Server: [SEA] Telsiai
Team name: Redrelle
Contents of this guide will tackle the following:
- Bounty Hunt
- Aether Gem
- The updated Remnants of Bernice Dungeon
Bounty Hunt
Bounty Hunt is a solo content that will be available once you reach Lv460.
You can start the Bounty Hunt from the Wanted Board NPC located in each town (Klaipeda, Orsha, Fedimian), and you need a Written Order.
Lv460 Written Orders can be farmed in the following maps:
- Ashaq Underground Prison 1F
- Ashaq Underground Prison 2F
- Ashaq Underground Prison Containment Area
And there are three types of Written Order:
- [Lv.460] Written Order - Klaipeda
- [Lv.460] Written Order - Orsha
- [Lv.460] Written Order - Fedimian
Written Orders can also be purchased at TP Shop.
To start, talk to the Wanted Board npc and give the Written Order. The destination map will be shown.
You just need to go on an adventure and arrive at the destination map within the time limit (30 minutes)… by walking.
Any kind of teleportation is unavailable when Bounty Hunt is in progress.

Route guide for your smooth adventure (credits to the creator):
Along the way, monsters will randomly spawn (and they will always spawn around you). You need to defeat these monsters to proceed with the next map. There’s a buff where you can see the monster count.
A boss is waiting for you in a random location once you arrive at the destination - you just need to find and defeat it. Note that you can also see the boss of other bounty hunters, you’ll know if it’s yours if you can hit it.
Rewards that you can obtain in Bounty Hunt are Goddess Token (Gabija), Breath of Power, Aether Gem Fragments, Arcanum Brewing Materials (by chance).
Time is gold and it is better if you can clear one hunt fast so you can do more. Some tips to increase your movement speed for faster hunting:
- Having a class with increase movement speed skills (like Plague Doctor and Cataphract)
- Botanic accessories
- Wind Runner boots
- Goddess Statue buff
- Miracle Seed buff
- Movement speed enchant (in hair accessory and armor enchantment)
Superior Written Order
This is a higher (?) version of written order. You can obtain this type of written order (Lv460) same as where to get the normal ones:
- Ashaq Underground Prison 1F
- Ashaq Underground Prison 2F
- Ashaq Underground Prison Containment Area
And there are also three types of Superior Written Order:
- [Lv.460] Superior Written Order - Klaipeda
- [Lv.460] Superior Written Order - Orsha
- [Lv.460] Superior Written Order - Fedimian
This is also available at TP Shop.
The difference is that the Wanted Slingers and Wanted Monster/Final Boss are “superior”, they are a bit harder.
A Demon Merchant NPC will also appear once for the entire hunt when using Superior Written Order.
Talk to it and it will give you three options:
Note that you need to finish your encounter with the Demon Merchant before you can proceed to the next area. Yes, you need to select one of the options.
Barter - Demon Merchant will ask for an item in exchange of [Lv.460] Aether Gem Catalyst and you need to give it to him to resolve the encounter. The items it asks can also be obtained as one of the rewards when you finish a Superior Written Order hunt.
You can succeed or fail in Barter by chance.
If it is successful, you will receive the Aether Gem Catalyst and encounter will be resolved.
If failed, two options will appear - Fight or Leave.
Fight - you can receive Aether Gem Catalyst by chance (O_O) once you defeat the Demon Merchant and encounter will be resolved.
Leave - Demon Merchant disappears and encounter will be resolved.
Fight - You will fight with the Demon Merchant and you can receive Aether Gem Catalyst by chance once you defeat it.
Demon Merchant when you select Fight
Persuade - Three options will appear. Each option has 50% chance to resolve the Demon Merchant encounter and 50% chance of fighting the Demon Merchant.
Rewards you can get when using Superior Written Order:
Arcanum Brewing Materials can also be obtained by chance.
You will also get a random barter item - the item that you can exchange at Demon Merchant NPC during Barter.
Lv480 Bounty Hunt
You may do this once you reached Lv480.
It is almost the same as Lv460 Bounty Hunt, only few differences:
Requirement
You need to have a Gear Score of 15,000 before you can do Lv480 Bounty Hunt.
Written Orders
- Normal [Lv.480] Written Order can be purchased from the Goddess Token (Vakarine) Shop.
- [Lv.480] Superior Written Order can be obtained by chance when hunting the monsters in Episode 14-2.
Wanted Monsters
In Lv480 Bounty Hunt, the wanted monsters will be boss monsters (one boss monster for normal bounty hunt, more than one boss monster for superior bounty hunt).
Rewards

Mounts
Mounts are mainly used in casual contents and they cannot be used in battles unlike companions. They have special effects that are useful, some includes effects for bounty hunt. You can use them via ‘Summon Mount’ skill in Skills and Attributes (F3) > Common.
