But Jakes doesnt exist in the startingarea anymore. she's is in the basecamp and i can buy the artifact notes from her.
Already have the goblet. But the protodrakes doesnt drop that suppy bag and i havent found any other letters or notes in dirt or expeditionspacks and i opened hundrets! do i need the quest running true? and how can i get it, if the drakes doesnt drop that bag?ty
Cataloger Jakes, at some point in the campaign, will move to the Dragonscale Basecamp. If she's there, it probably means you completed this quest on another character.

Description
<Cataloger Jakes quickly flips through her own supply bag and pulls out a freshly drawn map.> One of our archeologists just reported some new findings in regards to a lost artifact, suspected to be in this area. If you'll donate those supplies to fund the archeologist's next expedition, you can have this map that points to a nearby treasure.
