Finding this is straightforward once you know where to look; the hard part is that the game never points you there.

Anything marked optional really is optional, so skip it without guilt. Most advice on this topic assumes you already know half the answer, which is exactly the problem. If something here stops matching what you see on screen, the game has probably changed a value in an update.

The short answer

There is one reliable route and several unreliable ones. Take the first, and bring what the list below suggests.

What to bring

The community figured most of this out through repetition, and the pattern has held up well. Most advice on this topic assumes you already know half the answer, which is exactly the problem.

Nothing below requires mods, paid tools or an account on some sketchy site. If you are short on time, the first section alone is usually enough. There is a fast way and a safe way, and they are not the same thing.

Getting there safely

  • Check the version you are running before following any step-by-step advice.
  • Back up your save if the game gives you the option.
  • Write down what you changed, so you can undo it if the result gets worse.
  • Restart fully after a change rather than trusting a quick reload.
  • Travel to the nearest fast-travel point before setting out on foot.

Mistakes worth avoiding

  • Skipping the preparation step because it looks boring, then repeating the hard part four times.
  • Following a guide written for an older version and assuming nothing moved.
  • Changing several settings at once, then having no idea which one helped.
  • Copying someone else's setup without checking that it fits your situation.

Frequently asked questions

Does this still work after the latest update?

Is the location randomised?

The general area is fixed in most versions; the exact placement within it can shift between saves.

Can I get it early?

Usually yes, with enough patience. Whether that is worth doing depends on how much the item actually helps at that stage.
