Kingsmarch Settlement Guide

The Kalguurans request your help with maintaining the settlement of Kingsmarch. To aid the Kalguurans in maintaining the settlement, you gather Gold and resources from Wraeclast and the Atlas of Worlds.

Gathering Services

Assisting the Kalguurans in maintaining the Settlement of Kingsmarch requires substantial resources. You assist in locating minerals, finding Gold and disenchanting items for Thaumaturgic Dust for various uses around Kingsmarch. As you hire workers for your tasks in Kingsmarch, they will reward you with the goods that they gather on your behalf. Workers do not work for free of course, so you need to pay them in Gold.

Mining

On your adventures you might find resources such as Crimson Iron, Orichalcum, Petrified Amber, Bismuth or Verisium.

Once you defeat the monsters guarding the ore, you are able to tag the location for Mining. An area that is tagged gets mined by workers you have hired in Kingsmarch.

Raulf, The Recruiter

Recruiting New Workers

Now that you have earned some Gold, you can hire workers at Raulf, The Recruiter.

Each worker has their own specialists and wage cost; choose workers that suit the type of labor you are trying to accomplish. You can hire and fire at any time to ensure you find the perfect set of workers. You reroll the list of hireable workers by spending Gold.

Mining Information Board

At the Mining Information Board, you can assign workers to process the Ore that you’ve retrieved. The workers continue their work in real time without requiring you to be logged in. The mining time can be reduced by hiring better workers, though these workers demand a higher wage.

Smelting

After mining your valuable ore, you want to smelt it into more valuable bars to send off as shipments. You get significantly more value out of smelted bars than you get from raw ore.

Disenchanting

At Rog, The Disenchanter, you establish Disenchanting. You gain Thaumaturgic Dust through Disenchanting Magic, Rare and Unique items. You use Thaumaturgic Dust for Recombinating items and sending in shipments.

Farming

With all of the new workers in your Settlement, you need to provide them with food. Every port has specific Foods that it pays extra for on Shipments.

Farm Plots

Select specific crops for your Farm Plots and include at least one of each type to ensure you can meet any shipment demand. Your workers handle all of the labor, so once you select your crop for a Farming Plot, it is grown automatically.

Town Map

At the Town Map, you manage all parts of the Settlement in one convenient location.

The Town Map shows you all the resources available to your Settlement. With the resources that you gather through mining and farming, you want to ship them to various harbours for unique rewards depending on the kind of port.

Shipping

Through shipping at the harbour, you are able to sell your goods to other port cities. Speaking to Tujen, The Harbourmaster gives you access to the Harbour to manage your shipments.

Select any ores, bars, dust or farming materials to be exchanged in this window. Shipments can be sent to various ports and each one has specific rewards based on the resources they were sent. They accept all types of resources, but have a preferred type that they are willing to pay more for.

Sending shipments does not come without risks, as sailors can be lost or shipments can be attacked by Pirates.

Shipment rewards contain most everything including Runegrafts, Tattoos, Unique Items, Currency, Maps and Heist Contracts.

As you prepare your shipments, take caution with how many items you send at once, as the risk meter grows based on the shipment size.

Hiring workers who specialize in Shipping decreases the odds of severe outcomes occurring.

Atlas Runners

Kingsmarch has 3 map devices that you can fill with up to 10 maps each for your Atlas Runners to complete. Atlas Runners have varying success based on the difficulty of the map and the skill of the runner.

Maps that are especially tough require you to have experienced Atlas Runners to get full completion on them. When sending an Atlas Runner on a difficult Map, you run the risk of losing them. An Atlas Runner who has failed the map provides partial rewards but does not return themselves.

Recombination

Isla also offers Recombination Services using Gold and Thaumaturgic Dust. You gain Thaumaturgic Dust by Disenchanting items at Rog. Check out the Recombinator Guide here.

Recombination allows you to combine items in an attempt to get the best modifiers from both onto a single item.

Currency Exchange Market

In the Settlement of Kingsmarch, Faustus offers you access to the Currency Exchange Market. This is where you use Gold to trade for any stackable items with other players, without the hassle of manually participating in said trades. Check out the guide to using the Currency Exchange Market here.

Black Market

Faustus also provides the Black Market, allowing you to purchase items for Gold. These items are generated with a random rarity and have better than normal modifiers. This is an excellent source for easy upgrades or as a starting point for crafting.

Respecialisation

With your excess Gold, you can now respec skill points through Faustus without using Orbs of Regret. The cost scales with level, so take advantage of this through early leveling.

Dangers to Your Settlement

As your settlement grows, it gains attention from those both good and bad. One of the 3 new bosses is Sasan, the Bandit Lord. As your settlement grows in size, Sasan takes your Atlas Runners hostage during the night for ransom.  You have the option to abandon your workers, pay the ransom or rescue them by defeating the boss.

Abandoning workers or shipments causes you to lose all resources, rewards and workers.

Summary

The Settlement of Kingsmarch allows many uses for your Gold in the Secrets of the Atlas League. Within Kingsmarch, you can:

• Speak to Faustus to access the Currency Exchange and Black Market, or to respec Passive Points.
• Use Atlas Runners to run maps for you at the Map Devices near Isla.
• Recombinate items at Isla using Thaumaturgic Dust.
• Recruit new workers through Raulf, the Recruiter.
• Exchange resources for currency and Runegrafts through Shipments at the Harbour.
• Assign workers to Mining, Farming and Smelting to provide resources for Shipments.

For any non-currency exchanges or bulk selling entire tabs, we recommend PoExchange. To learn more about PoExchange, check out our Bulk Selling Guide.
