    Stabilize Diessa Plateau against the Molten Alliance by completing events (20) and returning audio logs to Agent Brandubh. Molten Alliance events award extra progress.

    However for the other 6, talk again with Agent Brandubh and select the dialogue option “I lost the location list”, now you will receive a new mail with detailed locations at Wayfarer Foothills (you won’t get the green circles) so go there and start looking for them.

      As smal hint, Secret Contact Part 2. If you made the Achievment in 2013 the Agent send you the letter with the locations , but there are no dead drops.. Doing Part 1 of the Achievment (Diessa Plateu) is enough to get the points.

      please fix the achievement order in the map path. Even better is having a single map with all targets on different colors per different achievement. So it will be much more easier to find everything walking only once, instead of walking 3 times.
