stuck on sentinel/arcanist Intel, try this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/AnthemTheGame/comments/dz7atd/senti...

It's worked for me to get my progress in both going again.

Essentially, you need to get a tonne of one of them in a single Freeplay session to get the counter going again on that one. Takes 1-2 hours for each one.

By Finnan on 29 Nov 2019 05:23

Can confirm that method worked for me as well. Took quite a while to fix the arcanist intel, but the good news was that it worked for sentinel as well. Had to leave session due to server closure and it was still fixed in the new server I joined.

By Lonewulfeus on 30 Nov 2019 02:27

Doesn’t help me i fly for 2 hours collected 50+ archives still 1/25 on both challenges..In one session 50 collectibles,and nothing...Hate this Sh*t

By WhiteShadow994 on 06 Dec 2019 14:35

^The above worked well for me, however, for some reason my counter worked on sentinel up until 9, and then stopped. I then completed the journal entries as you mentioned so my last one says "in the end.." I keep farming, and only randomly did my counter go to 10 out of 2 hours of play.

Any idea what I'm missing? They only increase Sentinel Loyalty at this point. Not more journal entries. Thanks... it's 12/13, and after an update too of course.

EDIT: Well, I started a new freeplay after all the lore was registered. After about 45 min the counter started going up again. It would periodically stop, but pick back up again. I tried to make sense of it, or figure out some kind of patter but I got nothing. All I can say is just set aside 2 hours and just power through it in one freeplay and it will work. Thanks again for all the above help!

By Shred Asics 13 on 13 Dec 2019 21:01

I cannot get the Arcanist / Sentinel archives to respawn now (trying this game again almost a year after going for all but this last achievement) - did this seasonal / wintery snow update also have changes to spawning?

By alladaskill17 on 18 Jan 2020 21:22

I must be the black sheep, but I had no trouble with arcanist or sentinel. I did most of them on the same session because I didnt want to risk but I had no trouble with the ones I already had. On the tomb tunnel there are usually a spot for sentinel an another for archanist. I flied in and out from both sides to respawm them and got it in no time.

By UnfurledEmu75 on 23 Feb 2020 13:43

Can confirm that writings ARE available in story missions. I've not played Freeplay yet but I have completed the first batch of 10.

By ChardPT on 29 Mar 2020 04:36

Okay so I want to try this game again, but this achievement caused me huge issues since I was only missing 1 writing. If I create a new pilot and collect 1 random writing (the closest one) will the achievement pop? Or do I have to try to find the 1 specific writing on my current pilot?

By LostGames#4189 on 12 Apr 2020 10:05

what do you mean collect all in one session? in one free play session? one pilot? i looked on youtube comments and saw this wasnt an issue with collecting over time. can i have some clarification on what you mean? i see a ton of things contradicting this.

By DarkKnightKefka on 14 Apr 2020 18:44

@Spascifica - I went there and there is no map. Just pictures. You can't click anything. Tried 2 different browsers.

By ChooseMyFate on 22 Nov 2023 07:54

Also a note to the fast method of mederines collectibles: do the first mission 2 training missions and have a friend invite you to free play. We did 30 mederines notes in 80ish minotes doing it this way. Far faster than 35-45 just to hit freeplay

By DarkKnightKefka on 03 May 2020 06:27

Tnx. Wery usefull!

By FairerTOHSAKA on 09 Jun 2020 22:53

Is there a way to see which Arcanist Runes I have already collected? Or do I need to follow the video and go through all the ones I have collected until I find one that I haven't yet?

By KiloOscarZulu on 04 Aug 2020 07:38

This is probably THE WORST Collectible achievement type to ever created. I guess they went to quantity over Quality. Shame

By PROonTOP13 on 18 Oct 2020 23:33

okay, just got this B* of an achievement yesterday and I can say that although stated in the red box here on the site my collectibles for the Sentinel an Arcanist Intel did not reset.
I did NOT have to get them in a single session.
Thanks for the great guide! Did helped me alot!

By w00kieman on 03 Dec 2020 06:39

Any confirmation on if the “Botanist” or “Geologist” challenges count? They’re for harvesting chimeric compounds/alloys and are listed under Bastion collectibles. Thanks

By Dan B 697 on 28 Mar 2021 05:59

@Dan, I didn’t need to complete Botanist or Geologist. I was close to finishing both just in case but they weren’t required.

