Where to find the Robe of the Arcane Cheater Treasure Map and reward in Avowed

To begin with, you need the Robe of the Arcane Cheater Treasure Map in Avowed. That can be found by speaking to Ihaka, and purchasing it for 1,680 Skeyt, in her shop. The easiest way to get there is to use the Tago Tower fast travel, and then run to the location you see on the image below. Simply go inside and talk to her to purchase the map.

The solution to the Robe of the Arcane Cheater Treasure Map in Avowed IS found at the Ancient Lakebed. You can use either the Eagle’s Reach Party Camp or the Ancient Lakebed South beacon. Both routes are pretty lengthy. Look for the lake in the image below, just south of “Ancient Lakebed” on the actual map itself.

Admittedly, it’s not much of a lake - it just looks like one on the map. If you’re like us, and big on fighting bounties, the Robe of the Arcane Cheater quest is in the same location as the one where you fought Kukae Maka. Walk up the ramp and get to the rocks above the lakebed. If you look down, you should see some bushes and moss. Carefully inch off the cliff and down onto that grassy section.

Turn around and you should see a small opening, a cave you can walk or crawl into. You’ll also see the brilliant glow of a treasure chest. Crack this open and you’ve completed the Robe of the Arcane Cheater Treasure Map in Avowed.
