"Guide to Completing the Feline Codpiece Map in Avowed"
Throughout your adventure in *Avowed*, you'll stumble upon various treasure maps that lead to exciting rewards, provided you can decipher their clues. The first map you're likely to encounter is the Intimidating Feline Codpiece Map, and here's a step-by-step guide on how to complete it in *Avowed*.
Where to Get the Intimidating Feline Codpiece Map in Avowed
Upon arriving at the Living Lands and meeting Garryck and potentially Ilora, you'll encounter your first set of merchants. One of them, Lynna, offers the "Treasure Map – Intimidating Feline Codpiece" for 115. Purchase this map to find it under the Documents section of your Journal in Paradis.
The map's text provides an intriguing backstory: "My husband spent a fortune on this stelgaer codpiece to spice things up in the bedroom. Now he’s dead on account of a weak heart. I want nothing to do with that tasteless (though brutally effective) garment, so I leave it to the gods to find a worthy bearer." This adds a rich layer of lore to your quest.
Where to Find the Intimidating Feline Codpiece Map’s Treasure in Avowed
Start your journey from the Gods’ Gate Beacon, located east of Paradis and north of the Southern Embrace on the map. Carefully navigate around the Yellowband Camp to avoid a challenging fight if you're not adequately leveled. Continue along the southern and eastern edges of the camp until you reach a fork in the road. Take the right path.
You'll soon come across a boarded-up area. Break the boards and open the chest on your left to claim your prize.
What the Intimidating Feline Codpiece Map Gives You
Inside the chest, you'll discover a variety of items including: Stelgaer’s Pride + 2, Golden Scelling (6), Silver Fenning (8), Common Arquebus, Bear Claw, Pelt (2), and Softwood Branch (2). The highlight is the Stelgaer’s Pride armor, which offers the following stats:
Armor Type | Stats | Abilities | Upgrade Requirements | Break Down | Weight |
Medium, Unique | 18% Damage Reduction, 9 Additional Damage Reduction, -35 Maximum Stamina, -30 Maximum Essence | Bloodied Fury: Cast Barbaric Shout when taking damage greater than 30% of your Maximum Health Lesser Relentless: +5% Stamina regeneration rate | Pelt (28), Paradisan Ladder (6) | Pelt (10), Paradisan Ladder (6) | 18 |
What Builds Should Use the Stelgaer’s Pride Armor?
Given that you can acquire the Stelgaer’s Pride Armor early in *Avowed*—as it's linked to the first treasure map you can obtain—it's an excellent choice for early-game builds, particularly for those focusing on physical combat. I utilized it effectively in my spellsword build, finding it quite beneficial during the initial stages of the game.
And that's how you successfully complete the Intimidating Feline Codpiece map in *Avowed*. Happy adventuring!
