Bolder Fortunes is a triumph for finding all ten Ascendant chests in the Dreaming City while the curse is "growing stronger" (the middle phase of the weekly curse cycle).
How to complete
- Wait for the Dreaming City curse to be in its medium (growing stronger) phase. Each phase has its own chest set and its own triumph: Hidden Riches (weak), Bolder Fortunes (medium) and War Chests (strong). If you miss the week you must wait for the cycle to come round again.
- Consume a Tincture of Queensfoil to gain the Ascendance buff. Without it the invisible platforms leading to the chests do not appear and the chests cannot be opened.
- The buff lasts about 30 minutes, so gather several Tinctures first. Each chest contains another Tincture.
- Open one chest in each of the ten areas: Spine of Keres, The Confluence, Divalian Mists, Bay of Drowned Wishes, Rheasilvia, Chamber of Starlight, Harbinger's Seclude, The Strand, Aphelion's Rest and Gardens of Esila. Most require platforming over the Ascendant platforms. Follow a location video if you get stuck.
Notes
- Part of the Forsaken Dreaming City content; the Tinctures also prepare you for the Ascendant Challenge and the Last Wish raid.
- Sources describe the chests as rewarding Dark Fragments; the exact reward attached to this triumph was not confirmed by the sources opened. The triumph's seal/category was not confirmed either.
- The sources are from the Forsaken era; the weekly curse rotation may have changed since.
