GW2. Echovald Wilds. What Did the Shrine Guardians Say? Achievement Guide. Guild Wars 2 End of Dragons. Cantha 2022.
This achievement requires you to find 35 Shrine Guardian Infants. These are represented by 35 chests that you must find and loot, hidden by a “mini-puzzle” around the map.
There are five types of these mini-puzzles:
- Hidden under a rock (can be multiple rocks, only one reveals the chest)
- Hidden by crates that you need to move or stack to match a pattern
- Hidden by crates that you need to destroy with a “tree branch”
- Hidden by a secret path of checkpoints
- Hidden until you interact with nearby objects in specific order
All the locations are hinted by some wind effect, you will notice when you are near them.
