My Loyal Shield Guide for Avowed
My Loyal Shield is a relatively easy treasure map to find in the world of Avowed. Unlike other maps that lead you to perilous locations, this one is straightforward and rewarding.
You can acquire this map from a merchant named Eberk, located outside the South Warden Tower. It’s conveniently positioned along the road as you enter Galawin’s Tusk. Despite the seemingly high price of 5,220 skeyt for the map, the shield you receive in return is well worth the investment.

If you find yourself short on funds, you can explore the tower and collect weapons to sell for extra coin to cover the cost of the map.

The map may lead you astray slightly with its location, but following the lava river northwest from the South Warden Tower will eventually bring you to the right spot. Look for the Ekida-slash-Godless ruin instead of the Outcast Tower Camp mentioned on the map.
Locating the Reward

Inside the tower, find the back entrance and locate a table in an empty room. The map’s callout box directs you to a button on the table, which triggers the opening of a secret door. Drop down into the chamber to claim your reward, the powerful tier-four Time’s Tarnish shield.
