Avowed’s Treasure Maps each give you a visual clue to the location of some powerful gear. We’ll show you what each treasure is and where you can find it in Emerald Stair, the game’s second area.

How do Treasure Maps work in Avowed?
Each region has 3 Treasure Maps, each of which has a picture of a location with an X marking the spot where a Unique Item can be found.
The treasures themselves do not belong to any set and tend to be a bit more eccentric than the rest of the gear in the game, though they can still be worth using.
You can find Treasure Maps next to corpses or buy them from select Merchants for a paltry sum.
You do not need to acquire the Treasure Map to find the treasures themselves. If you’re thorough with your exploration, you can stumble upon the treasures without the map. Since you’re reading this guide, you don’t need to bother with the maps at all.
There is an Achievement, “Pathfinder”, for finding all the hidden treasures across the Living Lands.

Hjilde’s Handy Hide Treasure Overview
Hjilde’s Handy Hide is a Light Cuirass, meaning it offers +10% Damage Reduction and -20 Stamina / -20 Essence. It that improves your survivability by reducing elemental damage taken and increasing your HP, but improving survivability with Light Armor is a bit of an oxymoron. Wear Medium Armor if that’s what you want.