By ManicMetalhead on 28 Mar 2021 11:57

Thanks for the heads up

By Dan B 697 on 28 Mar 2021 12:14

Was following one of the videos mentioned above, where it shows you can farm sentinel/arcanist intel, gotta say worked like a charm! Was flying backwards and forwards through tarsis bypass collecting both of these each run and then letting them respawn

By THE1WHTHEFORCE on 29 Oct 2021 16:28

Does starting a new pilot reset all of your gear and your Javelin power to 0?

By kevgeotech on 03 Feb 2022 18:34

For those with glitches. The acedemy ruins glitched on me. I was a little pissed becuase I invested Alot of time in this game. Anyways, at the start screen I just pressed "X" and started a new Javelin as mentioned above. Everything carried over except the glitch. Yes I had to play the first few missions to unlock free play but as soon as I did, I went to the astromony tower and there was the glimmimg light. I picked it up and it finally registered unlocking the achievement for collection everything in the academy ruins. Now all my numbers match and I can start finishing up this achievement.

By SMOLDERPICKEM44 on 11 Nov 2022 01:09

The scar intel are driving me insaneeee

By MrNoLuckFox on 28 Jan 2023 02:32

Finally got this achievement, thank you for the guide.

Just throwing my note in there: My Sentinel / Arcanist notes would always reset to 3 or 4 each after every Freeplay/Expedition session, regardless of how many I gathered during. The red box warning may still be accurate, or I just got unlucky.
Went in a giant circle collecting Arcanist for several hours, but got lucky with the back-to-back spawn for Sentinel (shown in the guide).
Only had 10 minutes before my server session would have ended, too. Good luck to everyone trying to fight past the Sentinel/Arcanist bug, especially with the time-limited Freeplay servers.

By Master Calv1n on 26 Mar 2023 04:42

My Sentinel and Arcanist notes were resetting to a much lower amount until I reached 16 and 17 respectively.
I had intended to complete them all in a single session as recommended, but I ended up getting disconnected from the server early. Fortunately, the number didn't reset at this point. I can only presume this is because I had collected quite a few within a single session.

Whilst I was able to collect all of the runes on a single character, I would highly recommend creating a second character to collect the writings as these seem to be much more difficult to find and I found myself 19 short by the time I had seemingly searched everywhere.

By masterelliot994 on 01 Apr 2023 16:03

Worth noting that one of the Arcanist Runes is located in a surface that no longer exists post-Cataclysm, so anybody coming back to the game to polish those off might be frustrated to end up at 49/50 Vassa's Triumph. As previously noted, however, the achievement can be cheesed if that was your last Rune.

By M Moriarty on 18 May 2023 07:10

Mederines peers is the only thing I'm having trouble with. The rest is not bad. Think I got 15 left,then I'm unistalling this game.

By PensFan4Life71 on 13 Feb 2024 15:58

If you are having troubles completing the Menderes files I would suggest you bite the sour apple and quickly create a new toon to pick these up. I am mentioning this in the guide. It's not pretty and not fun as it takes about 40 minutes to get a character Freeplay-ready but it will save you time if you can't find any of these scrolls anymore.

As for the collectibles: It's actually SO much easier than it was in the beginning. Now you can see a ? symbol on your minimap whenever something to pick up is nearby.

Usually you can tell the sites appart (sort of). If there are outlaws nearby you get outlaw collectibles, scar stuff in scar camps and so forth. Sentinel camps in the wild will always yield Sentinel stuff.

By LLboxed on 12 Jul 2019 12:48

0 of 25 on archanist and sentinel for me. I have everything else in the game complete. I hope they fix.

By BegFourMercy on 03 Nov 2019 13:53

For the archives, go through the tunnel to the left of the Fort Tarsis spawn over and over again on grand master 3 difficulty (not sure if this matter but it's what I did). It's the one that leads to the tomb door. Eventually they will start counting. Took me about 3 hrs. before they started to count.

By illicitsoc on 28 Nov 2019 05:07

Wasn't able to update solution yesterday but will get to it tonight. Will make sure to credit everyone who contributed, this is a community effort after all. Thanks for all the input!

Done with Runes, stopped vid at 55/80 because I had enough. Definately more runes available in the game than on the vid but not sure how many.

Also already half way done on the Scar and Dominion intel stuff by just checking huts/camps while looking for the runes. Still a bit low on the Outlaw intel, but will look into that one next.

Very little information on the writings, also no idea right now where to get the Sentinel/Arcanist archives. Got two Sentinel archives but not sure where I picked them up, must have been before I was actually looking for them.

By LLboxed on 28 Feb 2019 07:50

Takes 35 minutes to get a new pilot to Freeplay if you skip all the cutscenes. Added this bit of info to the solution.