There are mounts that you can get for free by doing achievement quests and there are also premium mounts which can be bought by TP. You can find the complete list here if you are interested: ToS Mounts
Aether Gem
You can get one Aether Gem of your choice when you right-click 20 pieces of Aether Gem Fragments.
Types of Aether Gem:
- [Lv.460] Aether Gem - STR
- [Lv.460] Aether Gem - INT
- [Lv.460] Aether Gem - DEX
- [Lv.460] Aether Gem - SPR
- [Lv.460] Aether Gem - CON
Aether Gem increases the stat by 2 per gem level. Maximum level of a Lv460 Aether Gem is Lv120.
You can enhance Aether Gems by doing Remnants of Bernice Dungeon.
Equip your Aether Gem in Goddess Equipment Management > Socket Management. You need an Aether Gem Socket Key to open the socket.
Aether Gems can only be equipped in weapons (main and sub). You need to open the weapon’s two normal sockets before you can unlock the Aether Gem socket.
The socket key is also one of the rewards (Rank S and A) when you do Bounty Hunt. It also has a recipe and is available in Gabija Shop.
Right-click the crafted key to make it a reusable key.
Lv480 Aether Gem
You may transfer the level of your [Lv460] Aether Gem to a Lv480 one once the Lv460 gem reached its max level (Lv120).
You may do this at Pyromancer Master NPC and select Transfer Aether Gem Enhancement Level.
Note:
- You can transfer it to a Lv480 aether gem with a different stat (example: you can transfer the level of a [Lv460] Aether Gem - STR to a [Lv480] Aether Gem - INT).
- The [Lv460] gem will be destroyed upon level transfer.
- There will be no decrease on the enhancement level once transferred.
Lv480 Aether Gem works just the same as a Lv460 one:
- Consume 20 [Lv480] Aether Gem Fragment to select one [Lv480] Aether Gem of your choice.
- [Lv480] Aether Gem Catalyst is also available and can be obtained (by chance) when you do barter at [Lv480] Superior Bounty Hunt.
- Use [Lv480] Aether Gem Socket Key to open the socket on your Lv480 weapons. This can be obtained by chance at Lv480 Bounty Hunt and recipe is also available at Goddess Token (Vakarine) Shop.
- Same way of leveling up - via Remnants of Bernice Dungeon.
Lv500 Aether Gem
You may transfer the level of your [Lv480] Aether Gem to a Lv500 one once the Lv480 gem reached its max level (Lv150). Same way on how to transfer - at Pyromancer Master NPC.
To obtain a Lv500 Aether Gem, you buy the fragment at Goddess Token (Lada) Shop.
- Consume 1 [Lv500] Aether Gem Fragment (the one available in Lada Shop) to select one [Lv500] Aether Gem of your choice.
-
[Lv500] Aether Gem Catalyst is also available (in Leticia’s secret cube
)
- Use [Lv500] Aether Gem Socket Key to open the socket on your Lv500 weapons. The recipe is available at Goddess Token (Lada) Shop.
- Same way of leveling up - via Remnants of Bernice Dungeon.
Remnants of Bernice Dungeon
You can run this dungeon weekly. Enter the dungeon via Content Status Board (F10).
When entering, you need to select the stage where you want to start.
Your highest cleared stage will be saved (and it will not reset every week).
You just need to kill all the monsters within the 3-minute time limit.
When you successfully finished the stage, a Kupole NPC will appear where you can enhance your Aether Gem.
You can enhance an equipped or unequipped aether gem.
You can enhance up to 5 times only. To enhance more, you can purchase one entry vouchers in Mercenary Badge Shop and enter again.
Aether Gem Catalyst can also be used to increase the maximum enhance count by 5.
Success rate of enhancement depends on the level of Aether Gem and the cleared stage. As for my screenshot, the gap between my gem level (15) and the cleared stage (26) is above 10 so there’s 100% success rate.
I compute my entry stage level by:
(Gem level + 5) + 10 (so that it will be 100% success rate for all 5 tries)
Nothing will happen if enhancement fails (your gem will not break or disappear). There is also no fee when enhancing.
If you are into the rankings, it is set based on the following criteria:
Source: Tree of Savior
Same rewards are given as the old Remnants of Bernice Dungeon:
- Mercenary Badges when you do the dungeon (higher stage cleared gives more badges)
- Dimensional Incense Burner for the top 3 in each class
Weekly reset for this dungeon is Monday at 6AM (server time), and you can receive the rewards every Monday at 9AM (server time).
Note that you cannot enter the dungeon on every monday at 5AM to 6AM (server time).
