2022 Hunt for the Ancients

These 2022 quests are part of the Hunt for the Ancients. These unlock as soon as you complete the capstone quest of the 2020 Season of Jubilee: Proving Your Friendship.

Unlike previous iterations of the hunt, the quests here span all areas of the Valley. They are more involved than the 2020 and 2021 seasons of the hunt.

Each main area of the Valley (Luciola Forest, Mama Tree, Three Points Crossing, Gansu Watering Hole, Riza Rivertown, Floating City of Balance, Dark Forest Outpost, Purple Gate, the Cave, City of Light, and Dusted Castle) is given a 5-part quest chain, where each quest provides a piece of armor themed to the area. Full armor sets consist of 5 pieces from quests and 3 pieces that can be bought in the Elder Library Token Store.

Once a Dust Warrior has all the full sets of armor from a region (both Luciola Forest and Mama Tree, or both Three Points Crossing and Gansu, etc.) a 3-part quest chain is available. At the end of that quest chain, dust warriors will earn a recipe for a legendary battle item, which can be purchased with the recipe in the Elder Library token store.

## Historical Notes

In 2022, the hunt switched to seasonal updates instead of monthly updates.

The Riza Rivertown armor was released in December 2021, as an "early gift" from the Bard.

The Mama Tree armor, Dark Forest Outpost armor, and Purple Gate armor were released during the Season of Hope update in January.

The Luciola Forest armor, Three Points Crossing armor, and Balance armor were released during the Season of Wandering in May. This meant you could get full armor sets for the Forest and Water regions. Therefore the legendary quests for the Forest and Water regions were made available.

The Gansu armor and Cave armor were released during the Season of Growth in August. This meant you could get full armor sets for the Desert and Dust regions. Therefore the legendary quests for the Desert and Dust regions were made available.

The City of Light armor and Dusted Castle armor were released during the Season of Jubilee as a surprise, because until then the hunt had not traveled that far into the valley.
