More Athena Loot for Being a Higher Level in the Faction

    I got to level 20 in Athena, hoping to unlock a legend of the veil with better loot than normal (like a few more athena-based rewards). But it turned out that the voyage was the exact same as the previous ones. I know that it is possible to make better rewards with more rep (like the gold hoarder vaults) but I don’t know why it still has not happened for any Athena voyages. I am also trying to get the Athena kegs, but there’s really no voyage that allows you to get them guaranteed.

    I just really want Rare to add better loot for the people that need the better loot more than they used to.

    @memelicous22 Once you reach level 5 emissary grade, you receive the emissary quest consisting of 3 quests - Riddle map, Treasure map, Skeleton bounty. After completing them you will receive a treasure map (marked as one of those quest in the bottle ones). It will have 2 X marks the spot dig spots. One will contain Athena chest another one will contain keg of legendary gun powder.

    If you are grinding to level 30. I would do the Legend of the veil. Finish it. Sell (you will be guaranteed level 5). Pick up the new emissary quest (they should not be too far away). Lower and raise the flag. Put down another veil quest, and go do your emissary quest. After completing the 3 initial quests, if you feel like 2 extra items wont push you to level 5, do one part of the veil quest to get a veil stone and then go for the chest of legends.

    $$$

    P.S. Try to fight any skeleton ships you see on the way, pick up any tridents, stools, storage crates to boost your rep to 5.

    If you are doing veil only, it's not necessary as you will reach 5 regardless.

    I get at least one Athena Keg from Level 5 Emissary Voyages. There's also a chance of getting them with the new keg voyage you can buy from the Pirate Lord.

    @memelicous22 kids these days, the veil is the better loot. We had to level up athena by doing thieves haven runs with very low athena loot drop rate. Also had to sail uphill in both directions 😅

    Baaah, before that we had to level up by just handing in Athena chests. Was it almost hundred of the to get to level 10 (Max level)? No emissary bonus, no Thieves Haven runs. And yes, part of those missions were the animal collection and selling missions that you could NOT skip. (Not sure what happened when the timer ran out though.)
    You could later speed it up a little by doing Athena missions around the volcanoes.

    So yeah, its very easy nowadays to level up, with the emissary system, and the newer missions. That said, it would be nice with more options.

    (Also the fastest way to level up Athena, are the veil missions, they are very fast to complete and give the best progress.)