By LLboxed on 02 Mar 2019 19:26

@Zasta: Nice! Must be one hell of an editing job.

By LLboxed on 02 Mar 2019 20:04

@LLboxed, I am sure :-) If you collect just 10 writings and finish „Mederines’ Disciple” challenge, it won’t be completed under „Distinguished Explorer” challenge. All 80 writings must be found to mark the specific requirement of „Distinguished Explorer” as completed. BioWare just screwed up the description and they put „Mederines’ Disciple” as a requirement of „Distinguished Explorer” instead of „Mederines’ Peer”.

By FayMoon on 05 Mar 2019 13:41

I was able to find a spawn for the Outlaw and Dominian collectibles. This is right next to the spawn point (Strider) on freeplay in Academy Ruins. You can fly back and fourth between the two 25 times and knock both of them out easily. Video: playing

Here is the cave next to Fort Tarsis for the Sentinel and Archavist Collectibles. Fly from one end to the other and can collect both easily. Not sure if they will spawn this way for everyone. Video: playing

By ThirtyRekt on 15 Mar 2019 12:47

For those having the problem where the Sentinel and/or Arcanist notes do not seem to count, maybe my experience can help. I used the tunnels next to Fort Tarsis for the spawn locations and spammed the tomb or the fast travel to keep them respawning. Difficulty does not matter. I did one on hard and one on GM1. I noticed that after every 4 or 5 Sentinel notes, I would get a message that Crimson Lancer Rewrite was updated. And after every 4 or 5 Arcanist notes, I would get a message that An Account of My Time with Saln Govran was updated. In each case, a check of my recent library entries confirmed this was actually happening. Once each of those respective items was complete, the count for the Sentinel or Arcanist notes would begin increasing again. The last Crimson Lancer Rewrite entry should end with, “From somewhere deeper inside the ruin...” The last An Account of My Time with Saln Govran should end with, “In the end...” Once you have those entries, your counter should be working. Based on this, I am not sure whether this is a bug or was actually intended. Either way, hopefully this will get your counters moving.

By DeltaAgent on 06 Dec 2019 17:36

So I can confirm YOU DO NOT HAVE to get all Sentinel and Arcanist notes in one go. I server hopped several times going for them and my achievement popped. Please fix your guide

By DarkKnightKefka on 03 May 2020 06:25

If you are struggling with the Runes like I am (I finished the video but only have 77/80 Runes) here is another video from GamingWithAbyss which has an extra 14 Runes.

By LepraSaun on 09 May 2020 02:56

Got this yesterday.
Just want to confirm that Clam before the storm isn’t needed.
I followed the collectible list for notes/scroll etc twice and visited every location multiple times but still came up one short (my list 100% matched the YouTube description too).
Starting as a new pilot worked for me.

Also I struggled to find Scar intel but found a good farming spot.
Go to the tomb of Cariff in the North of the map. Usually there will be some intel just outside the door or nearby. Collect it and go into the tomb. Exit the tomb and collect it again. Repeat.

Sometimes it didn’t spawn or was dominion intel, but keep trying. After 4-5 times, it’ll despawn. Just leave the server and load into another and try again.

By ManicMetalhead on 14 Mar 2021 09:50

Thank you sir, you are a gentleman. Finished this in 2024, finally. That last Sentinel booklet was a real pain in the you know what.

By VitoFlorco on 02 Feb 2024 23:38

@the JeffreyTM, I did a couple of missions, but not sure how many to be honest, neither here or the other guide I looked at said you had to get to certain mission before being able to see them.

I just got the achievement legit by following the vid in the end. I got 3 in the foundry hidden place earlier when I started looking for my last 5 and my counter didn’t go up, but luckily they wasn’t the last 5 I was missing.

Intel Map, the guy said;

The red circles indicate a spawn point for Scar, Dominion or outlaw intel points that I have found.

Spawns appear to be random, Sometimes you might get a different intel at the location or you might not get any,

Spawns refresh between different freeplay events

If someone else has already looted it then if the structure is there the item wont be.

All in all its a very tedious method they have forced into without private matchmaking, Ive done maybe 30 or 40 laps of the map visiting each spot and adding news ones as I find them but im still not even 50% of the way through the task and some of them im only on 5 peices of intel.

It is also by no means complete, I have another copy open now with 2 more points added so every so often il post the latest one :)

By FailedSeppuku on 28 Feb 2019 00:31

@LLboxed Here is the map I have been using and also updating when I find new writings. It is a public map so any user can edit it and add locations. Since it is public I am assuming you can add it to this solution, long as you give credit to https://www.reddit.com/user/xeman2x I have talked to him and permission was giving to post on this site.

