Start at The Radiant Dunes waypoint. From here, venture through the desert, heading south until you reach a crossroads. From here go east. After travelling you’ll hit another crossroads; from there go northeast. At the end of this leg, you’ll find one last crossroads with options to go north or continue east. Continue east until you see the entrance to the tomb.

Inside the tomb you’ll come across a boss to beat called the Spiteful Gold Elemental. Take this foe down and it will drop a relic. Inspect the relic and you’re on to the next step.

Next, travel to the Maj’elka upper district and speak to a merchant in the center of town who knows about relics. From here he will send you towards Maj’elka Slums, where you can finish off this Last Epoch questline. If you’ve already been to the slums simply fast-travel there. If you haven’t, it can be reached by venturing through Maj’elka’s lower district.

Inside you will find the Slacebane Fence. Speak to him and make sure you choose to talk things over. From here you can sell the relic, but he won’t take 80,000 gold. Instead, choose 20,000 gold and the quest will be complete. For finishing this sandy Last Epoch task you will receive the following treasures and rewards:

  • One Passive Point
  • Three Idol Spots
  • 3,000 XP
