    Eye of Lathander

    It has a chance to appear in arcane coffers if you use an admantine gauntlet.

    Eye of Lathander as dardove mentioned, arcane chest drop with addy gauntlet.

    It's a BoP drop, so none on AH for you to purchase.

    He told you "Eye of Lathander". Yes, I think there are a few available in the Auction House
    They are bind on pickup.

    . . . Arcane Coffers are similar to the Delve Chests. They are white and hover above the ground and are located at the end of the three Lairs in the Dread Ring; the Dread Spire, the Death Forge, and the Phantasmal Fortress. You'll need a special adamantine gauntlet that you can unlock through the Dread Ring Campaign screen and then once unlocked, you can "forge" one per day at the anvil in the beginning area of the Dread Ring area. You need to be level 60 to unlock the Dread Ring zone. Go talk to Sergeant Knox in Protector's Enclave to begin the Dread Ring content once you've reached level 60. It's started much like Sharandar is.

    Good luck grinding. I must say I feel quite bored on boon/grinding in expansions. Ok if you have 1 max level character that is not so bad. However I got 3 max level characters. In additions when Sharandar was released it took a very long time before I understood that boons exist in this game and I started Sharandar months after that release.

    I did not mean this as negative feeback only. I do like that Valindras Tower and Castle Malabog Dungeons are added to the game. Also positive feedback on Sharandar I liked the beautiful designed areas and to fight feminine Witches.

    In Dread Ring I like the 3 SOLO Dungeons. Dread Ring is also much faster progression then to unlock all boons in Sharandar. Lol none of my characters have unlocked all boons in Sharandar though my main has finished Dread Ring. Finally the Ranger class and additional Paragon path in second expansion was very nice.

    Well that said I am very HAPPY that next big update likely will be for PvP(though it could be mixed zone compare Gauntlgrym). This game certainly do not need any new expansion with boons any time soon. I did not mean never, but I hope next big update if mainly for PvP. I also give my thanks to Cryptic and Perfect World for a great game.

    They're in the Dread Ring lairs. You need to make a gauntlet to open them.

    You do the Dread Ring Campaign Missions and eventually you will earn enough stuff to forge one of several Gauntlets that will allow you to open a special chest in the three Lairs (Dread Spire, Phantasmal Fortress, Death Forge, if I remember correctly) once a day. The better the Gauntlet the better the chances that you will get something good. Although, even with the best one those odd are terrible.
    Personally, my strategy is to get the Gauntlets made up before I worry about anything else. That way, at least I have the chance at scoring an Artifact while I grind out my Boons. Your Mileage May Vary.

Blink your eyes, and the world you see next did not exist when you closed them. Therefore, he said, the only appropriate state of the mind is surprise. The only appropriate state of the heart is joy. The sky you see now, you have never seen before. The perfect moment is now. Be glad of it.' Terry Pratchet The Thief Of Time

    A quick way to get Adamantine Gauntlets is to purchase Thayan Relic Fragments from the Auction House and trade them in for Bags of Thayan Treasures. They give 15 Vanguard Scrips and 5 Thayan Scrolls for each. Also helps with leveling up, but you still need to do the Daily Lair Quest for the Thayan Cipher. So it takes less than a week with this method compared to other methods.

    There seems to be some problems with the Gauntlet projects. The Gauntlets are available after you start the project and do a map change instead of after you finish the project. So it is possible to get 2 Adamantine Gauntlets before you finish the Adamantine Gauntlets project.

    KoC,

    When you are level 60 (if you're not already) see Sgt Knox in Protectors Enclave.
    He will give you a few missions.. One to see someone about Sharandar, another to see someone about an artifact, one to see the Protector for dailies, and one to go to the Dread Ring.

    Once you begin these chains, it all just falls into place.

    You can't do the Dread Ring and miss the chance to make the gauntlet. It's in your face. So just follow the chain, its really a lot simpler than you are probably thinking, and nothing to worry about missing. If you check with Sgt Knox, you can't possibly miss it unless you intend to.

    To any other fresh 60's or soon to be 60's.. Do the Sharandar, Dread Ring, and Artifact quest chains as soon as possible. There are boons (permanent stat boosts, that can be changed later with respecs) and other benefits that are huge. Example.. one boon gives like 250 crit.. which is more crit than is given by two rank 5 Azure Enchants. And you have this even with no gear on.

    So.. don't miss out.. but don't worry too much.. once you know they are out there.. it's pretty much impossible to miss them.

    Have fun!

    Edit- hahah.. 6 other posts appeared while I was typing this.. Did not intend to flog the dead horse.. heheh

    Arcane coffer

    what is an arcane coffer? and were do i obtain them

    "

    It's just a chest in a lair in addition to the regular one that is found there. If you have forged a gauntlet, you get to open it and probably get some minor reward. But if you do the mission chains to upgrade the gauntlet, you have a tiny chance to get much better rewards such as the artifact. It's a gravy thing. You might do it 999 times and never get it. Or you might get it really quick. You just do it and rejoice if it pans out.. ya just move on and have fun beating up bad guys if it doesn't. The regular chest that is always available is the reason you came anyway.. otherwise you are probably wasting your time.

    You might be lucky to get other good items also. Best items that I once was lucky to get was Blue Mark of Power which is needed when you upgrade an artifact from uncommon green ==> rare blue ==> epic purple ==> legendary orange.

    With Platiunum glove you also sometimes can get blue gems worth 1500 refinement points.
    My 3 max level characters only have Platinum glove though my main is near to get next Glove.

    If you get the 30 spark crate for 6 celestial coins you can get the 5th sharandar boon before the 5th dread boon. But yes I do prefer the dread campaign more than the sharandar one that felt more repetitive. Got 6 toons now, presuming there's another progression campaign I'm going to probably drop 4 of them.

    Dude you can use artifacts to refine your artifact. If you just tossed it you lost out on Massive refinement points.

    Looting Arcane Coffers since 60 hours into the game (earliest moment to get an Adamantine Gauntlet). Still no Artifact. I'm sick of those boring dungeons! This is one of the biggest Cryptic fails!

    Same here , RNG totally blows , no Portal hound or whatever it's called from Sharandar yet and no Artifact from dread ring , I don't even need the things ,it isn't like either would improve my character but I'm now completely OCD obsessed with getting them both -.-

    The Portal Hound is called the Blink Dog and can be found on the Exchange. Might save some irritation by just purchasing it off the Exchange instead of doing countless Lairs in Sharandar.

    Ok, for those who have the Eye of Lathander artifact, did any of you noticed that it needs a Lesser Mark of Power to upgrade from Blue to purple instead of a Lesser Mark of Union, since it is a Union artifact? Is this a bug?

    Nooooo! Drop your current Eye into the new Eye! Great RP there. Working this on all my BCR Skulls. Crazy good artifact leveling.