Here is the link to the map which as of posting this comment has 53 writings.

https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1f1gxcPDfhpjwtwrwcBzX7mHT...

I went through and collected most then started new pilot and collected the rest for the achievement.. Hope this helps everyone

ps. The map is in open edit so be careful, the map may move if you try to "grab" it to scroll left or right. If you think you messed up anything just keep hitting undo until back to normal

By CATFISH Wu on 03 Mar 2019 06:32

Took me way too long using the videos on own, to first locate right location on in game map, before checking right angle etc.
It may have worked better with a map that could tick off.
As some others mentioned, heres what helped me

Been finished with game for months but was still 9 Runes short, 4 Writings & loads of item missing after using map/videos.

Runes & Writings -
Runes - https://game-maps.com/anthem/Challenge-Arcanist-Runes.asp
Writings - https://game-maps.com/anthem/img/Anthem-Misplaced-Writi....jpg
I made a new Pilot and able to keep my previous one, as well as swtich between.
Menu > A > X (start new pilot)
> first mission , single player tutorial lvl > Do get to change pilots appearance and set a new name, so can distiquish between the 2 saves > back at FortTarsis Hub >speak Taysin (lady in red) > mission to rescue Mathias > back at FortTarsis Hub >talk to shop vendor (talks about bringing thunder) to unlock free play
- If just need Writing then can go get them now.
- If need Runes > Talk to Mathias > mission See in the Dark >
back at FortTarsis Hub >speak to Mathias > Freeplay go pick up remaining collectables

Intel -
Freeroam > FortTarsis spawn > hug left wall to go down tunnel to Yvenia Tomb and will often get several spawn > head back out and up towards camp/castle and loop back round to tunnel. Theres a trail of camps with possible intel.
If though there is one particular intel you need out side of the tomb, you can just repeatedly go in/out of the tomb.
Scar Intel - https://game-maps.com/anthem/img/Anthem-Challenge-Scar-....jpg
FortTaris > north to Mandible dungeon > from enterance, fly ou towards cliff to find platform with pile of broken javaelins with 2 large flame torches > intel for Scar > fly into Dungeon > out > repeat

Soon as got my last intel/Runes the Achivement poped.
Went back to Main menu and selected original Pilot.
Hope helps

I went through the usual video guides (

Intel Farming

I can't take any credit for these videos, however these guides will guarantee you collecting each of the Scar, Sentinel, Dominion & Anarchist Intels.

Simply watch and follow, if the collectibles don't spawn, exit out of the expedition and search back into Free Play. It may take a few attempts, but trust me, with some persistence, they will spawn.

I was able to finish off all 4 challenges in around 2-3 hours using these videos saving many hours of searching and watching locational videos.

When you do find a server with the spawns there, you should be able to farm them indefinitley. If an item isn't there, keep going and coming a few more times as per the videos.

Note that other players being in the vicinity will interfere with the spawning of them.

What a miserable achievement

By Sneaky G Wizard on 29 Aug 2021 21:45

I'm with you Katana. They should be way more thoughtful when putting achievements together - I got about 20 hours of fun out of this game; then had to play another miserable and boring 40 hours of grinding gear I didn't want use and looting the same locations for collectibles I didn't want to read

By Sneaky G Wizard on 09 Sep 2021 05:59

The sentinel was the worst for me, it looks they are more rare than the others. I had to farm for about 4 hours only for the sentinel. The worst part was getting the wrong collectibles, or seeing camps without any collectible.

By Moe GZ on 07 Jan 2023 16:23

I had a lot of goodwill towards this game. I thought it was a tragedy that it was gone so soon, and lamented it couldn't have its No Man's Sky redemption arc. And then this achievement happened.
It's easily one of the worst achievements I've ever worked on in a single videogame. Fuck it in its entirety.

XboxAchievements

There are a total of 402 collectibles in Anthem.You can check your progress in the "Challenges" menu (see Exploration, then Bastion Collectibles). No collectibles can be missed, so feel free to work on this casually as you play the story and just mop up everything else later.

PowerPyx has written a very detailed guide to getting all the collectibles, complete with his always well-done videos. Using his guide, which can be found HERE, you will get this achievement and all the "Explorer:" achievements as well.

The ones that say "can farm the same ones after death" mean exactly that. There are farming loops you can go on to grab these collectibles, then let yourself die to respawn and repeat the loop to get credit toward the challenges until you're done. This makes the grind for these much less intensive than it might have otherwise been. Similarly, the ones marked "can farm the same ones by making a new pilot" can be farmed by creating new pilots and grabbing the same collectibles a few times (you'll need to complete the first missions until you get to Freeplay). This will not overwrite your main save, but should be done last anyway to be safe.

