To reach this skyshard, you need to progress with the first Summerset main quest, The Queen’s Decree. At one point in this quest, you’ll be able to reach the Artaeum map and its solo dungeon, called Traitor’s Vault.
By far the fastest way to get from level 1 to level 5 is in the Artaeum zone. The zone is very small, that means you don’t have to run very far to get to the next digging site, that way you can repeat this process a lot faster, whereas on bigger maps you will have to travel further.
- Artaeum is the third largest island in the Summerset Isles. It is south of Summerset and Auridon. The only way to enter Artaeum for the first time is through the Keep of the Eleven Forces, or teleport to another player. The Psijic Order is based here.
- How do I get to Artaeum? In order to travel to Artaeum, you must complete the first Summerset main quest titled 'The Queen's Decree'. You can acquire this quest from Razum-dar just outside the town of Shimmerene.
- The Sload used the tangled nest of coral formations to get around, but they must have developed a way to harvest it as well. I can't even begin to imagine how. I can't even begin to imagine how. This coral feels hard as stone, and I can't imagine a Sload swinging a pick!
If you’ve already completed the quest, you’ll need to get back to the Keep of the Eleven Forces, located just south from Shimmerene. This is where the portal to Artaeum is now unlocked. Go through it and head left – west shortly after. You’ll soon reach a part of the compound where a blue light illuminates the entrance to the Traitor’s Vault. Go through it.

Based on the quantity of moldering ruins on Artaeum, once there must have been many more Monks of the Psijic Order than are present today. This hall looks to have been abandoned more recently than most.
In the delve, follow the path to your right at all times. This path will take you to the top floor, and the ruined part of the pathway, where a Bone Colossus defends the Skyshard that is looming over the center of the Traitor’s Vault.
