The Search for the Mechanisms of the Ancients

TechnoMagic · published 7 Aug 2026, 10:48 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

The Ancients’ Mechanisms have once again appeared in the world of Elinor, making this the perfect opportunity to replenish your supplies! Begin your hunt for Tokens and Grimbold Coins, and don’t miss the chance to exchange them for items that will help you progress your medals.

Hilgor and Virkli invite all technomages of level 5 and above to set out in search of the Mechanisms of the Ancients! Each day, you will receive one random quest. You may reset the quest timer for a small fee and take on new assignments as many times as you wish. However, the reset cost increases with each use and is reset to its initial value every day at midnight. By using “Notes on the Ancients”, you can instantly replace your current quest with any other available quest from the list.

You can exchange your Ancient Tokens and Grimbold Coins at the Supply Center for items that grant progress toward various medals and achievements.


Among the new additions is the Golden Spirit Caster Token, which grants progress toward the “Spirit Caster” medal line, as well as your last chance to obtain the “18th Anniversary Cup” achievement!


The Elinor Bank is here to support all mechanism hunters! For every 300 Crystals in a single payment, you will receive a Chest of the Ancients as a gift!


You can receive quests and Ancients’ Chests from the Elinor Bank until the end of August 26th. All accepted quests must be completed, and all Ancient Tokens and Grimbold Coins must be exchanged by August 27th inclusive.

Join the hunt - the Mechanisms of the Ancients are waiting for you!
