"Umbral Tourist" achievement
Visit all types of Visit Site in the Umbral Abyss in a single playthrough

I don't really get this. What are these visit sites? And how to get - find - visit them all in one playtrough? Can someone help me with this?

I would like to note that in the company map - this sanctuaries are olny two types of three - so you cannot get the achievement. Need to play on regular map with Umbral Abyss, or its just my luck :)

The speed shrine also doesn't let you visit it if your units already have very fast movement, giving you an error saying "this will do nothing." Which can make it a bit annoying if you are just trying to grab it for the achieve.

Thank you guys, i managed to find them all.
If anyone interested in the future, the 3 are:
- Scrying Sanctum (an illuminaty symbol, with a demon eye in the inside)
- Quicksilver basin (a well filled with silvery liquid)
- Soothing Shrine (a hooded statue, with candles and a golden magic circle)

You can use Rally or such to get a unit that is slow.

My first game when I was actually thinking about it, I was in there with a scout far away from where my normal armies were, and the scout couldn't get the visit bonus and I wasn't realistically going to send units all the way over there. So I just didn't get the achieve that game. It's just something to think about, a summon or rally or whatever can certain solve it but you might need a hero stack there to get it, or get lucky and have one of those locations relatively close to your cities to send a random unit other than a scout wandering over there to grab it.

Just a correction here - all three types are actually available on the Tharru map - you just have to do some extra exploring :coolstar2022:

The bigger the map, the higher the chance i guess.
But, just check again for the speed one. I spent 2 games, thinking it is just a resource, before realizing it is a visit site.

im looking the zoomed out map, it supposed to show every point of interest, but i've found in the same map 2 and 3 of the other shrines but no speed one, it must be bad luck, thanks anyways

Seems the most difficult achievement.
What do they mean with "It is necessary to visit all three in one playthrough "?

In one map, use the 3 different visit options on them. So let at least 1 fitting unit walk onto those, click shrine, activate it.
Ok obtained this last achievement and have a perfect game now!

Wonder how many players have a perfect game with all the DLC?

Thanks!

Well, you can check the achievment stats. The rarest is on 0.2%, so that or less.
Indeed less than that for sure