This guide was translated automatically.

Dominion data, scar data, bandit histories, guardian and archaeologist archives are essentially the same: they randomly appear on the map when entering the open world. Therefore, they may not be in the places indicated in the video.
As of patch 1.04, there is a very convenient way to farm. There is no need to travel across the entire map, as in the video, and then restart the location, as many claim.
It is enough to find 1 place with one of the above collectables, take it, fly away from it (it costs about 15 seconds to fly away) and return. Ta-dam! the team is on site. Repeat this 25 times for each and you're done.
Sometimes collectibles appear nearby, if the distance between them is 15-20 seconds of flight, it is enough to travel between them.
At some point they may stop appearing (I ran out of reps at 17-19). Healable by flying away for 30 seconds. When you return, everything will be in place.

Documents (Mederins' colleague) and green circles (Archologists runes, Vassa's triumph) are statically located on the map, but if you can't find everything, create a new pilot. Documents can be collected from the first available mission, and for runes/circles to appear in the open world you need to complete Matthias’s first mission (to open it you need to complete about two or three story missions)

Create a twink (bottom right corner of the screen, designated as New pilot, against the background of the Anthem inscription), without hesitation, thereby saving your nerves and not losing the slightest interest in the game (at the same time, you will pump up the devotion of level 3 guards and freelancers, as you will again overcome several main missions).

The trophy does not require resource gathering challenges.

It also counts if a person from the party gathered, and you were nearby. I don't know what the distance should be. I was near the lower tomb next to the next one.

You don't need to collect 400 bushes for the trophy! Tested personally, the gold trophy dropped without passing resource collection tests!

I’ll add a little about this kind of farming - sometimes a collecting item can spawn not in exactly the same place, but literally on the next box, so if you suddenly didn’t see the item where it was the previous time - don’t be lazy, look around - is there a similar design nearby? the one on which there was a collection

If you catch a bug and the archives of guards/archaeologists are not counted in the statistics, then on foreign sites they write that sometimes using a proxy in the network settings helps.
This method did not help me personally, so I can only wait for a patch.
Upd. They say that they have rolled out a patch, but it works strangely. When I launched the server on my own, nothing was collected, and when I connected through a friend, the archives were slowly collected, but I still had to restart the free game after 3-5 archives, because it suddenly stopped counting.

Interconnected challenge for the trophy - Pioneer. It is necessary to collect all the data - Dominion data, scar data, bandit histories, archives of guards and archologists. You need to collect all the vantage points. You need to collect all the runes. Collect all Mederins records. Mederins records are perfectly compiled from the video from the first post. The runes spawn randomly, there was no glitch with the disappearance. You just fly and collect. To collect vantage point locations, I used a video guide (ru), because I didn’t collect everything during the game.
Well, the most difficult thing is that there are 125 data in total, 25 for each faction. The most difficult thing is Archologists and Guardians. Archologists I collected all 25 records from the tomb of Artinini. He took the recording, went into the tomb, immediately came out and took the recording again, so 25 times. These guards turned out to be the most time-consuming, they spawn only to the right of the fort. I did what I did, collected the recording, flew to the neighboring area, spent 15 seconds there and back, almost always the recording appeared in the same place. All other data was collected by analogy with the guards. Bandits in the Academy Ruins area. Dominion - Tenemark Ruins. Scars - Emerald Abyss!

runes - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECRBAebzFBk

Dominion data: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bztRVi5ICk
scar data: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZ_tkYRJ7Kk
stories of bandits: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uOTAuzOSLn0
archives of guards and archaeologists: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SmdVh9seFo (there are only 10 reset points in the video, although in reality there are more, but following the route from the video once you remember all the points will take no more than 5 minutes, then restart the location and repeat the route again).
archives of guards and archaeologists, histories of bandits, data of dominion and scars are deleted randomly.

we still need to collect 80 diaries, notes and manuscripts, at the moment there is a video with only 10: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxfDex93yZw
I advise you to leave these fees until the end, because... While you are going through the campaign and collecting all the other items, a video will most likely appear with the location of all the places, if it does not appear, you can create a new character, go through the first 2 story missions (10-15 minutes) so that free play becomes available, and start collecting items in the same in the same places as in the video, but at the same time they will be marked as new in the statistics.

The Archives and Guardians' archives are counted again. Here is a video with one archive of guards, because... other videos did not help in finding https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5h3tDQzi2Tg
