Ruined Vaults?

Post by Xmudder »

I keep finding ruined vaults, which I assume are ancient guardian vaults. I used to think this meant that someone else got there first, but I am finding them in places that I own and I don't think anyone else has been.

This also seems to be anew addition, can I get some further information?

I'm not seeing it either. Is the 'latest update' the maintenance update or are you talking about some other update? Can you just link the patch notes or tell us instead of being unnecessarily cryptic about it, trying to find answers is a pain in the ass on this topic

If you mean the ones that give you a message starting with "A terrible waste!" these are always empty and there just for flavour really.

The ruins themselves are a research location though with all research 1% and Ancient Knowledge 5%, so they're not completely useless.

Their locations are given to you along with some other more important ruins as part of the Shakturi story.
