Only a restless spirit can help you solve this murder mystery.
Unfortunately, some Veil Jumpers haven’t returned from their mission, and Elio, one of their comrades, is worried about his friends. That’s where you come in, as you’ll need to search the marked areas of Arlathan Forest to pinpoint the lost Veil Jumpers and rescue them from danger if you can.
Where To Find The Missing Veil Jumpers
Speak to Elio near the Veil Jumper camp in Arlathan Forest about some of the other Veil Jumpers who haven’t returned from a mission yet.
Elio enlists your help to find them, so follow your marker to the Ancient Aqueduct area or fast-travel to your nearest beacon.
Follow your marker to the Veil Jumper Camp, where you’ll witness a strange explosion as a Veil Jumper disappears with some relics in a green blast of energy.
The First & Second Veil Jumpers
After that strange occurrence, head back across the river and up a ladder, following your marker until you reach a group of portals floating in the distance.
Take the first portal, which will lead you up a ledge to a Broken Device that Bellara can sort out for you.
Next, cross the tree trunk bridge where you’ll find your missing Veil Jumper wounded and lying on the stone floor.
Speak to this Veil Jumper, then continue searching for the other three markers.
Go directly back across the tree trunk you have just crossed and through some tree roots to reach a clearing.
Here, you can use Assan’s Griffon digging abilities to unearth a relic and destroy a wall in front of you, leading to a Scribbled Note, revealing the other Veil Jumper’s fate.
The Third Veil Jumper
From the previous spot, go right toward the northern area of the Waterfront Glades and listen for a Veil Jumper calling out from behind a blue barrier.
Use your abilities on the mechanism which will trigger a group of Shades to spawn.
Once the Shades are defeated, go interact with the device again to lower the barrier and free the distressed Veil Jumper.
The Fourth Veil Jumper
Lastly, head to the final marker in the western area of the Waterfront Glades through a set of exploding relics and up a hill.
Deactivate the device per the trapped Veil Jumper’s instructions to free them from the barrier.
Speak to this Veil Jumper who will tell you more about the relics, then you can report back to Elio to finish up.
What Rewards Do You Get From The Plight Of The Veil Jumpers?
Return to Elio for one last conversation, which will complete The Plight Of The Veil Jumpers, earning you these rewards:
- XP
- Gold
- Increased bond with your companions
- Materials
Take your loot and keep searching Arlathan Forest for more quests and secrets.
