Open Sesame achievement

[sand]

How did you get the 'A Trickster's Hand Revealed' and 'The Three Scarabs' achievements? me and a friend are trying to hunt down all the achievements and we only have 3 left with little idea of what to do

[sand]

a tricksters hand revealed - stop at the information broker and talk about the east desert. go to the abandoned camp and examine, then go to the djinn node and ask him to corrupt a ring. doesn't matter if you have one on or not.

the three scarabs - go into the tomb from the south entrance (not the side pyramid) and head to the scarab wall node. choose whichever you want and then go all the way to zone 5 and go the bottom route. forgot the name of the node but it should be the last option when it starts mentioning colors (should also have scarab in the option, hard to miss)

[sand]

and for open sesame - bring navalea and go to the pyramid node. choose the forgive option and then go to the obelisk node and pick the explore option.

[Dinobro007]

Thanks, i just figured out the Open Sesame myself but was still having trouble with the other 2

How did you complete the ancient mural? I have no clue to my last achievement 'Desert Vision'

[Dinobro007]

Go to the desert tile in the far south, you'll get heat stroke and hallucinate a mural. After that just go to the Pyramid in the bottom right with Basthet and take the right path. There's a mural that will now have a special interaction option about the hallucination you had

Wow thanks a lot

Hmm, brought her to the pyramid mode, she seemed pretty bitter for the whole process (statue in the center she just curses and then when she sees the god she's just like I hate you).

that's so strange. I did what I posted exactly and it worked for me. if anyone else managed to do something different, please update in case I forgot a step or something.

that seems like you brought her to the wrong Pyrmaid node :) You want the very small one at the top right, not bottom right.
The path you need to take will take you first towards the tomb where you first unlocked her, but you need to continue. The node you want is the one that has some kind of cover before the small pyramid.

If you look for items in the Tome, you can see that picture a bit better (for example, the unholy hammer is found there, apparently)

Just a small warning. You can pass by a Node called 'Artifact' or something. Its not worth it. Also, I still don't know how to pass the Heron check at the Dry Lake node, but I suppose you simply need a Rain in your deck?
EDIT: Yes, having a Rain in your deck works, though I have only tested it for a true rain and not for poison/healing/blood ones.
The rewards are a bit of gold and, if you go to the pyramid 'vendor' node, a small discount there.

Regarding Trickster's Hand Revealed, we didn't have a "Search" option at the Abandoned Camp after going there from the Information Brokers. Only the regular camp interactions, so the Djinn didn't offer anything with rings.

Is there another prerequisite for that option to appear?

Did you ask the broker about the eastern desert?
Did you pick the correct camp? (not even sure you can go to the other from there, but its the top one)

[Ninaran]

Yes we did ask about the eastern desert and yes we went to the abandoned camp, not the oasis.

[Nordos/atord]

I had taken the option to search the camp and found a note. It may be simply the normal search option, dunno. Have only done it once so far

[Ninaran]

You mean like looking for shards/gold at other camps? That one is special in this camp? Mh. Will try that out next time we're there.

Yup, gotta use the "Examine" option to look for shards to get the note, there's no dedicated "Search" option.
