Learn how to navigate The Watch in Nightingale, find Allan Quatermain, and acquire essential endgame crafting recipes and gear. Master T3 Essence grinding.
Congratulations on reaching The Watch! This area shifts the game to a third-person perspective and serves as an online shared player space for tackling difficult tasks. Your initial focus should be on continuing your quests. Eventually, you'll need to find Allan Quatermain, located upstairs in the main room. Completing his questline rewards you with epic gear.
After quests, you'll enter the endgame. The Watch houses Essence Traders who sell recipes for advanced crafting stations. These recipes cost 100 T3 Essence each, obtainable from vaults or Ascended Realms, with vaults being the more efficient source. Recipes for gear and tools are significantly more expensive, ranging from 1,100 to 1,300 T3 Essence, requiring substantial grinding in Ascended Realms or vaults. The current gear score cap is 260-270, though a visual bug can display higher scores.
Head up the stairs in the center of the tower to find Allan Quatermain.
