Dereth is an expansive place with many wonderous sights to see. There are also sights you can see for about 3 seconds before a particularly nasty critter sends you hurtling through portal space back to your lifestone. Now there is a reward for exploring!
Step 1 - Flagging. To begin this quest, head to Holtburg and go behind the bar. There you will see an NPC and a pedestal with a globe spinning on top of it. This is an exploration marker, 1 of 100. Talk to Sean the Speedy to be flagged to use these markers. For every 10 you find, you will receive an XP reward. There are also several titles for completing a set number of markers and for finding special themed subsets of the markers. It will take you several hours to find them all, but the rewards are worth it!
Step 2 - Explore! Instead of listing all of the markers' locations, I am simply going to direct you to download and print a Word document I made that has all of the markers listed in checklist form, along with what I consider to be the most efficient way to hit them all. Download HERE.
Step 3 - Rewards. For every 10 markers you find, you will receive 20% of your level (capped at 197) when you talk to Sean the Speedy next. There's no need to return every 10 markers - you won't miss out if you do all 100 and then go back. There are also quite a few titles available. They are:
| Requirement | Title |
| Find 20 Markers | Amateur Explorer |
| Find 40 Markers | Experienced Explorer |
| Find 60 Markers | Adept Explorer |
| Find 80 Markers | Master Explorer |
| Find all Markers | Elite Explorer |
| Find 5 Mountain Climber Markers | Mountain Climber |
| Find 5 Party Goer Markers | Party Goer |
| Find 5 Crater Crasher Markers | Crater Crasher |
| Find 5 Spelunker Markers | Spelunker |
| Find 5 Sky Diver Markers | Sky Diver |
| Find 5 Daredevil Markers | Daredevil |
The final reward might be the most valuable. When you talk to Sean after having completed all 100 markers, he will give you a token that you can redeem for an Explorer's backpack. This pack has 30 slots instead of the usual 24. Clean out a pack, dump it on the ground, and then give Sean the token. Don't be foolish - make sure you have a pack space free, as this is a unique, one-time-only reward!
