Will update OP with further notes when games go live like what mats needed for relic upgrades/how many.


Upgraded Relic Gear: Thanks Prothescar/Kincard/Urat(from BG) for this info:
Plasm Item:
All Boss Crafting Mats are 300k Plasm.

Outer Ra'Kaznar
Buy map at Scout's Coalition 2000 Bayld

Entrance F-8 in Kamihr Drifts. Warp #4 and go southwest.

There are no bivouacs in the zone. This is a dungeon zone kind of like the caverns. However you can warp via the augural conveyor for skirmish.

Map 1:

Map 2:


Labeled maps best I could from what I did. You can't access all the Colonization Reives or other areas of the map because of walls. I've tried multiple ways but some areas are impossible to access as of now.

I didn't draw where the walls were because rumor is that Colonization % affects which walls are down

The vines are drops only, but The Elevator you can take up or down.

Lerene is the NPC when you zone. She asks for 2 ancestral cloths for her quest.

They are found off 'shunned' mobs throughout the zone. They're fomors but they have access to new weaponskills.

When you trade her the 2 cloths she gives you a cutscene which mentions a silvery plate. And gives you the "Pulverizing" Key item. You need the Key Item to destroy the Colonization Reive walls.

I drew my path to the silvery plate. And then drew as far as I could get into the zone. I assume the Dead End lead to a zone in a future update (Inner Ra'Kaznar if I had to guess).

If anyone has any critical information please let me know so I can try to update it.

Skirmish Info thanks to pchan:
GEO RELIC QUEST: Thanks to Kensagaku over at BG for info.
