Me and a friend, along with my gf. Have found all 6 letters. Now we’re searching high and low for the Mad King’s tower.

Any leads? We’re thinking it’s in Ascalon. But not 100% sure. “Stories yet untold despite the tower that marks a spooky site. When humans flee their home of old, where they settle cannot be told” is on the book you recieve for finding all the ghosts.

Mad King was a ruler of Kryta in the 800ish AE era. Does that mean that humans fled to Ascalon, THEN returned to Kryta later around the GW2 story era?….My brain is about to turn to mush trying to find the place. Then again. Maybe its not even here yet. But i’ll not give up!

It may simply not be in the game yet. Remember that the Halloween content comes in four Acts; maybe the Mad King’s Tower is revealed in Act II?

That’s what I’m thinking. I just wish I had an answer on if I’m just searching for no reason lol. COULD be around. The patch was rather large. But again. Who knows besides Arenanet, the sneaky people…

Many humans fled from ascalon to kryta, fleeing the Charr after the searing. They lost a pretty annoying prince with bad aggro control in the process. The refugees that survived the trip from Ascalon established a settlement that endures to this day. Mostly. When it isn’t under siege by centaurs.

You get them for finding the ghosts in the clues. First page you get from a ghost right next to the NPC that gives you the scanner in LA.

I never saw the ghost and I scanned every frequency

I’m at the very same brick wall. I figured it would be somewhere in LA since the refugees headed there first.

I also thought about the Ascalon Settlement.

Anyone else have any leads on this?

I never saw the first ghost either… I just noticed a Talk notice popup that was nearby the other NPC and a crowd of people were clumped on top of it so I assumed it was important.

I didn’t even see that nor did I see a ghost so I’m assuming that I’m either blind or something is borked on Jade Quarry

So I read there’s a glitch on the first ghost. If someone is standing atop the suspicious point it won’t spawn.

Also an update on the second part of the scavenger hunt:


I checked the Ascalon Settlement pretty thoroughly. Thought for sure it’d be up by where the other ghosts are; no strong readings

So I guess we do have to wait until the second act is unveiled.
