One of the enjoyable aspects of playing Atlas Fallen is the opportunity to gather fragments of a treasure map. Once assembled, the treasure map provides valuable clues to locating hidden treasures such as Essence Stones, cosmetic items, and other essential items that will aid in your quest to break free from Thelos’ grip. However, locating the treasures remains challenging despite having the clues, as they are expertly concealed. In the Forbidden Land of Caladrias, there are six locations where treasures can be found. Fortunately, we can provide the exact locations to ensure you don’t waste time searching for them.
All Forbidden Land Treasure Map locations in Atlas Fallen
The best way to find the blue, glowing ground that needs to be raised to reveal the treasure chest is to find the start from the Treasure Map in-game. This means you need to look at the environment shown in the treasure map and then head to the star based on the location depicted. However, we will provide you with each treasure map location because they can be tricky, even with clues.
The Great View

Here is the clue for The Great View treasure map:Â Ruins are in sight. A flagpole above. It lies hidden deep in the stone.

Head to the marked location on the map. There will be a platform you can raise to reach the required area to find the treasure. In my picture above, I already raised the platform, and if you did too, you could still get to the treasure chest from where I’m standing. You will get the Lucky Charm and Unwavering Stance formulas from The Great View treasure chest.
Near a Watchtower

Here is the clue for the Near a Watchtower treasure map: Under an arch of rock. Remains of the pas tare home to the riches.

Head to the Watchtower in the Wastelands and look for the arch in front. The treasure chest is underneath the arch, but it is hard to see due to the sun, so I recommend walking slowly and looking for the Raise icon to appear. You will get the Swift Hive Essence Stone from the Near a Watchtower treasure chest.
A Hole in the Desert

Here is the clue for the A Hole in the Desert treasure map: A desert has many holes and caves. Some are long tunnels that lead to other rocky sides.

You’ll find the A Hole in the Desert treasure while completing the Eyes in the Desert quest. Head to the location marked on your map, and you will find the area where you need to raise the treasure chest sitting out in the open. Once raised, you will loot the Blue Dye in this treasure chest, which can be used to dye your armor. The one nice aspect about Dye in Atlas Fallen is it is unlimited, and you can Dye a lot of different pieces leading to some neat customization options.
Mine… and Yours

Here is the clue for the Mine… and Yours treasure map: It was once a mine. With a huge pillar holding the ceiling. It hides all the way in the back.

This treasure chest is a bit deceiving because you must travel all the way to the back of the map, as shown above. Make sure you zoom your map in all the way so you see the layer that includes the cave. You will know you are in the right place because you must defeat a Dromur Wraith (the crab looking wraith) before you can get to the treasure chest. You will get the Helmet of a lost Knight of Bastengar cosmetic item.

Hidden on the Cliffs

Here is the clue for the Hidden on the Cliffs treasure map: The rocks are steep, and the ravines deep. The village is near, but the old guard post is closer.
Image: PC Invasion
Travel to the location marked on the map, which will take you to the old guard post from the clue. Head to your left of the guard tower, and you will see wooden slats that denote you can climb down. Otherwise, you can climb to the top of the tower and look over the edge. Either way, you should see the chest on the hidden cliffs below.
Dead and Buried

Here is the clue for the Dead and Buried treasure map: Not every grave contains death. Some contain riches. And some are near old gates and under old rocks.

Head to the location on the map above. On the main level, you will find the blue, glowing ground underneath an overhang of rocks.
