Track down this tasteless treasure in Dawnshore for a tacky reward.

One of the first Avowed treasure maps you’re likely to come across is the Intimidating Feline Codpiece treasure map. This beautifully vague drawing had me scratching my head as I wandered the far reaches of Dawnshore, though it’s not too hard to reach once you know where to look.

This treasure map, which can be bought from Lynna at the Claviger’s Landing docks for just 100 coins, sends you to find a frustratingly generic mountain path to dig up a dead man’s tacky cat-themed armour.

The Intimidating Feline Codpiece treasure is located in a small cave to the far east of Dawnshore under Watcher’s Mirror, though you’ll have to take the long route around Paradis first to reach Yellowband Camp. This is because you need to approach from the south to get down into the ravine shown on the treasure map.

Here’s how to get there:

  1. From Claviger’s Landing, head north and loop around Paradis until you eventually reach Yellowband Camp—a bandit camp which is also home to a bounty target. Naturally, you’ll want to be careful to avoid a fight.
  2. Once you arrive at Yellowband Camp, head east until you reach the side of the ravine, where you’ll see a massive skeleton embedded in the cliff ahead of you. It’s hard to miss so you’ll know you’re in the right place.
  3. Turn north to climb up the ledge and continue along the rocky mountain path until you encounter a boarded-up room. Break the barricade with your weapon and you’ll be met by the treasure chest.

While you’re in the area, you can also find the Ondra’s Kiss flower required for another quest by turning south back at the gates out of Yellowband Camp. There's also the nearby Totem of Rightful Rulership fragment in Usher's Hand.

In return for your hard work tracking down this treasure map, you’ll be rewarded with the titular item—a rather frisky armour set called Stelgaer’s Pride. Though it’s certainly an interesting look, Stelgaer’s Pride is a strong medium armour set, especially if you find this item early. You’ll also be treated to various crafting materials and coins, so it’s worth finding whether you use the armour or not.

Rory has made the fatal error of playing way too many live service games at once, and somehow still finding time for everything in between. Sure, he’s an expert at Destiny 2, Call of Duty, and more, but at what cost? He’s even sunk 1,000 hours into The Elder Scrolls Online over the years. At least he put all those hours spent grinding challenges to good use over the years as a freelancer and guides editor. In his spare time, he’s also an avid video creator, often breaking down the environmental design of his favourite games. If you can’t track him down, he’s probably lost in a cave with a bunch of dwarves shouting “rock and stone” to no end.
