Walkthrough[edit]

Section-stub. This key section of the article is incomplete. You can help the Guild Wars 2 Wiki by expanding it.
Reason: Objectives renamed ingame

There are six types of hidden locations:

  1. Hidden under a rock
  2. Hidden by crates (stack/move)
  3. Hidden by crates that have to be destroyed with a Tree Branch (The Springer's or Raptor's engage skill, or any AoE will also work)
  4. A series of checkpoints
  5. Interact with nearby objects in some order
  6. Shoot targets: Interact with the target to start a mini-game giving you new skills to shoot targets in the air.

The first three types require the player to pick up an unmarked object. Either the rock itself, a tree branch from a stack of wood with which the nearby crates have to be destroyed, or a crate itself which in return has to be stacked on other nearby crates, dropping it with the green arrow "1" key, or moved to match some pattern. Completing each challenge reveals a previously hidden Arcane Treasure Chest.

Since the targets move almost constantly, it can be a good idea to wait with your targeting reticule at its highest point and take a shot as it turns. If you shoot the left one first, you may be able to hit it before it starts moving. The right-hand one is stationary.
