Hildir quests in mapless run
Are they possible to do?
I've noticed that a direction is shown when you use Hildir's map table. Does it show you the direction to the first quest location or the closest one? Will it show you direction to other locations once you finish the first one?

I don't remember it showing me a direction for the dungeons. Was your arrow maybe showing wind direction?

There are three quests/dungeons for her. The locations are:
Smouldering tombs in Black Forest
Howling caverns in Mountains
Sealed tower in Plains


Up to three of each type of these locations will generate in each world. The spawning rules for each location type are as follows:
Smouldering tombs: Each 3000 meters apart, between 3000 - 8000 meters from the world center, at an altitude of at least 1 meter.
Howling caverns: Each 2000 meters apart, between 1000 - 8000 meters from the world center, at an altitude of at least 200 meters.
Sealed towers: Each 3000 meters apart, at an altitude of at least 8 meters.


While only the first of each mini boss will drop a quest chest, I think you can go to the other locations if you want to fight them again.

While possible to do without a map, it will be time consuming. The dungeons are visible (particularly the tower), but you'll need to do a lot of exploring.

Wait.... Hildir has a map table? Where? I must be blind.

Not an arrow. When you interact with her map table or boss location stone your character starts rotating and faces some new direction. It is the only clue you have in mapless mode and that's how I found the Elder altar after about a week-long search. :swdrusty:

It is a very small map table located right in front of her.

Being able to build those would be neat.

They need to add some type of wishbone for no map

The fact that there are 3 of each makes them pretty easy to find by accident.
Especially if playing on a server with multiple explorers.

And if playing with no map presumably the exploring and finding is the fun part so.

This is why I'd like to see the cartography table modified for no map runs, so you can look at the map only when you access the table. You'd still have to make roads and signs and try not to get lost, but you will have a decent chance to find the merchants and their quests.
