Fremen Finds: where to find the three artifacts on the Smuggler's Run island
A Landsraad contract with no map markers: where the murals from the scout notes are, where the artifacts lie, where the Maas Kharet ambush is and where to deliver. With an island map.
A Landsraad Exploration contract: on the Smuggler's Run island you need to find three Fremen artifacts from your scouts' notes and deliver them. The game puts no map markers on these spots, only the notes. Below is a map of the island: where each mural from the notes is, where the artifact lies and where to bring it. Reward: 1,250 Landsraad points and 8,000 Solari.
Island map
The plan is built from the game levels; lighter means higher. Zoom with the wheel or two fingers, drag to move. Pick a step to see only its points; click a name to show it.
Scout hints
The game shows these pictures together with the hint text. This is what each place looks like.
The one we seek lies further along the eastern edge, carved into the cliff face overlooking the open desert.
On the island's southern edge, a wreck rests on the cliff above a fading Fremen mural.
At the heart of the island, hidden within a rocky bowl, a Fremen mural endures in the shadows.
Step by step
- Travel to Smuggler's Run. Pick the island on the Overland Map. You arrive on the sand south-west of it: .
- First artifact: the eastern edge. The note: "Follow the contours of the rock Para-east. A mural hides in the rock, ignore it. The one we seek lies further along…" The first mural on the way is the wrong one. The right one is , on the cliff face overlooking the open desert. The itself is in the ruins about 60 m north of it.
- Second artifact: the southern edge. The note: "On the island's southern edge, a wreck rests on the cliff above a fading Fremen mural." Look for the wreck on the cliff: is below it, and is about 50 m to the east. Once you take it, an hits you on the way out: six tier 6 Maas Kharet fighters. The contract doesn't ask you to kill them: you can head straight for the third site.
- Third artifact: the heart of the island. The note: "At the heart of the island, hidden within a rocky bowl, a Fremen mural endures in the shadows." is in the centre; is in the ruins in the crater, about 100 m south-east of it.
- Deliver the artifacts. Bring all three to the in the western part of the island and place them there.
Before you go
- The order can't be skipped. A mural and its artifact only appear at their own step. Until you have the first artifact, the second one simply isn't there, so go by the numbers.
- You can skip the ambush. There's no objective to kill the attackers: take the second artifact and leave. If you do fight, it's Maas Kharet Fanatics, an Oppressor and a Zealot, all tier 6.
- Exploration Houses give this contract: Argosaz, Hurata, Taligari, Varota and Wallach. Other contracts and House rewards are on the Landsraad page.
