Go to
/way 65.66 26.71
then go downstairs in the catacomb and click the book. Then go up again and out and to
/way 65.91 28.96
where Emil will then spawn and be ready to get escorted out. Really was not clear to me from the quest that he isn't down in the catacomb where the book is and that you have to go up again.

Quest is a bit bugged at the end where you face Sinkeeper Mateo and you fight his two goons, then after Emil continues on but also repeats some phrases that restart the encounter but you can safely skip it and run.

Description

Watcher Emil is my trusted overseer of the catacombs. Before I was thrown into the Maw, half of the mirror was entrusted to him. I had him stationed at the Catacombs of Regret. But I do not know where in the sprawl he is. There is a guard station near the entrance to the catacombs. Start the search there. There is an officer who can help us, I--I can't remember who. That is, provided they survived this whole mess. You must find Emil at once. We may not have much time.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The CuratorLevel 60

    I tasked the Curator with reacquiring the Medallion of Avarice. However, since her return from the Maw, her mind has become... a bit chaotic. Do be kind, will you? I ask that you lend her assistance in her search. She is at the Crypt of the Forgotten.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Combing the CatacombsLevel 60

    When the anima drought began, our defenses began to fail. Our guards, weakened by the lack of anima, became overrun as the sinstones this land is built upon rose up around us. Not to mention the manifestations of the souls who can no longer be tended to are running wild.

The storyline at a glance

Avarice has 12 steps, from Medallion of Avarice to Return to Sinfall.

Maps its steps are placed on (steps per map): Revendreth (11), Sinfall (1).
