Ancient Lands Leygate and Spirit Essence progression

1. Enter an island and identify the mobs that count toward its objective.
2. Defeat half the island’s eligible mobs; do not count marmots toward completion.
3. Claim the Leygate Keystone provided when the objective is complete.
4. Collect Spirit Essence from statues, mob drops or Drakes as the route presents them.
5. Use the Keystone to activate a Leygate or remove it to select another route.
6. Before activating, assess whether the gate’s visibility could draw rival groups.
7. Continue until your target is reached, then use an exit portal or central route as appropriate.

Farming tips

• Spirit Essence benefits the current run, so treat it as temporary combat value rather than a bankable reward.
• Nearby allies can revive a downed teammate, but revives stack a maximum-health penalty during the expedition.
